Charlotte's scratch post

[Charlotte Kitty ✅]

Just had a walk along the canal. This is 5 minutes from my house. With the evenings being light until later, I'll walk here most evenings with my partner to clear my head. I do miss that in the winter months as lose that therapeutic activity.

Evenings are the best as the light is very beautiful. But also you hear the birds calling and replying to each other and occasionally foxes and deer in the woods.

Often see Herons as pictured waiting in the water for fish to catch.

Now that's more my sort of thing! Better than freakishly large bunnies!

We don't have any canals up here. We invented the railway instead lol! But I wish we had of waited until they built canals near us first! They are lovely to walk along. I spent some time walking along the Crinin Canal at the top of the Mull of Kintyre. I could imagine it would be a nice boating or cycling holiday following these watery arteries all over England.

You look really happy today Charlotte! Lovely weather too!

Thanks, Charlotte!

You are pretty in pink!

I do recall not seeing any canals around your area, but it's not something I've actively thought about. Of course the midlands has many of them and they harbour huge amounts of wildlife and change so much throughout the months. Around here in the black country they are known as 'the cut'. It's important to me to have a countryside escape near where I live. I like urban life but also to escape into the country. I'm a woman of two half's for sure.

When I was working in Florida I went purposely looking for alligators. I never saw one! I'm guessing mornings and evenings would be best. Probably got closer to the water than I should but honestly I have an oddly foolish lack of fear.

I was still boymode then and probably too close to that water!

I was working at Epcot in Orlando but stayed in Kissimmee. I drove to a couple of reserves not to far away when I had some free afternoons.

I can go 10 minutes and be at a preserve and there be gators

[ChrissyRyan]

Gators and crocs scare me.  Even those odd looking crocs shoes!

[Dawn Kellie]

Crock shoes are hideous. Supposedly supper comfy, just cant get past the look

The animals are worthy of respect and caution. Oh very tasty too

[ChrissyRyan]

Do they taste like chicken?  The gators or crocs, not the shoes.

[ChrissyRyan]

I saw a gator resting under a car that was in a parking lot.

No, they taste like gator. More of a sturdy white fish and chicken flavor. The tail is the best part. And it is a dense muscle. So if your not careful I can be real tough

I've managed to find a therapist experienced in Borderline Personality Disorder and ADHD. Thankfully not too pricey though still costing me £50 a session. But I can't go on like this so need to do everything I can.

My whole relationship with the outside world and myself is really unhealthy and toxic. I needed to step away from here for a day or two as everything is messing with my head right now.

I had a lovely walk with my partner. We listened to the birds singing and kept joking about how the Heron must be getting annoyed. It had to keep moving down the canal as we walked, didn't think to fly behind us. Then a dog (mini wolf) was coming the other way. Now it must be really fed up!

Honestly we have these really simple, childish giggles together. That's how I wish my whole life was all the time!

I hope your therapist can give you understanding.
I will make time if you need a shoulder. You can also blame me for everything and I will listen. I won't get mad and listen until you're done. You are loved and accepted.

Thank you Kellie, that's very kind of you to offer and will keep in mind. I'm hopeful I can make some headway during my first session next Wednesday. Just need to go back to the beginning and work out why my mind is distorting everything so much.

I'm pushing hard now as transitioning has given me the desire to live and enjoy my life. I'd given up totally a couple of years ago, just existing and pretending. Now I have a taste of what life could be as a woman, and i really don't want to waste that euphoria.

Wondered if you were OK Charlotte, nice to see you back.

I will confess I've never heard of BDO but a quick google search does seem like you could be onto something based on what you've been sharing. Is this instead of the other NHS referral?
