HNT – Thankful

“A friend accepts us as we are yet helps us to be what we should.”  -Author Unknown It’s not Thanksgiving, but it doesn’t take that day for me to realize how thankful I am for people.  Over the past few days, I am realizing how much I appreciate people – how lucky I am to…

The Puppy Pile

The minute the doors closed, the clothes started coming off.  No kissing. No other preamble other than hearing that click.  Then we piled into bed – under the covers. A nap was the guise.  Quiet time that sent the kids to their rooms – and the adults in to ours.   We got cuddled together…

Processing

I sat down in front of the computer last night with a blank document on the screen, my brain jumbled with the events and moments of the weekend.  I intended to write – whatever it was that was in there – whether it be a blog post, something I keep for myself – or share…

Wednesday Wanderings through My Mind

Monday at work, the director who has decided I am no longer needed reminded me and everyone in the room that I was gone in two weeks and it was time to start transitioning things.  It was a strange series of comments that made everyone in the room uncomfortable.  I personally stopped taking action items…

Outed to a Friend

My friend and I had just emerged from relaxing in the couples lounge. We had come early to help setup for the kink party at the local swingers club and laid in the couple’s lounge talking until the action started picking up. She had made a bee line for a friend she had seen. Her…

A Negotiated Spanking

An over-the-knee spanking was discussed and agreed upon – but that was just the start. A discussion about pain versus intimacy, technique, and boundaries were all even more thoroughly discussed after he found us a room. It was an opportunity that happened to fill a need that I had – a need for a spanking….

The week got off to a rough start. I won’t lie. It started with finding out something that resulted in my temper going off of the chart. I was angry. I was hurt. I was conflicted. I was not a happy camper. I won’t go into the whole thing because the details are not important….

Unplugged

Saturday morning as I was gathering my stuff to go to Seattle for the weekend, I made the conscious decision to leave the computer behind.  We were staying with friends – and I decided my usual excuses for bringing it were just that – excuses. Normally I would say that I’m bringing it for photos…

Picasso and Seattle

“I understand why some people enjoy having separate vacations” was G’s words to me as I called to let him know I was on my way home from my weekend trip to Seattle. I guess I should back up.  A few months ago, he made a trip up to Seattle to see a friend.  On…

Rekindling

Summer – 2009 We had been chatting and talking and emailing off and on for a couple of weeks before we met.  The chemistry between the three of us seemed to be there, and we were finally going to see if it would hold in person. It was one of the rare warm summer weeks…
