Blondes are incapable of decoding ciphers :-)

Karen, Did you ever imagine that three little dots could generate so much amusement (You left out the punctuation Bard Characters = Punctuation)

Well, hopefully the nail salon was open. Priorities don't you know.

They were open, got an many, no color as per instructions for surgery and pedi in pink with flowers

Lovely!

I am but every once in a while stare at the salmon in the fridge but will not give in

Think of the salmon as part of your post-op celebration! LOL!!

Oh My..lol...I send my prayers Karen!!!!

Is it chocolate?

French vanilla :-)

Peanutbutter Chocolate -- Resisting the urge will only lead to a binge. BREAK OUT THE SPOONS ALREADY!

I saw this name in the list of users online and thought, "I've never seen that name before." Clikked on the name and found it was you! WTG. "Payne's" easier to spell anyway... :lol:

I asked Lori to change it as I am beginning my formal name change as of yesterday.

Congratulations, Karen! :)

Karen, my New Year's Resolution is to find love in 2015. Feel it is going to be a great year!

May we both find love in 2015!

Yay! :D

Woohoo!

Rock On !

Very posh. Looking forward to what I know will be a good read.

Loved it!

Thank you :-)

Very good news. Will be thinking of you and prayin' for ya !

Im new on here and been reading your blog, I have not went that far back to answer my question. whats this surgery for? I wish you the best....

Dear Jls, Karen's surgery is for Sex Reassignment Surgery (SRS).

Dear Karen,

Always preferred my surgeries first thing in the morning, when the surgeon is fresh! My nightmare is a tired surgeon . .

Karen.

Great news. Thank You for your abundant candor and STELLAR good cheer !

I would expect nothing less from our number one blogger here on the guide.

My compliments and appreciation. Truly instructional and inspirational.

I try to put things out there that I hope is useful and with that thanks for the compliment

Its very helpful, Glad to hear..

That is a first! Have heard of patients sending flowers, chocolates and thank you cards to a nursing station, but never heard of nurses sending a card to a patient!

I can understand why they might do that. They were the folks that were there when you stepped off into a new world.

All I can say is they connected with me ;-)

That's fantastic! Hope tomorrow is even better !

So far it is :-)

Know that feeling!

It's the little things !

Enjoying a clean apartment!

Yes it is the little things :-)

NO sneaking out after lights out girls !

LOL

I remember those days. Funny, all the boys ALWAYS seem to be "camping" out on the same night! Just a coincidence I suppose

SNAP!

What a lot of trans people with no breast don't realize is that once you have breast there is an area that is extremely difficult to shave cleanly. This is my objective, not to get rid of all hairs although I would not mind them gone but instead to rid myself of those hairs in the hard to reach area. If one misses them over the course of a week they are easy to see, seems like they grow overnight.

Well Done.  

So, hows the "double-tap" going?  Have a great Holiday !  

For me the holidays begin tomorrow, hopefully will be not much different than other years, relaxing, no drama from anyone.

Karen, have wonderful memories of my mother's tea cup collection and the little tea set I had as a little girl.

So do I with my Grand Mother who was born at the turn of the last century.

Karen, you look like my best friend when I was attending college!

Karen, you're a heart breaker!

It is getting close! :)

Pleasant journey, there AND back! Best Wishes KAREN !

Have a great week then! and we'll keep prayin' for ya !

Karen, you are in my thoughts and prayers. You are a very courageous woman!

WTG, Karen. =)

Rock On Karen!
