It happened Monday, but I just now got a chance to post it:

I went out to the pool!

Aside from the sunburn I got; I had a great time with my fiancé, one future daughter, and four future grandkids.  My fiance told me last night that her daughter was checking me over to see if she could tell.  Good news, She thinks I look totally like a woman!

The only bad thing is when I had to shut down for a minute due to the heat.  I laid in a shaded area near the corner of a fence and a building.  Then some creepy guy sat next to me in the shade, and started bugging me.  After telling him, repeatedly, I'm engaged my fiance finally came and rescued me from him, and found us a different shaded spot.  He kept offerring me a granolla bar.  Sorry bud, I don't take stuff from strangers.  When out and about, pick an area that has multiple ways out.  It could have ended badly, we weren't in the most open of places.  I won't make that mistake again!
All the worlds a joke, and the people, merely punchlines

So been out twice now around neighborhood to walk dog. Today, I went further. Went to visit my step mom in hospital, passed tons of people, nurse in room kept walking right by me, etc. Not a single person even gave me a second glance, though I hid behind hair a bit and was super terrified on my own.

Was really hoping to then grab dinner like that, but most people didn't want to leave her room (despite the fact she had expressly requested alone time and my dad was being spineless about telling people to go home/leave) except my step brother, who... uhhh. Wow, he was not doing a bang up job on name and gender, and I didn't really want to go eat with just him saying JOHN at the top of his lungs repeatedly.  (He has volume control issues.) So I chickened out / was practical and removed makeup and wig in car and just went as I was with a hat (clothes were neutral).

My wife's youngest sister came by with her new boyfriend from Utah. He is a super nice guy and even though I do like her current husband They are like oil and water.
They are also both named Dave. Not so confusing I guess.
Anyways this was also the first time we have got together since Donna arrived and she thought I looked beautiful and said she had expected  a guy in a dress and not the woman that walked in, she said she would have walked right past me on the street and not recognized me
Hugs and more hugs all the way around and a big acceptance of me.
It feels greats And I know my wife is happy for her sisters support and that makes me happy
December 2015 noticed strange feelings moving in
December 2016 started to understand what my body has been telling me all my life, started wearing a bra for comfort full time
Spiro and dutastricide 2017
Mid year 2017 Started dressing and going out shopping etc by myself
October T 14.8 / 456
Came out to my wife in December 2017
January 2018 dressing androgenes and still have face hair
Feb 2018 Dressing full time in female clothing out at work and to friends and family, clean shaven and make up
Living full time March 1 2018
March T 7.4 / 236
April 19th eligard injection, no more Testosterone
June 19th a brand new freshly trained HRT and transgender care doctor for me. Only a one day waiting list to become her patient 😍

Your very cute in your pic, just go for it and be yourself. Stay dressed and enjoy. Hope your step
Mom feels better soon. Really have to dislike that volume challenge people either with your other name or the sirs. Gets old so fast

Another milestone today. Randi works for a retreat center and we're staying there between apartments. This week we're camping.

Tonight we decided to use the facilities in the sauna, but not the sauna itself. I was a little nervous but I managed to take a shower, pee, and brush my teeth without hearing "OMG, there's a man in here!"

I pass pretty well, but no way I'd pass naked!

The spy who came in from the cold in the War Between the Sexes.

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.

It's a few days past (since this weekend), but I went through a drive-thru as myself. My wife wanted me to go to walgreens to get her ice cream, but I wasn't too comfy getting out of my car to do it. So, I opted to compromise and go through the drive-thru at Sonic, since it had been a long while from when she had an oreo blast. It was so good and the girl at the window said that she hoped I have a good night. Good times.

I have met my father and step-mother for the first time as me. He said it was strange at the beginning. Then we talked about it and many other things. Just before I Ieave he gaves me a big hug. [emoji16] It was easier than I thought. They only want me to be happy and they don't want me to injure myself as I did 2 times. I have never been so happy!!

Hi Siobhan,                      31 may 2018

As soon as I saw Sonic and Oreo blast I figured you had to be from the great southwest. I imagine it's a bit cool ;) where you are.

Ellie, I think you are so empathic and brave  that you sacrificed your own true feelings for a while to someone who  it seems needed some support - Well done - You are  quite an inspiration and really  so nice a person for what you do on occasions. Give your Sis a big hug as well for her support.
Take care and Have fun

I wish it was cool lol. But, yeah, I'm in AZ, at the moment, originally from TX. We do have Sonics in TX too, so maybe it's a south-southwest thing(?).

We had Sonic here in NY for a little while but it didn't take. They only lasted a year or two. We had Dickie's Barbeque for a while, too. That I miss even though they couldn't match up with some of the really good barbeque we have here.

Hello! I'm almost 2 months post op gcs, today was especially difficult  feeling down that my fibrin isn't falling off like its supposed to and my surgeons staff recommended me take 3 sitz baths a bath instead of 2. Feeling defeated and exhausted mentally from this recovery i told my boyfriend about he spent the whole day sending me sweet messages and took me out for dinner then we cuddled in bed for a bit.

Started out crappy but ended perfectly

Hi Siobhán,                   31 May 2018

Sonic's are a fixture here in Texas and headquartered in Oklahoma City Oklahoma. Personally, I like Braum's Dairy Stores for Ice cream. They're headquartered in Tuttle, Oklahoma. They have several farms totaling 40,000 acres. Here's a link:  https://www.braums.com/tour-braums/

If you ever visit here, their Ice cream, IMO, is as good as it gets. Almost reads like a commercial. Thanks for the check Mr. Braum; won't say a word to nobody.

It's fairly warm here 88°, 56% humidity at 2257 hrs CDT. Too humid and not warm enough. I'm in the Fort Worth area in a town called Southlake. They really should rename it Taxlake; property taxes are out of sight. The only reason I'm still here is I am like crabgrass, impossible to get rid of. Been here so long they ignore me.

Where in Tejas are you from? Plan on coming back?

Some of the Dickie's restaurants are corporate owned and some are franchise operations. The corporate Dickie's are much better than the franchise operations. The latter do a lot of skimping that doesn't happen with the corp. units.

There's another one in this area called Spring Creek BBQ. Pretty good food and usually piled high. Their baked potatoes are some of the largest tatters I have ever seen. They're so large they must have been grown in Texas (sarc).

At one time we had the dubious distinction of having more Hummers per capita than any where else on Space Ship Earth. They have now been replaced by soccer Mom Jeeps.

Our transgender population took a huge jump this year; increased 100%... went from One to Two; we are making strides. Haven't a clue as to the identity of the latest individual; all I know is they are MTF and old, like ancient.

Best Always, Love
Christine

Went to the mall before they opened to walk our dog.  Just three chikas walking around, it is nice to just sort of blend in.  Heading out to an art walk downtown and then Heather and I are headed to a drag show that our friends are performing in.  Busy day, but looking forward to being out and about.

It was a bit interesting, so I started my new diet today promised I would walk more. So in the afternoon I decided to go to my local park and go for a walk (walked there lol). About 1/2 to 3/4ths of the way before I decided to call it a day I was walking past one of the side streets when someone had let go of a bunch of graduation balloons. It was perfect I was passing by as the sun peeked out from behind one of the clouds and these balloons flow by. Its the small things sometimes.
