Wow. I remember this thread. I'm still wishing them success.

I'm alive. I'm having some medical problems which leave me achy and tired and irritable (seems like all of the time). It's tough for me to tell people how awful I feel. I'm trying to keep moving like normal. I think things are going just fine with the quad. We're talking about moving in...

Well, as I see it, Easy doesn't have any free time, so I research for him and teach him what I find out. In this way, I, the service-oriented submissive, am teaching him to be a dominant. I'm also figuring out what I like in the process, so I'm sharing that knowledge, as well. I just had a talk...

I think our family Solstice celebration went well. I was so happy to have everyone under one roof! We had a wonderful turkey and lumpy mashed potatoes (just the way I like them!) and roast asparagus. Moose was stealing the asparagus right off the platter, which makes a mom feel good. :) Asha...

Really quick, I just wanted to say thank you for replying about the community and whether I should worry. I've already talked to Easy, and he said forget them. If he has a problem he'll let me know. So I guess my responsibility ends there. Asha isn't pressuring me. She just mentioned that she...

As far as our relationship goes, as far as I know, Easy, Asha and I are doing just fine. Asha wants to be accepted by the community because play parties are something she enjoys very much and misses quite a lot. I want to be accepted by some of these people because, well, I enjoy their company...

LOL! I know we're supposed to take a break when we get sore, but when you're working with a deadline, what are you going to do? Merry Christmas, to you too, LR!

I'm always a day late and a dollar short. We homeschooled because I was bullied mercilessly throughout school, to the point of writing suicidal notes in my journal when I was ten. I'm not saying this for pity, but as a fact. I put my son, reluctantly, in public preschool because it was the...

Wow, time sure flies when you're insanely busy. My cousin made me cry...I posted earlier that I was in trouble for talking religion and politics. Even though she was mad about my rocking the boat, she had heard me mentioning that I was having trouble with my nails splitting and peeling, and...

I have a question for people active in their local BDSM communities. I'm worried, but maybe it's for nothing. I was talking to Asha today, and she said that she had seen me snub Easy during a munch we went to. I know that some of the people here are very judgmental and concerned with how...

Oh, boy, so much going on. Monkey is performing all of the time--she's in ballet, marching band, and choir, so we have parades, concerts, choir performances, The Nutcracker, rehearsals, and promotions to attend. It's crazy making. Then we have Moose's Winter Fine Arts night, which is...

I can be a real idiot sometimes. I admit, I haven't evolved into a ball of pure light, and it doesn't look like that development is on the horizon anytime soon. I apologize to everyone and to my partners most especially if I've done them a disservice in this blog thread. I tried to make sure...

I must be feeling better...I have the worst urge to say, "Well, since no one ever responds to me I'm going to leave the board. Good-bye, cruel world!" which is totally sarcastic and not true, just me entertaining myself. I have a weird sense of humor. But since I'm feeling mischievous and...

Better this week. Saturday was Asha's 40th birthday, so we went to a potluck at her house. There were lots of people there, and I was still having trouble with depression, so it was tough on me. I did manage to force myself to be friendly and social, eventually. Strangely, Sunday actually...

Late post this week, I've been fighting depression and needed some space. Last weekend we all went away with another couple for Asha's birthday. We rented a cabin at some hot springs. It was very nice--there's nothing quite like sitting in a hot pool while your hair freezes into icicles...

Thanks, LR. I'm thinking of you and sending good thoughts your way. Not much time for the big family this weekend, so we got together for dinner at a restaurant last night. The kids were all snippy and tired, and the restaurant was loud and I have no voice, but all in all I think we had a...

The poly couple I knew who were poly before they had children, were a primary relationship. I didn't really discuss their relationship with them much, so I'm not sure how they handled who the father of their children would be, but I assume that she used birth control with other partners or...

We've been having a tough time lately. Last Friday was Asha's mother's birthday; Asha's mother passed away a little over 5 years ago. We didn't call her to check on her, and she was upset. Then I was upset that she didn't call if she needed to talk. Then Saturday we celebrated her...

It's tough to deal with teenagers. Hang in there, they grow up eventually. My 16 year old was 14 when he figured out that we were poly, and he was already good friends with the couple who make up the other half of our quad. Well, being friends with them didn't help even a little, he had a...

Thank you. I'm honestly a little stunned by the idea that I could be a strong person--I feel weak and whiny. I'm having some computer problems this week, so I was forced to steal Moose's computer. This weekend was a fabulous one for my little family. We had a birthday get-together for...
