I'm making bread from scratch. I'm scared and excited all at the same time.

Oooo you can do it! It's one of my favourite foods to make! Plus your house will smell like baked bread ๐Ÿคค

Also, take a huge whiff of the dough after proofing; it smells like beer ๐Ÿบ

Laying on the couch, wearing nothing but my oodie is such a pleasurable and decadent experience, it should be illegal.

Fuck family are annoying. Mum still refuses to do some ten minute reads about having a trans kid so she still treats me like a fucking man. My son was asked to house sit for my sister for a fortnight, so she just plonked herself along. Now I can't stand to see her because it fucks with my head so I'm missing quality son time, which I've been missing a lot, cos he's terrible at messaging, but super present when we spend time together. He was the first person to know I'm trans and has been awesome.

Mum called me daddy yesterday and has a very, you're a certain aged person when I was excitedly showing them how my baldness is receding, I've told her a dozen fucking times I'm a 14 year old girl mentally right now. Can you please show the same sensitivity? Acceptance of my new superficialities are nowhere near enough. Her and my sister have been very no, you tell us what you're going through, even though I've explained multiple times that it's painful to talk about the insensitivities they show. There's so much support around for families of trans people, I've given them the advice and showed them how to access it. As I've stated again, multiple times, if I had autism or was blind, they'd be across it of their own volition, but this all comes across like they think I have some kind of choice over this. I've had so many shitty experiences with being trans in the last month and it's starting taking a toll.

Put your foot down, seriously. 'cos she's not gonna change unless you drop a very large ACME-style anvil on her head.

For this morning's edition of "What's In My Bowl":

Image: bowl of banana porridge with maple syrup and very thick yoghurt.

A hot breakfast was certainly called for today!

Do dodgy plumbers make kitchen sink pipes glued together so you have to call them and pay them more money? Sus. I'm renting but just wanted to fix it myself so no one has to intrude in my space :(

I've done nothing with my weekend besides watch television and snooze, and I know that come tomorrow (my monday) I am absolutely going to regret it.

On a completely different note I think I'm very very VERY nearly ready for a bit of spring and summer.
