Most of my collection thus far comes from one of two spots-walmart and amazon.

Cheryl was the one who painted my nails in college. i had a nickname resembling a certain celebrity who was making news for painting his nails, so she was like, lets do it. so there i was at like 19, on a conservative college campus, with metallic blue paint. and that is on our list again

i don't mind trying, but ill be honest-when i would travel, to take all the makeup with me was...a lot...because i just dont know what i want to do or not do, so i bring everything, and then i overpack. and then i get there, and i get lazy. having her to show me, and having her to go have a glass of wine with, knowing that she knows and knowing that she expected it will be cheryl and jamie? that's what i need.

its funny that way. when i came to terms, it was mostly me around the house, without my family knowing, and i was happy getting by with panties under my "normal" clothes. then as i traveled, i hung out in the hotels with jeans and a top, or even a dress. i dabbled more in going more all in. and every time i have, it's kind of like...OK, i need to top that, because doing the little bits like at the beginning aren't cutting it. on one hand, hearing that makes me worry it's more a fetish, but i and my therapist agree it's not. it's more me knowing that i just achieved more happiness than i had before, and anything less than that is just not worth my time. sounds a little crazy, but thats me. which worries me, because i am going to get all dressed, makeup, hair, nails...go OUT with her...and then will i be able to put jamie back in the bottle? and if so...for how long? fun times ahead...

Hi Everyone

I was browsing Susan's and obviously I found this old thread, although I have mentioned before when I changed my life around, I will mention it here as well and a brief summary.  So without further ado:

•   I change my life around in Feb 1989 I was 30 years old.
•   Started HRT Mar 1989.
•   Working and living as a female since Feb 1989
•   I had SRS in Feb 1991

Words cannot describe how happy my life has been since Feb 1989.

Love and Hugs

Interesting coincidence, mine's name was "Jessica" but I don't recall the last name. I don't know how much money was there, but I got out of there quickly and left it behind too!

That is great! I'm so happy for you.
It is always a wonderful thing to be accepted for who you are.

Aside from kerstosis pilaris on my legs and arms, my skin is as soft and smooth as most women's.

My brothers say I am better as a big sister.  Mom,says I look better in a dress than her. 

I did have a breast augmentation at 21 redone at age 36, plus my journey has brought me to
my true self that stayed. 

Mom did find one like my story that has inspired me to stay as Adrianna.  It was this one
shown on my 45th birthday

In all the gloom, there was a little ray of light. I had done my usual change to non female clothes to black skinny jeans and a Queen Elizabeth Cunard polo. Ok not the most male.

My hair has grown a bit, and i went into the chippy to get me some dinner after a 3hr drive home. On the way out two guys were coming in, they held the door and said "there you go love"

It's all in the hair, and the big boobs lol.

I used to have a lot of male fails before I had to male cut my hair, this is the first for some time.

On another subject, I believe K has finally accepted me. When I left on Monday I had got dressed female to save changing in the car and she never gets up until I had left. But this Monday she came done and saw me "oh I thought you had left" she said. I said "I had a lot to get in the car" "drive safe and remember to put tracker on".

A few months ago she would have had a face like thunder, and would have stormed upstairs. This is one of many hints.

Plus we are now great friends. I do not want to push it too hard, but I feel we can talk now.

Wow Lori! I just spent an hour reading as much as could of your journey. Even though our life paths were quite a bit different, we still have a lot in common. I actually learned some new things about myself by reading your story. Thank you for posting this and I will be watching for updates.
