Reflections on Life

Dont fence me in..

Each and every day I realize more and more how unique I am and how important that is to me. Its not only OK to be outside the box, its very liberating! Hehe
My latest revelation about my uniqueness came with my most recent purchase. A cowboy hat of sorts, for the beach on our vacation. Its white and its straw and its one of those crushable types. It also has a few sparkles on it and I purchased it in a fancy little girls department at a store called Loubie Loo. LOL You see I have a very small head. Size 6 5/8 to be exact and since every adult hat generally only comes in a size 7 or larger I am at a big disadvantage. To give you an idea how small my head is, the other day I astonished K by trying on a 5T baby hat that Fit!
Anyway, what this lead me too, more then the uniqueness of my head size was that I as a Butch (if I was going to be labeled) was totally comfortable wearing a little girls sun hat. *grin I don't exactly fit the sterotype of a Butch I realized but I know now that its OK. I definately have my Butch traits and there are some things I wont ever do. (Like wear a dress or pantyhose EVER again) but I can still be comfortable in my skin and be afraid of spiders or ask directions when I am lost and still call myself butch if I choose.


We love to put things in little boxes, it makes our life so much easier doesnt it? But living outside the box and letting Life be outside the box is much much more Fun!

Umm, Sweetheart, it's "Libby Lu," not "Loubie Lou"... Sorry, I couldn't resist!

I'm so excited about the hat! It looks perfect on you!
