hi ladies, Been a while since i posted. So far 2015 has been a struggle but definitely better that 2014. i find my presenting s Kelly most of the time but have been taking advantage my male self when it is convenient like o going to court or when i am get up late and have a appointment or going to sporting events. I also have decided to get back to doing triathlons signing up for e of them. when i train i train as Kevin but that is all a out to change.hit some major accomplishments this week, went to picnic as Kelly that had a couple hundred people there. I also bought my first women's bathing suit and have used the woman's restroom and changing room. My confidence level is much higher l stopped and bought some work out clothes so will do everything as Kelly from here on out.

Hi Kelly, happy for you that this year is better than last. Really happy that you are able to start to move to full transitioning, counting that down for myself now...

Thank you for the kind word ladies... So I am full time finally. Still find myself having to give my self a pep talk before going in to some places. The one next obstacle will be in July when I return to my hometown after 5 years away. All my friends and family know that i am transitioning but have not seen me since i left town. Well thanks again everyone, hope you have a great weekend
