What a start to the day

So I'm at an age where I need to go to the toilet 3 times a night, I'm sure the beers last night probably didn't help.. I also thought $35 worth of cocktails would help the wife to sleep, but she woke every time people walked past and when the car did a burnout down the road.


Anyway, 6am and when Miss 16 went to her friends to get ready for a party last night, she mentioned she was taking her makeup, forgot to mention "also quite a few of Rachels makeup".
My foundation is safe from her, and I found a mascara under the bed - so it's enough for me (my lipstick is safe in my handbag).


7.30am was coffee time at McDonalds, an attractive older woman walks in with family, I say attractive as she was wearing a tight red shoe string top over a large chest, looked like my sporty top, and sports leggings, I also have a pair. So basically she was wearing my "plan B" outfit and looking hot in it.
Unfortunately I was wearing a nice dark red top, and after taking a photo of me, realized how muscly  my arms look.
Still, the shops were starting to open.


Mitre 10, and time to check out some hardware for my R&D project, it's amazing how a $2 part can be used as a $150 part the alternative rig uses.


8.30am and time for a cup of tea and read of the newspaper at Syliva Park shopping complex. I had to take my muscly looking arms in to the ladies toilet once the shops opened before doing some serious window shopping -


Tried on 12 different outfits at different clothing shops, fell in love with 2.
One was a electric blue dress ($40), fitted like a glove to every curve and bump.
Dress number 2 was a $30 leopard print shoe string dress with ruffled hip - with my D cup forms this looked absolutely fabulous and while I strutted around the change area big mirror, while other people were  waiting, I walked out of the shop without spending a cent.


I really, really want that leopard dress -hopefully it will still be there next pay day.

Summer fun

Left home 6.30am early, before the Korean homestays wake up.
Decided to leave fully dressed to my car parked out the front of the house.
Felt lazy and 1/2 asleep, so a quick layer of foundation, a flick of mascara, and a lick of lipstick.
Bra, g-string, dress and I'm on my way

7am coffee at my ususal McDonalds, father and blond teen daughter customer are Sunday breakfast regulars.

8am sees me in Auckland city, checking out the boats. While I don't mind rich boat owners, I'm slightly impressed they would need a helicopter as well.

















9am and I'm at Mission Bay, one of Auckland most popular "to be seen at" beaches and enjoyed the views as 2 attractive young ladies did yoga and a few others were in bikinis just finishing a swim.
 
Fountain, volcano, even a lighthouse all in one photo
 














It's not long, before I need another coffee, read the news paper, discover our gay / transgender festival is starting next week and runs until the end of Feb. - I'm not really in to that sort of stuff, but wife wants to see the big parade.
I might have outed myself, as about 200 people including spectators gathered for the start of a swimming race. I had quite a lot of nice people smiling at me.
Now if only I had my daughters camera, all these photos would be a lot better

Rock climbing

I so forgot how much fun it is, tempted to skinny up and build some shoulders and biceps. 4 hours latter and feeling good.

Saturday, and another car safety check due

8.30am - Visited a Hospice shop.
Normally I prefer to buy new, but I needed to entertain myself for 30 minutes and in the process of trying on about 6 outfits, bought myself a $4 blue top and $4 blue skirt.

In NZ, we need to have a safety check on our vehicles every 6 months, which include a trip to an approved mechanic who checks tyre tread, brakes, seatbelts, steering etc.
Mechanics open at 9am and I was the second car on the block.
Okay, my car is good, but I still like to wear my slinky black skirt and a nice top in the hope of encouraging the mechanic not to find any faults (I don't think it works, but I still like wearing slinky skirts).
Yes I know you saw the same outfit in my previous post (red lace top which I really like)


After the checkup, I get to a 10am brunch with my best friend Josie, who today was wearing an extremely bum hugging wet look tight black, knee length classy skirt, and looking very nice (if only my body was as slim and tall). Did I mention how nice, elegant and sexy she looked, I wonder if I can have leg extensions.

Anyway after a lovely brunch, a good chat, it was time to go home and do chores, in my new $8 hospice outfit. which takes about 25 seconds to remove as my daughters friend walks up the drive. I think I was partially spotted doing the dishes, but not something I can un-do if she did see me.

Fridays coffee

Last free day before Monday, when it will be back to work.

Excited about going out, I woke up at 6.45am (actually that's a sleep in for me).
Got dressed, with C cup breast forms and cleaned the kitchen.
Normally I see the neighbours clearing their mail and wave, but I had finished the kitchen and was on crossdressers.com when they checked their mail.

Painted my nails a colour that closely matched my top, didn't like it and removed the nail polish and tried another lighter colour, nope - removed that colour as well and decided on just a gloss coat of nail polish, not that I'm fussy or anything.

By 9am I had had enough of my C cups and swapped for my pushup bra, and 15 minutes later Miss 14 woke and was hanging around soon followed by wife requesting a morning coffee.

Morning coffee with Josie was set for 10.30, which is a bit of a rush hour for the shop. The staff knew my order before I got to the till, but I find for some reason shop staff do remember me (probably because I happy and smile a lot - or maybe my short skirts)

Pleasant morning with Josie, and while chatting about babies, children, clothes and planetary orbits, I realized I'd never really looked at the maths behind a slingshot (should I care to? I'm unsure as Miss 16 wants me to paint her room now).

Columbus Coffee, cake and good company
