Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'

Good morning, my Lovelies! Wow! This week has absolutely flown by in some ways and in others, it has dragged on and on. I apologize, but I hadn't even given my blog a thought until this morning.  There's just been so much going on! Between work, and writing, and kids, and husband, and a sick cat, I've been going non-stop! And that's just the stuff local to me! We won't even touch on stuff globally! (Although, I do want to take a moment to say that my heart is breaking for the people of Ukraine right now and you all have my support!)

So, somewhere along the way this week, in the chaos of thoughts that I'm bombarded with daily (blessing or curse?), I had an odd musing. Is it just me, or does it seem like men and women are part of a cruel joke when we're talking about sex drive?

Ok, hear me out. Most men hit their sexual peak in their late teens/20's, right? And women, don't normally hit their peak until late 30's/40's, right? So many men in relationships tend to stray during this time period. I'm not saying all men, but I'm sure the numbers are up there. They want as much sex as possible and when the opportunity presents itself, they go with it, consequences be damned.

Now, as I've gotten older, I can attest to the women's side of things. I may not always have the time or energy for sex, but the thoughts are there more than they ever have been. (Like...it's unreal how often my thoughts turn to sex!) And from stories I've heard from friends, and friends of friends, that time period in a woman's life can also be a time where a high percentage stray from their partners. Whether that's from them just wanting it more or their men not being able to perform as they had in times past, or other factors, I don't know, but it happens.

Am I the only one who sees this? Doesn't this seem like some sort of cruel joke? How much better would our sex lives be if we hit these peaks around the same time? How many more relationships would remain committed and grow instead of being subjected to cheating and falling apart?

Maybe this isn't news to anyone, or maybe I'm completely off the mark here, but it was one of those random thoughts that I thought I would share. Am I crazy? Wait, we already know the answer to that. Does anyone else see what I'm talking about?

I think I'm rambling. Anyway, I thought I would share one of the many paths my thoughts travelled on this week. Agree? Disagree? Let me know!

Now, off to the hell of working when there's a deadline.


Until next time, and as always,


Much love and affection, from me to you!

Find Out Who Your Friends Are

Good morning, my Lovelies! It is time once again for me to get a few thoughts out of my head (maybe more than a few) and I just know that each and every one of you is itching to hear what has been floating around up there. Well, maybe not, but y'all love me and will humor me anyway. I don't know if this blog will touch you in any way, will make you feel anything, but I know it will me. As most of you know, my father passed away a couple of weeks ago. Neither of my parents has been in particularly good health for quite some time now. And while nobody is ever prepared to lose a loved one, not really, I feel like I had thought about the inevitability enough that I'm handling it better than I thought I would. Oh, I still have my moments. Believe me when I say I miss my father, but he was in pain and had been in pain for a long time. Maybe it just eases my mind that he is no longer suffering? Maybe it eases my mind that I never had to put him in a nursing facility, which is one

Taste Of You

Good morning, my Lovelies! I hope this blog finds you doing well and that things are groovy in your part of the world. How's things in my world? My epic game of Frogger continues. I guess my getting food poisoning over the weekend was the equivalent of my froggy self getting splatted on the speed lanes. Good times. I actually started writing this blog a couple of nights ago and about halfway through it dawned on me that everything I was saying sounded horribly familiar. I had to go back and check myself. It turns out that I had already talked about that particular topic so I kind of started over again. I mean, I assume you guys don't need more details on the night my ex-husband stabbed me. We'll move along. Instead, let's talk about... Desire. Has there ever been someone that you craved beyond all logical reason? You just can't get enough of them. You think about them all day, dream about them at night, and they're the first thought on your mind when you wake in

Crazy

Good evening, my Lovelies! Gracious! I hardly know where to begin. This is my first blog of the new year and I would be remiss if I didn't take a moment to acknowledge everyone who started reading and following my blog over the past year. I've gained some amazing followers and new friends and I'm thankful to each and every one of you. The past year brought many changes and challenges. It also brought some heartbreak, but at the same time, it brought many heart smiles. I had many blessings and I'm grateful for them all. So what is it that I want to talk to you about tonight? I think I've touched on this before, but if you don't already know, I'm a very insecure person. I've had friends, family, and people that I love, to just walk away without looking back. I've always wondered what I did that made them leave or what I didn't do to make them want to stay. I've tried repeatedly to tell myself that their leaving falls on them and not me, but I&#
