I have been a wife and mother for over twenty years. Now I am becoming my husband's lover, too.
We owe it all to my fellow bloggers who gave me the courage to come out to my husband as a spanko.
I do feel like this is a New Beginning for us.

When it rains, it… well you know

Just a little medical update. I’ve found out that every doctor visit ends up in, “we should know at your next visit.” They sent the tumor off for genetic testing to find out if it’s a particular aggressive strain, which would mean chemo. They don’t think I’ll need chemo, but I’ll know at my next visit on the 23rd. Meanwhile, I had a CT scan to find out how much radiation I’ll need. It could be as few as five treatments up to fifteen. That’s still only have of what it used to be. They have to send the CT to another hospital for other to check and they have to get approval from my insurance and they will call me when they know and then I’ll start treatments.

I guess all my problems was the rain, but suddenly it began to pour. Nick has been diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer. It’s not leukemia and according to the doctor, we’re seeing the same doctor, it’s very treatable and with the treatment they are suggesting about 90% of people go into remission. It may not ever go away completely but they can usually keep it beaten back. He will be having chemo after they do a PET scan. The doctor says he won’t lose his hair – he has very little, but I really like his beard, so that’s good.

I think it sweet when couples do things together, but this borders on the ridiculous!  We’re hanging in there. Several of you have sent positive thoughts and prayers and I thank you. I hope you’ll add Nick to those prayers.

Saturday Spankings - Likes and dislikes

Welcome to Saturday Spankings! In today’s snippet from Secrets on the River, we’re picking up the day after last week’s post. Cassie and Jenny may have different tastes, but basically, they are the same.


Jenny walked over a little early, always eager to visit with her ‘mom’. She found Cassie sitting in the padded swing watching the river.

“Hey, Mom,” Jenny greeted her. “It’s unusual to find you alone these days. Do you want a little time to yourself?”

“Sit!” Cassie encouraged. “You know I love visiting with you any time.”

Jenny carefully took her seat. Cal hadn’t been wrong about the bruises or the continued soreness. Cassie noticed at once.

“What happened? Did you do something wrong or was Cal overreacting as usual?” she demanded.

“Neither,” Jenny told her, laughing. “We were just playing. But his new toy and I are not friends! He has a cane now.”

“Oh, Jenny, no!” Cassie was genuinely upset. “Those things are horrible. You need to make him get rid of that thing right now.”

“It’s okay, he promised to only use it for play, never for discipline,” Jenny tried to reassure her.

“For play!” Cassie was aghast. “But they’re vicious! Like a switch, but worse. That would be intolerable!”

“This from a woman who ‘loves the belt.’ That’s intolerable!” Jenny insisted.

“You have lost your mind,” Cassie told her. “The belt is sexy, sensual, it’s…”

“You could say the same thing for the cane if you think about it,” Jenny insisted.

Cassie stared at her for a long moment, before shaking her head. “Maybe I’m getting too old to understand you young people.”

“Fat chance of that, Mom. As long you’re willing to sit and discuss what implements our fellows should use to beat our asses, I think we’re all close to the same age.”

Cassie chuckled. “Maybe you’re right.



Everyone has secrets, but most don’t have major implications. When Jenny tries to keep her weekend activities from Cal, the repercussions of him finding out land only on her. But some secrets are bigger and more far reaching. You would think that as long as Cassie, Sue and Annie have known each other, surely they could have no real secrets from one another. But you’d be surprised. The full truth behind one secret may never be known, another could change the face of The Landing forever.

From steamy sex to both playful and painful spankings, the people on the river continue to live and love and marvel at all that are learning.

Saturday Spankings - Aftermath

Welcome to Saturday Spankings. Today’s snippet comes from Secrets on the River. Cal and Jenny have just had an amazing play session where Cal used ginger as well as his new cane. But he’s worried that the session was too intense and he talks it over with Jenny. She tries to reassure him.


