Good Morning!
While I normally harbor an unnatural love of Mondays, on this particular morning I am fighting a sinus/chest infection or something of that nature and so am not as peppy and upbeat as usual.
I did have a lovely weekend, however, and so that makes up for the fact that I’ve run myself somewhat into the ground [...]

It’s Monday! I realized, while driving the eldest minion to school this morning, that I haven’t blogged in over a week, but I promise that I have good reasons for that.
Last weekend I went out with friends on Friday night and saw Daybreakers (pretty good movie, but unless you’re really into non-sparkly vampires, I would wait [...]

Things I learned over the weekend:
Metal shoehorns will leave bruises with hardly any effort at all
People get kind of excited when you serve Cornish hens and leave them whole. Like “We get a WHOLE bird? Each?”
Kolach, while the most beautiful of breads, is less like bread and more like a giant pretzel
Even candles that are [...]

I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the tail-end of the holidays, since the departure of Jack’s parents on Tuesday.
After dropping the in-laws off at the train station early Tuesday morning, the kiddos and I drove out to Aiden’s and picked him up, and he’s been here since. He has to go back to work on Monday, but [...]

I know I haven’t been terribly prolific with the posting this month, and unfortunately that’s unlikely to change until early in January.
Jack’s parents arrive this afternoon, and will be staying with us until early on the 29th. While I normally greatly enjoy their company, this year I would have preferred to avoid dealing with any [...]

It’s been five days since Aiden fastened that lovely steel collar around my neck, in a sort of impromptu exchange that only involved the two of us. Earlier in the day we went over together and finalized our contract. We also went over and agreed upon the rules (some of them were a little harder [...]

I’ve hinted and mentioned here and there that Aiden and I have a certain amount of D/s in our relationship. For those of you who are maybe not familiar with the finer points of kink relationship dynamics, D/s refers to Domination and submission. One person in the relationship is the Dominant, and the other is [...]

I woke up early Saturday morning, packed up my things, left a goodbye note for my siblings, who were sleeping off our late night out, and then walked to the 7-11 on the corner for a coffee. Caffeine in hand, I walked to the skytrain station, bought my ticket, and waited for my train.
I got [...]

Aiden drove me to the airport on Wednesday night so that I could catch my flight out to Vancouver. I had booked the trip in August, as I didn’t have a chance to see my siblings over the summer holidays, and I’ve missed them a great deal. It was also a great opportunity to hang [...]

Having just returned from spending four awesome days out in Vancouver, I’m reluctant to settle back into the daily demands of ‘normal life’ but settle back in I must.
Details and photos of the trip are pending, but I don’t have the time or inclination to upload the pictures and relate all of the stories just [...]

As promised, an entire blog post devoted to vaginas! Ok, just my vagina. And less about my vagina and more about my uterus. Hooray!
The evening before the appointment (Wednesday night) as ordered, I got out the Misoprostol. Two little pills, shaped like hexagons, to be ‘inserted vaginally’ which is what I did, while wondering if [...]

Tomorrow afternoon is my appointment for the IUD insertion. Apparently I am also lacking Hep B vaccination, so I think they are going to give me the first of three shots for that while I’m in there. I switched schools in the middle of grade 12, when everyone was getting vaccinated, and so I only [...]

Last night I had a rather vivid dream about K (among other things). Believe it or not this was actually a welcome shift from the nightmares that have plagued my subconscious as of late.
In this dream I was having a large gathering at my home. It was a BBQ or something of similar nature, which [...]

So in just under two weeks, I’m going to get an IUD. A Mirena IUD to be precise.
This is not a decision I came to lightly. In fact, when I entered the sexual health clinic a week ago, I was already of the mind that I wanted my tubes tied. Not right then of course, [...]

The only unfortunate aspect of having a whole lot of awesome in ones life, is that it generally doesn’t allow a lot of time for writing, LOL.
Not that I’m complaining Karma Gods. Please don’t kick me in the ass for appearing ungrateful.
Between spending time with Jack, the kids, Aiden, the dogs, and trying to get [...]

I’d set my alarm for 9am on Sunday morning, but after waking up just long enough to shut it off, Aiden and I went back to sleep until around 11. After getting up (which seems, for some reason, to take us a while, LOL) and putting some clothes on we ventured out to find some [...]

I know, it’s been too long since the last time I wrote anything here. After our 36-day ‘vacation’ away from home, all I’ve wanted to do since coming back is catch up with Aiden and clean my house. The first one I’ve mostly accomplished, the second is on my ‘To Do’ list for the next [...]

Has it really been a week since my last post? I suppose it has. The time has flown by, as is to be expected during days away from home.
We reached Edmonton late last Wednesday evening. The kids and the dogs were troopers during our trek across America. We drove through three new states, which bring my [...]

You’d think that a long drive across America would be the perfect opportunity to get some writing done, but for reasons unknown, the ideas I’ve been mulling over just don’t want to gel into anything useful.
While I ended up having to cancel my date with Kade on Saturday night, I did get to spend almost [...]
