Mick and Lynda's Place: Starting Over

The note about one of my favorite bloggers was wrong.  He was just changing his site.  Below is the new link to his blog. 

Enjoy!


Mick and Lynda's Place: Starting Over

Binder full of women

So I've just been reading reviews on Amazon.com about binders.  The reviews weren't what I expected but if you don't like what Mitt Romney said the other night about women, you'll very much enjoy them.  I sure am and have shared the link with R, who will also enjoy it.  The women who have left reviews are funny, witty and have the best sense of humor.  I hope one of the National news agency picks up on it and Amazon lets it ride (oh, and Avery binders). 

Now every time I look at a binder I'll never see it the same.

Life's is intruding

Life has not been cooperating with us.  We haven't had time to get in a good spanking in quiet a while.  I'm getting rather frustrated with that fact.  I know that the things we've had to do have been important and needed to be done.  The people we've helped (family members) have needed our help and we were happy to help them.  But I want some alone time with R, not just an hour.  I'm hoping this weekend we'll be able to get that time.

Mean while, I got my biopsy results back.  Everything is fine.  Doctor said nothing to worry about, we'll do a recheck in six months.  I hope in six months I'm not going through the same thing.  If so, it might be time to talk about a serious surgery.

On a sad note, I see another one of my favorite bloggers has closed up shop for a while (at least I hope it is only for a while).  Husbandly Touch is down for now but I hear it won't be forever.  Please know that those of us who read your blog will miss you while your gone and hope you come back soon. 

Start of a big week

I've been ready for this week to get here and dreading it also.  I'm having surgery Friday.  I'm not looking forward to it but want to get it over with as soon as possible.  R suggested putting it off for a while and I looked at him like he was crazy.  It not like this is something I want to do but I don't want to put it off any longer.  I want it over with, I want to know that I don't have cancer.  I want to know that I'm not going to have to have a hysterectomy.  The parts may not work for us to have kids - yeah we did all the fertility stuff.  The expensive drugs and procedures.   Nothing worked.  The doctor's said we were incompatible.  How's that for an explanation?  We just think they couldn't figure out why they couldn't get us pregnant (stupid doctor's).  I know that one of the many side effects of the drugs I was taking is the increased risk of cervical cancer, so keeping fingers crossed that whatever it is the the doctor found is not cancerous.

Oh, yeah and my birthday is this week.  R keeps asking me what I want.  I just want the surgery to go okay and everything to be fine.  I have everything I need when he is with me.  Yeah, there are many things I want but right now I just need him by my side.

Wish me luck and I'll try to give an update after the surgery Friday.

 

Slow July and they said it wouldn't hurt

July has not been a good month for us.  We were both tired after vacation.  R has been working a lot so we haven't been able to spend much time together.  What little we have spent together has been great but not a lot of spanking going on.  So if you want to stop reading now I'll understand.

I had to go to the doctor earlier in the month because they had found something they wanted to look further into.  They told me that it wouldn't hurt - they lied.  R was unable to go with me so (lucky for me) my Mom doesn't live far so she went with me.  If you ever have to go in for a histogram, make them give you a Valium prescription before your appointment.  A little cramping my ass.  Hurt like a bitch.  And now I have to have surgery.  R has cleared his calendar so he will be able to be with me that day.  But I have another month to wait before they can do it.  Now I just get to think about it.  At least I will be put out for that procedure.  Won't remember a thing.  I like that idea.  Then we'll just have to wait for the biopsy to make sure it is not cancer.  Cervical cancer doesn't run in my family so keeping my fingers crossed.  Of course, I am the oldest female (at 45) in the last 4 generations to not have a hysterectomy by the age of 40. So this is really new territory in my family health history.  I don't want to have a hysterectomy.  We may not have been able to have children but that doesn't mean I want anything removed that isn't absolutely life threatening.

