A true mixed bag

I usually have something rolling around in my head that I want to write about. Stuff that may only be interesting to me, but I guess that’s what blogging’s all about. Right now my head is too full. Today’s post is a true mixed bag. Don’t expect complete clarity.

This blog is my outlet to the world. I’m not going to work and talking with co-workers. I’m not going to lunch with friends. I’m not standing around after church visiting. We aren’t even having the Sunday family dinners we’ve had since before Nick and I got married. Without this blog I’m pretty isolated.

I want to talk about Covid and what it’s done to the country. I want to talk about the vaccine (Nick has an appointment for one. Unfortunately, he married a child bride, so I don’t.) I want to talk about domestic terrorism, the dangers of FOX news and the like, the inauguration, how family relations can be repaired after the past four years and in the years to come. And even though these are topics I really need to talk about at times, I stay away from them here for the most part.

 

I also want to discuss spanking in all it’s forms. I like to delve into the needs and desires of it all. When did you first realize that this is part of you. I want to know why most of us took years to bring it up to our significant other. I want to know how you finally did bring it up. What was the reaction? What was the results? Are you glad you finally came out of the closet?

 

Although we don’t indulge like we used to, spanking is still a burning interest in my mind. It takes two forms. First are my stories and books – I listen to all that is going on at The Landing and I find great joy there. But stepping back into real life I’ll never stop wondering about who, when, why, where and how. I love hearing from anyone and everyone on the topic. It’s especially fun to talk to people just before or just after they have come out to the one they love. 

 

I sure as hell have no magic answers for their questions – but I’m good at listening to their question and often I know which ones to ask to help them think. And, yes, yes, as some have pointed out – I may come up with an opinion or two that, with minimal arm twisting, I’d be willing to share. LOL!

 

As for today, I’m praying for a peaceful transfer of power just as we’ve had for the past two hundred twenty-four years, since John Adams took over from Washington. The founding fathers began I good little experiment into democracy. I hope we don’t blow it now.
