Sheltered


My dear friends, great minds think alike and you guys (M:e, Paul and Lessa) have unequivocally convinced me to stay where I am for the time being. I do feel a bit safer here, kind of like being in a sheltered cove within a large and powerful lake.

I'm VERY glad that I've dipped my toes into the water once again and have found a new place for myself but I'm not yet ready to feel the full blast of bloggerdom.

Besides, this really is still just my place to vent and talk about me, not as much about sex and spanking (cause there is none of that in sight anytime soon). Not that that is a bad thing, just that it does single me out as a little different from the rest.

Not so much because I'm not being spanked or having sex, but because in this place and this time right now, I honestly don't care enough to try to change anything. Family health takes precedence over everything else right now and although it has been hard to face, that has forced me to accept life as it is now (and to be happy and content within those parameters).

Anyway, I do feel safe here and I also know that here I CAN vent about anything or everything (yet somehow having that freedom makes it less of a necessity to actually do that). I know I am surrounded by my very best friends who only seek to share my life with me and offer their support. This place doesn't have a persona of its own besides being my little piece of cyberspace, no hidden agenda, no great expectations except to be the truth, my truth, shared with you.

Thank you for giving me this gift, on this day... you each make every day a miracle!

Busy Bee


This will be the ultimate quickie... and something of an apology for not being around for about two weeks. I haven't read a single blog in more than a week (possibly two) and in all honesty, I probably won't for another week or two. Time is shorter than it's ever been around here, at least time to spend reading or emailing or doing anything else computer-related. But I'm definitely NOT complaining!

Life is good overall. And even in the not-so-good stuff (mostly health-related), I'm looking at it with a different attitude than I've leaned toward in the past. It WILL all work out and we will all be fine, even be closer because of the past year's "stuff."

But back to what I'm doing that keeps me away from here... it's all related to the kid, of course. In one respect or another. Baseball games start this weekend with a double-header. He's in the Easter pageant at our church, singing in the choir, learning two really tough songs, taking standardized tests the next two weeks and we are also involved in the set building for the Easter pageant.

So our days are long and we spend most of our time away from home, or so it seems, but we're basically having fun and filled with excitement and lots of new beginnings.

Anyway, I'm not ignoring anyone out here on purpose... and as soon as I have time to sit down for more than five minutes, I'll be back. I'm even thinking of going back on my idea of this blog and posting again at my main old blog.

So here's the question of the day, for whenever you have time to answer:

If I were to start posting again at my old place, do you think that's a good idea, bad idea or really could care less either way? And why?
