Merry Christmas to All!

Merry Christmas everyone!  We had a nice quiet holiday at home and ate too much food.  Simon has to work tonight so Christmas is over for us already.  I hope you all enjoyed your holidays however you like to celebrate them.  I am already thinking about the New Year and my resolutions.  Simon and I both want to lose some weight and pay off some bills.  We want to get in better shape and feel better.  I want to see us get more spanking time in too.  We've let life get in the way of that too much this year.  I am grateful Simon and I are together and finally living in the same house.  I am grateful for our cute little house and our two cats, our families and our friends near and far.  We wish you all a wonderful holiday and a fabulous New Year!

Finally Friday

I am so glad it is Friday.  It has been a long long week at work. I think this week lasted 100 years.  I have been slacking on the blog.  In my defense it is all Simon's fault.  He broke his laptop and stole mine.  I have wrestled it away from him for the moment but I will make this quick before he steals it back. 

I have been cranky lately.  My doctor lowered my dose on my medication and it does not seem to have been a good idea.  Poor Simon is living with the Wicked Witch right now and really has no idea how to handle it.  I know when I say things they are coming out aggressively and I don't like that.  I am just constantly irritated about everything.  I see the doctor again next week but I went back to my previous dose yesterday.  I don't see the point in making everyone around me miserable for another week until my appointment.

It seems like we're busy all the time and I really just want some time at home together.  It feels like there are just so many distractions all the time and we never get to just be.  I am hoping next weekend we can relax a little.  We're staying home alone for Christmas since Simon has to work.  This will be our first together. Maybe we can have some nice spanking time together to celebrate!

Happy Spanksgiving!

I hope you have all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and Spanksgiving weekend.  This was the first year Simon and I were together for the holiday.  We were not able to go be with either of our families this year due to his work schedule.  Thursday he worked the evening shift, so I planned Thanksgiving dinner for Friday.  I spent most of the day cooking and did the traditional turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and all the trimmings.  I broke out the china and crystal and set the dining room table for just the two of us.  Everything came out perfect and I was so proud of myself!  I could not believe I had cooked all of that and everything had come out just the way my mom and my grandma had always made it.  Simon loved it.  He ate a ton of food and kept saying "See, I knew you could cook!"  I think it really meant a lot to him that I made it special by using the china just for us too.  We rarely eat at the dining table.

Saturday we celebrated Spanksgiving. We bought a new TV for our bedroom.  Yes I know many people feel a TV in the bedroom is bad for intimacy.  Those people do not have a box full of spanking videos in the closet.  Simon was feeling frisky and Jeanette was not.  When I did not respond immediately as he thought I should, he pouted.  Come on now, you can't just start groping and think a girl is ready to go at a moment's notice!  He thinks everything should be spur of the moment spontaneous and that getting up to throw the cat out of the room ruins the mood.  He thinks the cat nosing in on our good time ruins the mood too so you can't really win there.  Maybe he's read too many romance novels where everything goes perfectly,  I don't know.

So anyway.  The TV saved my Spanksgiving.  We talked about the fact that I need some sort of spanko stimulation to turn me on and decided to dig out a spanking video to watch on the new TV.  Yes the first movie on the new TV was spanking porn.  Go us!   Simon picked a video and decided we should copy what they do on the screen.  So over his lap I went for a hand spanking warmup.  We followed with the leather paddle and the wooden school paddle as they most closely matched the implements being used on screen.  I ended up nice and red and all warmed up (wink, wink). 

A looong while later we got up and showered and went out to dinner.  It was a nice end to a great day.  We don't get a lot of time to just be together.  We normally only have Sundays off together so a Saturday was a rare treat and we took full advantage of it. 

This year I am especially thankful for Simon and our life together.  I have had times in my life where I was lonely and times where I was miserable in myself and my relationships.  I am so grateful for what we have now.  Simon and I are truly blessed.  It was a long road getting here but I think that journey makes us appreciate where we arrived even more. 

