Skiing my legs into exhaustion in very wind affected pretty funky powder.Oh and getting the car back from a frisky sideways slide on the access road.That was fun! At the end of the day I looked terrible(hair a mess,snotty face,general effects of the cold but I had the stupidest grin on my face and it didnt even matter when I reversed my car into someones bull bars at the end of the day.

Took back an awful hairpiece a friend got me as part of the starter girl package she bought for my birthday and got a nice foundation brush and powder brush. Not her fault just not my thing or hair color. Can't wait to try them! Beauty 360 bamboo handled with synthetic bristles. So soft!

Haven't had a lot of dreams for the past month but two nights in a row in my dreams I'm female in them.

I had a couple small steps the past few days. I've decided to get my ears pierced hopefully in the next two weeks. I also bought couple pairs of girl pants in person at the store. Just casual/comfy stuff! Pink with Heartbreaker down on leg and another pair that is leopard print. =D

The thing that made me happy today though was that I had a "I don't give an eff!" moment and went out in my pink pants to the store while in guy mode. It was just a little thing but I'm still taking little steps and it made me smile!

Female dreams are the best.

Forget the new brushes, Sweetie just blew my mind! I told her about them and she said to take them back, she wouldn't let me use cheap brushes.

We were on our way to the outlet center because she needed foundation from the Bare Minerals outlet. Taking the brushes back bummed me out, but I understood her point. We got there and she got help for what she needed. When she was done she told the saleswoman, "this is gonna hurt, but do you have anything to hide his beard shadow." I never expected that from her, this bothers her so much!

Went out for lunch with my mother today. A warm sunny day sitting outside a cafe. Then we went shopping for a few things for her garden in the nursery... at the checkout the woman said to us "have a nice afternoon, ladies".

It's been 18 months since I've been presenting as female in public and that never gets old.

I took my daughter out to buy back to school clothes this afernoon.  We went to the store where my oldest son is one of the managers.  Most of the employees know my daughter because she has been there many times.  It was only my second visit.  One of the employees saw us walk in and said hi xxxxx's sister.  She asked if I was xxxxx's mother.  My son kind of nodded yes and she goes hi xxxxx's mother.  She was quickly told that I was actually his father and I am transgender and she was shocked because she was sure I was his mother.  Made me feel great and feel like I am passing pretty well in public.

I am fighting urges to eat ice cream.
Successful for some time yet... it feels like a week but might be one and half.

And besides, it is Sunday... every weekend I have two days to be full time.

Had a great time at the Rebellion punk festival, met some old mates, made some new ones, discovered new bands, ate and drank too much. A few other transgendered people there, a girl on a stall,Jenna Talia(!), the singer with Glitter Trash who is awesome(I met her after her show and she's really nice and got a photo). Another girl I met while watching UK Subs, and a very attractive F2M  skinhead with his mates who fully accepted him and me.  Met Vice Squad and Charlie Harper again and Jenna from Glitter Trash.

As it's  my birthday today (36th) I did a pedicure on myself

It's the 3rd one so far and rather sloppy but at least it's something.
My parents hate this (my dad hates me doing feminine things; my mother told me last time "why do you need to put these chemicals on you").

Edit: today my Mom told me: "I'm ok with you painting your nails (toenails obviously) but please cut you fingernails".

What made me happy?

I got my blood test results today... my liver and kidneys are in the mid-normal range, and I'm no longer pre-diabetic. That means I can eat normally again! (However, because of a bad bad breakup after a torrid love affair with my old boyfriends Jim Beam and Jack Daniels, I think I'll stay away from them though.)

It is amazing the body's ability to heal with proper diet and exercise.

I will celebrate by heading to the gym... ta!~

Good girl.. you will find you don't need that to be happy.. I used to love hydrocodone.. now if I have surgery throw away what I don't use... I used to self medicate.. way to go.. enjoy the gym and the ride.

Today I was in court as an expert witness for a case with one of my software clients that I also do IT work for. My testimony was the tipping point for him to win the case by proving the validity of an E-MAIL that the defendant (the person he was suing) claimed wasn't his. My testimony proved that he lied under oath that discredited his claims. Besides helping my client rightfully win his case, I didn't even think about wether I passed or not or if my voice was good enough. My confidence has been so good that I was only nervous about the testimony itself. My voice stayed feminine (I don't even have to think about it anymore as it just comes naturally) and the judge and attorneys just saw me as a professional woman that I am.

Just recieved my Cali ID in the mail today.

It's very empowering to finally see that little "F" there on that card.  *3*

My hair still looks like s**t though in the pic, but YAY F LETTERS!

Way to go girl!  Congrats!

I love seeing that F on mine when ever I have to show ID.  It is very empowering!

Way to go Sydney!  It must make you very proud to have done that.  Did your status ever come up as part of a defense tactic to try to discredit you?  Having testified only a couple of times before I like asking the questions much more than answering them.
