Things that have happened:
- around May-ish my siblings started using the right name and pronouns for me
- in June I got a job
- in July I heard back from the apartment I've been waiting for. I'm moving later this month.
- my divorce went through. As of July 28, I'm single again.
- on August the 1st, my name change petition was granted
It's all kept me very busy. I'm still attending college full time and that can be hard to balance with working 30-ish hours a week and raising three kids. Sometimes I don't even feel like I have room to breathe. Work is good though. I'm a contractor for a kid's gaming website, so I get to work at home and set my own schedule. It's leaps and bounds over any of the jobs I've had out here.
I've got my Social Security card in the right name. Going down to the DMV next week. Then I can change it everywhere else. I also have a new doctor. Hopefully he'll be more open to treating me than the previous one.
I cannot wait to get out of my mother's house. It seriously can't happen soon enough.
