Celebrating Self

When I get a TDA, my hope is that I will spend time doing things that help me feel special or important in some way. 

A celebration of self.

This will often involve me putting on a bathing suit for feelings of attraction or seduction (with or without my partner home or around) – or I will dress in loose or casual loungewear. If possible, I might even just stay naked for hours at a time. Not wearing something is often more comfortable and can require less mental effort. In the safety of home, it does not really matter.

Today I gave my partner a brief lift to their car by motor-bike. That was cute and fun. Once I got home, though, I found I was really tired, so I took a couple naps. Not how I expected to spend my day, but beneficial in a way, I guess. Here I am after a second meal for the day (and hopefully my last as I am not doing much but sleeping today)… And here I feel another wave of exhaustion and tiredness.

Our pug has been antsy, so she has had all her dinner and a dental treat, but I do not know if she will finally settle down without more activity.

I do like the idea of getting good sleep, though. It is a precious thing for me. My conditioning though thinks there is an expectation that I do more on days that I get off.

T update – still have some facial fluff… my voice has begun to come up, though I can still sing rather low and there is an area where I croak still. I still do finger-lifting, but not as much as I had prior. The recovery from a fungus (though it is debate-able what it truly is per my medical professionals) is taking a long time to heal. (ADDENDUM, 5/6/21, possible it was just a yeast infection on the skin that later traveled to other areas on the body and was finally treated recently – while back on T!)