“Honey, you can’t take it too far if I know you’ll stop when I ask you to. It doesn’t happen all the time, but when I get into that headspace, the pain… the pain… it’s what I want. The more the better. From what I’ve read, I’m a ‘pain slut.’ But I wouldn’t say that to very many people.”

Cal frowned. “I don’t much like the phrase. The word ‘slut’ should never be applied to my wife in any form.”

“Well, anyway, when we’re playing, I like the pain,” Jenny assured him. “It’s an incredible turn-on. And I promise, word of honor, I’ll tell you to stop if it ever gets to be too much.”

Cal started to comment but Jenny cut him off. “But I’m going to lay down some rules about that cane. It’s only for playing—got it? You cannot ever use it for discipline. Promise me.”

“You think the cane is a toy?” he asked in surprise.

“No, it’s horrible. But like I said, when I’m in that headspace I can take it. When you’re spanking for something you think I’ve really done wrong, a hand spanking nearly kills me. That awful paddle you made is more than bad enough. No cane!”

“You have my promise,” he agreed.

Cal ran his fingers gently over the lines left by the cane. “It looks good,” he told her. “I mean your ass looks fantastic, as usual, but the cane marks look fine. No broken skin. But I think they may bruise and I’m expecting you’ll be sore for a day or two.”

Jenny grinned at him. “Call it loving memories.”

“Do you feel like going out tonight? I’ve been wanting to take you to that new BBQ place on highway 264. I think tonight is the perfect night to go there,” Cal told her enthusiastically.

“Beats cooking!” Jenny told him. They dressed quickly and headed out.

Cal noted how slowly Jenny took her seat in the car, as if she were seeking a comfortable position, which was impossible, and momentarily reconsidered his evening plans. But this place had a great brisket and he knew how much Jenny would love it.

Several people called greetings to Cal as they entered the restaurant. They were being led to their table when Jenny stopped dead in her tracks and scowled, her eyes narrowing to slits. Cal saw and laughed out loud.

Taking her hand, he led her to their table. Before they took their seats, she pulled Cal to a stop and reached up to speak directly into his ear.

“You’re a fucking bastard!” she whispered.

“You’re going to love their brisket,” he said with a broad grin as Jenny winced and carefully sat on the hard wooden bench at the table.

“I’ll get you for this,” she hissed. “I promise.”


Everyone has secrets, but most don’t have major implications. When Jenny tries to keep her weekend activities from Cal, the repercussions of him finding out land only on her. But some secrets are bigger and more far reaching. You would think that as long as Cassie, Sue and Annie have known each other, surely they could have no real secrets from one another.

Saturday Spankings - Jenny's playtime

Welcome to Saturday Spankings! In today’s snippet from Secrets on the River, Cal has the afternoon off and he and Jenny are ready to do some intense playing. Jenny calls herself a pain slut, as long as they’re just playing, and she feels pretty much ready for anything. Cal has a cane he wants to try out and Jenny is hesitantly willing. Their playtime began with Cal cuffing Jenny to the bed and begins telling her of a story he read. Then he heads to the kitchen.


In the tiny cabin she could hear Cal in the kitchen. He seemed to be rummaging around in the refrigerator. Is he having a snack?  she questioned in her mind. A cabinet door opened and closed. Then he was back in the bedroom.

He said nothing as he released the handcuffs from the bed and unclipped them from one another. Without a word he removed her bra. Then he refastened the cuffs and hooked them to the bed again. Next, he secured a blindfold over her eyes.

His silence and her sudden loss of sight was having a strong effect on Jenny. “Please Cal, I’m really ready. Can’t you take me now?”

He used his damn sexy, dominant voice when he told her, “No. You’re supposed to be thinking about your caning. And trust me, you’ll be more ready by the time I’m finished with the cane.”

Jenny felt herself being flipped over to lie on her stomach. She clenched her ass anticipating a firm swat, but it didn’t come. Instead, Cal gently traced his finger over each of her cheeks before he slowly pulled off her thong. 

