Transition is like a miracle .. so happy.. and telling strangers I am trans.

Hey Girls,
Well, I put Christmas lights on my house.. I have totally chick'd out but some things don't change like my love of life and others.
I am still driven to help others and be successful and live a full new life.
I thought I would be depressed with the holidays because of the changes in my relationship with my wonderful wife but find myself so happy and seeing things so clearly.
I so love feeling totally like a woman and look forward to the future more than ever.
So, I am having FFS December 18th with Dr. Z.. I had a third facial clearing yesterday in Dallas   .ouch.. it really hurt this time..
I hope this is not a duplicate post.. I am so busy trying to get ready for December 18th I am working 12 hour days and my head is spinning.
On a side note I flew do Dallas yesterday for electrolisis and on the ride in a cab the lady asked me what I was doing in Dallas.. and I told her I was trans and having my beard removed. She said her 18 year old niece is trans and wants to be a boy.. she said she is too young to make that decision so I proceeded to educate her for 15 minutes and last thing I told her was to be patient and loving to her niece.. she thanked me and I think I got to her.
Also, I happened to buy a car in Dallas that was delivered to the airport by the sales manager of the dealership.  It is a 2008 Toyota Solara with only 4300 miles.. I had to buy.
Anyway, he made the mistake of asking me what I was doing in Dallas.. so me being my honest self told him I was trans and becoming a woman and having my beard removed.. and gave him a little history.. I told him to feel blessed because not many people get to meet trans person.  He was totally respectful and kind and said he was happy to meet me.  Not sure if when he drove off that he did not go wow.. omg... but whatever.. I like helping others understand more about GID

Are you doing E3000, Carrie? Those shots hurt! But the nice thing is the shots are a few times during the entire day versus thousands of times with the electrolysis needles.

My next session there is December 19th. So far I've gone from 15 technician hours on my first visit (2 techs for 7.5 hours, one on each side of the face) down to 1 tech for 5 hours this last visit at the end of October.

And being oneself is liberating, isn't it? Even with losses, I am happier today than I ever was living as a male.

Thanks Tegs glad you enjoyed my story..

LizMarie,
Yes E3000 in Dallas and yes ouch those shots.. thankfully my full clearing only took just over 4 hours this time.  Be sure and tell the girls Keri said hi!  I love them.  And yes being myself is just so amazing.. I could care less what anyone thinks now.. I think us girls are special people.

Lindagirl, With proper therapy I have come to this place in my life.. I hope I live to be 100 now and a year ago I tried to hurt myself.. Life is so good

Clhoe G  E3000 is a place in Dallas that does full facial clearings.. its amazing..

Take care girls.. can't wait to post pics around February  after I get extensions and am healed up.

The shots do sound painful, but it is the end results that count!
