Out With The Old

There have been moments of great wonderfulness in this year.

I kinda wish I weren't ending it in the Slough of Despond but that's life, right?

So I wish you all the very best in 2014.

And in case you were wondering…

(Found on Post Secret, so I can't credit the creator -- but it was too good to pass up!)

Happy New Year, all.

Merry Christmas!

I've had a pretty grim week -- with not much to celebrate in sight…

But I'm Ready Now!!

I wish you all tons of love and laughter and whatever makes you smile.

For me, at the moment, that's giggling children and some rockin' holiday banjo. :-)

Walk in joy...

"The Poem of The Air..."

"This is the poem of the air,

      Slowly in silent syllables recorded;..."

"Snowflakes" - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I love snow.

I loathe driving in it and I wish it came with a shovel-free option...

but other than that, I truly love snow.

Snow is happiness.

It's pink cheeks, damp mittens, stomping feet, and hot cocoa.

Snow is transformative.

Loud becomes hushed, rough becomes smooth, grey day becomes a sparkling wonderland and the night, a haven of gently glowing possibility.

Snow is magic.

Even when my heart has forgotten, snow whispers to my soul, "I'm still here…"

And at least for a while, I believe.

Fitspo, D/s style

I've been kneeling here for quite a while now -- but it's time to get up.

As always, my courteous dom offers to assist my stiff self in rising to my feet.

But my hands are bound…

Undaunted, he simply vises a breast in each hand and begins hauling upward…

Perhaps a gym membership might not go amiss after all…

Next...!

I was poking around, looking at some of the holiday gift suggestions that kaya wrote about.

These extreme nipple weights caught my eye...

(these)

I'm pretty sure BG would really like them…

But I doubt I'll be buying...

because my knees hurt just looking at these suckers.

(*whack! whack!*)

Women of a certain age and endowment already give gravity a gracious plenty to work with, thank you very much. No need to fuel the fire.

Let's look at that paddle thingy, instead...

Differing Opinions

I sent this to BG as one of this week's photos:

It came in last in the ratings.

Now, the other two were of wax play and predicament bondage -- which also managed to include nipple clamps and an up-close and personal crotch shot of the woman receiving anal (not to mention some very hot seamed stockings,) -- and we haven't seen each other for longer than usual, so I know he's not feeling particularly "subtle" right now.

So I guess I shouldn't be surprised that this rather atmospheric shot wasn't his top pick.

But I don't think I can agree that it's the least compelling of the bunch, either.

Not when you look closely.

Because what I see here is that moment when he's pulled you in while leaning down to growl a command.

When he's close enough that your skin is tingling and your tummy fluttering…

When every fiber of your being is melting in response to his dominance…

When your breath quickens and your heart stops -- and your libido just plain rolls over and splays shamelessly on it's back like a puppy needing a tummy rub.

I think that moment is about as hot as they come -- even without seamed stockings.

(maybe I'm just seeing it from the wrong side of the slash?)

I did NOT see this one coming...

Thank you, Rori and thank you nilla, my nominator.

And to those of you who dropped in looking for sex, only to find nothing but cookies...

Sorry!

You're gonna have to scroll. :-)

Or better yet, go visit Between My Sheets for the complete list of 2013 winners.

Some of my favorites are listed there! 

An Open Letter to Sint Nikolaas

Dearest Sinterklaas,

We had a lovely cookie exchange to celebrate your day.

Lots of participation and oodles of truly impressive recipes.

Unhappily, however, there were no stroopwafels.

I reeeally like stroopwafels...

It feels like ages since I've had any...

(Did I mention I've been veery good this year?)

Your casually whistling friend,

Jz

And as for the rest of you...

It was another thoroughly enjoyable Extravaganza day.

Thank you all So Much for getting together to play along.

Sharing the fun with you is what makes it all worthwhile.   :-D

Same time next year?  :-)
