I moved to a new place this weekend. Was a lot less hectic than the last move. It's a bigger place. I needed it.

I purchased the book Transgender Rights. I started reading it and am taking lots of notes. I really want to understand what's at stake and what needs to be done.

I will be out tomorrow night attending a worship service. It will be my first time dressed. I'm looking forward to it.

I said that 2007 would be a better year and it has been. I have been going through some changes in my life both emotionally and spiritually. I can't say that I have all the answers but my trans journey is moving me to reach out and seek more of God and what He has for me.

GENEVIEVE'S GEMS

Never apoligize for who you are,
or how you choose to express yourself.

There have been subtle changes in my life. I refer to myself as a transgender woman. I have the same feeling I did last summer when I was completely comfortable and content with who I am.

I was selected to be in a project which surveys the lives and changes in transgender women. I want to share my story because there are so many misconceptions and myths about trans people.

GENEVIEVE'S GEMS

Being transgender has opened the door to new horizons-and new challenges.

It snowed today and it's slushy outside. I'm also battling a cold/allergy. The way the air is these days, who knows. Haven't felt much like dressing but the thrill will be back so don't worry.

I'm looking to improve my looks quite a bit. Practicing on my make-up and will be getting my ears peirced. Need more shoes, too. So many things a tgirl has to get. Have to look pretty.

GENEVIEVE'S GEMS

Be positive; work on areas that need improvement;
seek help. Share your suceeses with others.



Tonight I will let Gennee out. I'm trying to decide if I should wear a long skirt. It's been cold here all week. Decisions! Decisions!

I was scouring the internet looking for information about transgender veterans. I feel so privileged to be a member of this wonderful group of people.

Life as a transgender and transvestite sure isn't boring. It's a never ending journey that takes you to heights never experienced. My dressing up has improved. I have the desire to be out more and have taken steps to do so.

One of my sisters on a forum that I'm a member gave me the webstie of women clothing store where plus sizes are available.

I will be getting my ears pierced this weekend. It's about time. Also looking for breasforms and another wig.

Life as a transwoman is getting better. It is evolving every day.

With each passing day, I feel so in tune with my spirit. I have mentioned that I am completely comfortable as a transgender. This is my desire for all transgender persons.
