I've been having a great weekend. This morning I feel on top of the world. It's Thanksgiving weekend here and I have made lovely food and spent time with family. It's a sunny bright day after a month of rain. Last night was a fun dinner at PN's mum's house and today we are taking our camper van...

I live in a house now where I spend times in different areas of it for different reasons. I live between two houses. Downstairs I live with Mono. His furniture that we bought together, his space that he rents from PN and me. He does the housework and makes his own meals. He has his own bed there...

Part of my breakdown this spring was due to the amount of activities and relationships I took on. I had four partners that all had lives, challenges, issues, changes and plans that involved me on many levels. I am not the sort of person to sit on the sidelines of people's lives. I am either in...

Yes I live with PN, Mono and LB. We all raise LB, support one another, make plans together and are family. Not much has changed for PN and me, other than neither of us prioritise each other in social plans or for dates. For Mono, the change has been bigger, in his head, that is. He feels...

Confused and NutBusterX thanks for your messages. It means a lot to me to know that I have been interesting to someone. Yes, I am definitely not quiet on the secret FB groups I host. lol. I can't shut up ever, really. Talking and relaying my inner experience has always been the best way for me...

Hello. Just thought I would say hi. :) As you can see, I am no longer a mod anymore, after about five years of daily attention to this forum. Strangely enough, no one seemed to notice I was gone about a month ago, or at least didn't make mention of it to me, anyway. What a weird feeling to...

Lots of love Catfish. :)

I'm not sure if it's good bye forever or not, but it's good bye for now. Thanks for keeping a light on. :) *hugs*

I won't be writing here anymore, I don't think. My poly head is filled with cobwebs and tangled messes of new ideas and thoughts, but none of it is for public consumption. I am unwilling to share much more than random boring updates about what I am doing, as if it were a log of my life, with...

Hey II, Um, I don't quite know how to say this to make a point, but here goes. I asked you a couple of times if we could hang out during the last months. I thought you weren't interested, so I backed away. I enjoyed our talk at that BBQ a couple of months ago and thought you'd make a great...

So good to hear from you Sage, Bridgidsdaughter and of course, you too, Ari! I just stopped by to say we are off on our Oregon coast bike trip tomorrow. There is a lot going on for me in good, clarifying and settling ways, but I will write when I get back. For now, there is a break in the storm...

I'm in shock and disbelief. What a wonderful person to of lost. What happened? Do you know? We are going to poly camp this month and I was looking forward to seeing her. :( sad. Very sad.

Update is that there is some headway on my me stuff. :) Sitting in it all is working! I am generally more content alone than with others and actually crave alone time. I get sad when I know I have to be in the company of others some days.

Thinking of you Mags as I caught up a bit on your blog. Nice to read your news. Lots going on as usual. Hugs to you and good luck with that uneasy feeling. Have you met her yet?

Cleo, the article link you sent was super helpful. Thankyou. I read it several times and will again. InfinitePossibility, I agree, loneliness is just something I will feel from time to time. As does everyone. Reading the article Cleo sent put a different perspective on that and gave me...

Yay! You said you'd be back, and here you are. Big fat hugs to you and yours. It was so great to see you a few weeks back. Made it even better to see you here. Thanks for your grounding and supportive words. :)

My mind is beginning to come alive again in so many ways. I'm so excited! I'm shedding the bogged-down word poly, and accepting that each relationship I have is an entity all its own. There is no need for any label when there is opportunity to discover each relationship I have with everyone...

It makes just as much sense to me that I get dental and chiropractic covered with my insurance. Mental health is just as important. Our taxes cover the regular stuff, such as visits to drop-in medical clinics or to my family doctor. Even the crisis line I was told I could call if I felt suicidal...

Nope. It's not covered and is usually around $100 a session. If it were cheap or free, I would go. Cheap therapy is not much less a lot of the time. The woman I saw in the fall is poly and her fee was over $100. She is the only one in town and besides, as a poly person, one of the only ones I...

I'm focused on me now. Being my own primary. Mono and I are together. PN and I aren't, in the romantic sense. We all live together still and have no plans for leaving our house or changing what we have at the moment. I am not identifying as mono or poly. It's way too early for that, and besides...
