There's teen drama interrupting my bubble world

Wow, it's been a while. Holy hell, they've changed the whole blogger area here. Excuse me while I re-adjust...I don't dig change you know!

A bit of business first. Relay For Life in my community is only weeks away. Coming right up on June 15th and I'm excited to report that I DID take on the Leadership role with a co-chair. I'm still the bitch in charge though...what?! I absolutely LOVE my volunteer position and am learning soooo many new things. Too many ooooo's? Get over it. I'm in a mood tonight, and I'll tell you why...

Though I have had concerns about it for a couple of months now, it has come to my attention via my ex-husband *who was finally able to drag the info out of our first born* that my son, who incidentally, is only 14 years old (turning 15 in Oct) has absolutely, positively had SEX with his girlfriend! Now, I don't know about all you fiends, but i was 16 my first time. Even that wasn't quite old enough and I am currently mourning the loss of my son's age of innocence. I'm so sad. I had to go over the the girlfriend's house and tell her mother tonight, which quite frankly, I could have done without, but what can you do? My ex-hus, his wife and I are taking a united front on this subject. We all feel that this happened on someone else's watch. This is not a blame-game situation. The fact is, they are not left alone in private situations at my house, nor his father's. They are, however, permitted to pass time alone in his girlfriend's bedroom. Her mother thought that since her daughter said they weren't being intimate, she could trust in that...even though she had a child at the age of 14. Wow...I mean WOW. I'm feeling all sorts of things right now.

You all know I'm down for sex...hell! I love sex, but I'm an adult. I'm entitled to do as I please in that regard and I know to protect myself. My son called me tonight. His girlfriend nearly broke up with him because I was over there accusing her of things to her mother and he was pissed...WHAT? WHAT? He said to me "Mom, from now on, I'd like you to stay out of my personal business. She almost broke up with me." I let him know under NO uncertain terms that it was definitely MY BUSINESS. Simply doing my job is all. I waited til we hung up to laugh. Well, honestly, it was more of a crazy laugh while tears came out of my eyes. I called Sunshine...she said, "well, I'm glad to hear you laughing at least"!

I know I haven't been here in quite some time but wow, my mind is just moving right along here...where's my fucking manual?

A Year in Review, and HNT...The Last Hoorah

This year has been...BAR NONE...the fastest of my life. I attribute this to low personal drama and increased activity in my day-to-day.

* I've gotten a handle on the Celiac Disease concerns and am much more comfortable with my food boundaries, have adapted my own kitchen, and feel at ease going out socially. I feel healthy and am more aware of what I put in my mouth. ;)

* I've stopped living in denial and accept the fact that I am, in fact, in a relationship with my dirty blond (old news to some). He is loving, kind, and is a "doer". He is always willing to lend a hand and finds clever solutions to life's little problems. He is an enhancement rather than a hindrance to my life, therefore I'm keeping him. Yeah, I said it...what?!

* With the assistance of my ex husband, his wife, and my first born, we have done a fantastic job of helping my sweet bubba (my baby boy) to a happier day-to-day life as a hyper (yet not conclusively diagnosed ADHD) and intelligent little boy.

* I've been emotionally available when my friends are in need of my attetion. Things come up from time to time, and it sure helps when life is flowing along well with me. I can really listen then.

* I still have a low tolerance for stupid people. Nothing has changed. As always, I keep an open mind to everyone I encounter.

* Though my computer time has drastically decreased, I still have great affection for some special people I've met in the past 3-plus years writing this blog and participating in HNT.

* I'm an impatient little princess sometimes! Just sayin.

All in all, it has been a really good year. I took the boys away to visit Sunshine and her son for Christmas. It was nice to spend time with my mother's family and have the boys over the holidays for a few consecutive days. I'm glad to be home, yet sad to be back to work so soon. I need a vacation from my little vacation...and New Year's Eve is yet to come...

One of my burn list goals is to set a little time aside to blog. I like the interaction and it seems like once I get out of a habit, I find it difficult to work back in. I'm excited about Os's little project *wait for it if I've posted too early* and hope to participate by posting comments over the next couple of nights. I sincerely hope that you've all had wonderful holidays and quality time with those you love. Best wishes

Little checked dress shirt HNT

Well hello there!

I have been soooo out of the loop, I don't even know who's doing what *or who for that matter hehe* but I took a few pictures and decided to drop by. My evenings have been quite full of social activity either in person, or on the telephone. I've been finding things a bit hectic, yet happy.

How the hell did it become American Thanksgiving already?

I've had this window open since about nine this evening and am just now typing the text. I'm a tired lady. We had our first major snowfall of the season. The roads were a mess, but we made it home safe and sound. All in all, not a bad day.

