Journal Week 39, September 2026

Another week has gone by... And the days were all over the place. I had to try to contact the store that had sold me the crate about the damages and missing screws. I had hoped the coach could have helped me, but she was ill, so I was on my own for it. Physio on Tuesday, which was rather needed and welcome. Wednesday and Thursday were "easy" days, but with the sleep I was getting, it was not too easy to make it through the days, unfortunately. Friday was hand therapy day, which went OK enough. The weekend was "easy" again, until Koa decided to try and eat a wasp on Saturday afternoon... That sure brought me some anxiety, stress, and worries. But... It seemed that Koa (and by extend I as well) had been fortunate, and things ended as well as possible. Sunday was spent with some relaxing and all, after all my spoons had already been used on Saturday. It was a very mixed week for sure. But in the end, I think Koa and I did OK "making it through". A screenshot of a 14-day weather forecast graphic from the Weer & Radar app, set against a dark teal-blue background.At the top left, yellow and white text reads "14-daagse verwachting, Herpen, 21 september 2026." Below this is a line graph showing the daily high and low temperatures in degrees Celsius across a two-week span, running from Monday through the following Sunday.The days and corresponding temperatures are:Week 1:Monday (Ma): High 19C, Low 9CTuesday (Di): High 19C, Low 9CWednesday (Wo): High 20C, Low 13CThursday (Do): High 17C, Low 12CFriday (Vr): High 20C, Low 7CSaturday (Za): High 22C, Low 10CSunday (Zo): High 23C, Low 12CWeek 2:Monday (Ma): High 21C, Low 11CTuesday (Di): High 23C, Low 12CWednesday (Wo): High 22C, Low 11CThursday (Do): High 23C, Low 12CFriday (Vr): High 23C, Low 12CSaturday (Za): High 22C, Low 13CSunday (Zo): High 23C, Low 12CRed dots mark the daily maximum temperatures, hovering around 17C to 20C in the first week before steadily rising to a consistent 21C to 23C in the second week. Blue dots indicate minimum overnight temperatures, mostly ranging between 9C and 13C, with a noticeable chilly dip to 7C on Friday night.Below the graph is a row of pale yellow blocks indicating sunshine levels, followed by a legend: blue dot for "Min (C)", red dot for "Max (C)", and a sun icon indicating sunshine ("veel" for a lot, "weinig" for little). At the bottom, the logo reads "weer & radar", with app availability icons and the note "Stand: 21-09-2026."Quick links to the days of the week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday.

Journal Week 38, September 2026

Another mixed week, both health wise, pain wise, sleep wise, and everything else wise... There were some good moments, and a few that were disappointing or hurtful. Some bad dreams have been haunting me, but... Koa also allowed me a few nights with some OK sleep (when my dreams allowed it as well). The weather had its ups and downs again. It's really going from summer to autumn at times, with some warmer, sunny days, but also some windy, more moist, days. Sometimes, the days felt OK, and I managed to do some stuff. Other days, I felt like I was on survival mode, just keeping it going until it was time to go back to bed again. I've felt bad about this at times, especially towards Koa, as he deserves someone with more energy to keep up with him. I want to be that person, and I know I need to become that person again. But, I need my right hand, and my back, to recover more. And then, when my body is ready, my mind needs to "flip the switch", and start working on the more physical part of my recovery: to get my strength and stamina back. I miss the Cynni that used to be able to go on walks with Arwen for several hours at a go. Heck, I don't want to be unkind towards Koa, but I still miss my gall too. Koa and I are working on becoming a better team together every day. He is doing a great job. Now, it's up to me to stay on my exercises for my hand. And, when I can, to start going on longer walks with Koa, and hopefully picking up some cardio exercises at home again. But, that's still, hopefully, part of my (near) future... Which does make it so important for me to have good days (and nights). A graphic from the weather app weer & radar showing a 14-day weather forecast for Herpen, dated September 14, 2026.At the top, bold text on a blue background reads "14-daagse verwachting Herpen, 14 september 2026."Below the header is a chart covering a two-week period from Monday through Sunday of the first week, and Monday through Sunday of the second week. It displays daily high temperatures with red dots and low temperatures with blue dots (in degrees Celsius), along with sunshine and rain indicators along the bottom:First Monday: High of 22C, low of 14C. Low sunshine, no rain indicated.Tuesday: High of 24C, low of 16C. Plentiful sunshine with a single rain drop icon.Wednesday: High of 18C, low of 13C. Plentiful sunshine with a single rain drop icon.Thursday: High of 18C, low of 11C. Plentiful sunshine with a single rain drop icon.Friday: High of 17C, low of 12C. Plentiful sunshine with a single rain drop icon.Saturday: High of 22C, low of 13C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.Sunday: High of 21C, low of 14C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.Second Monday: High of 21C, low of 12C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.Tuesday: High of 23C, low of 12C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.Wednesday: High of 21C, low of 13C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.Thursday: High of 21C, low of 9C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.Friday: High of 23C, low of 12C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.Saturday: High of 23C, low of 12C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.Sunday: High of 21C, low of 12C. Plentiful sunshine, dry.A legend at the bottom shows red dots represent maximum temperature, blue dots represent minimum temperature, yellow blocks indicate lots of sun ("veel"), and gray blocks indicate little sun ("weinig"). Below the chart is the "weer & radar" logo with app store icons and a status date timestamp of 14-09-2026. Overall, temperatures take a brief dip into the high teens with light rain midweek before bouncing back to sunny, mild conditions in the low twenties with lows mostly around 12C to 14C.Quick links to the days of the week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday.

