A Day In A Transgender Life

One day-24 hrs ago, I sat here and wrote how my life had reached a certain plateau.
I wasn't discouraged by any means by my physical development but then again I have never been a patient person. A waiting game was never my strength.
When I woke up this morning though, I noticed (for the first time) a definite soreness in "the girls".  Obviously something was happening.
I'm light years from developing hips  but as I happened to check my faint waist line,  I can imagine what my body could become.
All of this was great, but I'm actually saving the best for last.
It has been a very windy February day and my hair was all over the place. In a act of frustration in my back yard I pulled it back to see if I could finally form a pony tail. The answer was YES I could.  The process was  relatively easily although I have never done it.  By no means is my hair flowing down my back but I can now wear a two inch "tail"! I will say I need a lot of practice of even tying off my pony tail but it is a labor of love!
Here's the best part. The rubber band I used today was actually off the first estrogen prescription bottle I received. No bottle before or after has ever had a rubber band. I saved this rubber band as a sign of good karma and the future.
Today, I put it to good use!
