2010 has been quite a year, has it not? The past 12 months have seen Aiden move in with us and become a part of our family. Then there was another move of epic proportions, taking all five of us, and the two dogs, over 2,000 miles back across the country. Back to Calgary and [...]

As badly as I wanted to move back to Alberta, and as happy as I am to be here, for some reason I feel…not quite myself since we got here. I haven’t been sleeping well, I’m edgier, more easily agitated, noticeably more negative in my attitude. I don’t feel like I have been handling things, stress in particular, [...]

I know this is going to make me sound incredibly spoiled, but I’ve never actually moved into a second-hand house before. At least, not a house of my own. Every place that Jack and I have lived since moving in together has been brand-spankin-new and generally built to our tastes. The current house came to [...]

Last weekend Aiden and I went camping for three days in Killbear Park. It was one of the most amazing places I’ve ever seen. We basked in the sunshine, scampered over rocks in our bare feet, saw baby foxes, and deer, and tadpoles, and frogs, and even a snake. Some highlights include a deer walking [...]

The moving truck should be arriving in a mere 4 weeks. 4 weeks. 28 days. Either way, the very thought induces both anxiety and excitement all at once. In that time, we have to pack as many of our things as possible, plan and execute a birthday party for the eldest child, visit Wonderland and [...]

Next weekend Aiden and I were supposed to be LARPing, for the last time at our regular game. However, after some thought and discussion, we decided to skip the event and go camping together out at Killbear Provincial Park instead. Aiden went there with his family when he was 12 and he has wanted to [...]

“Are you leaning today? If so, which way?” If I had a nickle for every time that Jack and I have exchanged such messages in the last few days, well I’d have at least a dollar. Then it breaks down to the numbers. Percentages to be exact. “I think I’m 95/5 at the moment. You?” [...]

Just when it seems that all is quiet on the home front, and we are beginning to settle into a rhyme and rhythm that suits everyone comfortably, fate tosses us a curve ball. Karma is rarely without a sense of humor. For the third time since our move to the eastern end of the country, [...]

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 [...]

Isn’t it always the way, that for weeks one has very little desire to write, and nothing much to write about, and then suddenly all hell breaks loose and there are more things to recount than there is time to recount them? Certainly seems so around here. Saturday at Tease was a mix of awesome [...]

Later this week I will be headed to Tease, which is a 5-day kinky camping event held annually here in SW Ontario. I’m really, REALLY excited about it, as I have been looking forward to it since December, when I bought my ticket. Now, I know a lot of you did not like those daily [...]

So nothing definitive came from Jack’s interview. It went well, and he feels good about his chances. The company has decided not to hire anyone until the end of July, and so we wait. Waiting isn’t the worst thing in the world, although I loathe any state of limbo generally speaking. I like to know [...]

This week could bring another of those life-altering changes that seem to occur with unusual regularity around here. The tides of change seem to wash away all of the plans we’ve foolishly bothered to draw in the sand. Jack has a second interview for a new job. A job that would have us move back [...]

Before I regale you with delicious tales of nudity, debauchery, and hot midnight fucking, I’m going to conclude the photo/list series regarding the visit from my friend. I know, I know, you want the sex, but these posts are more or less for my own benefit, so that years from now I can look back [...]

I wrote a little about the surprise trip Jack took me on to Niagara Falls before I left for Alberta, and now I wanted to share a few photos I took during our time there. I can also fill you in on the details while I am at it. We arrived around supper time. Jack [...]

We were both exhausted, and it felt like I was moving in slow motion. We got cleaned up, packed our things, and I ran down to fetch our complementary coffee and breakfast from the lobby. The coffee wasn’t that great, but at that point we didn’t care. We got a little food down, and I [...]

I’m sure at least some of you are looking forward to hearing the details of Padme’s visit to the GTA. I’ve decided to break up the stories into different days, since the post would be miles and miles long if I tried to fit it all into one Thursday was filled with angsty excitement while [...]

Varick phoned me yesterday re to check in with me. It’s always good manners for a Dom to get in touch with a sub within a couple of days of playing, to see if said sub is alright and to find out how they are feeling about the scene that was had. I was happy to hear [...]

Some of you may have seen mention of it on my comments board, but I figure it’s about time I actually blogged about it officially. After all, it’s a SUPER BIG DEAL, at least to me Padme is coming to visit me in just over a month! Master Anakin (her husband and Dom) has already allowed [...]

Earlier this evening I booked dinner reservations for Jack and I at Susur, for tomorrow night. You see, when I read about Susur months and months ago, on my favorite foodie blog, I fell instantly in love with the idea of eating there. It was added to My Bucket List in the hopes that one day I [...]
