I've just ordered a Trans flag from @minus18.bsky.social to wear with pride at the rally in Adelaide next Sunday - a rally in solidarity with Transgender kids in Queensland. I've ordered it express post so fingers crossed it arrives in time!

12 weeks ago today I started my HRT journey. They have been 12 wonderful weeks, and I wouldn't change a thing.
Much love to the folx who've voiced their support. As a nod to one of these people I'm leaning into my "super fun librarian" vibe by taking this photo on front of my "library" shelves.

It's been an exhausting two weeks, but today I found the energy to hang this windchime outside my lounge room.
It's incredibly soothing and is nice to just listen to it, and conserve what few spoons I have left.
Living with disabilities can be hard, but little things like this can sometimes help.

I've decided to start moving on any mugs which I associate with negative past experiences (essentially all of them), and replace them with mugs I can associate with the new beginnings I am currently in.
This is my first: a monogram mug with the initial of my new name.
Maybe a trans mug next? 🏳️⚧️🌈💜💜

I listened to Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite No.1 & No.2 today for the first time.
Suite No.2 1st mvt had me in tears. It's a stunningly beautiful piece of music.
I think I'll keep an eye out for a Deutsche Grammophon recording of this. I'm glad I could finally get past that pop song - Suite No.1 1st mvt.

It's been a big week, and it's still not over.
So it's nice to relax and watch an episode of Twin Peaks with an amber sunset through the window bringing a glorious end to the day.

Super Goober is going in for dental surgery today.
I'm gonna be a scared mumma until he comes back home safely.
But at least he'll be able to chew again soon and that should stop him vomiting.
Hopefully after that he still wants to hang out and interfere with my makeup routine in the morning.

The news today of David Lynch's passing is a timely reminder that I haven't watched Twin Peaks in a number of years.
So, it's time to dust off the DVD box set again and revisit this gem.
Yes, I still have DVDs - don't judge me!

4 years ago today this little one came into my life and adopted me as their human.
4 years later, today I am told that I cannot do my makeup because the bedroom dresser is apparently a place for pats.
That's ok though, because he just melts my heart.

This looks interesting.
I'll answer more questions as the days go on.
Jump in with a number if there's something you'd like to know.
To start off:
6 - She/her, trans woman
3 - Nope. I left that place well before it turned into a steaming cesspit of hate speech.

My Netflix was due to renew tomorrow, so I cancelled it.
I've only been watching it because I'm paying for it and it's there...
Instead I'll spend my downtime over the holidays reading more books.
Starting with these two.

I've had a bad pain flare again these last two weeks: the first one in a few months. I've even been back on my cane the last week.
I managed to cook a vegan shepherds pie and wash up just in time for it to really kick in this evening.
So now dinner, couch, and a movie, and I'm not moving until bed.

I am feeding only myself each evening, but I still love the effort which goes into the presentation, no matter how simple the meal.
For me, enjoying food is a much about the visual aspect as it is the flavours and the smell.
And sometimes a simple meal wants simple presentation.

I just moved my desk chair and heard Super Goober jump out of the way.
I looked down to see this tail hair on the floor.
He didn't say a word - no squeak, nothing.
He's ok after inspecting the part of him which is no longer attached, but he's also now in a bit of a mood with me.