I've got several drafts in my post list that I'm really hoping to back to very soon. I hope everyone is feeling good as the festive season approaches.

loves autumn

Lest We Forget

Today is Remembrance Day. In the 11th month, on the 11th day, in the 11th hour we take time to remember all that our soldiers have done for us as a Country. It is an important day that gets less recognition as time passes. Old veterans die, and the significance of the day seems somewhat lost to our youth, unless we teach them and show them that it is still important.

My grandfather, and his brother went overseas to fight for our way of life in World War II. My father spent much of my young life away from home serving in the military. My ex-husband and many of my friends and acquaintances over the years have served in the Canadian Forces. I do respect what they do for me, for my family, and for our Nation. I will remember.

Make your kitty happy today hnt





So, here I am after over two months of silence...I don't think I've ever been this quiet in my life!

The lovely Ms. Kayla (my rep from Edenfantasys) sent me a free review item in the summer. She has been extremely patient while waiting for me to get it finished, and I want to say a big *thank you! you rock!* to her for that. It has been a hectic couple of months for me and mine. Various activities have left me with much less spare time. My computer completely crapped out in August, and while I didn't lose everything, a great deal of my hard efforts compiling Relay contacts have been lost. I've been generally pissed off with technology and haven't been making a great effort to reconnect since getting my refurbished system up and running. Some blogger and real life friends have called/emailed to inquire about my lack of posts. Alright, I get the hint...it's time that Autumn speaks again.

I've chosen a rabbit vibrator for review. It's sleek and pretty and it's called the white heat double delights (image at the top of this post). As you know, I've got loves for things that help bring on a good orgasm. While I don't own a wide variety of sex toys, I definitely know what makes me feel good. I must admit that when I opened the box I was a bit apprehensive, but some things really do come in small packages...yay! The first thing I noticed were the spiral ridges running the entire length of the vibrator. I got myself all situated on my bed, coated the toy with maximus water based lube from my last review. This waterproof, double bullet clit stimulator *plus more* is not particularly noisy...just a low hum really. I like the contour of the shaft. The flexible section before you reach the bullet on the shaft allows you to move it around for your pleasure. I had a slight problem adjusting the cap so that I could turn it on and not unscrew it, but once I got that straightened out, I was good to go. I tried it first on my clit only, testing the speed and pressure. I slid the shaft into my pussy and pressed it so that the other bullet was resting on my clit. With a slight push up, I was able to hit that soft, spongy spot that sends me gushing. I have a tendency to judge sex toys not just based on if they make me cum, but how quickly and/or intensely it happens. So long as I am properly hydrated, I can orgasm many times. Such was the case with the white heat vibe. I would definitely give it a four star rating.

As I said, I enjoy the flexibility in the shaft. I explored with it a little...running the toy along my slit, down to my ass and back up again. The vibration level of this one really worked for me. I've used it several times with the same results.



In other news, my cousin Nessa turned 40 in September. We had a celebration for both of us at the peaceful place shortly after my birthday in July, but this time, she came here. Sunshine and I really wanted it to be special for Nessa as her husband is away for work often and wasn't around for her big 4-0. We wanted her to be surrounded by love and fun. We began with a delightful meal of bbq chicken, potatoes and veggies, followed by vast quantities of Como's, jello vodka shooters and tequila. A friend of mine who was also here baked a gluten free cake in a cock shaped pan. She decorated it with fondant icing, including some veins and cream filling. Mmm mmm good. DB was here as well. He offered to drive, but I didn't feel it was fair to make him sit around all evening while we painted nails, did hair and make-up, tried on clothes and giggled like mad and NOT even let him join the party fun! In hindsight, I'm happy I made the decision to drink with him. The aftermath was crazy fun! We went dancing, but before leaving we simply HAD to take some pictures. Look at Nessa...what a dirty, dirty girl she is grabbing those asscheeks! hehehe...we really did have fun. I got drunkity-drunk-drunk. I was quite proud of myself for managing the night in those sexy high heels.

Nobody can teach me who I am HNT


Ok, so July was a blur of activity. I had such wonderful adventures, it's difficult to express it all here. My visit with my brother the genius was AMAZING! We had wonderful conversation, and managed to see the CN Tower AND the Hockey Hall of Fame over and above just taking the bus, walking and subway travel around town. Those three days went by like a flash of lightening and I wish I'd had more time as grateful as I was for what I had. Sunshine and I really enjoyed our weekend get-away. Thought I would show her off for you all here.

On the Saturday night, there was a latin festival going on near my brother's place. Sunshine and I decided to walk up and check it out, however, we got there a little too late and missed all the music and dancing. We walked along, people watching as we went. Sunshine and I were walking in the direction of the festival while people were leaving. On our way, a group of women passed us and one turned, looked me up and down and said "ahhh preencess!"...highlight of the walk, I swear.

