Well, the last week or so has been super rough around here. Moog's ex-FIL passed away and while he was away for that funeral with his ex and their boys he got the call that his grandma had passed away. Some spring break. And to top that off, I think the odds are pretty good that I'm pregnant...

I love that movie. Capaldi introduced it to me many moons ago, lol.

Overdue update Well, seeing as it's been nearly 10 months since my last post, I feel I should probably check in, lol. Moog and I had a few issues towards the end of last year. His anxiety was getting the better of him for I wanna say a few weeks leading up to Thanksgiving. I noticed something...

It feels like it's been a long, slow start to the summer around here. Started with my ear infection I mentioned in my last, brief post. Ended up with our oldest in the ER not too long after that due to a cooking mishap. And I've been kinda freaked out about our budget recently, so we've haven't...

Ugh, ear infections suck. :-(

And, not to leave Moog out...here's a pic from last summer.

Another crazy hectic day. Short round of errands became a nearly all day mission to find Capaldi a suit for his interview next week. I'm not allowed to share on FB since he's friends with the two coworkers he's likely up against for the promotion, but I figured it'd be nice to share a pic here...

Nah, I'll just keep hoping and try to not overthink things too much. But I'm thinking that if Moog does move on I will most likely be done. Poly seems to be situational for me. Even now with all I have learned & read I don't feel the need to get involved with anyone else and there is nobody I...

I actually was just amazed at the complete turnaround. For the most part, I'm okay with the idea. I mean, I did start this whole thing, after all, lol. My main concern is time. With both guys working 40 hours (second shift & 40+ in Capaldi's case + school) and with the combined number of kids...

He sees me as a friend with benefits, to the best of my knowledge, based on a previous discussion or two that we have had. He doesn't see himself staying with us for forever & has said that he still wants "someone of his own". Of course, after the unexpected turnaround from Capaldi, who knows...

Anyone else actually ever have the more reluctant partner in a formerly monogamous relationship do a complete 180? Capaldi initially went along with the idea of polyamory back when I first brought it up to him & Moog last year extremely reluctantly. After some really bad times over the summer...

I may give that a try. :-) Well, originally he agreed to give things a try last May and it was shortly after that that things went south. So I tried my best to leave well enough alone for a while. Our current arrangement started the day after Christmas last year. At that time Capaldi's only...

Anyone else actually ever have the more reluctant partner in a formerly monogamous relationship do a complete 180? I mentioned Capaldi's sudden change of opinion in my last post. And it has gone even from being super mellow about my relationship with Moog, such as it is, to, kinda at my...

I'm not sure there is any insecurity or jealousy left. It's like it just clicked for him that one night that I could love both of them. I'm not entirely sure how this total 180 degree change in thinking occurred, lol. He's even bringing up the idea now of the both of them doing terrible things...

Busy week. But that's pretty much described the last month. Capaldi went to UofM's first community college summer institute, which was pretty awesome for him. He should have his associate's by next year. And after that it looks like he will be attending UofM for their cyber security program...
