Welcome to August, y'all! The Roll Call wasn't up yet; so, I posted it.

Not a lot new going on in my life right now. Still staying with my parents, still with my man, still unicorn hunting, still job hunting. I have hopes of changing some of those in the near future. For now, I'm in a holding pattern, using the time to get my stuff settled. With school about to start, maybe a teaching position will open near me.

I'm back, sorta. We'll see for how long.

I have a bit of spare time this month, I'm in Montreal more (business travelling slows down in August) and I guess I had a longing for this place (that's my slight maso side! :-p)

Otherwise, life is good!

LadyA its great to see you...

I keep thinking we'll get a break here, but between the heat and Life 101 as I call it, we haven't gotten one yet. We had a lovely vacation out west that included spending a weekend in Denver at Thunder -- that event has really changed since the first two -- and for the better I might add. We spent some lovely time on vacation and managed to hook up with a very dear and old author friend of mine. We also made some new friends. We went off to Arizona, hooked up again with old friends and then spent the rest of the time with my boi's family. She was happy, I was happy and it was a marvelous time! We took her Mom and Sister to a day at the spa and it was glorious. We had a ton of fun.

We came home to too much awful stuff, best left NOT rehashed at this point. And my darling boi is looking for a job as she's going to be laid off next month -- she's having a lot of interviews but being the inttrovert (as am I) that she is, its really taking a toll on her. She's getting a lot of calls back and a lot of interviews so keep your fingers crossed.

We are leaving town again this week to spend some time cleaning out my Mom's house down in Florida and with any luck that will go smoothly. We are driving a truck back.

My oldest cat seems to get more frail each day and I'm very concerned about him. I know he's going to go but I want to make sure ever moment is happy until he lets me know its time. He's my constant companion when I'm home.

I'm sure there is more but that's what is on my mind these days... stress in our house is palpable; we are, however making our way through it.

Things are moving along in the great white north.  Believe it or not, I'm going camping with two score of kinky folks this weekend.  I'll be doing some private instruction on fire play and needles.  Since moving, there are two people of interest. Either of which would be a good fit for the household.

I was just looking at some other threads about a loss in a local community.  Due to that, I'm not quite as forthcoming on this thread that I might have been.

Criminy, it's AUGUST!

The Calibirthday was wonderful. My office got painted, badly, but the new lighter colour is pleasing, the darker green made it TOO dark on grey days like today. I love looking out a WINDOW!! Next up is figuring out what to hang on the bare walls. I have many things, but it has to look RIGHT. I have a lot of Lynda Barry stuff, that I cannot afford to frame right now.

I have divorced the "community", but one of my pals says I am in FWB status because I still see some friends. I don't agree. I am enjoying the schadenfreude far, far too much.

I'm growing my hair out. Granted, my hair's maximum length is only about as far as my bra line, but I am liking the feel of it on my back again. Naturally, I default to the ponytail when it gets on my nerves.

Funny old thing, life!

Great to have you back LadyA, you have been missed!!

August is my least favorite month of the year. It's long, there are no holidays, and it's right in the middle of the off season for NHL. Unless I am on a tropical island, at the local beach, or traveling, I am generally grumpy. Business is very busy and I am having huge burnout - another symptom of August. September can't come any sooner!

On the kinky front, evaluating a potential gem who is also local, and the possibilities are quite interesting.

August is already busy and things will not be slowing down any time soon.  School starts early this year to make up for all the snow days last winter, so I'm scrambling to get school clothes and supplies for my oldest.  I'm also preparing to homeschool the youngest for kindergarten because I refuse to send him to the pitiful joke that passes for a school district here. 
 
I'm also working and honing my skills in chandlery, jewelry and soap-making with the goal of selling handmade gifts.  Sadly, this means my personal writing has slowed to a crawl but I can live with it.  It also means there will be no kink in my foreseeable future.  I can live with that too and, oddly, I don't really feel like I'm missing anything.

Things are going here. I believe I mentioned last month that I did not get the promotion that I applied for - but I'm ok with that ... I just wish that they had hired someone who was actually going to be available for us rather than him still not being around a month after "starting" ...

We have baby rabbits and baby chickens. It appears that my Shih Tzu is going into heat again - if she catches then it will be her last litter. The rest of the critters are all the same - cats are crazy, dogs are annoying - lol.

In other news, I can't remember if I said I finished the quilt I was making for our niece or not, but I did ... now I'm getting ready to start a monkey-appliqued one for our nephew. I haven't decided if I'm ambitious, or completely out of my mind ...

Daddy and I are moving in together this month so that means each of us thinning out her or his belongings to make room for our belongings. We also have an addition to our family....I have a poly sister now. We'd known each other for about five years and knew we were both poly, it was right under our noses but none of us had any idea until recently.

I'm patiently waiting for a sub of my own, not rushing it because that never ends well.

I'm getting ready to make raspberry jam, lots of it, and I'm looking forward to the blackberries coming ripe too and making some of that. Then the peaches. Yum.

This last month has been crazy crazy busy, and yet dead also.

