What made you happy today? For mtF members only, please.

[RavenL]

Congrats Raven!  Feels great doesn't it. Hugs.

It feels wonderful its starting to sink in tonight. I've looked at the letter at least thirty times tonight and started crying just a few minutes ago.

Breast development made me happy today!

At my therapist appointment this morning,  based upon development which is starting to become noticeable [emoji4],  my therapist told me that this is definitely my last summer going topless at the beach.[emoji4]

After getting tires on the car this morning I went to the dollar store and got a pair of feminine sunglasses and some LA Colors "Twinkle" lipstick/gloss combo. I then went home, did my hair with the new clips I bought at work, ate lunch, refreshed my shave, put on makeup in an attempt to hide my beard shadow and the new lipstick, did the dishes, refreshed my nail polish and dressed to go out.

I'm wearing cute pink boyshorts with black lace edging, a sports bra, a tight orange tank top, mom style denim shorts and my "creamsicle" orange kicks.

As I write this I'm sitting in a cafe. This is my first time out with the whole package and the only interaction I've had was a neighbor in my complex who smiled and said hello when I stopped for the mail. I haven't noticed even one strange look.

Next week after I get paid I plan to get my hair done and my eyebrows shaped.

The shorts are the only thing I'm wearing that dates from before I realized I'm trans and that wasn't bought with transition in mind. I will never buy men's clothing for myself ever again!

This was actually from yesterday but I had no time to post anything because of work and travel.  I was meeting with a lawyer working on the defense of a company we are suing and the lawyer for the deponent.  I am very open about my transgender status and decided to show them my before and after picture.  They were both amazed at the difference and wanted to know where I got the professional head shot that I used for my after picture.  they couldn't believe that it was an iPhone selfie.   Additionally, the defense lawyer said I created some confusion in their firm when they noticed that the correspondence had changed from my old name to my new name.  They thought that maybe there was a husband and wife team in my office and it wasn't until I sent an e-mail to them to correct their proof of service documentation to reflect my correct name because of my name and gender change did they figured it out.  I had a good laugh with that one.

Today a pro did my make up. Oh my gosh, people just kept walking past me, including one colleague from work. Men would of course have a look but no clocking. That is just confirmation only clean face is between me and passing at daylight... wow

I was in a book store just minding my own business when I saw a really beautiful girl (mtf). She was tall and thin, very narrow at the hips, virtually no breasts, but had really amazing skin and face. She was beautiful and was passing way better than I could right now. Mischief filled me as I tried to get her attention without causing any embarrassment. I just walked past her and said a very quiet "hello". If I see her again I will introduce myself and maybe give her a card.

I got my new birth certificate! YAY!!! It's a girl

[Mado G]

I did a bad thing and adopted some forest plants. 

[Marlee]

Relaxing bubble bath and shaved my legs.

going to Fort Wayne Pride (yes, for some reason we have pride in July, not June) for the first time.

[Sydney_NYC]

I had dinner with my aunt from my father's side of the family. (The only one that is accepting of my father's 3 sisters.) It was positive and she's been talking to the other two and my father on acceptance. We may all meet when we come back in TN next month for another visit.

[Martine A.]

I slept pretty much through the whole day. Gosh that feels good.

[Mado G]

I ripped up the last of the disgusting carpet in my basement!

[CrysC]

Spent the day out and about with some girlfriends yesterday.  Everybody was nice and properly pronouned me, etc.  Felt great.  This morning I went out while not trying to dress female, no makeup and was still called a lady several times.  That also felt great.
and I found some boots that were on clearance. 

[Kitty June]

Went to our local pride event yesterday and really enjoyed being out and not too worried about being judged.
Bought some bras today and then posted a photo of myself from yesterday on Facebook. Still feeling good. Hopefully I feel that way in the morning. I guess I've officially outed myself. Happy and nervous

I realized that, even though I don't pass at all, the women in my department treat me as one of the girls and so do other women in the store who are aware I'm trans. The men treat me with the same respect as they do the other women and I'm always included. I enjoy my job, it gives me plenty of exercise and stimulation. I could stay forever if it wasn't for the lack of insurance and the fact that I only make $9.15 an hour.

Oh, and today, one of them made a mistake and called me Diana, (my name is Dion). I told them, "no, Diana is my cousin, but you can call me Dee!" Now most of them do.

[Sigyn]

OMG, my counselor/therapist said at the end of our session today "So when do you want the letter to your endocrinologist?"

I was gobstopped. I told her "maybe in a few weeks, I want to continue losing weight and getting in shape... because I have one chance to do this, and I want to do it right."

but OMG! So happy and nervous at the same time!

I have a "make you sad" story, but that's for another thread.
