LadyPact -> The December RC (12/1/2013 2:28:48 AM)

I just realized that it's officially December in My time zone. It's time for the roll call of the new month. If you're new around here, the roll call on the Mistress board is just a chance for us to catch up with each other. Share what we want about our personal lives. Whatever each contributor feels is significant.

I'm still in candle making production. [sm=gaah.gif] I feel like I'm not ever going to be finished. I had hoped to be done before the second and now I can't imagine being finished before the fifth. This is absolutely the last batch until after I'm out of the state.

As some folks have noticed, I'm quite happy these days. I still kind of feel funny talking about it. I blush a lot. I laugh a lot. I seem to smile all of the time. If anybody around here had asked Me if I was going to be reacting like this six weeks ago, I'd have shaken My head in disbelief. I might just giggle to Myself for a while.

What's new in your world?




TNDommeK -> RE: The December RC (12/1/2013 8:45:26 AM)

December is my favorite month!!! CHRISTMAS!!!!
We put the tree up, which happens to be my first REAL tree. It was such a joyous day.
We even have a few gifts under there already.
I've started decorating the house!
I also get to decorate the club! Lol I'm in the spirit!!
Speaking of.. I'm gonna get the girls(dancers) to do a food drive and toy drive this year. I think that would be nice.


Hmmm what else.. Ah, I'm going to my parents in a week or so. I'm excited about that.

Hubby announced we will be taking an Aspen trip in March! Super excited. Never been.

That's all in my world!





LafayetteLady -> RE: The December RC (12/1/2013 9:25:41 AM)

So glad to know you are beaming again LP. I think it is wonderful. Y'all will be leaving Alaska soon, won't you (if I remember correctly).

As for me, my son is still being a major asshat. When my best friend visited with her husband and son (they live in Germany), we took a ride to my son and his fiance's apartment, knowing my son wouldn't be there. My girlfriend wanted to meet my granddaughter. I have an amicable relationship with my daughter-in-law, so I wasn't worried about that.

Well, let me tell you....when my granddaughter saw me at the door, her face lit up, and she was grinning from ear to ear! I hadn't seen her since late August. She jumped into my arms and didn't let go until we left. It was wonderful!

Working with my granddaughter's mother, I will hopefully get to spend more time with her. It's sad that at the moment, I don't really care if I ever see my son again, but it is difficult not to see the baby.

Found myself a therapist who is great. She makes up for the shrink who prescribed a medication that would have killed me since she ignored my telling her about my diabetes and thyroid issues (which were also written in the report she insisted my therapist write).

I spent Thanksgiving with my friend who I stayed with a couple of years ago helping take care of her dying mother. It was really great being in a place where I am loved, wanted and appreciated. My friend's exact words when she found out I would have otherwise spent the day by myself were, "no, you are coming home for Thanksgiving."

As many of you told me when the shit hit the fan with my son, family is not built out of blood but out of love.

What will December hold? Who knows? But I'm having a much happier outlook at the moment.




PheonixRose -> RE: The December RC (12/1/2013 10:22:48 AM)

Well LP and LafayetteLady sounds like your December is starting off wonderfully.

as for me black friday i pulled a cyber monday early ordering my Chipmunks Christmas as well as ordering Master and pet their sorta Christmas/yule gifts though they are necessity since we are going to be not smoking real cigs in our house :D

on another note i am now officially in week 8 of school with 4 weeks left as of today. My grades have been playing a little bit of yo yo games. Got 2 A's and one C that is working its way slowly back up to a B. The goal is a B in it by the end of the 12 week term which will be just after the new year starts.

Chipmunk is getting big. She is 28 lbs now and about 2 feet 7 inches almost 2 ft. 8 in. [:D]

Her christmas presents include Learn and groove music player andRead with me scout/ violet.

My Ex girlfriend and her husband are "getting" Chipmunk christmas gifts too as well as hopefully sending my letter jacket to me.

Other than that i have no clue what else im gonna get her for christmas other than the 2 year subscription of AbcMouse.com for her schooling [sm=Groaner.gif]. yea so unless she is in bed i dont get the computer for school and hanging out in here LOL.

Speaking of school i gotta get started on this weeks work.

Hope everyone else has a good day and check in reports.

