Comments and compliments

-
 I have been pleasantly surprised by the amount of how many positive comments and compliments I have received so so many lovely comments and compliments since I came out and started my transition whether that was in the very early days or even now in the last few days, I am also sure I have shocked and surprised some friends who never knew anything about how I really felt or who I knew I have always been inside having tried my best to hide the real me for such a long time, I am  also sure that the reactions of certain people who didn't understand or interested to know why made me keep everything inside longer than I should have and made me feel unsure not only who to talk to but how to talk and be honest about how truly felt, that was then and quite a few years ago thankfully there has been so many changes in the last few years that people are more knowledgable and understanding now that does make a huge difference and the comments and compliments I have received never stop making me go wow,blush even make my day or better boost my confidence yes Nat I am very confident thank you but it doesn't mean that shouldn't be said or I don't appreciate hearing that, a lady said to me last week she could see how much my eyes are full of life and show my true happiness now I am a woman,to Pat my lovey friend who has helped me in so many ways.....telling me I am one of the bravest people she knows thank you Pat you see something I am not sure I see myself I wish I could have talked to you years ago but wish I knew how to talk to you all those years ago too.
Kim said I was loved maybe that's so sweet to know that, the lovely things Pam has said to me even her daughter Beki spending a few hours in Leeds last week with me and Pam it just felt very natural and normal but that's how it should be, there are so many people to mention that it's not possible to name every single one but once they read this blog I hope they know who they are and how much I appreciate their kind sweet lovely comments and compliments sorry Taybah I do have better legs a running joke we have, the hardest part of the lovely comments and compliments I receive is keeping my emotions in check now on hormone therapy I can find myself  with tears running down my face even over silly little things and yes the lovely comments and compliments can make my mascara run at times I should wear waterproof mascara more often than not just in case, I am a typical girl or woman and really appreciate all the positive lovely comments and compliments I get so please don't stop
Thank you all
Angie

My Transition

-
I have come so far in the last 12 months,I have to pinch myself to believe it's all true am not sure you could make this up if you tried,yes I am happier than I have ever been and have so many people to say a massive thank you to,I hope I will get the chance to say thank you to all the lovely friends who have been so wonderful and supportive. Unfortunately there is still so much discrimination about that there is still so much work to do we cant stop helping,teaching,explaining and answering the questions we get asked,maybe the reason why I am not getting any work thru agencies right now is because I am trans but that does not stop me from being a hard worker or reliable and honest that should be a positive for any agency knowing you can be who you are without any problems. Now I hope that I will start getting work again and earning a decent wage to support myself and help with my transition.

3 Years and counting

It has now been over 3 years since i started my transition and i have come along way in the last 3 years that even now i pinch myself and not sure where the time has gone but also look back and see how much i have changed in so many ways, the changes aren't just physical either which i have not thought too much about and let the hormone therapy do what its meant to do that i have been more patient than ever in life and was never known for being patient with anything as anyone that really knows me will testify to. The last 12 months have seen some of the more obvious changes which i knew about with the information i was given when i started,with the hormone therapy i am on everything happens at its own speed and not expecting too much too quick it is not a miracle cure and they take time to work,changing my testosterone blocker from a tablet taken every day to an injection done by a nurse at my GP's every 12 weeks has meant i don't have to remember take a tablet or try to th

even more surprises

I have been debating for the last few days on what my next blog should be about and whether to start doing a more daily or weekly blog like a diary version but online,and will leave that up for discussion as for now personally will write as and when but as have been ill for most of the week and finally starting to feel like a human being again,i am now up for writing this blog. I have to say that as important as it is to hopefully change how people perceive anyone that is trans and living in the gender they should have been born in,i know from personal experience that i also should think or start to think differently and not just assume or expect the worst when i get so many surprises from so many different people who may only meet me the once,there are times when i need to change how i think instead of expecting the worst just go with it hold my head high and smile,i got in a lift a couple of weeks ago quite late and was after midnight and there was someone in the lift who i didn
