I am so sore...I have been working at the store every day for several hours a day, setting it up, bringing in new consignments, ticketing displaying, etc. I am not opened yet, but I keep the front door open so I can get a breeze into the shop. I had several people walk in to see the shop today! I have found out my shop is the talk of all the VFWs in the area, as well as the weight loss groups and the beauty shops! Holy Moses! People I dont know are telling me how excited everyone is, how closets are being gone through, how pennies are being pinched so they can come buy, how happy they are to have a place that is all theirs! One woman, after five minutes in my store, grabbed my hand and held onto it and started to cry.
This is overwhelming for me. I knew on FB and other internet areas (like here) have been very supportive and excited about the store, but to get it in real life, direct from people in front of me, is truly, literally, overwhelming. As I said, I am so sore. Every part of my body aches and my legs feel like they are on fire. But its so worth it. Once the store is assembled, the work load is so different. Not so much laborious. More details. Like ticketing, sorting, etc. I sent a press release to our local LGBT Pride Center. Its going into the newsletter and hopefully on their web site, that my store is opening and welcoming to the LGBT community. I specifically invited the trans folks to come in, MtF, and I would welcome them especially. I have a special day with special hours just for them. Once I get the women's section done, I am adding on the male clothing line too...for bio mens, transmen and butches to shop. I love my life right now. It is so full...

I need to clarify something I wrote. When I said I have a special day and time for MtFs to come to the store, that doesnt mean they arent welcome at any time in the store. I said it much better in my press release! LOL. Some MtFs, especially those just transitioning, arent comfortable going out in public in female form. Thats why I have the special day and special hours for them. But I dont care if they hang out all day any day with me! Whatever their comfort level!
