I took out my phone and saw a text from my husband that said, “Stacy, I’m going to be home late due to a meeting at work. Go ahead and eat dinner with Maddie. I’ll see you soon.” There was a heart emoji at the end which caused me to smile widely.

In context of my performative gender routine, it seems a challenge for me to distinguish how I conduct myself in relation and construction of my daily being. First, I will take us through a normal beginning to a weekday, glossing over my daily routine.
