My Mum came to see me today, I was planning on today being the day I put my foot down to ban her from using my old male name as I changed it about a year & a half ago & she still doesn't use my new name.
When she stepped through the door she handed me a carrier bag with some lovely feminine tops in it, she said they were too small for her & she decided to give them to me instead of the charity shop (which always used to get her cast offs), I decided to put off putting my foot down about my name so I wouldn't ruin this perfect moment.

Also whilst walking home from a friends house I noticed that my chest has developed a certain "bounce" to it 

Sitting backstage of a show and everyone has finally decided since I have been here for a long time, I generally know what I'm doing. Currently sewing pants and going to grease back my "nephews" hair. I finally came out to everyone today and wasn't surprised by my family's refusal to call me Alistair. Or male in any form. They are going to wait for me to change my mind apparently.

I got to finally stay home all day and do nothing, YaY! It's about time. Tomorrow it's back to my daily grind, lol!

Congrats on coming out to your family. Sorry to hear they aren't referring to you in the proper gender but give them a little time for this to sink in. They'll realize in the long run that being trans isn't a choice.

I saw my GP today to discuss a letter I recieved from my gender clinic.

I now have a prescription for T-blockers & an appointment for 2 weeks time for the nurse to give me the injection.
The letter stated that my E dose shoud be doubled & I started that the day the letter arrived, in just over a week my hair has become smooth, shiny & managable.

I visited a couple yesterday who are both very good friends, as soon as their friends left her boyfriend & me had this brief discussion (in the company of his girlfriend so there was no hidden motive behind his words)

HIM: Wow your breast are really starting to show. . . . . sorry if that's offensive but I just had to mention it

ME: How can I possibly find a compliment like that offensive?

Then as I walked home I noticed how my chest is developing a certain bounce as I walk, i'm so happy I could sing (but I won't inflict THAT on you all, lol)

Congrats Jayne I am so happy for you

Received a call from the judge's secretary for my name change. I now have a court date of May 21st for my name change

Yes Jayne congratulations!!! I'm sooooo happy for you!!! I can't wait til that (or something close to it) happens to me, lol!

I see my Endo next week on Tuesday to find out about my bloodwork. I suspect some adjustments to my dosages.

Congrats Sydney. I know from your posts you've been working on this for a while. I'm hoping to get my letter for gender change next week. As for my name, I'm lucky in that it can be either boy or girl however I've decided to go by my middle name Allyda instead of my first, Phoenix.

I look forward to hearing your name has been changed in the near future!!

Today I found two cute cami's, one pink and one black and got them both. So nothing earth shaking but a great day none the less.

Hello Reaver,
         I see you and my friend Allyda are buds, pretty cool! I see that you are quite an artist too. One of the FtM buddies here at Susan's that I've become friends with is quite an accomplished cartoon artist and may be illustrating a children's book I'm writing. Small world anyway huh? With Ally you get no bull!

Yes. Ally is the one who showed me Susan's. I only can draw MLP style. I'd love to read that book when it comes out. As for with Ally, you get no bull, I don't need any more, I got one already. He's doing just fine, even if he is a bit of a brat.

Not today, yesterday, but it put a spring in my step all day today. I was chatting with an online friend who I had come out to a few weeks ago. First one I had, in fact. She invited me to a private channel and I found two other online friends there. She almost spilled the beans! I thought "why not?" and came out to them. They weren't just supportive, they were enthusiastic! I now have good friends I can count on to make sure I don't slack off or lose my nerve.

Oh I am. I have the black one on now. I tried the pink on 1st though and it looks great on me but I found out I needed to lengthen the straps just a little. So I experimented with the black one and now know just how much to lengthen them for that perfect fit and am doing the pink one now. I love cami's, they're comfy and cool. That's one thing I liked about these is the adjustable straps. I've another pink one, the one you saw in my webcam photo and it's straps are just a bit too long but it has no adjustments like these do.

Yea Auntie Shan Reaver and I had a rough couple of days with that bull. Today I had to crack him on the head between the eyes with an 18 inch pipe wrench!, lol! Let's just say the bull gave me no  more "bull" after that, lol!, he, he, he.

Reaver and her dad are the ones who took care of my cats while I was down south with Pat fishing and having fun. Now his dad and stepmom went on vacation so I'm trying to return the favor. Reaver and I also have a common interest in computers and gaming too.

Auntie Shantel is one of the best friends you can have Reaver, she'll never steer you wrong.
