What is going on in the world.

Well I may be working from home. Which doesn’t bother me at all at least I’ll be able to be Keelee all day. No worries about starving, I can always butcher a hog if I have to.

all work for me has been cancelled or postponed with no info when work will be aloud to continue due to govt rules stating any event of 250 or more people to be shut down...i work in the entertainment industry so this has hit me hard...no incoming revenue coming in for the foreseeable future...

For me, worrisome indeed. Louisiana is now 8th in the nation for the number of cases, most of those in New Orleans, my hometown. I’m 73, so I’m in the high-risk group, and don’t expect to escape infection. But I’ll report in to CrossDresserHeaven until I’m too sick to do so.

Stay well, ladies of CDH!!

Not affecting me at all, but it is making it more difficult to buy basic necessities because of others who are "panic buying" more things than they will probably actually ever use.

I work for a local school dist., and I just got 3 weeks off with pay because all of the schools in the nearby 3 counties closed schools until April.

I had a hair appt. today at Ulta, but it got cancelled due to the virus. So I went to a local salon. Got right in. Got my hair done and made another appt for Wednesday to get it colored. Not enough time today. They gave me a tour and made me feel welcome.

I think I found a new favorite place.

Keep the faith, Jenny.  The American and British peoples have arisen to the task many times in past years.

For me, the grocery store, the pharmacy, and doctor visits are the only places I will be visiting for many weeks to come.

Who would have ever guessed that toilet paper would become such a valuable commodity?

I am actually getting an increase in hours while this lasts.  I am hospital security and they gave us the word today that we will have overlapping shifts now, just don't have the schedules yet.

I have gone shopping in several places that are usually crowded, and weren't today.  This has been increasing in frequency from last week.  In and out of places like Wal-Mart and CVS pharmacy.

Along as we all keep our senses in check, we will make it through

I work in IT for a government agency that provides essential public services. Most office staff have been ordered to work from home. My department is scrambling to provision the things needed to make that happen. Supply chain issues exacerbate our situation. One person in another department was exposed to the virus. Everyone at work is stressed.

Then there's the senseless hoarding of food, cleaning supplies, and paper products. I've seen some ugly moments while shopping. I've seen the doomsday preppers lined up at the local gun shop. I know the harsh restrictions will hurt many local businesses. My girlfriend owns one of them. She is worried. I wish I could do more to help.

All these things weigh on me.

Every cloud has a silver lining. I've seen some incredible acts of kindness. A local surfer took it on himself to start a TP bank for those that can't find any. Seriously.  The staff at my work donated excess vacation and sick time to help the less fortunate. Good people everywhere are banding together to beat this virus. Communities will rebuild. Science will find a treatment and then a cure. I am sure of it.

We will get thru this.

Namaste,
Emily

Hi Jenny,

What I have found, and this has been true since my crossdressing started last Spring, is how much peace and comfort I find even being partially dressed.

I'm writing to you wearing a bra (no forms though), stockings, and panties. What a nice feeling it gives me.

We will get through this.

I do automated remote IT support, so I have quite easily moved my office home for the duration. I did a small shopping trip for the few essentials I was low on. I always buy in bulk, so I have enough of everything in store for a couple months without shopping (I got my regular three months supply of toilet paper several weeks ago, before the crisis) .

The plus is that I get to Anne all day (while my wife is at work anyway).

We were told yesterday to begin working from home (which in the past was where I always worked). It was wonderful to do my outdoor stretches and then work out in my own basement gym in spandex capris and a sports bra!

But, just a thought to share with all my girlfriends...while COVID-19 may prove NOT be as devastating as portrayed by so many of the "panic-mongers"... it IS serious, and we should all take common sense precautions.

Stay safe and stay healthy, beautiful ladies!

Hugs,

Shawna

Hello ladies,

Down here in Melbourne “OZ” my beloved and I have decided to self isolate for however long it takes. We too fit into the “mature group most at risk”

Thus, this brings me to ask those of us who have “non cooperative SO’s with our crossdressing”, how are you all filling in your day?.

Yes we still do our daily walks most days and yes I do underdress 24/7 and with breast forms in at night ( we sleep in separate rooms).

But if we are home with our beloved’s during the day, how else do we occupy our time.??

I have lots of books to re read and as a broken down old amateur rock guitarist with 3 very nice guitars.. after eons of “I must get back into them” , YAY, my “3 and 4 bar chord skills” are returning…..

I’ll soon be running my I pod into my amp with Hank Marvin and The Shadows, (yes I’m that old), and running “ripping solos” along with Hank.

In my dreams….

Luckily the amp has a headphone jack, so I play back through my “cans”‘

“Keeping the peace” around here is very important.

Happy dressing

Well our spineless prime minister finally came out and closed the boarders on Monday, he's only 3 weeks late, not bad for him and the provinces have closed all schools, bars, restaurants basically anything non-essential. The premier of Ontario came out yesterday and has declared a state of emergency. The unions are now talking with our big manufacturers [ cars, steel, etc] to take a shutdown of 2 weeks at least which I've been waiting for. Don't really need to make cars when the car lot is closed right.and our 6 major banks came out with plans to assist small businesses and personal banking with 6 months deferrals on mortgage payments, credit cards, car loans for those with lost income. Empolyment Insurance Canada has removed all waiting periods and automatic approval is in place if you are laid of or get  sick and it will be counted as a stand alone occurrence so if you get laid off later in the year say next fall if you work construction it won't count against that claim and you will be entitled to your full 35 weeks benefits still. More to come.

Stay healthy girls, Heather.

Save your newspapers. You may need them after reading.
