FULLY VACCINATED ❤️💜❤️ It occurred to me as I walked out of the house that this is the first time in my life I've gone out with my legs on show without shaving them. Trying to live as a woman, I would freak about body hair on the regular, shaving my legs, arms, stomach, upper lip, toes, pits....... I found wearing revealing clothes horrifying, and hated it. Any attempt to get dressed up and go out involved 6-7 outfit changes and me sobbing and hating my self. I thought it was just Eating Disorder related. Living as my self? Doesn't make me bat an eye lid. Every bit of new fuzz is a fucking delight. I'm starting to be able to tease out what was dysphoria, and what is ED related. Turns out I'm actually pretty delighted with most of my body. I can't wait for Top Surgery - though I have too, because pandemic and its gonna cost somewhere between 12-15 K and I'll have to go to the US for it too. Living as who you are? Priceless.

Me and mah boy ❤️ We've had a weekend of trying to wrangle all sorts of matters domestic and building furniture. We're exhausted, and in dire need of sleep, but my god do I love this boy. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMIfv0cp5ew/?igshid=1b2aihas13uan

We had to say goodbye to our wonderful Atticus today. The whole family is heartbroken, he was truly the best of us, and a more caring, empathetic and devoted feline has never been known. I am so grateful the universe let me have the winter with this wonderful fluffball. He slept on my head every night, and gave the best cuddles, and was the peacekeeper of our younger cats - a mere look from him was enough to stop them play fighting too much. I don't have enough tears to express my grief adaquate ly 😭 https://www.instagram.com/p/CL7lCyOJP21/?igshid=me3m0zkhwdro

Tonight I read my poetry out loud in a room full of glorious, multicoloured, Queers and it was one of the most uplifting, affirming, finding myself moments of my life. Turns out I am a Poet So much love to my wonderful @thisfoxwrites who has tirelessly encouraged me and read all my words, and to @linden_katherine and @betweenthestories who also read all my words and encouraged me and told me to go for it, and SHARED THE OPEN MIC NIGHT with me. And also to Esther and @amandycat01 who read the words and suggested edits and helped me polish Ode to Psalm 139 https://www.instagram.com/p/CLh9J5spx5I/?igshid=it4ebkyu5qft
