Never had what I would call strong dysphoria just a desire to change. But then I think I am the exception to the "rule". If the desire is there you will work your way forward even if its slowly.

Well, hello again. It's been awhile since I've written anything here.

Five minutes later...

As soon as I started typing my corgi, Charlie, rolled over on his back with his paws in the air and looked at me as if to say, "This belly ain't gonna rub itself, y'know." He's the best dog I've ever had and if you've ever known a corgi you know why. You also know what a maniacal little tyrant he can be. Loaf of bread on legs that thinks he's the lord of all he sees. Our cat does everything in her power to dispel him of this notion, yet he remains undeterred.

I don't have a lot of blog posts because I often feel like I should have something relevant to say regarding my discovery of Jen. Most of the time, though, my thoughts and emotions don't change much. I don't want to be the girl who carries on about the same things over and over again, so I keep quiet if there's nothing original to say.

I could write about day-to-day, mundane, my boring life stuff, I guess. Maybe I will, even if it's just a quick check-in. It makes me feel good knowing that someone reads this stuff, especially when they care enough to leave a reply. It helps me feel that sense of connection and belonging that I was looking for when I came to Susan's in the first place. Sometimes I feel slightly detached from the community because I haven't begun my transition yet and you all reel me back in.

Thank you for that and thanks for reading.

Peace, love and happiness,

Jen

What you think is mundane might be very interesting to us Jen. Stick it down anyway. I haven't really got much of a clue what to put on my blog as I haven't come out fully either. I just tend to document what I'm up to and pose the odd question. Download my thoughts from time to time. Maybe just do that?

I feel like my blog is a sort of personal notice board where people can leave me messages or ask me anything.

I just post my thoughts and what I have been up to, helps clear my brain . I dont see many folks in my day to day life but I feel I have friends here.

Jen!

Coming here and sharing your thoughts is in itself, a transitional step!

Hugs!

Let go of the things that no longer serve you... Let go of the pretense of the false persona, it is not you... Let go of the armor that you have worn for a lifetime, to serve the expectations of others and, to protect the woman inside... She needs protection no longer.... She is tired of hiding and more courageous than you know... Let her prove that to you....Let her step out of the dark and feel the light upon her face.... amg🌸

@Jen T. 
Dear Jen:
I agree with the reply comments authored by @tgirlamg  @davina61 and  @Stottie Girl

You can consider your Blog thread as your HOME here on the Forum where your readers and
followers can  find you to leave their comments and to share with you. 

Also your Blog thread is your shared personal journal that you can use to write down your thoughts
and comments as you navigate your journey and life endeavors.

I have some older Blog threads here from several years ago that I still go back to
read what I had shared...  great memories of my trials and tribulations as I documented
my own journey.

Jen T.
please continue Blogging... your have readers and avid followers including myself
that are eager to read your postings and your life endeavors.

The pleasure was mine, Jen!

Our household is similar to yours: two dogs and one cat (Dort). Dort terrorizes the yellow Lab (LeBron) but is wise enough to give a wide berth to Rosa (a mixed-breed shelter dog).
