Hope you're off to a great new year

Ever had a holiday, where you do more work than when your at work - welcome to my world.

First job was pealing back the roof and replacing the valley. In the 1960's it didn't rain hard and putting a waterproof membrane between the timber and cement roof tiles was not a thing. Times have changed with global warming and while I fitted the new valley during a nice day, the downpour at 1am the following day was enough to flood my basement (but not enough to leak in the roof).

Second job was removing the carpet from the basement after the flood, dry it over 2 days and then refit it. I think this will be a regular Christmas activity. I've just purchased 2 more shelving racks and put the almost full wall of shelving on brick pavers, this will allow my sump pump to kick in before the metal shelving gets wet during the next rain storm.

Today I bought a new bench top oven and just finished re-configuring the kitchen bench layout from a U shape to an L shape. Looks nice, twice as much bench room and if wife isn't happy in a month, I'll switch it back again.

As to Crossdressing (I mean that's why your here), I've had a few outings.

So I'm relaxing at Bunnings waiting for a coffee and a young mum and 3 year old sit at the next table. The 3 year old looks at me and asks his mum "Is that a man?"

The young mum looks my way with a horrified expression not knowing what to say. So I told the boy, "Yes, I'm a man" much to the relief of the mum, who just being let off the hook, smiled at me, so I told her "Sometimes even I get confused"

The last thing we should be doing is making ourselves, with our own ego, be misunderstood, scary and unapproachable.

Otherwise it's been a fun week
