As we approached mid-to-late December I have to look back at this year in all in wonder. This year I became a woman in terms of hormones which is just kind of f*****-up considering I've always had wicked high testosterone in my body. It's throwing me for a loop and has a lot to do with my personal identity and it's something that I'm still processing through both physically and mentally. In addition I have been raised with Tales of our Native American ancestry since I was a child only to take a DNA test and find out I am 100% European, particularly well she apparently. It makes the Native American tattoo I have on my arm and my General questioning of inherent patriarchy and white domination a little bit more complicated. I have made very little progress in my doctoral study yet more this year than I have in the last two years, but I'm still not sure what end is in sight. I became a college instructor at two universities and while it's only adjunct in, it's hopefully a step in the right direction. My spouse made a major life decision about what to study in school which is awesome but means the next couple years are going to be a little bit rough on us. Finally, I started a weight loss Journey that I've been send you a thing now, but required me to stop being a vegetarian which is something that I had a lot of personal pride in. So yeah, a lot of change this year, and while things are more complicated because of it oh, it's an amazing journey so far.