See yall around sometime probably after Christmas. Have a kinky good time.

PS. speaking of kinky good time. I got permission from Master to hang out with a couple friends of mine and do a kinky photo shoot. They also have an UM so my daughter, the chipmunk, will have a friend to play with during the photo shooting :D. its gonna be interesting because some of it is kinks that i haven't explored yet. so it should be interesting. I'll let you know how it goes.




ShaharThorne -> RE: The December RC (12/1/2013 5:16:32 PM)

Just dealing with the gout and fibromyalgia. I got to refill 6 scripts tomorrow and see my nurse. Got to watch the 50th anniversary episode of Doctor Who twice with Lizard. Dealing with colds, ordering books and Christmas presents.




LadyAnne68 -> RE: The December RC (12/1/2013 6:22:26 PM)

I'm still frantically knitting Christmas sweaters for my grands. The ones shipping to Alaska are done. It's the ones for Austin that I'm still working on. Next Christmas all my grands will be in Texas or Oklahoma, so they will not be getting sweaters.

My daughter and I are planning one last trip in the Spring for me to sight see in Alaska before her family moves to Texas. It's fun visiting her wherever she lives, as there is a great deal of variety of climates and places to go.

I just got my first, very own, floggers this weekend. One is deer and the other is elk - made in New Jersey, USA. I'll be testing them on Thursday. Spanking and flogging are my slave's reward (or punishment) for doing housework and chores.





NiceButMeanGirl -> RE: The December RC (12/1/2013 7:52:47 PM)

LadyPact & TNDommeK, it's nice to hear you are so happy! LafayetteLady, it's great to hear that you had some time with your granddaughter. PhoenixRose, it sounds like you're getting a head start on Christmas shopping and, Shahar, I'm sorry about the fibro, I know how that feels. Congrats LadyAnne on the floggers!! Have fun using them. [;)]

As for me, I went to my family's for Thanksgiving and my sister, the only one in my family that knows I'm poly, outed me to everyone. I was going to tell them soon anyway but, because of her, I just had to explain it a few weeks sooner than I expected. Everyone was fine with it, once I explained it was not cheating.

Right now, I'm still writing to the Canadian gentleman and I'm also corresponding to the gentleman in AK who was my long-distance sub some time back. We're reconsidering or, rather, considering whether to take up again or not. The Canadian gentleman, well, there might be some issues there due to the Canadian border not letting me in(long story I won't go into). The gentleman in AK, I know it would be an intermittently real-time thing with long-distance keeping in touch in-between times, but we know each other from before, so we're taking things slow.

NBMG




PheonixRose -> RE: The December RC (12/1/2013 9:26:43 PM)

Sounds like good fun in your household LadyAnne.

My family knows now and well Some still dont know but its ok the ones that care know so yea. I so am happy that it went well for you because i know when mine happened i was scared out of my wits as to how they would take it.

Again NBMG Shahar and all. Hope you have a good month and will see yall around.




CynthiaWVirginia -> RE: The December RC (12/2/2013 12:43:27 AM)

I get very depressed from October through February (too many "ugly anniversaries" lumped up together), I just can't get into the holiday season. I'm trying...watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas helped. [;)]

bo's aunt is dying from lung cancer, and we were told on Friday that she was likely to pass on this weekend. His mother is bad off and is very demanding. Life is a bit rough right now, but...if it ain't one thing it's another. Life happens. At least bo's surgical nightmares seem to be finally behind him.

I've been playing my new Pokemon X game, my son has Pokemon Y, and bo bought himself several games as well. I've gotten "friend codes" from others in the Kinky Pokemon Nerds group over at Fet and have been exploring their Safari Zones (think of three cute animals in each friends' zone that may not ever show up on my own game otherwise...and some animals are CUTE!). For the first time ever I've been successful at "Masuda method" egg hatching and have gotten two of my shinys this way. Triggering hoard attacks again and again to make a shiny show up, as other players recommended, has worked for me, but I'm a complete failure at "consecutive fishing" to get shinys, cuz my startle reflex is too intense; it makes me pause a moment and then most of the fish get away, breaking the chain. A friend of ours has caught several shiny Pokemon this way and said, "NEENER NEENER NEENER!" Drat. The only way I got some of my own back was to Masuda hatch one of the starters (a Chespin) and turn the guy green with envy.