Happy Holidays!

Fifty Shades of Awkward

Maybe it's just me but I don't like my "vanilla" friends talking about kink to me, it makes me uncomfortable.  Now let me start by saying that I have no idea if my friends actually are kinky, but they live in the vanilla part of my life and I want them to stay there.  

I have a friend I am going to call Betty.  She is a wonderful friend both in and out of work.  She is also slightly obsessed with "Fifty Shades of Grey."  I really don't like discussing the books with her.  Am I the only one who found it awkward when my secret fetish became the "in" thing?  It feels uncomfortable to me and I don't know why exactly.  Maybe the fact that I am not "out" to my friends and family makes me feel threatened.  I almost said too much to Betty once and I try to stay away from the topic of those books because of it.

Maybe Betty is secretly a spanko too, I don't know and I don't really want to.  Lots of people like a swat now and then but it's a different thing entirely to want to be paddled until your backside is black and blue... for fun.  In a way, I feel that by turning our lifestyles into smutty mainstream romance novels it tried to cheapened what we have and who we are.  Plus, there's a lot of excellent spanko and BDSM writing out there that could have represented us all so much more accurately. 

I love this part of my life, but it is very private.  I blog anonymously to maintain that privacy.  It just feels a little too close to home when my friends are swooning over those books.  Yes I said swooning.  There's just no other word for it.  I will be glad when the next trend comes along and pushes this one out of the way.

So, is it just me?  Does anyone else feel weird when their secret kinky life brushes too close to their vanilla life?  Or do you look at these books as a way to talk about TTWD with vanillas without having to out yourself? 

Belated Happy LOL Day!

As always, I am a day late and a dollar short to the party.  I had SUCH good intentions too.  I always do.  Enough of my excuses, just know that I appreciate all who drop by to read my little blog no matter what day it is.  I would love to hear from anyone who wants to comment.  I myself am a serial lurker, so if you want to lurk here go ahead.  I will leave a plate of cookies and a pot of coffee on the table next to the comfy chairs. 

This little blog is my attempt to step out into the world a little more and connect with others who do this thing we do.  Simon and I are learning to be a couple in a day to day relationship after so much time long distance.  Add in learning to be a spanking couple in that day to day relationship and it has some extra ups and downs.  I always worry what to write here.  How much is too much?   Am I going to hurt his feelings?  Will I bore my readers?  Does this make my butt look big?  Oh wait, different worry list.  You get the idea.

I appreciate all who have left kind and welcoming comments here and hope to get to know you all better in the coming year.  Happy LOL Day and many spanks to you all!  :)

Bottom vs. Spoon

I had a run in with an old nemesis last night.  The nasty, stingy wooden spoon.  It's your basic run of the mill, kitchen aisle, wooden spoon.  Nothing fancy, but stings like a swarm of bees attacking your bare bottom.  (You all know what I am talking about.)

Last night Simon decided someone needed a spanking, and that someone was me! Yay!  I was very happy he was feeling up to doing some spanking, it's been a while and I was extra happy he felt good enough to be the one initiating it.  But then I started dragging my feet.  Funny how easy it is to say I want a spanking when I am not going to get one and how hard it is to let myself admit I want it when it is staring me in the face.  I still have moments where my mind can not quite grasp that my body likes this.

Anyway...

I ended up draped over Simon's lap on our great big, comfy new bed.  Half the arsenal was sitting next to him which did not make me happy since it has been so long since my last spanking.  I was super tense and could not relax which frustrated me.  When I get frustrated while someone is smacking my butt with a stingy mean spoon I get mad and then I cry.  So I did.  I told him I was not in the good place and he offered to stop but I didn't want to be left in the BAD place.  Ugh.  So he asked me if I wanted him to spank me out of it.  I said, "I don't know," which means yes but I was having a really hard time with saying yes.

