Hi girls ,

I am having trouble at the moment trying to stay interested , I planned a photosession for today but I just cant be bothered at the moment.
I may change my mind later in the day but my mind is elsewhere at the moment.

I will be on holiday throughout most of August in sunny Queensland and I'm really looking forward to getting away from Melbourne , this is occupying my thoughts at present.

I have decided to give myself one week to finish off any CD activities and then take a long break from all CD activities including this forum.

I will be here for this week only , then I will return in early September hopefully with my batteries re-charged.

Hi Merinda,

Good for you!

Please don't misunderstand. I'll miss you horribly, but I think you're very smart to take a break if you want to take one. We'll be here when you decide it's time to come back.

Have fun out there!

Hi Merinda--
Battery charging is very important. Whatever it takes...we'll see you when you get back. Tough to plan a photo shoot ahead of time, and just not have the interest and/or time to focus, and see it through.

I've had more than a few times where I looked forward to dressing and going out that night, and by the time nightime came, I was too tired, distracted, or whatever to do it. Don't like that, and now I try to make sure I keep such plans at a "maybe" level, and not let expectations get too high.

But maybe you did that in this case, too.

See you in September!

Hi Merinda !

I agree 100% with other girls here. During my 15 year CDing I´ve learned not to dress from force of habit. Nowadays I try not to think femme things too much ( I mean all the time

) and dress if I feel the urge. Sometimes I also take a 2 week break from CDing and do something else. One thing´s for sure, the urge always comes back and it´s so wonderful to feel that "tingle" inside when you can´t wait to get to your wardrobe again

Thanks girls

I got myself into gear and went out anyway , I felt better .
I only went out for a short period and did a few photo's but Im glad I did it , I wore purple top , denim pleat skirt black tights and furry ugg boots.

I got a bit cranky , an older guy appeared to be following us but he disappeared with his dog after a while.

Well that will be the last photo's I do for a little while , I plan to do the Bunny girl effect in a one piece bathing costume when I return from holiday.
