I think of it as a therapy technique. When clients are resistant to change, it's pointless to argue with them. As a therapist, I would take a step back and just acknowledge that they didn't actually have to change. Then we could talk about what would happen if they stayed on the same path they … Continue reading Rolling with the Resistance

On Strike?
I have been feeling a little bit lost lately. Work is not going well, entirely my own fault. I’m back to not doing the things I need to do. Apparently, I can not do my work for any number of reasons. Too distracted, too busy with other things, too tired, too unsure of what to … Continue reading On Strike?
Another Voice
If you've been following the conversation in the comments on words, you'll know that there's been a lot going on. The person who got me started on this theme was Helen from Ten Shades & Me - and she's done a post following up on why she wouldn't accept being called slut. Five reasons why … Continue reading Another Voice
Words, words and more words…
I'm laughing about today's WordPress prompt for today: If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which word would it be? Why? I'm not one to ban words just on general principle. If I were going to ban any word, it would probably be the n-word, but then there are black people who … Continue reading Words, words and more words…
What about Slut?
In a comment on my last post, Helen of Ten Shades and Me offered that she doesn't like the word slut. She noted that it's overused, almost banal, and not creative at all. I can't argue with that. At the same time, it doesn't affect me that way. In the Meriam Webster dictionary, slut is … Continue reading What about Slut?
More about Spanking
I've been thinking about the changes in myself this time around with Sir X. I like to think of myself as a gentle, easy-going person, kind and non-judgemental. And in some ways, I think that's accurate. However... I can also be opinionated, stubborn, rigid, and difficult. I know - shocking, right? I think that in … Continue reading More about Spanking
Spank-o-rama
That's what Sir is calling our Wednesday maintenance sessions now. A Spank-o-roma. And it was. He thought 68 was too high a number of strokes, so he took it down to 34. 34 with the thin paddle, 34 with the medium paddle, 34 with the heavy paddle, and 34 with the leather strap. Yikes. Ok, … Continue reading Spank-o-rama
It’s My Birthday
I'm 68 years old today. I have no idea how I got this old. I can still remember thinking that by the time I was this old, I'd practically be dead. And yet - I'm not!! So Happy Birthday to me! We're doing the family celebration this weekend, but Sir and I will celebrate tonight, … Continue reading It’s My Birthday
Settling
Today, I meditated. I saw clients. I went for a long walk. I cooked - sautéed shrimp and portabella mushrooms, fresh zucchini, squash, and cherry tomatoes. Sir reassigned me the task I didn’t do. This time, I am to do it every other day for 10 days, and report back to him each time. I … Continue reading Settling
