Guess who has a job orientation on Wednesday!?

Well, I completely forgot just how slow the civilian world moves and kinda wondered if I was not hired, but today I got a call.

I am honestly kinda freaking out, lol, like why did past me do this to present me!🫣😭!

This is my first job as me and I'm nervous, and to make matters worse; my favorite manager will not be there for my paperwork so I will have to out myself to some random person I don't even know…

I am excited but also timid and scared, just yesterday I went to walmart and was kinda chased by one guy, and I had another creeping on me, he went an isle over and circled around to literally peek at my backside.

I can't imagine being stuck in a store and having to deal with it, however, my best friend said; welcome to being a woman, so I should probably suck it up and stop whining..

Either way I am happy, excited, nervous, scared, but also hopeful!

I will keep you posted on how showing my ID goes and how I feel about starting my new working life!

Thank you to everyone who has been following and to everyone who cares!

Oh my goodness, I found an amazing song for us, it is quite beautiful!

So I finally found a song that describes being trans and accepting and going through your metamorphosis!

I will post lyrics below!

Happy Sunday and remember that you are beautiful and loved!🫶🏾

How do I convince you to love yourself?
I wish that you knew that nobody else
Could ever float like you
But you don't see yourself the way I do
So just remember on the days when you feel like hell
Heaven can be found right inside yourself
God gave you joy for pain
So butterfly, enjoy your rain
You can't love what you won't accept
So you're the smartest idiot that I have ever met
How can you be brilliant but have no self-respect?
And why you chasing validation on the internet?
I wanna see you smell your flowers while you're still around
You're a king or queen, but you don't wanna wear your crown
When you look into the mirror, tell me what you see
'Cause if it isn't beautiful, then wipe the mirror clean
You're a miracle, divinely made in every way
You are spiritual, and God doesn't make mistakes
Providential and essential, and your soul's divine
You are perfectly imperfect, you're a butterfly, so
How do I convince you to love yourself?
I wish that you knew that nobody else
Could ever float like you
But you don't see yourself the way I do
So just remember on the days when you feel like hell
Heaven can be found right inside yourself
God gave you joy for pain
So butterfly, enjoy your rain
Butterfly, what if life
Let you die just to fly again
Spread your wings, learn to grow
Cycle back, enjoy the show
One thing I'm sure of this
I'll watch your metamorphosis
Your light is bright and borderless
Your life has so much more to live, so
How do I convince you to love yourself?
I wish that you knew that nobody else
Could ever float like you
But you don't see yourself the way I do
So just remember on the days when you feel like hell
Heaven can be found right inside yourself
God gave you joy for pain
So butterfly, enjoy your rain
How do I convince you to love yourself?
I wish that you knew that nobody else
Could ever float like you
But you don't see yourself the way I do
So just remember on the days when you feel like hell
Heaven can be found right inside yourself
God gave you joy for pain (joy for pain)
So butterfly, enjoy your rain
Butterfly, what if life
Let you die just to fly again, mm
Butterfly, what if life
Let you die just to fly again, oh-oh
How do I convince you to love yourself?
I wish that you knew that nobody else
Could ever float like you (float like you)
But you don't see yourself the way I do (the way I do)
So just remember on the days when you feel like hell
Heaven can be found right inside yourself
God gave you joy for pain (joy for pain)
So butterfly, enjoy your rain
You're back to life (yeah, yeah)
You're back to life (yeah, yeah)
You're back to life (yeah)
Back to life

Guess who got a job!?

So I had my interview today, and as soon as I walked in the manager who recruited me saw me and got super excited, she ran up and told me I looked nice and then she hugged me.

After that she asked what I was there for, I told her the interview and then she really lost it! She was so happy that I applied and that I was her interview. When I scheduled it I was kinda sick and I guess my voice doesn’t sound the same when I’m sick.

She thought someone else was interviewing. So we did the interview which was essentially both of us geeking out over how excited we were! But there were some serious questions.

