All about the ‘bers

Uncategorized

Hi, Ah, how my mood and spirits lift as the season shifts. The warm orange hue of the trees, cooler mornings, and a slight chill to the morning. How I have missed your September, October, etc. All the ‘bers 🥰 Better The DeWookification continues to deliver in terms of body acceptance and dispelling the Dysphoria Goblin. Likewise the careful application of some nail protector means my paws – until after Chams – remain slightly polished, rather than their usual dullness. As much as this is ‘yet another transgender blog’ 🙂 it’s true that there are others things in life – or perhaps more accurately, my life – that bring joy: not having to rush to be somewhere; a stroll through […]

Little things

Posiblogging

Hi, Today I had the pleasure of some self-care and a morning without anywhere to rush to. Yay for a nonworking day and a stroll through the park to my beauty appointment. Local stuff Well, no rush other than through the traffic, as Nottinghamshire seems to have all of its road upgrades at once 🙂 Not a complaint, given that traditionally, the East Midlands receives less funding on infrastructure and healthcare. However, the city has removed most of the old Broadmarsh shopping centre, and there’s a gorgeous urban park in there now. Work will start soon to remove the remaining concrete structure, and indeed the old multistorey that looms large over Maid Marion Way. The latter was our go to […]

The mug that I got

Uncategorized

Hi, What to write about here? Well, there’s a question that bloggers may well have, when faced with the Big White Screen. Ah, assuming they’re not writing in dark mode or Notepad 🙂 IT joke: “I’m not saying he’s old, but he remembers when Notepad didn’t have spellcheck and AI distraction” 🙃 Exam results I am hoping that things went well 🤗 Be that for you or family who were expecting A Level results. Later this month it’s GCSEs, so wishing people well on those too. As for Child 2.0, I’ll say he did very well and has what he needs to get into the university he wanted to. Dare I say, and personal pride of the student aside, good […]

Gap time

Uncategorized

Hi, The washer is spinning merrily away to itself, so there will be my family’s clothes to hang out in a bit. I guess one good thing about the summer – other than not having to worry about a coat – is things dry quickly on the line. I guess that saves money on the tumbling, but you lose a little on the time. Still, a bit of mindfulness to enjoy the cooling feel and fresh scent of newly laundered items. Maybe, there’s a dash of satisfaction in having not just faffed about, but completed a few things of the To Do list. It’s gap week before Chams and thankfully, I am not on the receiving end of any dysphoric […]

The Tide

Posiblogging

Hi, Ah, what to write about today eh, dear reader? Well, it’s not going to be the news because I’m still not reading it. 😐 Apparently there’s been some sports thing involving lots of running about and a ball. I know that doesn’t narrow things down because a lot of sport seems to do with one or both of those requirements. Okay, except archery or shooting, but I find it wise not to rib folk who can assassinate you at a distance. 😉 Umm, not that anyone who excels at such a sport would do such a thing. They’re very lovely people! 😁 Okay, so flippancy aside… Oh, and I was going to call this ratcheting, but apparently that – […]

Serendipity, I guess

Posiblogging, Uncategorized

Hi, As I write this, I’m sat on the dog sofa* enjoying the cooling breeze from the garden. No bifold doors as we’re old school. The sun is mostly behind the high trees from the neighbour uphill, so it’s an absolute joy to enjoy the greenery, birdsong, and slow time. ( * If you have hounds, technically all sofas become dog sofas 😉 ) Under one of the hedges, a blackbird is flicking the fallen leaves around, looking for insects. I do need to get around to trimming the brambles that have built up, but that’s not a hot weather job. I’ll absolutely need some sturdy protection against those thorns. The washing is already done and hung up in the […]