So he spanked me some more and I cried a bit and threatened a bit and was dramatic, but as he pointed out towards the end, I never told him I was done and to stop.  And so we come to the spoon...

I was having a decent mix of hand spanking and leather paddle with the donkey hide rubber paddle mixed in( and not being awful for once) when Simon picked up his dumb spoon and started stinging my backside with bee-sting swats.  I was squawking in my usual colorful and loud fashion when the spoon broke!

Yes folks that's right, my bottom finally defeated the nasty old spoon!  There is something so satisfying about breaking an implement with your butt.  It's like when you play expert level Minesweeper for 3 days hours and finally win.  The spoon can now be retired as the 3rd implement to be defeated by my bottom.  Go me! 

That was by no means the end of my spanking but it seemed to make me happy enough to get to a better space in my head.  After that, I enjoyed a light to medium spanking with the leather strap and we finished out feeling pretty good.  I was not very sore, it takes a lot for it to linger, but I had a couple of small bruises this morning.  I felt better and I hope we're getting back on the spanko wagon.

Of course I came home cranky today, so I probably need another one...
Spanking not spoon that is!

Thoughts on Canes

I was thinking about canes today and I felt like writing about them.  Canes are one of those implements I find everyone has a strong opinion about.  You either love them or hate them.  They can excite the body or inspire fear, but I have never heard anyone say they are ambivalent towards them. 

Personally, I am a huge fan of rattan canes.  I do not like delrin canes at all though.  I find the swish and sting of rattan to be a delicious combination of agony and pleasure that no other implement can replicate.  I know there are a lot of people who have a fear of canes and do not wish to try them.  I never expected I would be a fan, but after the first few times I was hooked.

I wish I could explain how it feels to me and really do it justice. On impact the cane stroke stings, but then it seems to dig in deeper into my bottom and grab hold.  I like my cane strokes nice and slow so I have plenty of time to ride the pain through it's phases.  After that initial sting and bite, there is an emotional buildup inside of me that I have to breathe through as the pain dulls.  After enough repetitions the emotion will bubble over and spill out either in tears or giggles.  The first time I started laughing during a hard spanking I think it freaked Simon out, but the endorphins build up and have to go somewhere! 

Simon likes to count.  Or more specifically likes me to count.  It serves two purposes, it lets him feel toppy and it lets him know when I am ready for the next stroke.  When I growl out the next number between clenched teeth, or sob or giggle it, he knows I am done milking the last one and ready for a fresh wave of pain, pleasure, endorphins, and emotions.  Originally, I was against counting but it has become very useful for us. 

As I mentioned above, I am a rattan fan but I dislike delrin.  I find delrin canes to be much too rigid and the impact feels too deep.  I always say it feels like getting caned with a tree limb when we try to use the delrin.  Simon does not care for it either, he does not like the balance of the delrin cane we have and it just doesn't have the same swish.  I have not tried acrylic but I doubt I would like it much since it is also a hard plastic material.  I find I prefer natural materials like wood, leather and rattan for my implements over plastics.

We became fond of the cane while we were both living in apartments.  It is a quiet implement (as long as I don't yelp too loud) and we prefer to keep the neighbors out of our sex life.  At one time, Simon was able to warm me up only using the cane and did a very good job of it.  We're a little out of practice on that now that we have a house and don't need to be as quiet, but I bet it would come back to us quickly if we tried!

Right now I only own one rattan cane from Cane-iac.  It has lasted an amazing 2 years.  Considering we broke our first 2 within a few short months, this one has really stood the test of time and bottom.  I will be ever so sad when we finally break it over my backside, it has a lot of good memories.  I am hoping Simon will start feeling better soon so we can order a few new canes to play with.  I would like to try mixing things up with different sizes.  We've only tried a couple and I would like to expand our horizons in that area. 

