Notice the little black furry butt. Reyka loves sitting at the top of the porch steps holding court with the wild critters.

A Good Yoga Morning
I woke to rain but the perfect temperature lured me to the porch for yoga. Mona kept me company while the pup watched from the window. My yoga time went a little longer than normal because it felt so good.

Reyka and Bloodymary
Reyka informed us she enjoys a spicy Bloodymary.
Flyboy gave her a shot glass full of the beverage; spice, hot sauce, horseradish and booze included.
She insisted washing the shot glass herself.

Quiet Morning
Sometimes you need to have a few moments of peace and tranquility. I often find such moments of calm on my porch in the morning.
I enjoy the twittering birds and the lush greens of summer.
The best part is sharing this time with my sweet Flyboy. We may have a bit of quiet conversation or simply enjoy the refreshing time.

#RainyMorning
Enjoying my coffe on the porch with my girl.
It's been several months since we brought her home and she's still learning about the world. Reyka is facinated with the morning birds and neighborhood traffic. The porch is a favorite place to be.
"Do you hear that, Mom? What is it?"

My Baby is 16
My youngest was born with a hole in his heart, a bowel obstruction and one kidney. He suffered a seizure at a year old that left him paralyzed for a few days. He didn't speak at all.
Lucky for us a wonderful teacher noticed his intelligence and recommended he go into regular kindergarten. He worked with a speech therapist several days a week until 5th grade.
Little Man thrived in school. Not only has he become athletic (plays football & baseball) he's been #1 academically in his class for Freshman and Sophomore years.

Today is his 16th birthday.
I look at him and am amazed with how far he's come. Flyboy and I are super proud of him and thankful for all those who have helped our son over the years grow into the wonderful young man he's becoming.

New Yoga Partner
My new girl hasn't figured out her manners while I do yoga outside on the deck.
She thinks its play time.
Once she found a bone to chew on and claimed a corner of the mat, i managed to complete my routine.
My Word of Intention for the day is BEAUTIFUL. I will look for the beauty of the day and try to share it with others.
What is your intention for the day?
Flyboy says his is to get put in the boat and to get moving do we can go.

#FetishFriday - Writing Handcuffs & Silk
Handcuffs & Silk started out as a sweet romance. A simple one night stand
between a lady cop and a lawyer sounded easy but somewhere along the line the characters
took over the story and sexed it up.
Bring out the leather and restraints...I was off to write about something
I had no idea about.
So what did I do?
What any good author does... RESEARCH. Here's where hubby has that Cheshire Cat
grin. No, really... I poured over books (fiction & non-fiction), interviewing various Doms and subs then let my imagination go.
I found the best help on the subject (other than personal interviews) turned out to be the online site Seekers. This site states, "D/s is a lifestyle choice, Domination and submission, where people live their lives opting by nature to be either Dominant or submissive. In a relationship the one complements the other and is based on the gift of submission, and absolute trust."
I must say this sight was not only helpful with my work, but I thought the owners handled the subject in a fundamental and kindly manner.
Writing Handcuffs & Silk became a whole new experience for me and opened a door I always thought was best kept closed. Not only am I becoming a better writer because of my research but I've also developed a sincere respect for my new friends who delve into this world. Hubby and I won't be visiting a dungeon any time soon, but he certainly enjoys being my "research assistant."
Never be afraid to ask questions,
the answers may amaze you.
