Had a great full day in my only dress and it was the best day I've had in a very long time. My wife and I took our boys out for our son's birthday celebration at the movies and IHOP. I even got ma'am'd while being handed my food. Ooh, I'm over the moon about it.

Whoohoo SiobhánF! How wonderful to enjoy you son's birthday as you. Wow! Why wouldn't they ma'am you. You look fabulous!

Hugs,
Donica.

Today is still young, so being able to breath and put my feet on the floor this morning is my happy so far today. [emoji2]

As for yesterday, I bought my first real wig and a new dress and necklace. I actually had enough confidence to go shopping, even without makeup, shaving legs, or close shave of the shadow.



This truly made me happy! I was on cloud nine!

Yay Kelly Marie! I need to get a new wig, and haven't been able to bring myself to do it yet. Way to go, and without obsessing about makeup, shaving... You are doing it (and you look great in your new wig)!

Hi Siobhán,  That is so lovely, a great day with your family indeed, and you look positively singular! 

Take care,

Sonja.

Hey girl, you are looking terrific...  I love how you look in your "only" dress.  Oh, and getting ma'am'd at the restaurant... 
...that must have made your feel quite good.   How did your wife react to that???

Hmm, soon it may be time to get some more dresses and warmer dresses as the colder weather starts arriving.
Thank you for posting your great pictures and for your encouraging comments.

Please continue with your updates.

What you reported is really good news... getting out there fully presenting as a female is quite an adventure... initially of course it can not only be exciting but also very scary.  As you do it more and more, and build your confidence it then becomes easier as you refine your look and your body movements.... 

Thanks for your post and for your picture....  keep on keeping on...
I will be looking for more of your posts and updates.

Hugs, and well wishes,
Danielle

Thanks Randy. Go for the wig. You won't regret what it will do for your confidence, especially getting one that isn't the cheap costume wigs from the Halloween store. I've tried those in the past and never really felt like they helped the look. This one, OTOH, feels natural and looks amazing.

Thanks for the kind words, Danielle. I think I'll be starting up a transition thread soon to track my progress.

Randy, I don't know what is available for wig sources in C'Springs but if you make it up to Littleton at all, Hana Designs has a great selection and Hana is very trans friendly.

Thanks Tia. That advice is about the best way to get me off dead-in-the-water with the sails luffing. I'll go up there after my backpack trip

Oh, my wife didn't even notice, but whatever. lol. Speaking of getting more dresses, I went out and got another one, but much shorter (it's friggin hot here in AZ!), and some jeans.

GIRL! You look amazing!

It's definitely hot here in AZ. Thankfully, we're heading into cooler temps.

Yeah! It is. I felt it last night before I went on a run. It's getting closer to fall. :3

@SiobhánF LOL - I just had a massive blonde moment, So I'm looking at your new photos thinking you look great in your new Dress! it looks very cute on you!  jeans look great too! - BUT why does she look different, she's done something, I'm studying your hair, hmmmm, after ages - OH You're not wearing glasses in your pic!!!  Yes - you look great! Summer dresses could really help you in hot weather - how hot does it get where you live?

Take care,

Sonja.

Lol! Yeah, that'll do it. The highest it's gotten this year is 115° F. Even if it hasn't gotten that hot recently, it still gets hot af. Not very comfy to be walking around. Took my kids to Marshalls and Ross, and the short walk to the store made me hot. Even inside the store, it was not very comfortable. That blue dress is long and traps heat. Oof.

Thanks for the compliments. I appreciate that.

Just got home from Doctor. Got my first hormone shot. Now the slow change starts.

Dear Faith:
WOW, this is absolutely great news....  there is not much that is more affirming than a "blind" passing test....  on the phone, they could not see you but your voice was obviously feminine and passing as female!!!!!

Write this down in your journal!!! Terrific news for sure.

Thanks for posting and sharing.
Hugs and hugs and hugs,
