She was laughing and blushing a little bit, as she always did when he laughed at her accent. It was a southern accent for sure, with a touch of country, and she thought he laughed because he liked it. So she was blushing, self-conscious, and protesting that she didn't sound like that, which only made him laugh … Continue reading Dom Magic – In That Moment

Alpha Submissives
I've considered myself a alpha submissive since I first heard the term. In my vanilla life, I don't seem submissive - only the most astute Dom would think that I might be. I've always been grateful for the term alpha submissive since it seems to explain something about me. I used to really like the term "princess … Continue reading Alpha Submissives
Thoughts on Submission
One of the comments on my poem yesterday was from David, over at Dispatches from Dystopia. David and I have known each other a long time and have seen each other go through all kinds of changes over the years. His comment really hit home with me. He said: "This is a proclamation that passion … Continue reading Thoughts on Submission

Sofia and Lucas are dancing in my head again, but I need this session now. My much anticipated conversation with MP and my daughter that … Continue reading More Therapy, Please
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…
