I still feel like I am playing catch up after the two weeks of kiddo spring break and in laws, and then…life. The birthday surprise was amazing and it was so nice to have them here. April was a much slower month for me for books, because I was 1. distracted/sad by personal things 2. very busy. I read 10 books and it took me ages to get through them, compared to my normal reading times. This month was all audiobooks.

And what of (“mainstream”) sexuality?
I’m alive, I promise! Just busy and distracted. In good and not-so-good ways, but mostly life is chugging along and I am trying to stay busy.
I wrote recently – well, sort of recently? that spanking is my sexuality, but also so much more. But sexuality is complex. It’s not binary, as many think. So spanking is the core of my sexuality, yes, but there’s more to it. A little more than a year ago, I updated my Fetlife profile from heterosexual (which I never really was, if I’m honest with myself) to demisexual. What does that mean? Someone who identifies as demisexual typically only feels sexual attraction to someone after developing a strong emotional bond with them. This has always been true for me but I didn’t realize it was unusual or atypical. I can definitely find physical characteristics appealing, but I am not typically attracted to people physically, first.

I am here! My last post was kind of a lot, so I wanted to give it some space, and also, last week was very busy for me! My kiddo was on spring break so there was a bit less school and childcare than usual. Monday I had a work event so I had to be in the city overnight – it was a nice break away by myself, though! Spend time with family later in the week, met a new (but known-online) spanko friend on Friday, which lead into a busy weekend which lead into this week. My husband’s 40th birthday week with the most epic surprise I’ve ever pulled off. I flew his parents in from Germany without him knowing and we picked them up Tuesday. Birthday dinner Wednesday night, of course, all amidst work and parenting. They’re truly lovely though, so I am pleased to have them here.
It has been decidedly NOT very kinky though. I did get him – in addition to his parents – a Hanks Belt for uh…you know, keeping his jeans up! I went with The Everyday Belt in Oak – it’s really lovely and heavy and looks great on. We shall test it out this weekend at the Cheeky Spankos party. I also got him a bottle of Highland Park 12Y whisky because we tried it on our cruise and really enjoyed it. It’s been a really lovely week.
I know I have comments to reply to on my last post – I’ll get to it. This week has also been a bit heavy with my mom as well.