Christmas is going to suck this year. I'm too tired for it. The friend who lost everything several years ago due to a divorce has her own place now and has no Christmas decorations; the highlight of my holiday season is going to be going through my half dozen plus tubs of Christmas decorations and putting aside some to give to her next week.

bo will be putting up two more floor to ceiling book cases up for me soon, so...my energy will be spent finishing my VHS and DVD tape inventory (over a thousand) as well as going through all of my books (I'm giving away many but will still have a "vast" collection) to get them up on shelves and out of storage crates. I'll be happy when this chore is finally over and my hands are no longer raw from scrubbing off cases and book covers. (Mutters something about carpal tunnel going back down when all this writing in notebooks is over, lol.) What I really want to do is sew, but with all the table space filled with books and movies...

I left a sewing machine over at bo's house. Yay! With a little bit of luck, two faux leather fabrics I bought to make into floggers to practice florentine (going to put an eye out or break my glasses, most likely) are at bo's house instead of home where my house would...eat them. I have stuff put aside for a friend of my mother's who is away on vacation (three biblical study type encyclopedia sets), several boxes of old homeschool books and story books for bo's neighbor's kids, a box or two of my friend with some X-mas decorations in them, some stuff for the Salvation Army, some old soft cover and paperback books for the recycling center, and boxes of movies and stuff for two nearby nursing homes. I might have to root through all of these to ensure everything is where I think it is, and my flogger material isn't hiding somewhere it shouldn't. (I need to buy some Gorilla Glue, and I wonder if that wooden towel is still in my minivan, aargh.)

We have been asked to host someone's annual New Year's Eve BDSM party. It will be good to see familiar faces. Anyway, if the weather is foul...likely only a few people will show up. The second dungeon room has ugly carpet. [:(] I know I should focus on everything else that I am happy about...but I wish things could be perfect.

I had to cancel spaying two of my female cats because one of the newer ones chased one of my ancient cats, who fell from a high place while trying to escape and knocked a fang way out of whack. I had to take her to the vet to have it removed ($150, ouch). Last night one of the new cats went into my bedroom and howled "I'm HORNEY! Here I am, come get me and let's do the nastsy!" several times, wrecking my sleep. Putting a pillow over my head didn't help. I can't wait to shut her up by getting her fixed so I can once again get a full night's sleep. I'm a very light sleeper; if I had put her in the basement I still would have heard her yowls enough to be kept awake.

Am very tired and blathering. [:D] (I'm going to shut up now and go to bed.)






ShaharThorne -> RE: The December RC (12/2/2013 4:28:50 AM)

I got cats here...all outdoors. I hate it when people drop of pets because they don't take care of them. One of the cats had a litter of 4 kittens...one looking exactly like the daddy. The kids enjoyed chasing them around and catching them, with my and my SIL sexing them. The kids want to take the kittens home with them but my brother said no. He has enough with his own cat and they are dealing with a new puppy that is already housebroken. I'll ask Mom if I can get some cat food and feed the rascals. I think they are going to be good mousers.




MistressDarkArt -> RE: The December RC (12/3/2013 9:47:10 PM)

Happy December everybody! In just a little over a week, I can officially start using a Denny's Discount. I feel fine about that, but I wish it worked at my favorite sushi place instead. [&:]

It's finally wintery here in paradise. We had sustained winds at 40 mph, making a mess of the ocean and blowing all sorts of stuff around when I was on my hike. I didn't lock the back door and arrived home to find it wide open from the wind, 2 of the cats nowhere to be seen and the one that usually rushes to escape safe and sound on the couch (GOOD BOY!!!). Fortunately I found everybody in a few minutes and now we're all slabbed out by the wood stove.

Still moving agonizingly slow through the shoulder thing but it IS getting better. The new (and LAST, dagnabbit!) accordion finally arrived and I'm happy to say the 5-instrument, year and a half long quest for the ideal accordion is complete. The 10 minutes I allow myself daily to play it bring great joy.

