Wednesday was going to be a busy but enjoyable day I felt, I went into town first thing to do some shopping, the town was manic even before 9 so I quickly got what I wanted and returned home, then a visit to the GP for Denise and a blood test for me, I don’t like giving blood but have got used to it I suppose and this was uneventful. I went back next door and waited for Denise to come out, she was followed fairly quickly by My GP who came over to me and announced that she had seen pictures of me as Stephanie, I was a little shocked to say the least, she is the most wonderful person without whom I would not be in the position I am today, half way to my dream of transitioning! She said how lovely I looked and jokingly told me to stop looking so happy!. We returned home and I prepared myself for the afternoon! First lunch with Jessie then to wild lily, Jessie had organised for me to have the shop to myself with her undivided attention, I thought of a couple of hours at the most but we ended up being there for 5 hours! It was like a dream come true for me, I have to say, I didn’t expect to part with over $1500 but it was well worth it! I have so many clothes now I don’t know what to choose when I dress for dinner but it was a lovely experience and worth it, she also gave me lots of tips for makeup and accessories, gave me lots of dress jewellery and we shared a bottle of bubbles in the process.
The down side of the day is that Denise is really struggling at the moment, I guess mainly down to me and it must be very hard watching me transform into Stephanie and have so much fun when she feels that in the process she is loosing Robin, her soulmate, coupled with issues with her kids, pressure from work and to some extent my up and down moods it must be very hard for her but at least she is getting help and has made an appointment with a counsellor for a week Monday, in some ways I would have liked her to see The same psychologist as me but I can see her point of view that it wouldn’t be the right thing when she is looking after me so we will see how it goes.
