This post is a potpourri of vanilla and kink, Christmas and Solstice, and includes music, planning, and some quick fantasy. If you're just here for the kink, you may want to pass. Every Christmas, I share my favorite non-traditional Christmas music. I already shared The Christians and The Pagans, which is probably number 1 on my "hits" … Continue reading Tis the Season

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…

So it will help if I get started … Continue reading Three More 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
More Celebration
Not feeling dreadfully celebratory today, but working on it. Actually starting this post from the doctor’s office, waiting for the doctor. Already saw a resident, so they’re consulting now. {Edited to add: I left the doctor soon after that, before I could write any more.} {7 hours later} Got home from the doctor and have … Continue reading More Celebration
