You're loved. People are here for you

It's harder to love and create than hate and destroy. Love and creation takes more energy. Where hate and destruction can be done with a single word that can haunt you for a life time.

Huge hugs, Alana!

I hope today is brighter.

I'm sorry, Alana. There are going to be times like those. Just try to remember that it wasn't always that way - and it won't always be. You'll get through it. We're here for you no matter what.

Thank you for all the kind and encouraging words. I deeply appreciate them.  I'm feeling better, and not as down as I was yesterday.

Alana,


May your weekend be very nice!


Chrissy
Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

I've been waiting all week to get my bloodwork results back and find out my levels. Something fell through the cracks, and my testosterone levels were never included in my bloodwork. My estrogen level was 103. It was 41 when I had my bloodwork at the end of last summer.

I woke up this morning feeling confident this week would be a good week. When I did my makeup, I wore foundation, which I never do. I've been wanting to start wearing it more often. I hit Sephora on my way to work today, and bought some new makeup.

Glad you're having a good week so far and got to do your foundation. I'm sure you will have looked beautiful.

I feel like the intersection of dark and light. I have a dark soul residing in me but an intense draw to the powers of good. All around I feel the constant battle between darkness and light.

I've been having a very euphoric week. Changes from hrt are starting to become noticeable to me. The zenith of all of this euphoria is that I have to go bra shopping. My old bras aren't getting the job done.

I'll take it. 😁

I'm going to be doing a ton of shopping. Absolutely nothing I own fits correctly now.

As you progress you may wish to not get too many of anything as your body will change.
If money is not an issue, acquire away!  You can always donate as your figure changes.

I have got to the point where I donate one item when I acquire a like item.  But I do not buy that often or much anymore.  I have basically what I need.

Sometimes though, some clothes on display look so lovely.  .  .

Over the weekend, I bought a set of women's workout clothes. I found a set I really like, and they definitely pass as men's workout clothing. Androgynous I guess would be the correct choice of word for them... I wore the new clothes to the gym this morning, and they were insanely comfortable. I honestly forgot I was wearing them until I went to get my phone from my pocket to change the song I was listening to... I found a bunch of women's clothes that I plan to buy soon. Having clothing that fits my newfound curves is such a euphoric feeling.

I've had an enjoyable start to my week. I think doing my makeup everyday is giving me an extra boost. I took Friday off, and I'm going to get a pedicure, and Starbucks, and maybe walk around the mall. 😄