In the mean time I've managed to get bronchitis.  I've been sleeping in the recliner, if you can call coughing all night long sleeping and the other stupid doctor would give me any cough medicine with codeine so I could get some sleep.   Sometimes I really hate doctor's. 

So I'm hoping August will be a much better month (will until the surgery part).  Maybe I can get them to do some free liposuction while they are in there.  :)  Hope your July has been wonderful.

Colorado Vacation

We just got back from vacation in Colorado.  While some of the state is on fire, a lot of it isn't and we were near the fire area (close enough to see smoke at times) but far enough away to never be in danger.  We talked a lot about the fires raging around us and made sure we only unpacked as much as we needed so if we had to make a fast move we could do so.  It did make traveling around the state challenging in you had to find roads that where open.

We have friends that live in Colorado Springs and while we were not planning to visit them this trip we still haven't been able to reach them to be sure they are okay.  Hoping they are fine and that if their home was in the fire area that they got out and are safe. 

Since this was a family vacation (we were vacationing with R's family) we weren't able to have any spankings while we were gone and none since we've been home.  R got bite by a spider or an insect of some kind so I drove most of the way home from Colorado and Monday morning we were in the ER at 8 am.  So our vacation didn't end on a happy note.  The swelling is starting to go down in R's face so his cheeks don't look like a chipmunks stuffed full any more but there is still some swelling.  His temperament is improving also.  :) 

I hope everyone has a happy 4th of July.  Be safe and enjoy the fireworks if they are allowed in your area.  If you're not here in the states hope you enjoy the day also.

Fighting with your man

So we argued last night.  R has been smoking again for almost a year and has promised several times to quit.  He just keeps coming up with excuses as to why he hasn't.  This wouldn't be so bad be he is sneaking out of the house, so I won't know he is still smoking.  Like I can't smell it on him.  He stinks.  His sperm tastes like nicotine and I won't swallow it.  Nasty Nasty Nasty

So last night I caught him sneaking back into the house.  I asked him,"Whatcha' doing?"  R says, "You know what I was doing."  So I asked him, "Why are you sneaking around about it?"  He tells me, "I don't want you to be mad about it."  Well, I am mad about it but more disappointed and that's what I tell him.  So he comes back with, "Well, I'm disappointed with you.  Every time you eat ice cream."  That was a big slap in the face.  I just walked off from him.  I left the room.  I did not want to talk to him any more.

Yes, I am over weight.  I've asked for his help in my weight lose.  I've even revealed to him how much I weight (and that was a big deal).  For him to throw that in my face was very hurtful.  But he has not helped me.  He has come to me and asked me to make brownies repeatedly.  He has asked me to buy M&M's, trail mix.  Bake cakes, cookies.  But not a word about why don't we exercise or go work out.  He knows I need that push when I get home from work.  So now I will make sure I am not naked in his presence again. He'll be able to get to the parts he wants to get to if he wants to get to them but I will not be asking him for sex.  If he is so unhappy with the way I look then I don't want him to have to look at me. 

R followed me to continue our conversation as he said it wasn't over.  He then proceed to inform me that I degraded him in front of his family with loud comments I made about his smoking.  I don't remember saying anything to his family.  I might have said I'm not happy that he is still smoking but that is all.  His excuse right now for not stopping is that we are going on vacation and that is stressful.  I told him I didn't realize going on vacation with me was stressful.  I may suggest this afternoon that he go without me so he doesn't have the stress of me being there to worry about while he is on vacation.  He is the one that wanted to go on vacation with his family and I agreed because he wanted to go so much.  I was looking forward to it but not now.  I don't want to be stuck in a car with him for a 9 hour drive one way and then in a small remote cabin for 5 days. 

I'm suppose to get off work at noon today but I may just work until my appointment at 2:30 so I don't have
to deal with him. 

I didn't tell him I loved him when I went to bed last night.  That was the first time in 25 years.  Needless to say, I did not sleep well.
