Life is a roller coaster and my dressing as Veronica is no different. I have my down-times when I do not dress up for periods of time. As a CD, we have that luxury of choosing who we want to be at any given time, whether male, female or somewhere in between. This is by no means a shot or meant as to disrespect other sisters of the T-Community, it just is one of the many differences between the diverse corners of our amazing T-Community. Sometimes the break can be a month or two, yet other times the drought can be a year or more. I spent 11 months of 2017 without indulging in the joy of being Veronica. The reasons are plenty and I'm certain they differ from sister to sister.
I'm currently in one of those extended "funks" going on 5 months now. I've not let Veronica out since early January. Could it be I'm not feeling proud of the extra 10-ish pounds I'm carrying since the holidays? Could it be my age is beginning to catch up to me and the energy and enthusiasm levels are tapering? Could it be we have house guests for a few months with young and very curious children and it is difficult to work in V-time? Or could it be a combination of all the above? Who knows. I will come out of it sooner or later and that is all I need know to keep me excited and looking forward to Veronica's next emergence, whenever it may be.
What brings you out of your funks? I think I found one of those ways today. While walking through a shopping center waiting for my oil change, I came across a Payless shoe store that is closing. I walked into the
nearly half-empty store to look around and what did I find? These gorgeous Christian Siriano pumps in my size and at 70% off. Slump or no slump I was compelled to buy them and the excitement of wearing them is enough to get me excited about finally letting Veronica out again.
I must find a way to make that happen. I owe it to myself and to my many friends and social media followers who are so loving, friendly and supportive and are also longing for some new content from Veronica Mendes.
Well that's my thought for today. Here's to Veronica's emergence soon. Have a blessed day my friends.
I'm also on this CD roller coaster. Sometimes I'll go months without...perhaps because the effort seems too great (even though I'm only a neck-down CD). Other times I'll spend many days in a row dressing in my feminine finest when I wake up and not slipping out of stilettos until it's time for bed. I'm not sure what guides this ride, other than maybe sometimes Elise is just longing to be...and who am I to deny her;)