I found this great picture at American Spanking Society, I am not sure who the credit belongs to, but I just love it.  The marks are so clear and beautiful.  You can almost feel each stroke just looking at it.  Caning is an art form when done by a knowledgeable and talented top.  I am lucky Simon is both! 

Good Pain, Bad Pain

Lately bad pain has been keeping me from the good pain I enjoy so much.  Simon has been hurting pretty bad from an old ankle injury that never quite healed right after surgery.  Now that he is on his feet at work all day it has flared up and is making him miserable. 

He went to the Dr. today and she gave him something for the swelling and ordered x-rays.  I hope we can get him some relief. I am off work this week and it has become much more obvious to me how much he is really hurting.  I'm starting to understand why he never wants to play spanko games!  It hurts too much to stand on it and it hurts too much to have me over his lap squirming around and bumping it.

Our new sleigh bed frame arrived today and it raised the bed up so high I think I may need a step stool!  I am worried it will not be ankle-friendly for Simon getting in and out of bed.  I am the one who picked out this bed and I will feel bad if it makes it hard for him.  You know, I just realized... he lets me have whatever I want.  Sometimes I feel like I spoil him too much and he has me wrapped around his finger and it irritates me, but here I am lying on the bed I picked out typing this post.  Interesting.  Maybe I am a little spoiled too!

Saturday I am meeting Simon's parents for the first time.  I am pretty sure they will like me, but it's still a little stressful.  I have started cleaning the house, but I will have to really get a lot done tomorrow.   Gotta make that first impression!

Hopefully, we can get Simon's bad pain under control so he can start dishing out good pain to me again soon. 

I've Been A Naughty Blogger, Someone Should Spank Me!

I have definitely neglected my blog lately and I do apologize.  It has been a busy month and I have not had a lot of interesting things to say.  Simon is working full time now, a mix of days and evenings that means there are days when I see him for about 5 minutes (at most) when we are both awake.  That is not fun, and I am not used to it yet.  We're still in a spanking slump and we don't know why.  We want to do it, but it just seems like so much work.  Same thing with sex.  I know it's an important part of a relationship and I do miss feeling intimate, but lately it seems like we are never in the mood at the same time.  For either activity.  In a way, I almost wish we had some sort of structure like the discipline couples do.  Maybe then we would not let "us" slide so far. 

I feel like I am disconnected from the community too.  Over the years, I have enjoyed getting to know like-minded spankos online.  I have never been to parties or participated in local kink groups, so the online community has been where I could go to talk to others about TTWD.  For the last year or so I have struggled to find a chat room that I enjoy.  I like a relaxed environment with friendly people who know how to respect boundaries, but still have fun.  I'm not single so I am not interested in meeting a spanker or lover, just making friends and hanging out.  If anyone knows a place they can recommend, please let me know.  I miss chatting and I get lonely when Simon is at work.  And maybe getting back to talking to others who love this will spark something for us and help bring us back to why we love it too. 

Good News!

Things have been busy around here this last week.  Simon got a new job!  They called and offered it to him today and we are so excited!  We're going to have a little weekend getaway to celebrate since he will almost certainly be working most or all weekends to start out.  I am planning to pack a few implements in my suitcase and see if we can knock the dust off of them.  They get sad when they don't get to come out and play often enough!  Hmmm what to pack, what to pack...

Just A Quick Post

No spanking action here this week.  Just a quick note so you all don't think I am dead.  Friday I was so sick I wished I was dead.  Either my new medication made me sick or I had a stomach bug or both.  My doctor put me back on my old medicine since I was feeling sick all week.  Now we don't know what I am going to take.  Sigh.

Simon is hopefully working quite a bit this week.  He has been going through a temp agency and it varies a lot.  He had an interview last week for a full time job with another company and they had him go do the drug screening.  Cross your fingers he gets it!

