FFF 3 – 2-23
Older and wiser, that's me. Um, older anyway. And lighter!! Like 2-3 pounds lighter! How cool is that? Did I tell you that the medication they gave me made it 100 times easier to not binge on carbs and sweets? Yeah. And somehow, it's easier to exercise, probably because I'm not still carrying around the … Continue reading FFF 3 – 2-23
On the Occasion of…
...my 62nd birthday, it seems like the appropriate time to celebrate and count some blessings. I may have some health issues, but I feel pretty good most of the time. I have a job I mostly like that pays well. I have enough of all the material things in my life - and more. Much … Continue reading On the Occasion of…
But I Don’t Want To
"But i don't want to, Sir," i say, and even i can hear the whine in my voice. He nods, his eyes moving across me, taking in every aspect of my naked body, kneeling in front of him.

Saturday Sunshine
In case you couldn't see the meme: Mary Oliver: "I Worried" I worried a lot. Will the garden grow, will the rivers flow in the right direction, will the earth turn as it was taught, and if not how shall I correct it? Was I right, was I wrong, will I be forgiven, can I … Continue reading Saturday Sunshine
FFF 2-16: It’s Official…
i am officially diabetic. Or, as I pointed out to the somewhat officious nurse practitioner who broke the news to me, i am "a person with diabetes."

Happy BDSM Valentine’s Day
For the record, Valentine's Day is not my favorite holiday - It's a Hallmark holiday so there's too much pressure to "show" your love with material things and I don't like it. Although, in all honesty, I would probably like it more if I got roses. But MP, even when we were in the throes … Continue reading Happy BDSM Valentine’s Day
BDSM History for Fun

Monday, Monday
After all my fine talk about FFF, and wanting to get healthy, yesterday i binged on carbs and sugar and fat like there was no such thing as obesity or Diabetes, Type II. Yep. I ate some healthy meals - then filled in the gaps with a vanilla milkshake with 2 shots of espresso (yes, … Continue reading Monday, Monday