Additionally, they already know that I am management material, they are shifting around because someone quit and she hinted at me becoming a manager.

This is super exciting for me and uncharted territory, I haven’t worked since I retired in 2021 and I didn’t transition until 2023, so this is my first job as me, and I’m kinda nervous.

I’m going to have to do paperwork probably on Monday, that is kinda scary because I’m fairly certain I will have to out myself with my ID, so that will be fun, it lowkey actually might be because my manager is super cool, and it will be nice to have someone in my corner.

I am also a little bit worried about guys harassing me, but we will see what happens, either way I’m excited to start this new venture!

So I have had a really exhausting time over the past week or two, I needed to see my endo to manage my HRT, my Infectious Disease doc to manage my Prep, my psychiatrist doc to manage my meds, and my primary doctor for my physical.

I had to go to the VA everyday last week, and I got more attention than I wanted.
Some of it was respectful and some was not so much.

Last Wednesday after an appointment I tuned to walk down this long isolated hall, but as soon as I turned down the hall so did this older black gentleman dressed to the nines, he must have worked there.

I was like great, where do I even look, I smiled nervously and told him good morning, he said good morning then asked if he could compliment me, which I thought was very sweet.

I said yes, and then he told me I was beautiful, it made me blush as I thanked him.

Well last Thursday after my appointment, some other Black older man started whispering at me like spppst sppstt, and finger gesturing me to come over to him, I did and he slowly told me I was beautiful too ( I said thank you and he awkwardly said nothing,then I walked away).

Ten minutes later I am minding my own business and then turn the corner in this VA shoppet, another older Black gentleman looked at me and said; wait, you can’t just come around here looking like new money.

He then began to hit on my heavy, which was kinda awkward because he was standing between me and the door. He was shopping for hand lotion and kept putting some up to my face to smell.

It was kinda intimate and I got worried because people be weird, so I started taking them from him to smell myself( in hindsight I'm glad I did!).

He eventually asked if I was single and eventually asked for my number, I gave it to him even though I figured there was no way he would actually want me.

I finally managed to get out of there but not even an hour later I was receiving nasty texts from this man.

Apparently, there are these two Black ladies that work up there that are a bit jelly, I am more attractive than them. They got mad about that guy hitting on me and started making fun of him and telling him I wasn’t a real woman or some BS.

I get very annoyed that I’m literally just trying to live my life, but I have to deal with people stopping me, inserting themselves into my day, and then freaking out on me just for existing.

I am also annoyed at catty bitches that can’t mind their own business and go out of their way to put down others to make them feel better about their pathetic lives.

Now I have to look over my shoulder every time I come up here because that guy works up here.

And the cherry on top for that day's visit came as I was walking out, I complimented this old Black man’s service dog, he said thank you and then said to the other guy he was talking to that I was; “dressed like a stripper,” FML!

I actually canceled my appointment last Friday because I was lowkey scared to run into him the next day.

I am at that appointment now because I rescheduled, and I’m actually writing this at the VA( I hate this place). I had a small panic attack because I ran into the nice gentleman from last week.

At first I couldn’t remember which guy he was, but when I realized I calmed down, he actually said hi to me again, I think he was going to compliment me again but realized he recently did, he asked; I complimented you a few day ago, I said yes and thank you.

I am very irked at the whole experience, and also kinda overstimulated and doomy, the situation I'm forced to live in is unfair, but at least he couldn't tell and even had to ask…

So I am 31 months into HRT, I have been on injections for almost a year, and now I have been on progesterone for 1 week.

I am super excited because I'm kinda worried about my breast development/size, but I also don't know if I am being impatient.

Ladies, how long did it take you to finish growing!? And how long before you noticed a difference being on progesterone? And what changes did you notice?

I have noticed some things that are different, but those changes are mainly orgasm related and I think it is because I'm still adjusting.

I would love some advice, thank you all!
