Happy New Year
Dear Flist,

First and foremost, I miss everyone. I know I have not been around for several months. I do pop in and out and try to keep up with things, but have been very bad at commenting.

This year has been very good and very hectic. I am in the financial world so needless to say that the past few months have been nothing short of crazy. Lots of long restless nights.

My older son graduated from high school and started college. All that is great except that he has to come home every weekend to see the girlfriend. And because he is a freshman he doesn't have a car at school. so guess who picks him up on Fridays?!

My younger son started high school and is very involved, which is great. It also means lots of behind the wheel time which is not so great. (Nothing that any other parent has not experienced)

I had major surgery this summer.  All is well and had a fairly speedy recovery, but that speed kept me from being online much.

But the major part of this year is that I have found someone very special. As I have said in other posts, I had been through a LONG dry spell, but all of that was broken once I met John. And I have to give credit where credit is due. These two ladies set me on the path. So all my love and thanks to vamphileand not_yet_defined. Last New year's Eve, Vamp had established a chat room that was lots of fun. Great conversations by lots of folks and we all got to celebrate New Year's several times. In one of those conversations, Ny was talking about her experiences as a sub in a BDSM relationship. She was very open and answered all sorts of questions.  She even provided links to several websites. Well, I had long had bondage fantasies and figured that if I didn't act now I never would. 

As luck would have it, there was a local BDSM group that was having a munch on Jan. 3. A munch is a meeting in a local restaurant, no play, just a social gathering. So I went, and met several very nice people who didn't think I was off my rocker. Two weeks later was another munch and that is when I met John. The group's first party at the dungeon was an eye opener for me. First of all I was scared shitless walking into "that place". I felt sure that i was going to be killed and no one would ever find my body! No shortage of drama queen in me! But I went in, and had a wonderful time. John gave me my first spanking and it opened a whole new world for me. I started going down almost every weekend and once John and I got together I am there every week. We have our own room at the house and the mistresses are great. Now if my children would only warm to him all would be good.

So Happy New Year dear flist. Even if you don't see me, I am here. You are all very dear to me and I do hope to have time to get back in the swing.

*Hugs*
