it's been a while since i've posted anything on here. my heart goes out to all of us here who have struggled, either by having to hide from loved ones or trying to find the look and clothes to fit.
before i joined this forum, i was well on my way. i had breast forms, wigs and makeup, but didn't realize that i was TG or what it meant. i do now and embrace it and my male half and can say without a doubt that the both of them are doing fine.
i've always thought that if you're doing something different and you're not quite sure that it's for good, then good things will happen to support it. as has been the case for me.
without going into a lot of detail, i've been working really hard in my job. it's going well. i've lost almost fifteen pounds. that's HUGE!! i am going to capitalize on it, by getting into even better shape.
finances have never been better for me, despite the fact that i've spent quite a bit on wigs, breast forms and clothes. somehow the money is always there and more.
probably sometime in the next year, i will be moving out on my own without my SO. it's a long story, but basically i've decided not to enable her anymore, unless her health deteriorates, in which case i will stand by her until she's better.
my five year plan? i finally have one. pay off my bills, save money for retirement and work a whole lot less so i can spend more time being Cassandra. i am hopefull that the company i work for will allow me to work 6-10 months out of the year to do this, otherwise, i am sure i can find similar work elsewhere.
yep, being TG has been good to me
