long time so I thought I'd just check in and bring everyone up to date on what's happening in my life.
Things continue to go very well for me. Still working at the same job, which normally might not be much to report, but in today's economy, that's very good news. The weekly paycheck doesn't hurt either. At the urging of my employer, I took a 1 day seminar on Green Construction technology back in January, studied very hard for about 6 weeks and recently took the test to become an LEED Green Associate. A passing score for this test is 170 and I achieved a 186, which by the way is a better score that my instructor got when he took his exam. I am now a fully credentialed LEED GA. A little continuing education never hurts and it looks good on the resume considering that green technology is the up and coming trend in the construction industry.
My electrolysis is finally beginning to wind down. After spending almost 70 hours with my current technician under the somewhat intense pain of having an electrified probe pushed into one's face at each hair location, the results are finally paying off as I have not needed to shave my face or neck in almost 4 months now. The results are amazing. My skin textured has changed so much and my complexion is so much finer. It's just remarkable and I'm loving it!
My weekly hormone regime continues at a dosage of 0.3 CC's of estrodiol and believe it or not, even after being on female HRT for almost 4 years, my breast are currently experiencing another growth spurt over the past 3 weeks. I'm now up to a full "D" cup without any enhancement or help from my bra, if you know what I mean.
This is another thing that I'm really loving!
Dilation continues and is now pretty much a daily part of my life though I'm now down to performing this task once a day, 5 days a week. It's my understanding that my GRS surgeon, Marci Bowers, is moving her practice from Trinidad, CO. to San Francisco in the next few weeks. For all of us girls that live out east and in the Midwest, this will mean additional expense to use her, i.e.; additional travel cost and knowing San Fran, most likely higher lodging and food expenses, not to mention the discomfort of having to sit on an airplane for a longer period of time. Sitting was not my favorite thing to do for about 6 weeks after my GRS.
Continuing to get out to the nightclubs on occasion though I have cut way back on these activities. I guess that living full time as myself for almost 3 years now has diminished the need to get out on the weekends in order to live my life as me, but don't get me wrong, I still enjoy partying and I still continue to welcome everyday as it provides another opportunity to just be me and the woman I have always been.
