Todays the last day of school and so starting tomorrow Absaroka will be taking a bit of vacation. The kids will be home and this is something I do in private. Also may not be posting here as much although I will some since they both sleep much later than I do.
Thought about it a bit today. Wore a sexy outfit, something I don't normally do anymore. A lacy purple top over my one remaining bustier and then a black pencil skirt. It felt really nice and I thought about how I will miss this. On the other hand the Northeast has made the transition from too cold to too hot with no fuss at all and so I won't be wearing much of anything unless the AC is on. And I hate closing the windows and turning on the AC. Even alone I wouldn't be wearing much besides a slip and panties if that. Or maybe a halter top...
But all lifes sacrifices should be so hard.

I give up a couple months playing dress up to be with my kids. Actually I am thinking a lot more about life at home with two teenage girls. Now that is a challenge for any father!
Keep you all informed and I will still be here, albeit en homme.
Absaroka (it's a unisex name anyway)

Good luck, honey!
I know from experience that raising one daughter was almost more than I could handle, two WOW!!!! yes they are a "pack" but you are still their father and their dad. Why not practice some hints like finding out how they feel about gays, lesbians, then get into TS and TG just to see if your parenting took!!
Look forward to hearing from you and again, good luck I am sure they are great kids!

My sympathies, Ab on the two daughters. Been there and lived to tell about it. Don't want to repeat it however. But good news they turn human around 20.

Actually the 16 year old already shows very strong signs of being human.
We have lots of gay friends and have tried very hard to have this be presented as something completely unremarkable. We have also tried to be the same way concerning the very few trans sexuals we have had any contact with. Although the older one of course has to deal with peer pressure and that sort of thing she is pretty accepting. Talks about her male platonic friends as being "gay to her" meaning that they aren't sexually attracted to her although knowing teenage boys as I do....say no more. She is a knock out. She and her girlfriends have one boy friend that they dress up in their clothes pretty regularly and do not make a secret of it. We have joked sometimes about perhaps someday he'll be explaining to his wife that the origins of his CDing (if he actually is one and not just being accomodating) came from his friends. Or that it's okay for him to walk around at night in drab but not en femme. So I think that she'll be okay although of course everything is different with your father and at age 16 she has enough other stuff to worry about. She was of course totally shocked at the idea that her mother and I have ever had sex although we have approached this with her need to know ends with the knowledge that she was not adopted. Isn't there a law or something saying people over age 30 can't have sex? If not, shouldn't there be one?
Anyway I am not worried about her. My difficulties have alway centered on how much to share with my wife and reading all the disasters here has mostly reinforced my thoughts on caution. My therapist, who I am very open about CDing with, has somewhat reinforced those ideas.
The younger one seems to have lost the power of speech around adults. I am not sure what she thinks about much of anything although it is clear that the universe is a deeply unjust place, inflicting her with parents who are so uncool as to actually exist. I am hoping this will pass in a few years: I remember it in her older sister althought she could never keep from talking to us-she liked to argue too much.