Had a wonderful Thanksgiving with Huck here for several days. He is such a tireless and tolerant man; I'm no great prize to hang with these days yet every time I see him I feel so cared for in every way. When he walks through my door he brings an aura of softly-vigilant affection, comfort and safety to my household. I still marvel that he literally just dropped out of the ether here into my lap. (Actually, his lap is great to climb into and stay awhile.)

The band is stalled out with various injuries and illnesses. We're not booking anything until after New Year's, and hope we are well enough to pull off the long-scheduled huge gig 12/22. We've been practicing like maniacs the last 5 months for this. Fortunately we can reschedule if we're too puny to give them a good show.

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the month. Good health and contentment to all!




RumpusParable -> RE: The December RC (12/4/2013 10:41:23 AM)

Still working on the apartment (does this ever actually end? I don't think so lol).
Doing some modeling gigs, especially a really neat one hopefully next week.
Still working on my videos and such.
Pursuing the possibility of dating.
Visiting Delta family members for a serious task.
Starting making my own kombucha.




MariaB -> RE: The December RC (12/4/2013 1:55:58 PM)

Sorry to hear about your aunt Cynthia. Lung cancer is such a cruel illness.

Today I marzipanned and iced my boozy Christmas cake. The fruit that went into the cake had to be soaked in brandy for six weeks prior to baking. I absolutely love Christmas but I enjoy the planning, the baking and the making of things even more. This year I'm making a very strange Christmas tree. Will post pictures later! The reason for not getting a real tree this year is, we now have a puppy (a real one) called Jacques who is a bouncy delightful bundle of fun! I just bought him some snow boots and an all singing all dancing doggy ski jacket because its getting seriously cold and its extremely icy under foot. Dogs here get pretty tough but the salt they put down on the roads plays hazard with a dogs paws.

The skis are out and ready, the seasonal lift passes are in the post and Steves ice climbing axes have been sharpened and are sitting on a hook in the hall. I love the winter season and December always lays promise of exciting months ahead.





PheonixRose -> RE: The December RC (12/5/2013 1:05:20 PM)

Sounds like everyone is got a good december going.

my house just got packed with neighbors and such because we are winter storm preping because of the weather shift.

my Pet has about an Inch of ice with lots of it turning slushy so the freezing of it tonight will cause hazards galore.

our temps have dropped but the precipitation hasnt started yet. Got about 3 more hours till the worst is coming.

well i have school work to do. got 3 weeks left and then i'm done for a bit :D.




LafayetteLady -> RE: The December RC (12/9/2013 5:01:11 PM)

So the whole plan for seeing my grandaughter doesn't seem like it is ever going to work out. Her parents seem to be alsways too busy or too tired to bring her over or even answer calls or texts to arrange anything. As usual when it comes to my son , I get my hopes up just so he can crush them. Grandaughters gift is being shipped straight to their house. If I didn't she would probably never get it. I can only hope they tell her it is from me (I told mom to expect and what it wis) and that my son doesn't tellher it was a special delivery from Santa.

While I'm truly happy for everyone who is excited and planning for a joyous season, I'm officially giving up the holiday for good. My grandaughter turned 3 the end of september and my son refused to let his fiance invite me. I haven't ever shared her birthday with her. This will be her fifth Christmas and I've yet to share one of those either. Since they are my only family nearby, time to face that for me it is just another day of the year.




MistressDarkArt -> RE: The December RC (12/9/2013 5:27:23 PM)

Hugs to LL. I'm sorry your son is acting this way. I remember a few blue xmases and they suck. Don't waste the day. Do something that brings comfort and contentment, even if it's just a bubble bath and cup of hot chocolate or your favorite tea.




NiceButMeanGirl -> RE: The December RC (12/9/2013 6:18:53 PM)

I'm sorry, LL, that it's turning out that way for you. So sorry. Sometimes relatives suck.

I just got some good news today!! I retired early from nursing but, recently, I've been applying for work again. A former employer of mine called me up today and, at first, I didn't recognize his voice because it had been so many years. He asked me if I was still interested in working for him and I said "YES!!!" So he will be getting back to me with a time for me to come in and train on the the new machines. It will be retail job, which I've done before, and I'm really excited about it!!

NBMG




LadyPact -> RE: The December RC (12/9/2013 6:44:38 PM)

Hugs to you, LL. I know what it's like to miss the grands.
