Happy Holidays!

This year has been the least I have blogged. But I don't want to give up writing here so I hope those of you that read will keep hanging on with me. And I hope that I will be able to write more this next year.

We have had an incredibly busy but good year. I am very thankful for all we have in our lives...especially each other. Master and I recently were saying we might not like where we live and need a bigger home but we are blessed we have a roof over our head with so many out there struggling to make mortgage payments. We have a business that keeps growing. It pays our bills and allows us to do some fun things. It allows us to be together all the time. I remember when I was nervous 2 years ago that we might have problems adjusting to being around each other all the time but it was quite the opposite. We enjoy all the time we have together...whether during work or play it is all time we have together we count as one of our blessings.

Some simple pleasures of right now...

A white Christmas - snow on the ground and more coming our way
Christmas carols playing
Cookies and candies on the table
the tree all decorated even added an Obama ornament to it today
Hot apple cider in a cute Christmas mug

And tonight we will have dinner and then do one my favorite traditions with Master...go look at Christmas lights.

I know these are just a few things but recognize that I have many things to be counting as blessings in my life.

I wish all of you Happy Holidays!

Holidailies

Maybe some of you noticed but I am not participating in Holidailies this year. One reason being that I know this month is going to be busy especially with us being gone last week. So I just didn't feel I could commit to it as I am going to be playing catch up the rest of the month.

But I wanted to pass the link on to read some posts from others participating...vanilla and a few kinky mixed in there. Adult entries are marked.

Here is my posts for years past...

The Incredible Escape

We are out of town for the week but I wanted to do a quick update of our overnight escape we went on last week.

It was fabulous! We had such a great time.

After we loaded the car to get started on our journey, Master had me take off my skirt. Master has a tight fetish where he likes pantyhose and tights. He likes things that are shiny and cling to the body. So I rode all the way to our destination with a sweater and then just tights. Oh and a collar and leash that he periodically would tug on. Our drive there was beautiful. When we got to the town we were staying Master showed me some of the sights before we headed to our hotel room. Then we had a picnic on the bed and the rest of the night was lots of fun....with sex and playing.

Master was in a sadistic mood where he just wanted tears. So he kept doing these surprise slaps on me that were the kind that would knock me off my feet. He had me standing with my wrists cuffed behind my back. And he was punching me and just hurting me in general and then all of sudden would bring his hand back slap these hard slaps that would send me tumbling back into the wall. It was quite delicious.

One round of playing for the night was rope bondage. I love the hemp rope that some friends gave us. So I was in heaven. It isn't Master's favorite thing so I was happy he indulged me.

So even just for one night it was quite a wonderful time. We needed that time to just escape and unplug from the business/work.

Our drive back was even more incredible. I truly give thanks to the Universe for creating such beauty. Colorado just doesn't do ugly. Every place we got is beautiful and just often takes my breath away with the greatness of the mountains and beauty.

We actually hope to do one more overnighter before the end of the year. We have still some points to use from hotel rewards. So I am crossing my fingers we find the time as I am sure it will be just as incredible.
