I just realized it's been almost a month since I posted anything here. It's not that things aren't happening here. They are. In my vanilla life and in my submissive life. Little things, big things, all kinds of things. Here's a sampler of the kinds of things happening: I got a message from some Dom … Continue reading A Sampler of This Life

In Season
It's summer in the US - well, in the whole Northern hemisphere. Surfboards and swimming, sweaty afternoons, sunshine and the pool. Long walks in the early morning or evening. And food. Rainier cherries are in season. It's a short season for these cherries, which are the most delicious cherries ever. I don't know if they're … Continue reading In Season
“Take Off the Belt”
No, my Sir has not told me to take off my belt - thank goodness! You may already know that I wear a belt under my clothes every day. I put it on when I get up, take it off when I go to bed. The belt reminds me that my Sir encircles and holds … Continue reading “Take Off the Belt”

Father's Day and Summer Solstice on the same day!! Well, Father's Day in the US anyhow. I've been thinking about both today. Summer Solstice is lovely, all warmth and fresh fruit and vegetables, walking in the evening or the early morning... I love summer. “…This is the solstice, the still point of the sun, its … Continue reading June 21, 2026
The Ritual – Release
I am sitting on the deck of this lovely air bnb overlooking the river. Watching large commercial ships, a steamboat full of tourists, and little motorboats blasting music parade by me. Walkers and joggers too, on the walkway, never more than a few at a time. The street lights illuminate them, and I am hidden … Continue reading The Ritual – Release
The Ritual – Enactment
{The first part of this story is here.} I begin with the wooden spoon, tapping lightly at first, then not so lightly, covering all of my bottom, even the sit spots. I have been given very clear directions: this should be a thorough warm up, but not last too long. When I begin to feel … Continue reading The Ritual – Enactment
The Ritual – Preparation
I bathe first, washing and rinsing myself with care. Trying to stay focused, not to think about what comes next. The implements are already laid out on the bed. The wooden spoon, the hanger, the belt, the tawse. And the dildo, the little pink vibrating dildo. He is not here, but he has given me … Continue reading The Ritual – Preparation
I Can’t Tell You
Sometimes, I spill all my secrets, tell all my stories. Sometimes, I hold them tight inside, barely voicing them to myself. I share the sting of the hanger. "Two sets of twelve," he says, "On both sides." I bring you with me for the whoosh of the belt, landing with a firm whack, leaving a … Continue reading I Can’t Tell You
Parking at Archery Camp
I'd been home about a week before I started feeling a longing for more kink. Or for spankings. To feel more of my Sir's control. Yes, I have still have all my rules and protocols and lots of connection with my Sir. And I just needed alone time for another spanking. I know, that might … Continue reading Parking at Archery Camp
The Adventure: Reconnecting…
This was an adventure I didn't want. A trip to visit MP's relatives near Where-We-Used-to-Live to celebrate his daughter's graduation. Two days of driving the mobility van to spend three days there (in two different small towns) and two days of driving home. His family is fine, they're good people, we like each other. And … Continue reading The Adventure: Reconnecting…
