I shaved my face for the first time today! I barely had any facial hair and to others it wasn't visible unless they were up close but it was bothering me, and now I can say I shave my face!



Milestone !!!!

Congrats man!

I really like that.  How long did it take them to do it?  I'll try doing that sometime in the future, but I don't think I could do it with my left hand.

One of my female neighbors pulled up while I was unloading groceries after my therapy session and Says  "Hi, You look so cute!" I was still in the dress I wore to the appointment.  Granted she probably didn't have her glasses on. But it was nice to hear.

You look nice and relaxed Michelle lounging in a nice area even if it is a regular campground. My preference goes to forestry roads far away from people. But to each her own.

Hugs.

Wow, she was right, Laurie! And I love that dress! Very flattering. I need to look for something in that style.

I went to a nail salon and the did it. Took about an hour, and I got a glass of wine while they did them. [emoji16][emoji16]

I bought a new dress for the cruise I am going on in a less than 2 weeks. I am going with my best friend. We are celebrating her 30th birthday. It is my first cruise, but I am pretty excited.

My Electrologist told me we had "hit a major milestone" and we are down to "fluff", gave me a demo of the kind of current required to remove it ( I will believe it when I feel it) and has asked me to stop shaving everywhere but my top and bottom lip (she knows this annoys me if I don't) From now on she thinks we are probably at the start of a visit every two weeks for couple and stretching out from there....IS that a light I can see..... :D

We're on parallel paths, Megan. I noticed the same thing a few weeks ago. Except my reaction was, "Yay?"

Why can't that fat work on me bum and me hips instead?

Yes,  I'm sure at some point they may be too fat,  but I'll worry about that another day [emoji23]

Wow!  That's pretty close to where I am.  It's a great feeling, isn't it?  Like driving through a long tuner we thought would never end, to see sunlight just ahead!

Yay!  And congratulations on your endurance getting to this point.

I got a stack of gender change letters from Fenway Health today. One for the Registry of Motor Vehicles, one for Social Security, one for a Passport, and one for the birth certificate.  :)
