    I left my phone in the car.

    I live in South Shore. Not a good area for TG people.

    I left my phone in the car.

    In my burngundy dress, I marched right out there and got it. I did not care what people thought.

    I am out.

    I am also pretty.

    The best part about all this? When I walk out of this apartment today, it won't be with fear.

    This is not the first time I have been so bold. Back when I lived in Glen Ellyn I was seen en femme by more than one of the building residents. Even here, when I have to throw out some trash in the bin down the hallway, I just walk right out there no matter what I am wearing.

    I just did it again a few moments ago. I really don't think this black skirt could get any shorter.

    It is great to see you just relaxing and getting on with it Mere, it will only get better and easier. Then of course you wonder what all the fuss was about.

    Mere,
    You go girl and the more you do it the easier and better you will feel, you look great girl so enjoy your self. Let me say Sara the real me has way more friends here in the middle of the Bible belt than the former me ever did. I guess it is true that when you are true and nice to your self then people are attracted to you for some reason.
    So all I can say is “go for it girl live and love your freedom”

    Love and best wishes
    Sara

    PS sorry I can’t make it back up there for you official night out maybe some other time.
