Hi everyone,

I've been less active here recently because of my new position at work - i actually have work to do :)  But I am  still trying to keep up with reading entries!

It's been 2 months of living full-time as a woman, and about the same on hormones.  With the exception of being misgendered a couple of times it's been wonderful. Between this and my new job I don't think i've ever felt such contentment.

I do wish my sister would come around, but fortunately i've come out to other family members who have all been very supportive!

Next Monday (the 19th) my name officially changes, and my official gender (where I can change that). And when I see the endocrinologist again I plan to ask for referral (s) for a surgeon - if things continue as they are i'm hoping for top surgery next summer.

I'm still working on the "what else do I want/need?", but making some progress.  I stopped the volunteer gig that I had at a comedy club as it was no longer contributing anything to my life, and next Wednesday I start a new trans group at the lesbian/gay center.

I've donated most of my male clothing now (to ascnyc, an aids service group).

I'll stop this stream of consciousness now and catch up on some of your entries :)

xoxo

Christie

    So glad that you're so happy Christie, I knew from early on in your entries in this site that you'd get to where you need to be. I also have been very thin with my entries, it's due to life getting in the way !

    xoxo

    So happy to hear for the most part things are moving right along. Now is a good time to begin (if you haven't already) writing down places you need to change your name once you can officially do so along with documents needed such as birth certificates and figure out the order documents need to change, every state is slightly different, here is Oregon for example. I paid $107 for the process along with $5 for each copy I wanted as they are good to have as photo copies may not do the trick in some circumstances.
