Month 5

October 31, Day of the dead, Halloween; just a fun spooky time for everyone! It also is the beginning of my 5th month on hormones. Woot! I will get around to posting a lot of my pictures here soon. I have just been so busy at work with all the overtime we have been having, oh well, it will look good on the paycheck for Christmas. There have been some definite changes in how I look; my waist has begun to shrink, giving me the start of a hourglass figure, and butt has begun to really round out as well. According to my girlfriend, my face has changed somewhat, but I really don't see it yet. I think probably, my biggest wait right now is the chance to work on my voice.I should have a chance here very soon.
I have been trying to write down notes of my transition and different blogs from other sites; I felt it was time to make this blog and put everything I have done in one place. So, bear with me, and I will get things running as soon as I can. Anyways, I hope all of you ghosts, goblins, vampires, and werewolves....out there have a wonderful Halloween.

Another Step in the Right Direction

The last two weeks were very good to me. I had attended my first GIC (Gender Identity Center) meeting and got meet new girls who I can relate with and after talking with one; found out that she does Electrolysis. I immediately set up an appointment for the next week. The appointment went great, and she her prices were non-taxing. We even sat their talking up a storm about different music groups, TV shows, and anime. I have not had that much fun as my female self since I started HRT. It was a wonderful feeling, and I can't wait till I can do it again.

Feeling a Bit of Anxiety

Well, I have had a decent day today; got plenty of sleep, no stress, saw some friends; a regular nice day. The only problem was, I stopped at my Mom's place today to say hi. Right now I have not come out to her yet, and I am not quite ready for that step. But, when I said hi, we hugged like normal, but I forgot I was wearing my training bra. She did not say anything, but I know she felt it, and she began saying things that just weirded me out some without actually saying anything bad.
First she made the comment about my earrings ( she has known I have had those for a while now) and how I changed to small hoops instead of studs. Second she made the comment about my shirt ( a wolf t-shirt she got me from Florida) and if it was fitting me okay. The third thing was, as I was leaving she made the comment that my hair looks real nice and that I look healthy and began to really pour on the affection.
I am not sure what to think of this right now, as tomorrow she has a phone interview for a job in Florida, and if she gets it, she will be leaving. So, I don't know if how she was acting was because she might be leaving state for a new job in which we will be thousands of miles apart, or if it was she is starting to suspect what is going on with my transitioning, or if it is even some of both. Just a little background, My Mom and I have always been really close, even after my Dad and her got divorced. In fact, we only live about 3 blocks away from each other at the moment.
On another note, I am going to a meeting tomorrow at the Gender Identity Center of Colorado, and this will be my first visit. I know they will treat me right, but it is another step in the right direction for me; just away from my safe zone (or home). This is also getting to me as I am a bit nervous on that. I will get the information I need for continuing my journey, but on a more grander scale.