We spotted a group of ladies further up who were wearing these awesome cool feathery costumes. One of them had gorgeous white wings and I cursed the time wasted on a couple of extra rum drinks. Alas, we saw a stray dancer lady and decided to cross to the other side of the street and try to get pictures. There was a man carrying a great set of wings as well, surely part of the missed presentation. We ran for it to catch up and snap some pictures. Quite a scene of giggly girls.


For the actual day of my birthday, we did the sight seeing thing. I wore my tiara out all day *ahem...and also on the plane ride home* because it's just so much fun to be a princess! We had picked up a fabulous gluten free birthday cake the day before and I was sooo looking forward to having some before we left for home. I'm skipping those photos as the cake has stuff written on it that I do not wish to share here. Rest assured, it was a lovely cake. As you can see, I've posted a picture of my brother and I while we were out. Here's hoping he doesn't object to my posting this today. I'm assuming he will never find it honestly, since it's my private spot and all.



I feel like I had about a million more things to say here, however, I began the post last evening and am trying to finish up before DB arrives. We're going to a movie, then my friend Red is supposed to come by later also. Busy, busy! These pictures were taken near the Hockey Hall of Fame. There was an art exhibit of words and black and white images in that large corridor. They were all quite interesting, and there was a smattering of familiar names and faces. So cool! I'm going to make some blog rounds tomorrow evening after work as I will have a few hours all alone. Until then, please enjoy the clickies!

Birthdays, cool vacations and big bottles of lube to slick it up...HNT

I'm leaving on a jet plane early tomorrow morning and I cannot express in words how excited I am right now. I haven't packed a thing...I mean NOTHING, though I have an idea what I would like to take. My summer wardrobe is sorely lacking. I am waiting for Sunshine to arrive, then I'm dragging her out for a little while to help me find some shorts and flat shoes (I can't wear my lovely red or black heels only). She doesn't know this yet, so don't go spoiling the surprise...mmmm kay? She told me that my only job for the month of July is to be a princess. My gosh, I'm so freakin spoiled! Sunshine contacted members of my family who either sent her money to go towards my flight, or sent me a little pocket money for the weekend. DB got me a totally bomb Cuisinart bbq for my balcony. :)

Ewww...there's something sticky on my keyboard. Why I felt the need to type it, I'm not sure, but YAYAYAYAYAY!!!! I'm going to see my brother the genius tomorrow! Ummmm can you tell I'm very happy? Yeah, I'm silly...what?




So, the fine folks at Edenfantasys were kind enough to send me a little treat to review for you all. I have had almost a month to post said review. The product arrived earlier than expected, and of course, my life was insane with Relay planning. Now that it's over and I've spent some time with my children and friends, this review is due. I owe it to you all, and to myself to spill my guts up in here more often!

*I've gone out shopping, packed my things and had drinks with Sunshine and now it's absolutely time to do dis thang*

I love water based lubes and have tried many different brands over the years. Now, I'm naturally quite moist, however, I do love the extra slip-n-slide that a good lubricant can offer. The Maximus water-based sensual lubricant *linked directly above, but click here and over here as well please* is a great product with sex toys. It keeps everything very slick and flowing until all that natural moisture works it's way out.

I've had several opportunities to test out my review product and here is my assessment:

This 8.45 FL. OZ bottle packs a lot of punch! Just think of all the sexy time sessions you could have with just this one bottle of lube. I mean for real! It comes with a pump dispenser for quick access in any sexy adult's bedroom fun. Of course, that's not to say you couldn't use it in the hallway, kitchen, livingroom or patio of you so desire. It's entirely in your hands. This product does not leave a sticky film on your hands, however, I do find that once the moisture is gone...it's really gone. ;)

It's fabulous for play with sex toys. I coated my vibe with it, added some to my body for good measure and went to town. I did not have to re-apply, which is a plus in my book. The wet feel held until I was done for that night and I have certainly used it likewise since then. Now, while the same could be said for the slickness with my partner, it does not have a very pleasant flavour...so do eat it.

Check out all the amazing products on the Edenfantasys website and happy shopping!



Now, I know it's easy to get distracted with all the sexyness in the photo below, however, if you are going to post a comment please help a chick out and say something about the review if you would? Thank you so much my loverlies.

DB got a preview of my dress, only the pink version. I wore this black one to work the other day with a little half shirt over my shoulders, and all I kept thinking back to him saying "No! Leave the dress on!" well you don't have to tell me twice. Ahhh pre-birthday sex is so much fun.

It's very late. I can sleep for about three and a half hours, then have to get ready to go to the airport. I didn't get to explore your posts but would very much like to when I get back. I'll be forty on Sunday. Still smiling!
