I have decided to get my nails done after the holidays. I will spending a week with parents over Christmas weekend . They don't know about my plans to transition, so doing it before then wouldn't be in my best interest. Active length is what I want . There would be minimal interferance with routine activities . The thought of it make me happy , just another expressiion of the inner me :)

Debts are a killer when it come transitioning. I will be rid of two debts within the next six months. It will let me get some of the physical and annoying stuff done (facial hair comes most to mind ) I so dislike having to shave my face but I like letting it grow even less. How money effects how fast a person can get things done is astounding . As for getting insurance to cover surgery next to impossible.When will the realize that covering these thing is far cheaper the forcing off the grid.

Thing are getting better here. An anti discrimination ordinence has made trangendered life easier . We now also appears to have a shoe store that sells plus sizes right in the heart of downtown . I've looked at their prces though ... a bit pricey. if the store does well that may change
Big move

I haven't posted in awhile . The big news is that I am preparing to undergo a legal name change thus making the identity I present here the only identity I will live with for the rest of my life> Sometimes I wonder why I waited so long to do this.Maybe I was inspired by the big changes in our country. If the country is ready to take on the coming challenges , why should I not take this opportunity to right my life and live that life I feel I should have always lived ? The other day I was at work .I had use the restroom . I walked into the womens room without ever thinkiing about it . I took my body along for the ride . It is time for me to full out at work . Although I do this with caution ,, the timing feels right
This is the year

I have decided that this year is the year I will transition. Living 24/7 would simplify some aspects of my life. Switching back and forth is becoming a pain to me. I've resolved to come out to my parents and siblings And then go through the process of legal name change. My employer has included gender identification in their discrimination/harrassment policy , so I'm not particularly concerned about my employment . I will start saving the nessesary money to pay for the fees that I must pay to complete the name change. I am ready to live my life openly. I pray that the problems I may face be small . I resolve to be living totally female by the end of this year.
Turning the contest off

Today , I decided that although the rating system was created in an attempt to bring people together , I turned off my rating feature. I began to feel somewhat like a piece of meat , being inspected for perfections and flaws . That , Dear friends, is not what I'm about . The picture in my profile is one that I love for many reason ...none of which are meant to be seen as better or more beautiful than anyone else . I'm wondering why this would be important to some , therefore , I will speculate but not publically. I will watch the others in their persuit of the ellusive "Top 10" and vote for those I really like ... the rest will never get anything negetive from me .
