This isn't transition related, but I walked 5 miles today. This booty is tired.

I don't think this topic has to have something to do with transitioning if walking makes you feel good then it made you happy today and congratulations the furthest I've ever made it was 4 miles lol

If you can't accept yourself,  how can you expect others to accept you?

Well after my Doctor retired back in July I got a call that he did refer me to another doctor and I have an appointment February 25 2019, so that worked out.

I just got my first appointment for voice therapy this morning for the 18th of this month. I also made contact with transgender care and sent in my facial profile pictures for FFS. This day has just turned into A 10.

Hugs,
Donica.

Yes Sonja, very exiting, at one point I was answering one of her questions and mid sentence I forgot what I was saying, I was just very exited to be there! [emoji846] actually I think that happened a lot throughout my visit haha I had a bunch of questions to ask, but my excitement got the better of me and I only remembered a few. Now I have them written down for my next appointment.

I'm still really trying to figure out the name thing, sometimes I wonder if I should change my name at all. Then I realize that my name only has a masculine variant and I feel like crying because it's not easy. Crying won't help so I continue the search, it's somewhere in my mind, I just need to find it. I have about 6 months because after that I'll look more and more feminine [emoji846]

Names have a cultural meaning or history that isn't always clear and there may be several correct answers.  If you've run into this, step back and think about the root-origin of your past/present name and see if that translates into another language... something connected to your ethnic heritage, or maybe not. 

My previous name (Ken) was chosen by my parents because it's both western and Japanese - there's a Kanji character for Ken.  I was a bit hesitant to lose that unique aspect.  But I am half Welsh and my new name has Welsh origins.  Just some ideas.

I spent the morning at the courthouse filing all my legal documents for name and gender change. It took all morning but I got it done. Wow!

Hugs,

Not sure if we should continue this conversation in this thread, but anyways I figured out that my name means wolf, a famous one at that lol Now it's time to lookup names about wolves, in female edition haha. I prefer cats though, felines in general so.... maybe I'll transition from canine to feline as well? [emoji81]

I did that with the help of Dr. Ley at the Meltzer Clinic.

I stopped at Kohl's on a whim and had a lovely conversation with the woman at the jewelry counter. Then, I browed the women's department and found two t-shirts that I just had to buy. I recently discovered V-neck t-shirts, and I love them; previously, all my t-shirts have been crew-necked. One is short-sleeved and plain white, which I find elegant; often, I think, less is more. The other is long-sleeved and has a complex pattern in pleasing colors and sparkles! I can't wait for an excuse to wear them.

That's great Katie. I wish we could have one a little closer to where I live (half way between San Francisco and San Diego). It's an expensive weekend ordeal for me. Perhaps one day.

Oh dear!!! Where's my head? I just missed the LA Pride 2018 in West Hollywood. That's close enough to drive out both days. I'll definitely be going to next years event.
