Stretch
Nothing beats a good stretch! It is good for the body and the soul. There are many reasons to stretch. Some are better than others. Before you do your workout or exercise, you stretch and warm up. It makes sense. You are about to stress your muscles and break them down, so they come back stronger and start burning all the fat you see covering the muscles. When you stretch, you reduce the risk of injury. Very important when you are working out so you can work out the next day without looking like Bambi on the lake! Let’s face it, that look is only cute on Bambi. When we…

Waiting
Waiting is the worst part of a long-distance relationship. It is always worth the wait, regardless of how difficult the delay is. His attention, his touch, his strength are worth whatever I have to go through until we see each other again. I have found ways to busy myself while I wait for the next time, which can never come too soon for me. Our power exchange is not what most people typically think of when discussing the D/s relationship. Yes, we have obvious dominant and submissive roles, and those lines are rarely blurred. Our play is consensual, and it is satisfying to both of us. What I have come…

Soapy
Soapy and lowering into the bath, I am looking forward to relaxing. I do not take baths often. I love them, but I haven’t focused on them since I moved to this house. It isn’t very comfortable in this bathtub, but I realize how much I miss it when I decide to take a bath. This house has horrible water pressure, and the water temperature is either lukewarm or scalding. So finding a relaxing balance is difficult. It takes forever to fill, but eventually, it makes me feel much better when that balance is found. I have been having some back issues and was hopeful that a warm bath would…

Celebrate
Love your birthday or hate it, we all have them. Considering the alternative, it is a good thing. I have found that the more times I celebrate my birthday, the less I care about what the celebration looks like and more about who I am celebrating with. The number of times I have celebrated my birthday is a little daunting these days. The alternative, as stated before, is more daunting. Last year, my health scare made me evaluate my perspective on a larger scale than before. I have always thought of age as just a number. My number seems quite a bit distant from most of my friends. They are…

Just One Day of Love?
Valentines Day is just annoying to me. Just one day of love? Shouldn’t this be something we focus on year-round? My birthday is February 15. The day after the day of love. When I was a kid, my Dad would always show up on Valentine’s Day with a small stuffed animal and a small candy box for my sister and me. That is my best memory of this day. As I got older, it just got annoying. Valentines Day became a challenge for men (back in the day, that was the focus, so don’t shoot me with feminism on this one. I’m 57 years old today – it was literally…
