Good for you. I never liked wearing any male clothes since childhood, they always felt stupid. Only did it some to make others happy, my father.....yuck with that long ago. Give me a pretty dress anyday!

I'm doing well on my Atkins diet & have lost 20 to 25 pounds. I sure know how to bake oopsie bread. It just feels so good to be a woman.

Congrats Francis Ann

Let's just say that this was a missed opportunity to have been really, really happy.  Giving out candy tonight for Halloween, a lady brought her two children to the door for treats.  I was dressed head to toe en femme.  Just as she was leaving she commented "What a nice costume!"  I politely replied: "Thank You"  As I was walking away from the door, I thought to myself: You really blew it! You should have followed up your thank you with, but it's not a costume.

Still pretty new at this. Guess I'll have to wait till next Halloween to make it good.

Hugz,

Good for me. I finally got the nerve to use my NuFree hair removal system (kind of a wax hair removal system) & it works great, happy dance. Now I can keep the remaining facial & other so ugly hairs under control. Rip those nasty things off my body!!!  NyFree is a great system used by professional salons. If you have unwanted hairs give it a try you will love it.

Thanks girl friend. I hope you are well, hugs & take care, Francis

Today I fixed my neck wallet that got torn up a bit. I also had a great day. Was 12+ hours outside home.

I went out en femme for Halloween, which is of course not really a costume for me, but it was the only night I could be sure that nobody would give me guff.

Anyway, I had a sort of startling realization that I'm fairly sure I was passing.  First, without even having any makeup on I got carded at the grocery store when picking up a bit to drink.  When she saw my picture with short-cropped hair and a beard, she gave out a good giggle.  There was just something about that giggle... I didn't have any makeup on yet so I had a visible facial hair shadow, but I think she read me as female initially, then it clicked when she saw my ID.

Later on, with makeup on, I ducked into a bar to use the restroom and to avoid complications I just went to the men's room.  Hardly odd on Halloween.  So, when I came out of the restroom I heard a guy go, "Whoa! That chick just came out of the men's room!"  That felt pretty good.

My driver's license update is done!
My social security update is done!

I need the proper stuff to make to me in the mail but it's done and all that.  No more discomfort when the clerk asks to see my id when I pay with credit card.  No more worries with random encounters with police or some such thing.

Not only do I have permission by the government to be me but I really can't be anything else. 
Yes, I'm babbling and I haven't even had anything to drink.  Wow, I had no idea this moment would feel so good. 

I had a long convo with mum about other things and she let it slip that shed always love me no matter what and i was super super close to come out to her. Once i do, and if she accepts me, i will go full time female.

Have spent a month working on a defect at work on my code.
Very difficult and much head scratching or is that nits?
Turns out not built correctly by the developers.
Solved and signed off for production first go.

Amazing how without crippling GID I can get stuff done so much better.

Today I wore my girl jeans down to the laundry room in my apartment. I'm still not out to anyone, and nobody looked at me much at all, but I guess this was technically my first time wearing women's clothes in public.

Clothes I'm indifferent about. I pass in male clothing and I sometimes throw something on quick when I'm going to the store. But it's not like I make a habit about it.

today is my last work day as I prepare to leave for my grs surgery next monday the 9th I plan to be off site a month at least and so excited I can not stand it, the down side I am now totally in man o paus from my absence of hormones  but it is worth the discomfort knowing this should be my last time for this to happen.

YAYYYY!!!!!

I just used a public women's room for the first time I'm a little shaken from making such a big step but it felt so right!

I normally avoid public bathrooms because I feel super awkward in the men's room.

Jerri, Good for you girl friend. I know you will feel so much better about yourself soon. It will feel strange being off our normal hormones but you will be OK. I've had to stop for surgeries before. I'm sure you will feel great with a vagina. I wish my surgery was next week. My body has always looked & felt so strange with extra stuff attached, I've always been female since childhood.  I really like men & so hope somehow I can finally complete my GRS, then heal up & hopefully enjoy a normal sex life. I have a well endowed nice black man courting me now. It would be so nice to enjoy him completely if my body were correct & ready. Good luck to you. Post later on this thread to let us all know how you are doing, please.

Got a letter today from "Breastscreen New South Wales" inviting me for a mammogram. And I hadn't even asked for one?!

The other week we got a letter from the council addressed to "Mses" - ok, they wNt money, but still........

I had to cancel my electrolysis appointment for tomorrow because I have hardly any facial hair for my electrologist to zap 

The only thing I have is a few small ones trying to come through under be chin, but they are thin and soft and not long enough. Next week she might have something to zap.

I had a god awful early morning flight from LAX to Philadelphia. Up at 3:15 to get ready and drive to the airport. What made me happy was the flight was not very crowded and I got a row of seats to myself so I could lay down and sleep for 3 hours. I get to spend 4 days in Philadelphia and explore one of the USA's great places and hang out with some great people.

Had my first endo appointment this afternoon. She was great and very understanding and did not act like a gatekeeper. She even thought I was already on HRT. She went ahead and gave me a prescription for estradiol. From my research it's a larger dose then usual for starting.

I was surprised she didn't pit me on spironolactone first. But she said she usually doesn't prescribe spiro and likes finasteride better. And she will add that during my next appointment in January. So now blood draw tomorrow then she said I'm good to go.