The Blhaj child

Our life has changed quite a lot since the beginning of the year and Im finally ready (and also allowed) to talk about it. Its a bit of a story, so I posted it on my blog as that is my personal space (as opposed to Facebook or other social media sites that can delete our stuff at any time).

Our child told me some time ago that he was not who we always thought he was and that he didnt want to live his life like that going forward.

I always thought he was an easy teenager (no big mood swings, doing well in school, no alcohol, no drugs, getting up and sleeping early, mostly disinterested in fashion) but somewhat socially awkward and maybe something stewing in him because of that awkwardness. But all of this could be explained away with our move from England to Germany, with him having to adapt to a slightly different culture and also catching up on language competency.

Three years ago he had made up his mind, finally understanding what was different about him and why life was so weird and painful for him, and he opened up about it. He told me that he was born in the wrong body and that he wanted to go on living as a woman. This really surprised me, I had no clue, but its not an issue for me, my child is my child, be it boy or girl, I just want my child to thrive.

From now on we are changing pronouns (but I will not reveal her new name here).

She said she was trying very hard to hide any signs ever since she knew something was different (that started with puberty at age 11/12) and she only really understood quite some time later what was really going on. So there we were.

She told her father about a year later, equally no issue.

During that time she was still dithering to a degree, like many Trans fem people she was giving it one last go to feel alright in the male body that she was given by exercising and getting muscles but alas that didnt work at all. After school was finished she started uni but got progressively depressed until she finally took the first steps to do something about transitioning at the end of last year. She needed to find a counsellor to get a medical indication that would allow her to start with hormones. In the end this worked out much faster than expected (going the private route) and in May she was able to begin with HRT (hormone replacement therapy).

During the course of the year, we slowly started telling more people. Luckily so far everyone has been positive about what is happening.

Physical changes will take time but mentally there was an immediate improvement. There are still ups and downs but shes coming out of her shell. Shes still at uni but decided to change from mechanical engineering to information technology. When a great opportunity suddenly came up to share a flat with another Trans fem person, she decided to do that. We agreed as young people have to start living their own life at some point. Luckily the flat is not far away at all.

So now my husband and I are on our own. The first week of that was terrible for me, I cried every time I needed to do something about food as we always had lunch and dinner together and I miss her so very much but Im finally getting to grips with things. I helped my girl with her move and building her furniture. Seeing her new room come together made me feel better. Of course, we also have a spare room now that Im able to slowly change into a guest bedroom/office/craft room, something Ive wanted for a long time, so I have something to occupy my mind.

I am really looking forward to getting to know my daughter better, finally I will get to see what she felt she had to hide for such a long time. All I want for her is that she is happy with herself!
