Abroad..

​The last few weeks have been a blur of work, travel, and stress. The result? My usual attempted healthy habits have fallen by the wayside, and I've put on a bit of weight.

Last night, as I buttoned up a shirt for dinner, I felt that familiar tightness and discomfort when weight goes on..

It's a feeling I'm determined to get rid of once and for all when I get back home, and I've promised myself I'll get back on track with my diet and fitness.

​As I took a moment to relax during a much-needed siesta today, I noticed my wife had hung up her long summer dresses in the bathroom.

In our hotel room wardrobe, next to my shirts, were a few shorter dresses.

I had a quiet little laugh to myself. Maybe the long dresses were hers and the short ones were for me?

​I mentioned to my wife that my shirt was feeling a little tight and uncomfortable in the heat.

Without missing a beat, she jokingly offered a solution: "Well, either wear a t-shirt or you'll have to wear one of my dresses out tonight."

I love these moments, our little inside jokes about my crossdressing.

​I confessed to her that I'd already been looking at the dresses next to my shirts and had laughed to myself, thinking they must be for me.

I even admitted to wearing two of them.

She smiled and guessed the exact two: a black and white one and a blue one with small white flowers.

​It was such a nice, lighthearted moment.

I'm sure sometime during this holiday we'll have more chats about my crossdressing.

I kove that we can sometimes share these private jokes and be so open with each other.

I still wish we could talk about it more.

Get this holiday out of the way then will be on a strict exercise and diet regime to lose the weight I've put on..
