I feel much better today. This weather is really strange. I'm looking for wool skirts anf long sleeves blouses. I'm wanting to dress more because I want to go out to various functions.

I have been making progress on a story about an out crossdresser. It's possible it could be a vehicle for a play.

I haven't been feeling good the past couple of weeks. This crazy weather has gotten a lot of people sick. Still trying to shake something.

Thanksgiving was good. My computer is down so I'm using this one at work. Hope to be up again soon.

Thanksgiving was very good. Spent the day with the family eating turkey and all the trimmings. It rained all day.

I watched the documentary 'Transgeneration' in its entirety. It was quite interesting how the families handled the transitioning these college students were going through. When I think about it's really crossed many barriers, not just gender. I admire these young people for the courage to follow their convictions.

I went into the city on Saturday. It was mild for late November. I went into a few bookstores and browsed through the fiction and literature sections. Plays have been the focus lately and I'm attempting to write one. I also thumbed through some women's magazines. I want to improve my make up skill and add shades of color to my appearance.

Inner peace and contentment far outweigh
whether or not I will pass.

Today is the best I have felt in several days. I have been battling a cold and the flu.

I attended a transgender Day of Remembrance celebration yesterday. It felt good to be around my trans brothers and sisters. One of my goals for the coming year is to attend more trans events.

This year has been one of firsts. I am so comfortable with being a transgender person. It has made a difference in my life.

I marched in the Veteran's Day parade dressed as Genevieve. It was a great day for everyone. I marched under the banner of the American Veterans for Equality. Young and old cheered, waved, and said "Thank you". I was truly humbled by it. There were many veterans in the parade. The comraderie among them is still after many years.

There were a number of WWII and Korean War vets. Not each homage is paid to these brave men and women and we should thank them for what they did to preserve our freedom.

I was dressed the whole day. It was the longest that I spent dressed and I want to do it more often.

The people who have impacted mankind the most
were those who were willing to step outside the box.

It's official! I will march in the Veteran's Day parade on Saturday. I'm both excited and honored. I want to get to know more LGBT veterans.

The elections are over and I have some mixed vibes about what transpired. Partisan politics and political correctness seem more important than issues of the people. Also, IMO, there are too 'empty suits'.

I got dressed up last Friday evening and wow, it was great to be out there again! I walked along the bust streets without a care in the world. I strolled through the nearly empty park, save several joggers, by the river. It was chilly but I dreesed warm. The feel of the wind on my bare legs was exhilerating. Gazing out into the harbor, I felt so comfortable being me. I am so happy that I am a transgender and a transvestite.

People laughs and scorns at us. We're called perverts, mentally ill, and faggots. Society says we aren't fit to be considered normal. My insides bubbling, I said to no one in particular "My name is Gennee! I'm a transgender and a transvestite and I'm proud of it!" That felt sooo good to get off my chest.

Yesterday, I attended a meeting of LGBT veterans. AVER, American Veterans for Equal Rights, will be marching in the Veterans Day Parade this Saturday. I will be marching as a transgender. I can't waith because this is something I have wanted to do for a while.

Change happens because there a greater purpose that lies ahead.

Tomorrow I will be out dressed for the first time in two months. I can't wait to get out and about again. There's so much happening and trying to decide which place to go is a challenge.

I have so much to write about my life as aTG/TV. Each day it gets better and I am comfortable with my life. I'm still developing a play but I haven't worked it as much as I would like.

I have been feeling good the past several days. I have been reading, writing, enjoying my life as a transgender. I haven't dressed in two months but I feel feminine just the same.

I will be going out dressed Friday evening . I'm checking out a couple of films to see if they are worth seeing.

It's not about where we come from;
it is about where we are now, and where
do we want to go.

My gender has been fluid the past few days. I'm am my most content when it happens. I am happy to be transgender because so many beautiful things have been revealed to me.

I purchased a cream color sweater and wine, long sleeve blouse yesterday. I am going out dressed tomorrow for the first time since early September. I feel feminine whether or not I dress.

I will be marching in the Veterans Day parade. I contacted the local chapter of the American Veterans for Equal Rights and will march under their banner. I spoke with the president of the chapter and he is pleased that a transgender person like myself will participate. He has been hoping that more trans folk will march. It is something that I have wanted to do for awhile.

I went out shopping today. I only purchased a belt. I saw so many lovely clothes. I concentrated on finding blouses, a sweater, and a skirt. Probably go out again tomorrow and purchase something.

Five things I can't do without: panties, lipstick, my denim skirt,
make-up, and purse ( have to remnd mysel that I'm a lady now).

I'm feeling much better today. I'm finally over the flu symptoms.

I am writing quite a bit because there's so much on my heart that I want to say. This transgender journey is taking me to new horizons. I have a very positive feeling about where I'm going. It's exciting as a matter of fact.

Life never stands still for anyone. Changes can lead to new challenges. It can stretch us to points that we wonder if we can make it through. I want to experience the things that are waiting for me. I don't know what they are but I'll be equipped to handle them when they come.

I am a wanderer traveling along a narrow winding path. I never look back. I keep looking ahead.

I didn't feel that great over the weekend. Coming down with a cold. I have been drinking fluids and taking some medicine. I feel a little better today.

I hope to go out dressed this weekend. Going no where in particular; just walk around. Veteran's Day is coming up and I plan on going and marching as a transgender. I'm apprehensive but I look forward to it.
