My MIL has her nose so far in our buisness

I love the fact that my MIL is so supportive of Elvis as Evita but I would love it if she would just back off a little bit. We get a package or two every month from her with clothes, jewelry, and/or accessories that she thinks he may use when he dresses. I know she is supporting her son and that is amazing of her, many other men could not expect even a fraction of the acceptance that Elvis receives from her. I should just thank my lucky stars and feel like I have a friend in all this but I don't. I almost feel like it is an intrusion on our lives, probably because it brings the cross-dressing front and center when some days I would love to just pretend it isn't there. It is also possible that I feel like she is enabling him and while I am trying to reign in this aspect of our lives she is making it possible for him to dive in. Does that make any sense? Armchair psychologist here!! I feel like such a whiny bitch in this post but I promised myself I would put it all out there.

I took some time off but I am back and ready to dish

Hello everyone, I had to take a little time off from the blog. I have a new found respect for people who make this their life's work, it is hard to put yourself and your life out there on a regular basis. While the majority of feedback I have received has been positive and supportive there are always those couple in the bunch that have to attack or just be downright cruel because they can. I thought I was prepared for that possibility but it turns out I was not and needed to do a little soul searching.

I also realized I was putting way to much pressure on myself to craft the perfect posts, to not offend anyone, to not hurt Elvis with my thoughts, to be liked by everyone who may choose to read these words. One thing about me is that I dread ever hurting someone's feelings, the thought that I may hurt a cross-dresser or their spouse by writing something insensitive was a grave concern as was of course the possibility I could hurt Elvis.

That being said I miss the support I was receiving from you all and the messages you sent for me were read or passed on to me so thank you for sticking with me while I took this reevaluation time.
