Decision Made & Going For It!

Hi Lilac,

We had an absolute great time with Danya during her visit. We have so much in common being "sisters" in the transgendered world. I just wish her visit would have lasted longer. :-\

I'm am looking forward to seeing you, Danya and everyone else at the upcoming MoM this August. I'm so excited that I can't wait!

And thank you for the compliment on my new hair style. No more hair cuts for a while through I do love the current length. I'm thinking seriously of keeping it this way for a while, but no shorter.

Well, just another tough day at the office. I am truly becoming convinced that the president of the company I work for is bi-polar. This is the only explanation I can come up with his actions and reactions to things.

This past week he has managed to make everyone in the office angry with him to the point that they either want to wrap their hand around his throat and strangle the life out of him or just walk out and believe me, if the economy was better, that's exactly what I would do. Several of my coworkers have actually hung the phone up on him, mid-conversation.

I have had to take two aspirins every afternoon this week to sooth my splitting headache so much so that I'm starting to become a "aspirin junkie."

The only good thing is that it's Friday and I'll have two days away from him. And then my spouse wonders why I go out for a few cocktails every Friday night. This man is enough to drive anybody to drink.

The only good thing I can say about him is at least he finally has his pronouns down when he refers to me.

What a week. TGIF!

Hi Erica Ann,

I can relate, at least in part, to what you are experiencing at the office. My direct boss is a great guy who has always been very supportive. It took even him months to consistently get his pronouns right, while a number of coworkers had no problem from the start.

Having a difficult boss can be hell. I've had several.

I feel very frustrated with my own job. I've been putting in very long hours for roughly 2 years. I keep thinking this will change but it never does. Consultants tell us that they know of no other company that is able get by with one of 'me'. One person who does everything I do with systems they are very familiar with.

I'm glad I've got a job at a company that supports my transition, but if the economy were better I would definitely be looking elsewhere.

I hope you manage to have a relaxing weekend.

Hugs,

Danya

Hi Everyone,

Well, I have some great news to share. Recently I've noticed that my bras were getting a bit tight so I stopped at Victoria's Secret the other day and had myself measured.

I have now graduated to a size 38 D cup. WOW! I couldn't believe it. When she first brought the bra I had picked out into the fitting room, I thought "no way is that going to fit me. It's huge." I tried it on and much to my surprise, it fit beautifully.

I think I just about floated out of the store on air I was so excited.

WOW a D cup! When I first started HRT I always told myself that I would be happy to make it to a B cup. Now 39 months later, I've doubled my original expectations!

It's fantastic when I look down at myself and see the size of my "girls." It just blows me away!

WOW!!! Thats great Erica. Christina always wanted bigger boobs. LOL I'm sure she would have gotten bigger ones too. I am very happy for you. Hope to see you soon.

Love and hugs, Lilac

Thank you lilac. I'm sure that Christina would have gotten them for sure. I do miss her too!

Well, as of last night that old saying now applies to my life..."There is no gravity, the World sucks!"

Hi Everyone,

My life has gotten much better since my last post. My spouse and I ran across a very rough spot in the road of our relationship, mostly because of something I did, but she has since forgiven me and we have hopefully moved beyond this whole issue. One can only hope.

Hi Erica Ann,

You already know
[/quot

e]
that I was very concerned about you

after I read "There is no gravity, the World sucks!" I am very happy to hear things are looking up. Both you and Ellen are very special people to me and I wish you the best.

Hugs,

Danya

I don't know why I keep doing this to myself. You would think I would have learned by now. :-\

I went out yesterday and bought a Mother's Day card for my Mom. I signed it and drove over to her house to drop it off. Her garage door was open and my brother was outside in the front yard speaking to one of their neighbors when I drove up and parked in one of the guest parking spaces.

He saw me pull up and came around the corner of their building, apparently to verify that it was indeed me. As I was getting out of my car I saw him duck around the corner and called out something to my Mother. By the time I got to their front walk, they had both hurried inside the house, closed and locked the front door so I just left her card tucked into the crack between the storm door and the frame. As I came back around the corner, they had also closed the garage door which was open when I first walked by.

It was almost comical if the whole incident hadn't been so sad and childish. It was like, OMG let's run inside and lock the door before the big bad transsexual gets us.

And these two people consider themselves sane and rational adults and think I'm the one that's mentally ill!

EricaAnn no one can dissapoint you like family. I am sorry that has happened but I think you have a good grasp of the situation. You are the sane one. Next year you might need a different kind of Mother's Day card.