At some point, I am going to need to decide what I want to be when I grow up too.  I just don't see my current job being one I can retire from in 30 or 40 years.  My problem is I don't know what I want to do and I have a hard time staying focused on one thing.  I lose interest easily.  I think that's a by-product of a medical condition I have and the medication that treats it. 

Well, I am going to go make dinner before I ramble on any farther.  I just wanted to say hi!

Spanked Warm and Rosy

I was napping and minding my own business.  Simon was watching stupid baseball on TV, but the game was rained out or whatever and he came up to find me.  He decided it was time for my spanking.  I was not 100% on board with a spanking interupting my nap but I was awake enough to know I better not pass up the moment!

So, pretty much every implement we own gets dumped out on the bed and I try to remember why I like this again.  Oh yeah, because I am crazy.  Got it.  So face down on the bed I go into a pile of pillows.  Simon decides to warm up with the cane.  I yelp that that is NOT a warm up.  (Actually, with practice it can be a great warmup, but we are out of practice!)  He switched to other things that made me squawk then settled on the lovely leather paddle.  It's my favorite.  I got that with some hand spanking for a little bit.  The wooden spoon snuck in some too.  I hate that stingy thing and he likes the noises I make when he uses it. 

Ow! Ow! Hey that hurts! Ow!

Then someone decided I did not need pants. 

Hey!  Those are my personal pants!  I didn't say you could pull them down!  

Oh I need to ask?

Yes you do!

No I don't.  WHACK WHACK WHACK!

OWWWW!

The middle of the spanking is a blur of wooden spoon, bath brush, leather strap, rubber paddle, delrin loop, leather paddle, cane and wooden school paddle.  I think there was a fair amount of swearing in there too.  What is it about canes that suddenly make spankers the swear word police?

Since we've been playing bingo recently he thought it was a good idea to sing that stupid song and keep time with each implement.

B-I-N-G-O, B-I-N-G-O, B-I-N-G-O, and Bingo was his name O!

Luckily several of the nastier ones only got one B-I-N-G-O!  That many with the delrin loop would have knocked the wind out of me.

As we were winding down, he asked if I wanted to finish with the cane.

Maybe.

Do you want to count 12?

Maybe.

Do you want to be done after that?

Maybe.

Twelve lovely cane strokes later I found myself clearing off the dining room table and bending over for "six of the best" with the school paddle.  I tried to convince him six of the medium was enough but I guess that didn't have the same ring to it.  How can you not love a guy who doesn't fall for that?  I am expecting a bruise or two, I need to check later for sure.  The soreness doesn't last long for me but I do still have that warm rosy feeling on my backside.  Sigh.  Happiness.

I love this crazy thing we do.  Even when it hurts and I question why I like it, I still like it.  The pain is still pain, but feels good too.  I yelp and squawk about it and fuss that I am not taking my spanking gracefully enough, but I take everything he gives me.  I don't understand it all and probably never will. but it continues to fascinate me and probably always will. 

Birthday Spanking and Vacation Wrap-up

Well, today is the last day of my vacation and I am probably more tired than when I started!  I last left off on Wednesday, so I will write a quick post from Thursday on.

Thursday was my birthday and it kind of sucked.  The world just would not leave us alone.  At 7am we dropped Simon's car off at the mechanic and came home with the intention of climbing back into bed for a nap and/or a cuddle.  My head was hurting from my new meds so I was leaning towards nap, but then the phone rang and the world butted in.  Simon's work called and he needed to get over to the place he had temped on Wednesday to fill out some paperwork NOW.  Ugh.  So, I had to drive him over and wait in the car for him to finish.  I waited and waited and waited.  By the time he came out it had been an hour and I was starving and if I did not find a bathroom soon I was going to wet my pants.  Top it off that I was on day 2 of my new medication and I was feeling pretty emotional already so I had a minor meltdown that ended up with us having brunch at Denny's. 