“Don’t tighten your butt like that, Jenny. It can lead to bruising.”

He left then, going back into the kitchen. Jenny pressed down into the bed. She let her mind drift into ‘play experiencing’ the fear of letting go and not knowing what was going to happen. Suddenly she raised her head and sniffed. There was an odor that was sharp and unfamiliar. When he came back into the bedroom Jenny involuntarily tensed her body once again.

Cal gently patted her bottom. “None of that,” he repeated. “Now in the story, this was where the man went out and smoked a cigarette to give the young lady time to think about all her transgressions and accept what she had coming. I’ll just sit on the porch and drink a beer instead,” he told Jenny, “while you think.”

“Cal, how many are you planning to give me with that wicked-looking thing?” she asked.

“Well, I’ve often heard about twelve of the best, when it comes to caning,” he answered.

“Twelve! Twelve! Are you crazy? I can’t ta…” she began in a panic.

“But I was thinking four, since you’re a cane virgin.”

Jenny quieted her breathing. Four? Hell, I can take four of anything,” and she silently nodded her head.

“Here’s one more thing that’s supposed to be a guarantee to make you wet and horny.”

Jenny felt Cal reach under her, taking the time to rub her hardened nub and then rake his fingers intimately through her folds. As he pulled his hand away, she began, “Don’t stop.” And then she gasped. “Shit! Cal what did you do?” She twisted from side to side. “It burns!” she shouted.

“Relax, darling. I used some ginger juice. It’s a little intense at first, but it’s almost magic at getting a woman wet and ready,” he answered her.

“You bastard! I was already wet and ready!” Jenny continued to squirm as the initial all-consuming burn lessened to an intensity she could tolerate. She quickly spread her legs trying to reduce the heat.

“I think I’ll go have my beer now,” he told her. “But let’s not lose all the effect,” he said as he quickly cuffed her ankles together.

“Sadistic bastard!” she called after him.


Everyone has secrets, but most don’t have major implications. When Jenny tries to keep her weekend activities from Cal, the repercussions of him finding out land only on her. But some secrets are bigger and more far reaching. You would think that as long as Cassie, Sue and Annie have known each other, surely they could have no real secrets from one another.

Saturday Spankings - Lily's full revenge

Welcome to Saturday Spankings! In today’s snippet from Secrets on the River, Cassie is still paying the penalty for pulling a practical joke on Lily. After talking with Lily, Tom told Cassie she needs to stay in the bedroom and contemplating ways of combating boredom other than picking on Lily.


“Lily said she’s not quite ready to sit and eat with you and Sue and I can’t blame her. So, she’s eating with the family tonight and you and Sue can eat in your rooms.” With that pronouncement, Tom turned and left the room.

Anger began to fester up in Cassie, but it didn’t get far. Amusement and grudging respect were taking its place. This had to be Lily’s doing, getting them back for the rat and doing a damn good job at it. In truth, Cassie knew she could walk right out of her room and eat anything she wanted from the kitchen and go sit by the river if she wished. Tom wouldn’t actually stop her. But she knew he would be disappointed in her. He’d feel she could dish out a good joke but wasn’t taking the payback with good graces.

With a sigh, Cassie took herself into the closet to sort out items that could be donated. She could at least do that while Sue was probably stuck in bed fuming even more than Cassie was.

The smell of the standing rib roast was driving her crazy. Lily didn’t fix it often and Cassie’s mouth watered. Lily always made her garlic mashed potatoes with it and there was fresh asparagus in the refrigerator. Lily was no doubt fixing her classic southern biscuits too. There was also a chocolate cake baked that very morning, waiting to be cut. Cassie sighed again and looked at her watch.

Finally, several days later it seemed to Cassie, Lily came in with a dinner tray. “Bless your heart, Lily! I’m dying of starvation. I’m so sorry about our little trick. Are we forgiven?”

