T levels are 34 whatevers per thingamawoppers.    ng/l?  You know what I mean.  Important thing is I'm unquestionably not a dude in the bloodstream!

Happy moment #B was coming up with the idea of cutting the toe off the end of a sock and using this as a really thick wristband for my left arm, which has given me twice the power and control over the accordions I play folk music on. This is something I've been struggling with for 6 years! I've put I don't know how many hours into this problem; finding this simple solution is a massive relief, boost for my self esteem, and confirmation that all that time and money wasn't in vain. Music is such a huge part of my life, I wouldn't be here without it, seriously.

This whole month has kinda rocked for me, really.    Hope everyone's days and months and years work out for the best!

I had a great weigh in this morning! I am officially down to 100lbs lost since last December!!!

I have my best friend back.  It was very expensive and may not yet be out of the woods, but he doesn't have cancer or tumors.  Here's a pict which prompted his going to the vet.  I'm so happy I can afford his treatment.  He's my best and most favorite person out there.

Oh wow he's gorgeous! X

It was at the weekend so sorry for cheating slightly! I had my first dinner party as Molly and it was great! We had such a laugh and my friends didn't bat an eyelid! X

thank you!!

Hi, I am in such a good place today mentally, as last night I  went out with my Friend to a pub as me. First time out in public. And and the 'audience' were static, i.e. meals and chatting in the bar area, brightly lit, a few looks but nothing more, so cool. Another milestone passed, but long way to go. So very pleased with myself, just got ready and went for it. Having a friend who talks non stop and is in the middle of her Real life experience helps) Had a really good 2-3 hours there and got a welcome back at the end when we left - that's started to get rid of a few of my transphobia issues). They will see me again I'm sure.
Next milestone please...

I got my latest blood work back: T is off the scale low, and E is right in the range it should be.     HRT script renewed for 6 months.  Yippee!

Way to go, Katie!  Nothing like a night out with friends to build the confidence.

I shed about 60 lbs last winter too, it's a great feeling to be rid of bulk like that.  Congrats!

And booked my non-human best friend in for a full grooming tonight - not certain how to post a pic of my Rough Collie - Elle, she's getting old now but the gentlest of dogs I know, so love her.
She so chose my as I went to the breeder (I have full champions and Crufts or whatever history for her - Her name is  Tiganlee Last Chance) - Loads of dog puppies but she came up to me and weed on my foot - so cute I was marked by her...
Lover her so - Ill have to look up how to post pics here or just put her as Avatar
Love Katie 

OMG - only 42 LB lost... need to get moving I think
Katie 

Congratulations on the weight loss and non-human best friend

I'm so happy for you, that's just fantastic news!.

Fanta (my dog) continues to get better.  He was very interested in food tonight.  I got choked up watching him eat:)

I had another happy today too.  We had a discussion about the bromance from force awakens, and I realized I'm drinking tea from my mini mouse cup, have clear painted nails, an wearing a pink and blue jacket discussing gay love and nobody batted an eye that I was an anomaly.  I think it might be easy to out myself at work.  Nobody cares:)

I don't know if it is psychological or physical, but I'm definitely having quick turn around on some HRT effects! Saw Star Wars episode 8 today and was crying at the stupidest stuff.
