Happy New Year!

I am always so anti-new years posts, but this year I feel like I definitely need to make a new year’s post. This year is going to bring me so many good things and I’m so thankful that I’m finally at the point where my life is actually going to change for the better.

I started testosterone finally on November 17th. Which means I am just a few days shy of being a full seven weeks on it. Kind of surprisingly, to me anyway, quite a few things have already started happening and changing. Feb 17th is the court date to officially legally change my name. Which all of the above have been almost a decade of forward motion finally coming to fruition. It’s been a journey that I don’t have the time nor the words to explain. But my 30s have been the most eye-opening, frustrating and sad years of my life. I’ve learned a lot about myself, most importantly, what I will and won’t put up with. Every failed relationship has taught me lessons that, in the end, have and are still making me a better stronger person. Every time one ends, I see more and more about myself that just makes me put more healthy boundaries in place. Which, to be honest, might exclude a lot of people from having special places in my life. But I also would rather have a tiny circle of people who are 10,000% behind me than a bunch of people who have one foot in and one foot out.

There’s a lot going on. A lot of really good things. A lot of relationships growing and evolving right along with me and I’m just so thankful that 2022 wound up bringing me. And the things that 2022 also freed me to completely let go of. Now it’s time for 2023 to deliver.