My regular, paying the bills job, dead. But I have to be here so however dead it may be here has no bearing on getting anything else done.

The photography stuff is exploding. I finally got the website up and running but with limited photo examples as I have yet to recover everything lost on my crashed external hard drive... that will take some mad cash I haven't got.

Motocross still going strong. Had the two grands, that are not addicted to the fumes of racing fuel, for a whole weekend.....oye, two little ones not fully potty trained for a weekend is NOT my idea of a good time!

The two that are addicting to racing, will be spending one of their few, motocross free, summer weekends with me, next weekend. That should be a blast.

Got through the raspberry picking and now waiting on wild black berries. No apples on the trees this year so no made applesauce making and canning....both a "Yay!" and a bummer.

Had my 13yo nephew stay at the farm unexpectedly because of my dumbass oldest brother thinking it was a brilliant idea to bring him back to Iowa from Colorado, for a month......without a plan as to what the young man was going to actually DO while they were at work. Apparently dumbass brother and his cunty wife made the youth feel very unwanted and uncomfortable so I got an impassioned plea phone call from the lad's father, asking if the boy could stay with us. I couldn't take time off work to entertain him but apparently, hanging out at our house with dogs and a big screen tv is better than hanging out at another house where there is tension and dumbassery.....who knew!

Still loving the gym and yoga when I can get there......wish that was more than 2-4 times a week but hey....it is summer and busy.

Still working on the flagstone patio project.......as can. When the temps shot up over 95 with humidity over 80% I just cannot force myself until evening hours when the sun isn't blasting. Wish it would rain. I am tired of watering flower and veggie beds. There are huge cracks in the yard BUT, the up side of that.....very little mowing! Except, the poison ivy invasion has not been slowed by lack of rain..... Every few days I grab my industrial size sprayer of Roundup and patrol the property. I am not allergic to the stuff but other family members are. Generic Dude doesn't even seem to need to touch the stuff to get it horribly. He's even had to be hospitalized in the past. I don't want to listen to all the bitching and moaning so I am on a mission to eradicate the shit. Ma Nature is not a helpful accomplice.

Generic Dude has been gone a lot. This is his slow time of year business wise so he has been taking several short vacations. One was a big fishing trip in northern Minnesota and another was a motorcycle trip with his mom and her husband. He also had his big 3-0 class reunion that took up an entire weekend of festivities. Today is golf......rough life!

As for BDSMy type stuff.....a girl that has visited me in the past, was supposed to visit in August but broke her foot terribly last month and had to have surgery. So that has been postponed until all the medical stuff is over.

Lots of forward movement this month! Have finally made significant progress health-wise after a scary surgery-gone-wrong in June and I'm back to my energetic self. The path report was negative! MUCH gratitude to my friends, neighbors, family and domestic sub for taking such good care of me during this time. My band is playing lots of new music in preparation for a dance coming up in the fall...it will be our contra debut. After a 30-year hiatus, my fiddle-playing has finally gotten the rust knocked off and is reasonably tolerable to listen to. Another positive note is that after 7 long years of utter hell for the neighborhood, the infernal house-of-horrors dog boarding/grooming kennel behind my property has finally gone too far and will have to shut down! I feel like a POW who has finally been released and can actually enjoy some peace and quiet in my backyard for a change. The entire neighborhood is celebrating!

The weather here on the central Ca. coast is spectacular...those I know and love are safe, happy and content...I'm going sailing for a while later this month...all is well

Hmmm ... some people told me a couple months ago, that one day, when I least expect it, I will run into You in an airport, some where, some time! Of course, I laughed!

Now though, I think I will be keeping my eyes open ... in airports, as well as pubs in airports!

Welcome back, even if Your only waiting for the next flight!

Thanks! Oh but don't look for me in airport pubs (I don't drink alcohol when I travel) but rather at the duty free and boutiques, or the lounge catching up on work! ;-)

I've never posted in the Roll Call threads, so "hello" to everyone here.

August is starting out nicely for the most part. Work is going well, but staying motivated is difficult at times with various people being on vacation when I need to pick their brains. Last month, I spent a week with Hibbie and the other ladies in Florida at Calibirthday (which was amazing). The dolphin boat cruise was really lovely, as was just hanging out with my lady friends I've made on the site.

School for the Things starts later this month, which means Mom gets to start checking homework and such, too. (who knew that being done with school doesn't really happen till your offspring are out of school?)

I'm also looking forward to next month, when Geoff and I will be spending a long weekend together, and he will get a chance to meet some of the other people from my area who post on the boards, as well as my little family.

Take care, ladies, and have a great August!

Nothing much has changed for me of late.

With The Crucible in a state of inbetween, and closed -- I have taken up my hobbies that are more vanilla and have ignored for a very long, long time.

Still quietly grieving the loss of Slave Joey. Its been three years now. Talking to a very dear slave but the distance isn't helpful, though we have many things in common.

Body is getting older and less able. Beats being 6 feet under though!

Hope the triple digit heat is gone for the year. August at times has a reminder that heat is still around.