We were home around 11 or 12 and the day just kind of continued.  We tried again on the nap and both of our mothers called.  At some point I slept a little because I had one of those frustrating sex dreams where you never actually get to have sex.  Then in the afternoon we had to go get the car.  I dropped him off and ran to the grocery store to grab dinner.  He called me to tell me that the mechanic did finish the car so it will pass emissions, but now we would need to go back and get him to sign a form for something else.  We had forgotten to print the form and it was closing time, so we would get to go back on Friday. Joy. 

Thursday night Simon was in a funk and kept apologizing for ruining my birthday.  I told him the whole week had been my birthday and I was not upset.  It was not his fault the world would not leave us alone!  He did give me my birthday spanking before bed.  A medium strength hand spanking over the bed with my pants still on.  Not totally what we both had in mind but a step in the right direction for sure!

Friday we ran errands in the morning and then got the idea we should go do something very naughty.  It's a secret and no one knows we went.  Except now the 3-4 people who read my blog lol.  We snuck away on the casino bus and went back and gambled for the day again. We were not as lucky as last time, we lost a little bit but we came home with about half of what we had taken to spend.  I am happy with that!  We got home about 2 am, so it was nice to have someone else do the driving.  The bus is free and picks up about 8 blocks from our house so it's great for a day trip.  For overnighters we prefer to drive.

Saturday we ran a couple errands in the morning then finally got to relax in the afternoon.  We finally got some "nap" time too.  No spankings, but some nice massages and cuddling time.  I have been promised a spanking today, so I am hoping nothing else gets in the way of our alone time.  I don't know how people with kids ever find time to be together.  It seems like we're constantly running in opposite directions and the world keeps butting in!

On Vacation this Week for My Birthday... Yay!

I have been on vacation all week and have not been home to update my blog.  Simon and I started out Friday after work driving out to see my parents in Idaho.  It was a joint birthday party for me and my dad so it was a nice visit with all of my family.  Saturday we picked huckleberries and I got a few berries and an enormous bruise on my calf!  I am super clumsy and tripped over a log with a broken off branch sticking up.  Had I not been wearing jeans I would have been bleeding for sure.  Now it looks like someone spanked my leg.  Ha!

Sunday we came home for one night then Monday it was off to the casino for an overnight stay.  My birthday is tomorrow so we celebrated a couple days early.  We had a lot of fun!  Simon won a slot tournament (I came in 3rd!) and then later that night he won $500 at bingo.  We had not tried it before and it was pretty fun.  The winning part was really fun!  All in all we came out with about the same amount we went in with even after food, drink and hotel so it was a GREAT time!

Last night we got home and relaxed on the couch and I started to cry.  Simon and I are still getting used to being together all the time and it's not always easy or perfect.  We had a really good talk and said some things we needed to say and I think we both felt a lot better.  Sometimes I feel like there are walls between us we have not gotten through yet.  For two years we were long distance.  Due to circumstances I saw him twice in 2011.  A total of about 10 days.  When he came here in May to move his stuff I had not seen him in 6 months.  In June he moved in for real.  We're both old and set in our ways so it's been interesting.  In some ways we're settling in and in others we are still on "company manners."  For example, we can never make a decision about where to go eat.  Or what we want to do.  We're being too accommodating to the point of annoying.  Plus I have been having depression issues lately and that has not helped during this time. 

I saw my doctor this morning and I am starting new medication.  I had developed a side effect that is not good and have to go off of it.  I am crossing my fingers this new one will be a good one. I have a lot of stress in my life and I have not had a lot of stress release lately.  I think a nice birthday spanking would go a long way to relieving some of that stress.  So, dear readers, keep your fingers crossed I get what I really want for my birthday! 

Simon is at work tonight and I kind of miss him.  We've spent the last 5 days together non-stop and it feels like when he used to come visit me.  It was nice to have time away from real life and spend real time together again.  He's going to be home in an hour so I am going to finish this post up.  Wish me luck on getting that birthday spanking!

What's in a Name?

