I got my period at about 4am this morning, 2 days after winter solstice and the day after a full moon. the sybolism of it all, the kismet of it all. i've ended up going inwards in a way I don't often during my period. i welcomed her instead of groaning under the effort. i've decided to see it as cleansing, grounding, enveloping, slowing. i coccooned myself and treated myself right. i dragged my mattress into the garden and stared at the sky for 3 hours. i did """self care""". i feel good. i feel grateful to women who came before me and battled this with less than I have.

My period is four days late and I swear it better be waiting for the supermoon/bluemoon tomorrow night and nothing else. Perhaps my body is waiting until I am able to finally harness my utmost power and potential through the hormonal portal. My insides are currently teeming with rageful anticipation…!!!
I also just spent the last four days in the ocean, floating and dunking my flesh suit, (which I feel so uncomfortable in during this stage of my cycle) some of the time getting battered by waves, and drawn in by very strong currents, remembering my smallness, the earth’s vastness.
And in all this waiting for my period, waiting for relief from the scattered anxieties in my head, soft but strong like cotton in the canals in my brain, and in my stomach, a dullish, empty but fibrous feeling of dread and discomfort.
Please bleed!!!

Dude I work with has this across his knuckles, as in German for house wife. Kinda iconic of him to be honest.

my dad just said he wasn't sure about my brother's girlfriend because she doesn't possess an innate silliness
made me realise how important silliness is to my family and therefore to me

I used to be very much a big tee to sleep kinda gal, but about a year ago I inherited a bunch of beautiful vintage matching pyjama sets. i feel like my sleep hygiene and sense of self have both improved immeasurably since then!! I now have some really nice sets that I’ve bought or been given, most recently this Damson Madder set. I feel so GOOD when I get out of the shower and put these bad boys on. Honk shoo mf!!!
