A good movie with popcorn with the blanket around me... when it is raining outside... Good Times...lol

[Sabrina]

I repaired a broken button loop on a leather coat I got. Felt good to get it fixed.

[RavenL]

Well I outed myself on my Facebook. Kind of nervous right now seeing what comments I get.

Changed over from a corset to a girdle since all of my tubes have been removed after tummy tuck surgery. I'm not sure if I'm happy or not but that's what my plastic surgeon recommended for the best final shape. So much work to even take a pee. Oh me, what we women will do to look pretty.

Nothing's really made me happy today (see other thread), but this amused me.

I was coming out of the men's room at McDonald's and a woman and her young daughter were rushing towards the restrooms. The woman, in a hurry, started to push passed me to go into the restroom. Her daughter said, "moooom! That's the men's room. I was dressed kinda middle aged ladyish, but I haven't shaved in two days. Can't really call it a pass, but it makes me more comfortable with the possibility of going full time. Most people are so oblivious.

Working the drive through at work with a girl from my high school that I didnt know and commenting on nail polish and things like pretty dresses. We also saw a really cute guy with gorgeous blue eyes and we talked about him most of the night

I've been wearing girls jeans for pass couple of weeks and have had no problems occur while wearing them in public, so I decide to take the next step and wear them to a family event today ( most of my family doesn't know that i am trans yet) so I was really nervous on my way to the get to together but within minutes of arriving i was given more complements then I could count on how good look!

[Jessie Ann]

Did a 2 hour 2 tech electrolysis session this afternoon. The local TV station that is doing a story on my transition was there for part of treatment and asked very caring and relevant questions. My main electrologist has been treating Trans patients for over 20 years and is very in tune with our issues. She did a beautiful job describing why she has been so helpful to our cause. They asked both of us a lot of questions and spent about 45 minutes filming. I think all of the filming was done with me laying on my back while they were working on my face and my eyes were covered to keep the bright lights out of my eyes.

The news crew will be at my job site on Monday to document my full time transition at work. I am moving into a new office building (actually it is a renovated very historical building in downtown Los Angeles) as the new me at work. Much like my bare office I am kind of a blank canvas upon which my true self is going to be transformed.   

I have been nervous about whether I am passing sufficiently so as to not be obviously transgender.  Tonight my son told me that when I was at my daughters graduation a few weeks ago, one of my kids friends who knows me, had no idea who I was and he was wondering who the lady that was with my kids was. That made me smile.

[RavenL]

My Mom actually called me Raven today. Since coming out to her she hasn't called me anything. And it really meant a lot to me to hear her say my name.

[Jessiegirly66]

That's awesome Raven! I can only hope and pray that one day my parents might accept me

[Jessie Ann]

Congrats Raven. I'm still waiting for some of my family to come around. I am willing to give it some time for them to adjust. I'm sure it made you feel really good to have her say that.

[FrancisAnn]

I'm very happy to have 3-4 close women friends during my process to become 100% female. They are friends indeed. We have all promised each other to be friends until our last days. All have helped me so much during the past 2 years. I so love to go shopping with one girl friend, she knows her stuff in a thrift store & what looks good on me. Happy girl this morning. 

[Jessiegirly66]

Congratulations Francisann, you certainly have it better than I

[FrancisAnn]

Congratulations Francisann, you certainly have it better than I

Most women are very nice if you will be honest with them. I have a few that wish me well but do not want to talk every day but most enjoy having a new girl friend. Women care about each other very much & I care about my girl friends. I would do anything for them if they needed......Good luck, try being more open.

Congratulations Jessie.  Layla and Jeanette are both so very good at facial hair removal.  I'm looking forward to my next session.  Also, I know you're going to have a great first day at work.  I know it's hard, but just don't worry about the passing part.  I have a friend that describes "passing privilege" not giving us privilege as we pass at being the prettiest women, but rather to give us the privilege to pass as a woman.  You'll do terrific.

I'm happy that I've been given a green light to double my dose of Estrogen.  I was seeing lots of effects from my low dose.   Now, I'm ready for the next phase. 
Hugs,

Alana

[Jessie Ann]

Congrats Alana on getting the green light to up your dosage. I hope you have a great reaction to the new dosage.

Layla and Jeanette do a great job and I have got my July date scheduled with the both of them to hopefully have a full clearance completed. We made that appointment open ended as to the stop time so that they can get a complete clearing done. Ive been averaging 5 hours of removal time for each of my 5 appointments.   Hopefully I'm already about 25% completed with the process.

Jessiegirly and Jessie Ann, oh thank you! She even called me Raven again this morning. So much nicer not having to hear "His" name now.

[Martine A.]

It was a cloudy day. No rain. Perfect day for me.
I like when it is gray. I also like fog.

Once I had golden fog here. Omg! Gotta share some photos this week.

Bright blue skies and sunshine, fine fine weather today.
