Most of April was spent in a state of terminal exhaustion, as I was wrapping up my mother's affairs after her death in March, which means that my affairs are now piling up and need to be dealt with.  I'm in the middle of a make-over:  my hair is now shoulder-length and is really red with lots of blonde.  I'm getting rid of old clothes, handbags, make-up, etc. - really focussing on what works, buying a few great items, and tossing all the rest.  I've also lost 16 pounds so far this year.  My apartment is next for a huge weed-out; I've no time and no space for anything that really, really doesn't need to be a part of my life.  My health, fortunately, continues to be excellent.  My 50th birthday is in a couple of weeks, and I'm feeling pretty damned fabulous.

I've already paid for my air fare and hotel for my trip to London later this year, so it will be nice not to come home to a big bill, and I'm spending a lot of time reading up on contemporary art, as the purpose of the trip is to attend the Frieze art show and fit in as many galleries and museums as I can.

Men continue to be a huge frustration and, frankly, I'm just tired of them.  I'm so profoundly disillusioned by the ones with whom I've been in contact that someone fantastic could be standing right in front of me and I wouldn't know it.  The only way I'd reconsider some of them is if they *really* shaped up, and I'm not holding out much hope of that.  So, a mixed bag, but pretty good, overall.

Venatrix, I'm quite sorry to hear of your loss, and here's hoping that you can get your affairs in order now.  *hugs*

We're currently still waiting for puppies - I just groomed Pandi and put a topknot in her to keep her fur out of her face when she is trying to take care of puppies (seriously, I'm thinking labor will be starting any minute - she's getting anxious and cranky).  Now I just have to keep her from taking the topknot out LOL

It is hard to believe that 4 months have already passed.  With the downturn in the economy...I can't complain.  My business is up about 20% for the year...I don't know what happened, but I am happy!  I will take all I can get right now, because I am afraid  it will turn around.
Would like to meet more people here on CM, but so far I am happy.  Have a great May and let the flowers bloom!

While I was at work last night, Pandi went into labor and produced another 4 beautiful puppies!!!!!  All males this time, three are various shades of brown - two of those have black masks - the 4th is a very dark brown and white.  All of them have their mothers white toes and white tail tip.  Yes, I'm already in love

In other news, I've finally given up on my headaches going away like they used to and I have a doctor's appointment on Monday morning.  I'm hoping for some good meds.

@SweetDommes  yeaaa for puppies!!

May finds us still somewhat recovering from March, yea, it was a real ass kicker.  April flew by with a few pokes, jabs as well as smiles mixed in for good measure.  We're all alive, upright and able to dust ourselves off.  All good things!

Our schedules are packed so no fetish events this month for us *sulks*.  But!!! That leaves me with a bit more time with my new baby.  An 18 year old quarter horse due to foal ON my birthday in August!!!  Yea, I'm still doing the happy dance a week after getting her home. 

For those parents of teenagers (girls mostly) out there, here is a bit of hope for you all. 

For as long as I can remember, I've wanted a horse.  I think they are the most beautiful animals on the planet.  Well, my darling daughter, whom I declared Satan in disguise 15 years ago (when she turned 13), decided it was time mom got her wish.  She has several horses and plotted against me to get one of them to my house.  To the extent that she was paying for the gas to drive there, giving us the electric fence she had set up, tossing in food... every excuse I came up with she countered.  When I finally asked WHY she was so insistant, her answer shocked me beyond words.  She said, because you have spent every year since we kids were born giving up what you wanted and many times what you needed.  I can't recall a single one of your birthdays, Christmas that you've gotten much of anything for yourself.  It's always been about us kids and we're all grown up now, it's time to do something for yourself.  Come get your horse. 

So, on this day before Mothers Day, remember....eventually the desire to choke them does subside.  lol instead I sit here still in shock trying to figure out who that beautiful  young woman is and where satan went.

@Ms Francine

I know, it sucks that we can't make ANYTHING this month.  Blasted family stuffs anyway lol.  But, I'm home most every afternoon if You want to come out for lunch and to meet the new "princess" of my house. She is quickly getting spoiled with the "star treatment" she's been getting around here!  I mean... the horse had a welcoming committee.... at midnight no less! LOL. 

@SweetDommes like I said... I keep wondering where Satan went.  This is the daughter that when she moved to Germany with her husband, I said it was "almost far enough away" LOL!!  They DO grow up and realize that yea, maybe we weren't completely insane after all.  She's doing a fabulous job raising my grand daughter and well... she's come a long way from the brat I wanted to choke daily.  :) 

@Miwsi  happy belated birthday!

We're working on names for the puppies now. 

The red one (looked brown to me this morning ... I was tired LOL) is Brimstone.
The darker brown one is Book.
The lighter brown one is Bart.
And the Chocolate/White spotted one is ... we haven't decided yet.

Someone says puppies... someone else says guppies and now the puppies are born... but as I read.. I am reading the colors of guppies! Those are some amazing guppies! OMG!  lol I think it is time for bed!  I went out to find a non kink hose so I don't break my back with it and looked all over town only getting lost once and broke my back doing it.  puppies... guppies...  non kink hoses, I may have nightmares tonight! lol

I wanted to respond to those going through good times and trying times... but I think I better wait on that!  I will just say... I am so happy for some and saddened for some others.

Ok, totally off topic, but since Holly is asking for help from random people, I get to too, right?

Apparently, Holly doesn't like the name Brimstone for the red puppy - and she wants to name the last puppy Baltar (from Battlestar Galactica) which I don't like.

Anyone have any TV show themed names that start with B?  And keep in mind that they are all boys.  (and yes, Bob Barker has already been rejected - pun or not, Im not naming a dog that ...)

ORIGINAL: LadyHibiscus

April...  we had our family birthdays, the tax season concluded, and I have less than ten days left of my Empty Home Holiday!  Would someone like to come powerwash my driveway, or put my address book into Excel?  I'll feed ya!

On other fronts, I have been declared an official FAKE, so as well as being imaginary, I am artificial!   I know that you are all madly envious, especially of my new imaginary tiara and strappy sandals. 

I am reconfiguring my relationship with my many possessions, and rehoming, tossing, and donating inasmuch as I can force myself.  I am saving the fiber and bead stash for last.  I wish that winding yarn skeins was some kind of glamourous service task, and I could have all sorts of companions eager to do it, but alas, not even the women are buying into it. 


invite them over for something else fun, present them with the skeins, and put a big plate of tim tams on the sideboard, they have to get through all the yarn before they can indulge.
