I've never posted really any topics in the main section but I lurk so much and read so many of all of your threads.  The advice you peeps give out is always so nifty!  Well anyways...  Thanks to this site I have moved forward quite abit! 

I found a support group thanks to the site that helped bolster my confidence, gave me more make-up starter kits, others to speak with, headbands, clothes.  The only bad part is the commute to OKC each monday and the half a tank of gas just to go.  Other then that they really helped me out and even directed me to a doctor.

Which lead to me getting legal hormones!  No more internet stuffs!  She set me up to go for 6 months on three different kinds of pills.  I shall return for the checkup then!  While there I also got tested for hiv since I did lots of dumb stuff while younger trying to feel normal.  Clean!  Yay!  That day was awesome.  And all without a counselor/psychiatrist!  Bleck to all that waiting that didn't happen!  Which it was in part due to me starting on my own but meh!

Oh.. and the confidence the support group bolstered also let my friend Bailey finally get to me and so thus I purchased some so called unmentionables.  She got me to measure again as well.  I know how to measure my family knows how to sew sue me! ;p  But ya!  36a already on my own!  (Still growing faster then what will let me keep the current ones bought!   ) The stuff she convinced me to buy was cute and fit perfectly!  Barely over one year and already have that.  So pretty positive on that front. hehe  Don't want to jinx it to much though!

I even compared some old photos of me to the latest taken of me.  Not safe to post here sorry. ;p  But anyways!  Lots of curves in only a year!  And now I have legal hormones!  Things can only get better right?   And quite a few times this past month I have been told I do not look 26 and carry it very well.  Some of which were random peeps and the doctors staff! 

The past lil bit since I found that support group from here and followed more advice has really pushed me forward.  A few things are still slow but it is more of a cash issue since I only have small roofing jobs now and then.  If I can just find a more stable job quite a few other things such as the clothes department shall change drastically.

I mean I am still quite scared of many things such as the way peeps double take but I'll get used to it one way or another.  As long as things keep looking up to bolster me anyways.   And in large part it is all thanks to this site.  <3 you peeps.

Thank you for posting this interesting update Korlee

Haha!  I suppose that is one way to put it.  I did write it all like at 4am hehe.  I was just in a good mood and was browsing the forums.  Thought it might be fun to make it but man I write horribly late at night but oh.. well.  Life for the moment is giving me a smile so very little else matters.   hehe.  I know I'm just a lurker nobody really knows or cares about either but meh.  I'm just not a public person.  I hate stuff like facebook so I just lurk and read most of what is posted. ;p

I'm also not sure if it is sarcasm or not your reply.  If so I'm glad it went over my head because I view sarcasm very poorly at best.

Not sarchasim at all Korlee. I am never sarchastic with people I'm talking to. I may get a bit like that when talking about politicians and such. (But never to them directly).

One of the great things about Susans' is there is so much support.

I also want to say I am so happy that you felt confident enough to put that final comment. I'm pleased to clarify it. But equally, it is right that you should seek clarification.

We're friends here. Take care.

two things from me Korlee.

1.  Good news on going legal.  They are better than the net stuff and you get your levels tested too.

2. Double takes.  Get use to them.  They happen and for a variety of reasons.  Mostly it general has no bearing on being read.  If you have some height, I am 5' 10", I think it is because they don't see every many tall women.  Most marvel at tall women.

Happy your not offended then.  I was never very good at telling what peeps are saying in that way online.

Ya, she wants to wait and test me on that after 6 months since she has handled peeps like us for so long.  She pretty much knew how to handle before I even walked in on all of it.

Ya, I was told to expect it and I thought I was ready for it all.  Sadly after the past few times out really not in the slightest.  I was never very good at stares just as the other gender so this just kinda @.o with me.  I am 5'10 according to my last appointment but my license says 5'11 hehe.  However since I always tend to dress pretty casual without makeup or anything.  You know just like a headband, etc small stuff.  I mean peeps tell me I'm fine but I just doubt it.  If I can notice the bits of other stuff on me without trying others certainly can quite easy.
