My week has been great! My girlfriend and I told each other that we love each other this week, and it just made me so happy. I've been having a stressful time lately adjusting to some changes, since the grandma I live with is at a point where she needs to move to assisted living in a few months and we're selling the house to pay for it. However, all the difficulties at home have been balanced with the joy I feel getting to spend my time with a girl I adore, so things could be so much worse. We've been talking about possibly moving in together, which is an exciting prospect!

Waiting for my hair and boobs to grow. It's so slooooow. I don't look (to my eyes) nearly as feminine as I'd like, although clearly I'm starting to be read that way by other people. But what am I not satisfied by? Clothes? Hair / makeup? Face? I'm not sure. I'm bad at everything and don't know how to girl. Eugh, early transition (month 7 of HRT) sucks.
Anybody want some data? I'm on 3 x 0.72mg patches every other day. Two was subjectively not enough to suppress the effects of T. Last blood test was 0.48 ng/mL T; 400 pg/mL E2. Acceptable, but I guess I might want to substitute some prog for estradiol at some point.

Gonna get my fingernails painted later this week with my buddy's wife. Super excited about that. Then I have to work the next day, so that might be fun. (My regular work partner knows I am enby already though.)
Things might get a bit interesting as I am not publicly out yet, so we shall see how things end up going.

Well... I go into work tomorrow (thanks chuck). Reeeeally wanted to have like a week or more off (because burnout) without dipping into my PTO safety net (it pays out when i quit).
Spiraling anxiety and depression and not-technically-diagnosed ADHD WHEEEEEEEEEE.

Just got an offer letter with a nice bump in pay from the new company that's hiring me for the position I already fill. And my first HRT appointment is in like two weeks. And my big vacation for the year is just after that HRT appointment. It's been a nice turnaround after a pretty shit start to the year.
