Jonny went out so I could be untalkative without feeling bad.
The sun is starting to come back out. Thank god!
Learning new things at the first aid course.

Dough balls and garlic butter.
Enjoying a London Eggs hangout. Feels like an age since I’ve enjoyed one.

Having some quiet time on the train to and from to read my book.
Researching and writing up the Big Plan.
Library books! I’m so glad it’s back open.
An evening to myself, doing yoga, reading, cleaning, booking gallery trips and deciding to not go to Will’s party tomorrow.
I’m home alone! For two weeks! I took a bath and lay naked on my bed reading and then masturbated. It felt so much better immediately.
Seeing Rosie. And feeling normal again. And laughing and being silly.
Sarah sent me Woman World and I LOVE it.
Finally lying in the park, reading in the sun. With an iced coffee.
Having some time to myself.
Eating lots of fruit and coconut yogurt.
Beautiful patchy sunlight through the tree.
Some time on my own in the flat. I didn’t realise how much I needed it.
And going out for a short walk. I needed that too.

Taking the day off. Sleeping, reading and sewing were needed.
Mars ice cream.
Taking the day to myself.
Cleaning off the orange stuff from the shower curtain.
First date with Sean.
Getting loads of vulva stuff done. The ‘This is your’ series and all the contract details for feminist societies. It feels really great to be getting some of this stuff done.
Next in Fashion, flat to myself, ironing.
A pain au raisin from Adam.
Making my dungarees. I feel so so proud of myself and I just love that feeling of wearing something out the front door that literally didn’t exist that morning.
Yoga with Adriene before bed.
Roast parsnips, again. Can’t stop, won’t stop.
Tidying and organising. Finally got a spice rack (of sorts), my cupboard looks so neat and tidy and I have things in neat boxes everywhere you look.
Packing my bag for tomorrow’s run (slow jog) to work. I’m really quite excited!
Deciding to cancel the social plans for today and stay in to do the above.

Taking time to myself in the library whilst at work.
Sorting out the basement, on my own. I like tidy things.
Lots of texts with James.
Naked male feet, enjoying the sun at lunch time. Not something I’d usually enjoy but it made me happy to see toes enjoying the warmth towards the end of September.
Feeling calm about Sunday. Walking around in the sun, putting up posters slowly and not feeling stressed.
An evening on the sofa with a book, apple and peanut butter and a teapot of green tea.
Lunch was late but it was perfect in the park. Amazing blue sky and still warm.
He got my care package. I’m really glad I sent it. No matter what else.
An evening to myself. I left work at half 4. I made a good Instagram post for the Period Parties. I did yoga with Adriane. I baked. I watched Bake Off.
Hooooome. No more hen party.
Lying in the park, texting James.
Hearing that 100 Vaginas made the young women feel much happier with their vulvas. 😍
Also my plant has the beginnings of tomatoes and I went out for lunch on my own again. Hello vegan food and silence.
Barry in Archway. So bloody lovely and helpful. Took me right out of my bad mood.
Clicking my back at the end of yoga. That felt very needed.
Knowing I have the flat to myself for a week and a half. Perfect timing as my PMT was outrageous today and now I can live exactly as I want until it goes away.
The chihuahua with the tiny head and big lab body. And friends that send silly photos to cheer me up.

MY CUTE LETTERING. So pleased with this.
Taking the afternoon to myself. To sew, eat brownies and do yoga.
Jo at the school being so grateful for my help in getting rid of some of their furniture.
Sitting in the park instead of going straight back to the office. And watching the bird bathe in the dog bowl.
Deciding to have tomorrow off and make time for me.
A short chat with Jo whilst I waited for the work event. It’s good to have someone who understands and makes me feel like I’m doing the right thing.
A really bloody good breakfast. Vegan banana pancakes with chia seeds and peanut butter and fruit and flaxseed. And a Georgian cup of tea.
Another dungaree dress in the bag.
A long, very James, voice message from James about his dream.
P.s. leaving the party and coming home to dance around my living room by myself.

Soph liked my music. No one ever likes my playlists.
Talking to Andrew about vulvas, penises, willies and dicks.
Deciding to come home and relax rather than go to the talk.
Being helpful to Andrew when Claudia was being a complete dickhead. It felt good to be needed and to be able to help.
A walk along the canal. For work. Obvs.
A quick fix from the neurologist.
Vegan sausages and an early bedtime. I’m glad I bailed. I needed this time alone.
Feeling knowledgeable and part of something in the comms meeting. Also seeing the lovely friend fun side of Simon.
