I've been having a tough day today. Had the grands a bit longer than I'd expected, they were cranky, I was cranky. I really just wanted everybody to go away and leave me alone. Once my daughter got home, I retreated to my part of the house and read a bunch of other people's spanking … Continue reading Introvert, Inc.

Trying
Trying not to be jealous-hearted y'all. My daughter and some friends have gone to an event in a near-by city. An event I had once thought I'd love to go to myself. Yes, a kink event. A play party in a dungeon there. No, I don't think I'll ever get to go to that particular … Continue reading Trying
What’s Next?
Today was a lovely day, relaxed and pleasant, had fun with the grands, and all is well. Ok, not "all" - my teeth my have some issues. {You can not imagine how much I don't want to say that, but facts are facts.} In other news, I'm working on taking more time separate from the … Continue reading What’s Next?
So This Is…
... Christmas. Thank you, John Lennon. And Paul McCartney. I appreciate this opportunity to match Christmas and Beatles music. Ok, not Beatles any more, but you know what I mean. https://youtu.be/QHLd7HQfZfA I've had a lovely day so far, and have enjoyed everything from opening presents to writing this blog post! In fairness, I'll tell you … Continue reading So This Is…
On the Eve…

Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than … Continue reading On the Eve…
Just One More Day…
Just stopping in for a quickie - no, not that kind... {haha} Here's another terrific Christmas song - a new rendition of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. You have to listen all the way to the end to appreciate it. {I think another blogger turned me on to this... if she or he sees this, please … Continue reading Just One More Day…
Three More Days and Counting…
Today, I'm making vegetable soup and cookies. And tonight, we're going to do our annual drive-around-and look-at-lights with the grands. At least, that's the plan. Also, I need to do some clean-up, straightening and organizing. And probably 30 other things that just aren't on the list yet. So it will help if I get started … Continue reading Three More Days and Counting…
Winter Solstice 2019
Winter Solstice, when the day is shortest, the night is long and often cold. I found this lovely article 13 Fascinating Winter Solstice Traditions Around the World. It's pretty interesting. But the Winter Solstice tradition - or ritual - that I am most drawn to is the one that involves writing down the things you … Continue reading Winter Solstice 2019
5 Days and Counting
That's days til Christmas you know, and the preparations have pretty much taken over my life. All my intentions to write {14} of Lucas and Sofia? Not likely to happen. Not today anyhow. I woke up too early, again, and am also not being very productive. Sigh. I just read this article that says getting … Continue reading 5 Days and Counting
Connections – Part 2 {13}
He helped her stand. He moved the kneeling bench to one side, positioning her in front of him, still within reach. It was warm in the room, in fact, Sofia realized, she was uncomfortably hot. Master Lucas leaned forward. "Turn," he said. "Slowly. Stop when I say." Slowly, Sofia began to turn, a sudden memory … Continue reading Connections – Part 2 {13}
