On Dec 28, 2016 I had an epiphany. I finally figured out that decades of increasing anger and rage were due to hiding and suppressing who I was, it only took a few minutes for me to realize that I needed to transition. It was an act of self-preservation. I knew the path I was on would have brought me to an early end. Note: some of the dates may not be exact, but they are close.
31 Jan 2017 I told someone, my electrologist!
12 Feb 2017 I told my wife.
23 Mar 2017 I started HRT.
11 Oct 2017 I told my manager, HR, and one co-worker.
26 Dec 2017 I told my daughters.
25 Jan 2018 The first day I ever dressed as Jessica.
05 Feb 2018 Completed my legal name change.
16 Feb 2018 I came out at work.
17 Feb 2018 Visited a hair salon, got my ears pierced, got some makeup.
19 Feb 2018 Jessica's first day at work.
11 Mar 2018 I told my parents.
Love always -- Jessica Rose