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose

By any other name would smell as sweet.

-William Shakespeare, Romeo & Juliet

As I create this blog I find that I am stuck trying to decide what to call my boyfriend on my blog.  It's probably not a great idea to use his real name.  You just never know with this thing we do how it could come back and bite you on the backside.   (Not in the good way either.)

So, I asked him what he would like to be called and he was no help.  He suggested assorted names featuring words like "master" and "studly." Or not.  Love you, but no.  Then we went through a list of goofy nicknames that conjure up images of strength and dominance... like "Snuggles."  He wasn't going for that.  I can't see why not, it's a great name.  Next came random names from TV characters.  Fonzie?  Also no.  

What to do, what to do? And then Google came to my rescue.  Google knows all.  I searched my online name and found that Jeanette is the nerdy, clumsy, shy girlfriend of Simon from Alvin and the Chipmunks.  It was an ironically accurate description of me and a no-brainer.  I have decided to call him Simon.  

It's a slow news day at our house.  Simon made dinner while I was at work and it was delicious.  He does not cook and was pretty skeptical when I asked him to make the crockpot salsa chicken, but I told him exactly how to make it and it turned out perfect.  I think he has potential to become the chief cook and bottle washer around here.  Ha.  In my dreams.  

I feel like it took me a ridiculously long time to write so little tonight.  I am so glad the week is half over and I am ready for Friday and vacation!  I will try to have wonderful spanking adventures to share very soon. :)

My Frustrations are Frustrated

I have been, well, a bit of a bitch lately.  Everything seems to irritate me.  Work, home, myself.  It all makes me cranky.  I have a vacation coming up next week and I desperately need it.  I need spanked as desperately as I need a vacation.  Somebody has been too tired for spanking lately.  Not me.  What do you do when your partner is just not feeling the spanking mojo?  Currently I pout and bitch and get irritable and cranky.  How's that working for me? Yeah... not so great.  Even saying I need it is not working right now.  Men are so difficult.  One minute they chase you around the house with a bathbrush, the next you can't get a spanking even if you back into an open hand.  What's a girl to do?

To top it off, he wanted me to read him my blog post from yesterday.  How can I properly bitch if I have to read it out loud?  Sheesh. 

Don't get me wrong, I am happy with my man.  I am just feeling a little spank cranky right now and I really thought when he moved in that would put an end to my spank crankies once and for all.  I guess real life doesn't quite work that way!

Just Another Spanko with a Blog!

Hello and welcome to my brand new blog!  I have finally gotten the nerve up to jump into the blog world.  My name is Jeanette and I am a mid-30's woman living in Washington State with my boyfriend and two very spoiled cats.  It is a D/s relationship where the cats dominate and we submit.  Naturally.

Seriously though, I do not submit to my man and he does not submit to me.  I find this makes me a bit of an odd duck in the spanking blogosphere.  He spanks me because we both enjoy it.  There are no punishments or maintenance spankings in our relationship, not that neither one of us doesn't deserve it... but that is not our dynamic.  I am hoping to find there is room in the spanking world for people like us to be accepted too.

For several years I chatted in spanking chat rooms and lurked on message boards.  My BF and I met on Spank Finder two and a half years ago.  (Thank you Bethie for making that possible for many of us.) I also made some great friends there like Rosie and Mr. Bossy from Fresh n' Wild Sassafras.  (My very favorite blog!)

Now I am trying a blog in my search to connect with others in the community in a grown-up and meaningful way.  I don't know yet what form this blog will take since I don't know yet what form my spanking life will take.  My BF and I met online and we were long distance for our entire relationship until he moved in with me this June.  It is an adjustment to going from living alone for many years to living with someone else.  Add in the spanking twist and it can get interesting! 

I hope to get to know others from all angles of this crazy, wonderful thing we do.  I enjoy learning about other types of spanking relationships and sharing about mine.

So, welcome to my new blog!
