Learning not to take myself seriously

Last night

…. my husband and I talked a bit about his I had such a rod up my arse! Following on from what I realised on Tuesday, I shared that little bit of self-discovery with him and apologised. I felt really sad that my insecurity had robbed him of a wonderful means of expression, and myself of fun. He doesn’t think he will ever be able to get it back. I hope that he is wrong.


I was very tired last night and it didn’t take me long to go off. I woke about 45 minutes before the alarm and was sticky with dried sweat: I’d had flushes in the night but had been so tired that is slept through them. I feel like I’ve had a decent night’s sleep, although there is the threat of a migraine: time to get up, pop a sumotriptan and have a few good of coffee … then cycle into work!


Last night a friend asked: “How do you think have built and maintain your emotional resilience? Particularly in the face of such a significant role reversal.”, to such I answered “Well, before all this coming out as non-binary, the resilience was founded on being oblivious and impervious. I think it’s now based on being comfortable in being myself: being authentic seems to give a lot more strength than I would have expected. I thought that being emotional would make me weak!”

    I hadn’t actually intended to publish that when I did! Never mind! It will do!

    In the sauna, we don’t complain that it’s a sweaty place either:-) Enjoy menopause and adapt…otherwise your own nerves will get on your nerves. Yoga helps and you find yourself sensitive, that’s who you are. :-)

      I’m looking forward to my first trip to the sauna. I haven’t been for a very long time and I’ve never been to a gay sauna