“I ain’t decided yet,” Lily replied sharply. “I wish y’all could learn to behave yourselves, is all. Mr. Tom say you got to eat in here. I done cut it up for you. Holler if you want more.”

“Thank you, Lily! I really am sorry,” Cassie told her contritely.

Lily gave a non-committal grunt and left.

Hurrying to the little table, Cassie quickly lifted the plate cover only to stand gaping in disbelief. There on her best china, with one of her finest linen napkins folded alongside, was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, neatly cut into four triangles and an Oreo cookie for dessert.

“Lily, nooo…” Cassie wailed. “Tom, please…” she cried going to the door of the bedroom.

“You hush that yellin’ and eat what’s set before you! Hear me?” Lily called to her.

But some secrets are bigger and more far reaching. You would think that as long as Cassie, Sue and Annie have known each other, surely they could have no real secrets from one another.

Saturday Spankings - Relieving boredom

Update: Surgeon was happy. He took out the growth and there was nothing in the lymph nodes. He said to consider myself cancer free! I'll have to have radiation because it's considered preventive, but so far all the news is great. Thank you for the prayers. 


Welcome to Saturday Spankings! In today’s snippet from Secrets on the River, Cassie and Sue are bored to tears as they heal from their broken bones. Since neither woman handles boredom well, they’ve been plotting pranks to play on Lily, something their husbands have told them not to do.


Sue’s timing was perfect. Just as Lily took a step toward the kitchen to put her supplies away, the rat shot out toward her feet and all hell broke loose. Lily yelled, but rather than running from the house as she had before, she flung the cleaning supplies far and wide and leaped onto the kitchen island to give another screaming yell. 

Impressed with her agility, the ladies watched as Lily continued shouting and pointing down the hall.

“What is it? What is it?” Cassie cried, nearly bursting trying to hold in her laughter. Suddenly she and Sue were just as startled as Lily had been, when all the men burst through the garage door ready to protect their women from whatever evil had invaded.

“What’s going on? Who’s here?” they were yelling.

“What the hell?” Sue hissed to Cassie. “How are they back now?” Both women were caught somewhere between shock and hysterics.

Cassie could take no more. The laughter bubbled up in her and spilled out.  Sue, incapable of stopping herself, joined in. They laughed, tears streaming down their cheeks, until they ran out of breath and sat doubled over gasping for air.

The men around the island stood in puzzled silence, until Tom and Ryan came back into the room, rat in hand. Lily screamed and dove for Henry’s arms. 

“It’s okay, it’s okay,” Ryan assured her. “It’s fake, see?” He pulled the rubber rat from around the small, motorized toy car. 

Lily shuddered watching him. “What…? How…?” She was sputtering. Then they all turned to glare at Cassie and Sue who were still trying desperately to regain their composure.  

“We’re sorry, Lily,” Sue managed to gasp out.

“It was just a little joke,” Cassie added between bouts of giggles.

No one else said anything for a long moment. Lily started toward them, then stopped. “Don’t even want to talk to y’all,” she spat out. She turned to Henry before wheeling back around to Cassie and Sue.

Loudly she told them, “You don’t want me here no more, fire me! Don’t need to scare me to death!”

“Come on honey,” Henry said, putting his arm around Lily. “Let’s us go to our place for a while.”

“Lily, don’t go away mad,” Cassie pleaded. “It was just a joke. We were bored! We didn’t mean to upset you. Honest.”

Lily had almost made it to the door when she stopped suddenly. Turning back to the kitchen, she didn’t look at either Cassie or Sue. She went straight to a drawer and drew out the biggest, heaviest, meanest-looking wooden spoon in the kitchen. With a glance toward Tom and Steve, she slapped it down on the kitchen island, before leaving with Henry.


Everyone has secrets, but most don’t have major implications. When Jenny tries to keep her weekend activities from Cal, the repercussions of him finding out land only on her. But some secrets are bigger and more far reaching. You would think that as long as Cassie, Sue and Annie have known each other, surely they could have no real secrets from one another.
