I'm about 80% recovered from a horrible flu, I think a couple more days and I'll be able to get back to exercising :-)
Tattoo appointment only had to be delayed for a week ...

Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Ugh I got flu once it was fucking awful...I've got the jab every year since
Yeah, I have the jab every year, but it's a different type circulating on this side of the planet :-/
First time in my life I've had real fever dreams, though
Somehow I regained my capacities to concentrate again - yay!
Paid off the last of my tax debt after avoiding it for a month and a half. Told myself I can get the tattoos I've been wanting if it did it so now I'm finalizing the details and will hopefully get it dome this month. 🙂
Ooooh nice what you getting done?
I love the poem Invictus so I'm getting the last two lines on it on my forearm. I also want to get the title on my spine between my shoulder blades.
Feeling the pressure, but managing to keep going
I finally found a side hustle that actually makes money. Hallelu.
Went through a load of changing services to ethical suppliers.
I'm now with Nationwide (UK) for banking. Not only am I not supporting corruption and the destruction of the planet, THEY give YOU money to bank with them through various offers. It's some sort of cooperative rather than shareholders thing(?) and I've had about £300 off them in total with this week's cashback.
They do switcher deals every so often, it's worth looking out for if you're considering it.
Have you posted this in casual uk? They might like it
Finally got my butt to the bank to deposit a couple of checks I have been meaning to deposit.
Bought myself a Steam Deck as a reward :)
Well... I'm not homeless (again) yet. Trying to find a bright side, I guess, 'cause there's a lot going very wrong, and I'm struggling. Aaaaaaaaa!!!
Small wins are still wins! It’s a lot easier said than done, but the only way out of hell is getting through it.
When I was going through my toughest times, it really helped to ground myself by forcing gratitude. Slowing down and enjoying the cup of coffee in the morning. Taking in how the trees looked while walking to the bus. Noting how soft my house slippers are on my feet.
I hope things start to really turn around for you soon <3
Thank you. :) I really, genuinely appreciate it a lot! 🫂
Using my vacation time to work short weeks for pride month, Wednesday night is now Friday and I'm so stoked I started the week with so much extra energy 🥰 it's going to be a good month
