As you may know, I am a huge fan of Slave Shae. If you don't follow her already, you may want to. I've become a bit addicted to the series of posts she's doing with a theme of being shared with a Dom she doesn't know, one whom her Mistress has loaned her to. Addicted … Continue reading A Slave

Hard Truths
So here’s a thing. Maya Angelou, I think, says, ”when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.” I’m not always so good at that, but once I finally get there, I’m there. I was also raised to believe you don’t talk about family problems in public. Sometimes, I adhere to that, … Continue reading Hard Truths
Happy Summer Solstice
“Let us dance in the sun, wearing wild flowers in our hair…”― susan polis schutz I can’t say I celebrated today… I had a dentist appointment at 7 a.m. (just a cleaning, but still!) And clients til 8 p.m. With breaks, but still. I am a bit brain dead. I will have to celebrate another … Continue reading Happy Summer Solstice
It’s me
Just popping in… I’m working a lot, but not too much. Not getting rich, but keeping the wolf from the door. Still moving every day, getting my steps in - not 10,000, but closer than I used to be. Progress, not perfection, right? In other news, I have a therapist I really, really like. He … Continue reading It’s me
Strange Thoughts
I finally found a therapist - yay! - who is different from any therapist I’ve had before. I like him a lot so far. And I had a blinding flash of insight after our session today. Photo by takenbytablo on Pexels.com Ok, it was probably not actually that dramatic… but here it is. I feel … Continue reading Strange Thoughts
Nope
Nope, that wasn't my Dom. It's over before it began. All the fluttery thrills of yesterday are like dust in the wind. (Yes, that's also in a song. No, I'm not posting it here.) No, I don't know why. He sent one last, short, sharp message and disappeared. For a minute, I was thinking, "Wait, … Continue reading Nope
And the band played on…
This post... Sometimes I know what I want to write and how I want to say it and it all falls into place. This is not one of those times. I started out thinking about my world spinning, as the world does, and how sometimes you can almost feel it turning. And I was going … Continue reading And the band played on…
More on Food
Trigger warning: More on food and other unsexy things... Ran across this quote today: “When we give up dieting, we take back something we were often too young to know we had given away: our own voice. Our ability to make decisions about what to eat and when. Our belief in ourselves. Our right to … Continue reading More on Food
Me and Food and Existential Kink
** Trigger Warning: This post will discuss eating habits, feelings about food, weight, bodies, society and who knows what else. If that type discussion is uncomfortable for you, please skip it or do whatever you need to do to take care of yourself. Now here's an ocean picture before we start. I did a wonderful … Continue reading Me and Food and Existential Kink
Rebooting…
She waited anxiously, trying to slow her breathing. 'They probably won't take me anyway,' she thought. 'Who knows how many candidates they've had?' She took a deeper breath. 'But they did call me in for an interview.' She felt her heart pounding. She was alone in the room, a small anteroom with a desk and … Continue reading Rebooting…
