Awesome.

Well, to start with, I'm single again. I always knew it was coming (minor LDR with neither party willing or able to relocate). It gave me a taste, and a better understanding of what I'm looking for. Not sure what lable fits me, but I'm not worried about it.

I've also found myself the organizer of a monthly kink friendly crafting event. Not sure how that happened, but we'll see where it goes. The first one was this month, with a poor showing. Admittedly it was the Sunday after an all night art event with a big bondage component, so I'm not that upset. It's the time slot that I was given for free at the venue. We'll see how the turnout is for November. If there isn't enough of a presence, I may open it up to general public. Basically it's a stitch and bitch, but wider focus (since I don't knit). The idea came from a discussion at one of the local munches, and I love it. I hope it works as a kink/alternative lifestyles event, as I want to meet more people in the community, but the idea has merit in the vanilla world too.

As for work, it's quieted down a lot since the fall launch. I've been spending much needed time sorting through things and putting things away. I've been waiting over a year to start this process (since my boss retired). I've taken the oportunity to learn a new program while designing a desk for one of our shows. I'm hoping to compete (somewhat) with the professional set designers in the past. Mostly it's the chance to learn a new skill.

On the home front, I'm moving back into my parents house temporariy while they do a driving trip for 5 weeks. It's a chance to have some alone time away from my housemates, and gives me a chance to polish my piano playing, since they have one, and I don't.

October....what can I say.
I believe I have finally worked things out with my honeybee. We lost the baby but friendship, kindness, and maybe even love survived. He is still seeing someone about some issues he had before I ever met him and I think it is wonderful. He doesn't seem as angry or as scared to say what he thinks and how he feels now. As for myself....we have now moved onto the second cast for my prosthetic. I think I have a bit of a crush on my prosthesist. He is a very sweet young man and if he asks me to race him one more time I might just take him up on it (he walks I don't) I am still mentoring a young dominant male and I have to admit at this point there are times when I want to smack him in the face. He is a lot like a little brother to me but he is young and likes pushing buttons. He likes trying to test me to see if he can make me angry....he should give up. We have been working on his skills with a four foot whip and fencing. I know it may sound silly but I have always believed that fencing teaches a person a lot about self control.
On a personal note someone else has stepped up and said he would like to take part in my "life"....yes he actually made the little finger motion when he said it. He really isn't someone new except in that way. We have been friends for awhile now and he has some interest in...dundundun the "lifestyle" It is probably a bad thing that the only thing I really want to teach him right now is how to shoot pool without embarrassing me.
Right now the family is all gearing up for holidays. We seem to be having a few issues with where everyone is going or if we will be home but I am sure we will work it out. One of the girls gifted me with a spice cake today and I haven't had a chance to have any because it is not going to agree with the meds I am now on but in a few days doc says it will be fine.
Should I ramble forever here? To many things going on and I miss some of your folks. I hope things here and in each of your lives have been well and continue to be so. I also hope I will be able to find some more time take part in the conversations I have been missing.

Go ahead and ramble...There are times I go "oh shit, I forgot to mention...".

Right now, I am still suffering from a cold. Mom is delaying returning home until tomorrow. I am hurting real bad (wrong bed position) so I am waiting for the pain pills to kick in. Today is Bo's birthday and I tried to wish him one on FB but the site is fucked up.

Hello everyone and welcome to all of those new to the roll call.

Himself and I are doing well, still married after 6 months of wedded bliss.

I told my therapist I worried that Himself would change now that we're legal, it turns out *I* was the one who changed. For some reason I started compulsively watching everything he put in his mouth (he's diabetic and doesn't have the best diet).

I found myself coming close to nagging him.This is not a trait he enjoys (does any man?)

Anyway, once I realized what I was doing, we had a good talk and figured out some things we could both do to improve his diet w/o me feeling I needed to rag him about it.

For some reason, being his wife made me take my responsibility towards him diet wise much more seriously. I've found you never know how these things will hit you, which is why you keep talking no matter how long you've been together.

On a very positive note, I'm seeing my sub next month. A much needed visit as we haven't hooked up in the flesh since the wedding 6 months ago. Among other things we will be celebrating both our birthdays, as I will be 60 in November, and he was 65 in Sept.

Best to all, CP

Thank you for the kind thoughts but don't worry to much about my/our joy. The baby being lost has taught us a great deal about each other and in a way made us stronger because of it.
And because "oh, shit, I forgot to mention" ..... I had two heart attacks last week (I am impressive in a very weird way) The first was caused by a very low sodium level, I admit I did not know a lack of salt can kill you, the second by a blood clot that was made when they did the angio for the first. And don't anyone go saying OMG, how sad about that either because in total this is six and the second time the hospital has caused my kidneys to fail....oh, yeah, they work again now...must avoid hospital before it gets me killed hahahaha. Anyway there is more than likely a load of other stuff I forgot about too but I have to go give someone a really painful handjob then roast a pig. Be back later to see you lovely folks.

I am finally back amongst the living!!!!

I had my second surgery in less than a year this past august, this time it was a subtotal hysterectomy for my adenomyosis and endometriosis. While I've been cleared for sex since a month out, anything close to what we like was a possibility until this weekend. It was nice to know we still got it since most of the past year I was completely out of commission. I was lucky if I could walk, drive, go to work.

So the past week or so has been a huge relief. Though I still am more tired than usual, my sleep is a mess. And some of the more fun parts of our repertoire are out of bounds for probably a few more months.

Right now I can't sleep, oh well.

It's nice to be able to post here without wanting to cry, due to a lot of my favorite things being no no's.

I like having my life back, and have gained a whole new appreciation for it.

Jeez, MIP. prayers go out to you and your fam. I hope everything starts looking up.
I've never heard of lack of salt causing heart attacks either.

Thanks, Lucy. I'll take those healing thoughts and virtual hugs too; just got word I'm out of commission and in a sling for 3 months w/my shoulder issue. Can't play music (thus work), no yoga, swimming, dancing, hill hiking. Flat walks only. Simple things like putting on a shirt, doing dishes, showering, driving...all a struggle. Can not find any comfortable position, so it's difficult to sleep and rest without pain.

Whine over. Best to all who need healing.

Sheisreeds: after going through what you have, I can suggest keeping an open mind about what will work with your 'new body'. For me, some of the old ways never worked again and I had to start from scratch. It can be a long and frustrating process. Patiently experiment. Feel free to PM on the other side if you'd like.

Thank you, K. Maybe I should write something up and post it in the health forum. I really do have to admit as heart issues run in the family I have avoided salt my whole life and did not know it could hurt me. That mixed with dehydration....well lets just say today my doc got to utter the words "You should be dead" I am going for a personal record on getting docs to say that now. She is the seventh to say it, second in the last week. They don't understand why I take it in stride while I am pretty sure that is the reason I'm not dead. The way I see things is that it is just another twist life is throwing me to see what I do with it. I will admit though that I do hate hospitals and could stand for spending a little less time in them. They are cutting into my play time and making my honeybee freak out (he is to young to understand what being sick is)
I really hope you and everyone else here are doing well, or in some cases better. If not keep your chins up ladies each of us is strong enough to fight whatever is coming at us now. :)
