I have a long-standing fantasy about having a Dom who would manage my behavior so that I do all the things I "should" do for my own good. It used to be exercise and self-care things he would manage, now that I'm more or less where I need to be on that, I'm looking at … Continue reading For the Record, Y’all

Not Too Hot, Not Too Cold…
Tea with Ms. Constance was always a treat, and Delilah thought that today was no exception. Ms. Constance had a larger-than-life personality that fascinated Delilah, and she could listen to the older woman telling stories for hours. But they didn't have hours today, just a short visit over tea, a good opportunity to get her … Continue reading Not Too Hot, Not Too Cold…
The Paradox of Submission
Submission: the action or fact of accepting or yielding to a superior force or to the will or authority of another person. e.g. "They were forced into submission" The whole point of submission is that you're doing what someone else wants you to do. My long-time-ago unoffoical Dom, Mike, used to say, "You know how … Continue reading The Paradox of Submission
Celebrating the Day
Wishing you all the joy of whatever religious celebration is yours - Easter, Passover, or Ridvan. The grands had Easter egg hunts and baskets and all the pleasure of searching for treats. I listened to Jesus Christ Superstar, which is my tradition. As a former Catholic, mostly Buddhist now, or Wiccan, or something, Easter is … Continue reading Celebrating the Day
Unbalanced
I've been thinking about this quote from Alain de Botton. There is no such thing as work-life balance. Everything worth fighting for unbalances your life. Ever since I decided to quit marketing my business and lean into semi-retirement, I've had new business drop into my lap pretty steadily. My plan was to work for the … Continue reading Unbalanced
Another Saturday Night…
I think I live in song about half the time these days. I hope you're all already playing this oldie in your head. but in case you aren't, here it is. Another Saturday Night by Sam Cooke. https://youtu.be/0O8m0mMDpHw?si=dJWsaC0Ox_QsUfeW "Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody..." I guess that sounds sad, but if you listen … Continue reading Another Saturday Night…
Recalculating…
Do any of you remember when MapQuest, or whatever app it was back in the day, used to let you know you'd gone the wrong way by saying, in a judgmental tone of voice, "RECALCULATING..." before it gave you new directions. Sometimes it told you to make a u-turn, sometimes it just sent you around … Continue reading Recalculating…
Who Thought Thongs Were a Good Idea Anyway?
What I noticed the most yestarday was feeling the material of my pants rubbing gently against my skin. The skin that my panties no longer mostly cover. My pants (think yoga pants) were a silky material, so it was a pleasant sensation. A few times, I even ran my hand over my ass in a … Continue reading Who Thought Thongs Were a Good Idea Anyway?
Spring Equinox and New Beginnings…
Celebrating the equinox because right now, there is balance between day and night, poised for this one day. From here, the days will get longer, the nights shorter. Warm winds and sunshine are here, life is good. And my life is changing. My word of the year is Rooted. Turning toward myself, listening and acting … Continue reading Spring Equinox and New Beginnings…
The Dance of Submission
I just read a post by Jon Grey, who goes by Master Grey, that really resonated with me. So much of what he wrote abut D/s relationships connects with how I see them. His post is called "Shut Up and Dance: The Journey vs The Destination." This is one of several posts he's done lately … Continue reading The Dance of Submission
