I think it's partly because of what you said - I'm tired of hiding. I've worked very, very hard to get to where I am. I don't need to hide behind anything any longer.<br /><br />@ Dani: It's so true. I've never felt at home here, for a number of reasons. And I will be doing something about that. Too many haunted memories here.Cassidyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10765803435751308973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348070062651753968.post-32070646244682169242016-01-31T10:17:43.437-05:002016-01-31T10:17:43.437-05:00As a fellow New Englander, born and raised, I know...As a fellow New Englander, born and raised, I know exactly what you mean; Yankee frugality is about more than just money, it's deeply ingrained in our culture here, as could be expected from the inventors of the one word answer to any question. :)Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16975813317460009585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348070062651753968.post-40941674522822100362016-01-31T04:18:57.740-05:002016-01-31T04:18:57.740-05:00I know what you mean about hiding behind your glas...I know what you mean about hiding behind your glasses. I have contacts and before transition I used to wear them often, especially if I'd been out running or swimming in the morning. I still wear them for sports but remove them before I get on with the rest of my day.<br />I never used to mind wearing my glasses to work but on the one occasion I've worn them into work I caught my reflection in the kitchen window and immediately went and took the contacts out and put on my glasses. I know I'm using my glasses to hide behind and its something that I will have to deal with at some point, if only to get rid of the 30 plus pairs of disposables I've got in the house.<br /><br />Contacts do take getting used to and putting something that close to the eyeball goes against all instincts but before you know it you do it without thinking.Jennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08410714441581467404noreply@blogger.com
