Almost ready for bed here, worn out from grandparenting today, being on vacation and therefore available to do all kinds of helpful things. It’s a good kind of tired though, and nice to know that the boxes needing to be unpacked is getting smaller and smaller.
Sir has run out to get batteries for our thermostat, so the air conditioner will work and we won’t have a heat stroke over night. Needless to say, i appreciate that a lot.
But sitting here waiting for him to get back, I had a sudden memory of how it feels to have someone stroke my hair, gently pushing it back from my face. I had such an urge to feel that again, it was almost overwhelming. And for just a moment, i felt my “little girl” deep inside me. (There ya go, Jade. Not “good girl” energy, but “little girl” energy. That’s close, right?)
Date night is Friday night, maybe i’ll mention it.
Hi Olivia,
This made me smile 🙂 A good tired…sigh. Sounds like a good day with the grands and yay on the diminishing boxes 🙂
Ah, having my hair stroked..yes please 🙂
Hugs

Thanks, Roz – it was a good day, and a satisfied kind of tired. Nice that you can relate to my sudden desire to have my hair stroked! Hugs…

Mention it.
Even the best of mind readers need to be told.
So much vulnerability in the telling/asking.

DO mention it. And I think I’m going to need lots of hair-stroking soon too. I’ve been adulting too darn much lately.

Thanks, Fondles, for that extra nudge. I’ll do it. And you have been adulting an awful lot – and had a lot to deal with!! Hope you get all the stroking your heart desires!!

i had asked SR if there was a good way to try and communicate about energy with you. She told me to go for it, but added with a frown, to not say “babygirl energy.” but-that is what works for her, and i don’t know how to get around talking about energy without that part. i tried to, though. She was pretty emphatic that you don’t have babygirl parts. i said there was a good girl in there…and yep getting in touch with little girl feelings can be delicious and overwhelming, all at the same time. Tell Him. Remember, he’s alive inside. He needs to know that you are, too. ❤ ❤

Yeah, i get “energy” for the most part, I just don’t have a lot of little girl energy accessible. As a child, I just wanted to hurry up and be a grown up, and i’ve always felt like the whole “being a child is so wonderful” thing was pretty much nonsense. None of that Build-a-Bear or “let’s color” for me, thank you very much. So there might be a hint of little girl sometimes and good girl for sure, but it’s buried pretty deep. I will, however, tell him. And hmpf, i’m pretty sure he knows i’m alive. Lol. ❤

I was the most serious child ever. I only discovered that I had a real child inside (not a mini adult) as an adult. BAB and coloring is fantastic, but certainly not mandatory and has nothing to do with good girl energy.
