Huge relief from acceptance

So, I came out to an old girlfriend from highschool the day after Christmas. I say girlfriend but we were closer to good friends than dating, and we've stayed that way even after our break-up. I kinda feel bad for my timing as another friend came out on the same day. She's now entered wing-girl/big sis mode and is very accepting and applauding of her two trans friends.

Also, the first person I came out to has come out to me as trans on Christmas, something she's been battling with much worse than I have. We've been talking quite a bit and it all seems to be going somewhere deeper and more meaningful than just a friendship.

Even better, despite her attitude, my mother clarified to me that she is in fact accepting of my being Morgan. Though she's been rough on me lately, I've been finding she's also been more protective of me as well. She's done so much for me and despite her harshness at times, I love her all the same. Everything she's been through in 2015 has broken her emotionally and my coming out probably didn't help that. She's also said that this is my journey to take and that I should only come to her when I really need her help. She's been trying to cut the cord, so to speak, so the words were understood.

Now, to top this all off: I got a promotion at work!!! Starting next week, I'll be full-time with guaranteed benefits and holiday bonuses! Still haven't come out there and honestly, I don't plan to. I'm considering finding an endo in the area I'm moving to this year to save myself from hassle and confusion. But this job is what I need to open up the transfer opportunities I've been trying to find.
