Decided to randomly go to some garage sales. There was an estate sale in a really expensive area. Found a $300 Brighton suitcase with this cute silver heart design on the front and handle, got it for only $15.

Also, found a joke stocking stuffer from a few years ago that was a power puff girls keychain that says "GIRLS ROCK". It's no longer a joke item to me. ;D

Me, my wife and SIL went to Goodwill for fun shopping and afterward went to Sonic for dinner. While ordering the woman inside couldn't hear me and said what ma'am, then when I finished our order {speaking louder, which usually gives me away} she said 'thank you ma'am! Not One Sir the whole time! Living the dream ;D ;D ;D
When I changed my name here in Tennessee a couple of months ago I just had to talk to the Chancellor for a few minutes and tell him I wasn't running from debt{hosp. bills}. That and days like today make life worth living!
I finally get to be me, and I don't want today to be my last! That's a very nice feeling.  ;D ;D ;D

I was asked for the first time if I was male or female yesterday.  Granted it was from a picture, but it made me happy.  Now just got to figure out how to get that look in person.  I still get sir-ed 100% of the time.

Today I was trying on some summer dresses I bought at Target. I was modeling one for my wife, and she said something I never in my life thought I would hear... "Honey, isn't that a little short?" We both started laughing!

Though I wasn't able to wear my breasts today, I feel like I finally have my walking/stances down. And let me tell you it's just weirdly wonderful that something as subconscious and mundane as 'walking' is filled with purpose and joy!   

I am truly high on life right now!  ;D
Looking to make and keep friends! Spreading the love, now that I can truly love myself!

Today I was waiting on my partner; she was in the fitting room. I was asked if I was waiting for my mom [emoji23] I'm 32, and my partner is 31 (she doesn't look old). I asked if I really look that young, and I was told yes. It was kinda awkward, but kind of funny. It made me feel good.

Although, now that I'm typing this and thinking about it a bit more, I'm kind of wondering how young I look. I really hope it's not like 15 or something [emoji19]

Today, I noticed that my body hair is beginning to thin and my nipples are slightly tender. I also had my third laser appointment, this past Saturday.
Be your own master, not the slave to illusion;
The lord of your own life, not the servant to falsities;
Only then will you realize your true potential and shake off the burdens of your fears and doubts.

Today someone told me: hey lady, do you know where I can take the subway? When I responded with my big voice because he was far he kinda looked at me a strange way [emoji23] this is how I looked for my second round interview. I think I did well and I will have news by Friday. [emoji4]

Since Tia and I are probably not the only ones with PayPal accounts, this is what I did to get my name changed:

1 - Log in to your PayPal account and select 'Account overview'
2 - Select the 'gear' symbol next to 'Log out' in the upper right of your screen
3 - Your profile will appear on the upper left of the screen, select 'update' in the profile box
4 - You should now see a name change menu, select 'legal name change'
5 - Follow the instructions and upload a scan (or photo) of your new drivers license and court order
6 - Bang your head against a wall for a few days, then send a note to 'compliance@paypal.com'
7 - If you don't get a response, call PayPal at 1-888-221-1161.

Be nice (no matter how frustrated you may be), all of the support folks I talked to were courteous and professional. They will ask you for the name on the account, then your current name. Once I told them my current name, they used it throughout the conversation. Explain the situation, and ask for someone who can help complete the name change. They will eventually ask some identifying questions about vehicle registrations, places you have lived, and maybe even your SSN. It only took 10 - 15 minutes on the phone. They updated my name while I was talking to them, so I was able to verify it before I hung up. I thanked the representative profusely.

I sent the request with attached documents on May 9th, and this morning got notification (sent to Stephanie) that my name's been changed. Verified! That was easy. Thanks Jessica Rose!

So you jumped the line on me. 

Sent mine stuff in also on the 9th but it still had the old name up there when I used it this morning to send my brother some money.

I think it said a week so guess I wait a few days to complain.

Oooops! Didn't mean to cut in in on you! I thought you were still trying to decide what to order (the triple shot mocha is good).

Maybe they're taking us in alphabetical order?

I was asked yesterday if I dated girls in high school.  You know, cause there's no way I could be dating girls now:)  This made me smile for some odd reason.  I am definitely more into men right now so no offense taken, just smiled and said, yes and that I've dated girls and anything and everything before.

Follow up with the Dr. yesterday, she told me how good I looked, how clear my skin was and how impressed she was with. My levels, after 5 months of hrt, I'm at great levels. Add to that, my wife told me how much she loves my boobs. Obsessed was the word she used. 😬 Yay!

April 22, 2015, the day of my first face to face pass in gender neutral clothes and no makeup. It may be months to the next one, but I'm good with that!

Being transgender is just a phase. It hardly ever starts before conception and always ends promptly at death.

Hi Christyn,                15 May 2018

I saw your signature at the bottom of your post; I was also in the Navy and never had the opportunity to serve with a Chief as beautiful as you. If I had, I might have stayed in and made a career of trying to catch her. I would have said you but you're too young to have been in then; you had yet to be born.

Looking fantastic you are.

Best Always,
Christine

Yesterday I had vocal surgery and the nurse in the pre-op insisted I take a pregnancy test and pee in a cup. I kept insisting I can not get pregnant. I even said I am 100% sure I am not pregnant several times. She followed me into the bathroom and insisted I pee in the cup. I said I am trans and she said oh you do not need to do the test.

I was so happy.

Heard from them a little while ago. They claim they need a photo ID.. I sent it with the court order so not sure what the problem is.  So sent it again.  Don't understand why they need a picture when all I needed to get that picture was the court order.
