I just spent 2 week in the Hospital . On April 12 I was working outside cutting some branches to get them higher from the fence and the bow saw popped back sending me off balance and off the ladder . I broke my left leg at the ankle about as bad as you can get the EMT's said a limb treating injury . The bones from my leg and ankle were outside the skin (lots of blood) a 45 minute ride to trauma center the test after test and surgery for 3 hours starting at 5 pm . I had a second surgery on April 25 again 3 or 4 hours .
While filling out a application for a new Doctor the area that say sex read F=female M=male and a third box that said transgender that my friends was a woo-hoo moment . A small step in the right direction , very happy to share this :-) HUGS

I watch 20/20 about Jazz ,what a brave and very beautiful young lady. She is smart beyond her years and OH so lucky to have parents who are open minded enough to allow her to live the way she should with love and support.She is on blockers at age 12 and has zero "T" so she will never get a deep voice or HAIR
We need more stories like Jaz
A link to 20/20 was posted yesterday(I don't know how to do a link)
Hugs & Kissses to all :-)

We are going to get a hurricane in Florida in the next 2 days , they say it will go west of the stae till the northern panhandle. The Repulican convention is this week and this has been thier fear since they started to plan the event and the convention center is in the flood zone A as it is only about 200 feet or so from the water at 4ft elevation and they are exspecting a 5ft storm surge (how well can you swim). I will post after the storm passes and let you know how we make out, all depends on how far off shore it will stay
Yesterday a post was list with a link to a story about a young transgender and what's in a name.
A little fun post of did your parents have a girls name pick out if you where born a girl ? Not to long ago parents didn't know the sex of a baby till they made the grand entrance onto this world.
That being said I would have been ROMA SUE instaed of RICHARD STEVEN ,Don't ask where or how they got ROMA .
Write a responce with the name you would have had if you know it , just for fun
LOVE EVERYBODY -- RICHIE2
About a month ago an Air Boat Captain on a tour with a family wanted to show a alligator up close so he held out a fish to feed the Gator with is illegally low and behold the 9 foot gator jump up and showed to tourist how to bite the hand that feeds you. The gator was found and the hand was found but sadly the captain is now called captain hook.This past Friday he was arrested for illegally feeding the gator with a $1000.00 bond ,talk about wierd justice.
As some of you know I broke my arm in April and I am still in a cast , my last rant I said whoa is me BUT I saw a news clip about a guy who swam the Chesapeake Bay who was born with no arms or legs or the girl in Goergia who lost both legs and both hands to the flesh eating virus.
We also can not forget all the boys & girls that are born in the wrong body and deal with that everyday.
The fact that I have a temporary problem doesn't look so bad , I am going to be 64 in October and still have all my hair SO LIFE IS GOOD
Just got back from the doctor and I have another cast with he said is normal after the repair. The good part is the staples are out with is why Ineeded to wait with the cast, the bad news is 3 more week of a full long arm cast
WHOA IS ME, I am getting so tired of this as it has been going on since April.
Oh well keep smiling be happy
LOVE TO ALL AT BCTS -- RICHIE2
I was looking for stories to read from my archived story collection and pulled out the box with The Proffessor stories after reading others I got to the Deity Arms series of stories. The intro says that this is an open universe and can be franchised anywhere in the world(not just NYC),So it might be fun for a country club in Ravenscrest or something in the Center universe maybe even a story from our friends across the pond or down under.
It would be nice to see a fun little universe come back to life.
I hope 1 of the new authors can come up with a story
Went to the Orthopaedic doctor for a follow up and it seem my arm is still broken or broken again . He drop a bomb on me by telling me we will see each other in the O. R. tommorrow morning bright and early so I am getting more nuts and bolts in my body.I'll let you all know I'm O K on Thursday as I am going to sleep most of the day after I come home
Love You All HUGS RICHIE
