FFF #26 Recap

Erm, there really isn't much to see here this week. I know Roz is kinda incommunicado due to tech woes. And everyone else seems to be missing.

So here's OLIVIA! With mostly good news!

I've had a hell of a week. So I'm outta here. I need me some dinner.

FFF #26

Guess what? It's Friday again! And tomorrow the gas fella will come and connect by stove so I'll finally be done with the kitchen drama. 

Here are the numbers this week -

Total no of steps for the week - 80,038
Highest no in a day - 15,555 (Saturday - that's the day I cleaned the kitchen!)
No of >10k steps days - 5 (wooooohooooo!)
Exercise days - 2. Yeah, dismal. But considering I took so many steps this week I'm not really fussed.

I've been feeling bloated and out of sorts in my gut so I decided last weekend that I should do a detox. 

I dug out my leftover teabags of Skinnymint Teatox teas and had one teabag steeped in a good tumbler full of hot water, that made two cups of tea. Had one on Friday night and one on Saturday night. And I am glad to report things were VERY SMOOTH over the weekend LOL. 

Here it is, if you're interested.

Sex On A Schedule

645 - Go out to dinner.

745 - Pick up groceries.

800 - Contemplate coming up for a quickie.

805 - We're in the house. I put away the vegetables. He goes into the room and starts stripping.

810 - The aircon's on and we're in bed - I'm getting undressed.

"OK, 820. That's what time you have to be done by, so that we can get you out of here by half 8!"

I say this as I'm getting ready to suck on Roger and BIKSS is taking his boxers off.

815 - We start getting horizontal

820 - We're doing the clean-up

821 - Let the cuddling begin

I do a funny thing where I fidget and move while I'm in "cuddle" position. He asked me what that was about - I said well, we have to speed things up, so I'm moving through all the positions I normally would in 2 hours, only everything is sped up now that we only have 10 minutes!

He got into the swing of things too and started moving this way and that, shifting his arm into different positions. It was hilarious!

828 - He says he needs to get dressed. I accuse him of stealing one minute of my cuddle time.

829 - I kick him out of bed and tell him to get dressed.

830 - He's out the door.

AND THAT'S how you get jiggy with it when you're pressed for time!

Tuesday Toon #37

Wait. These aren't toons. They're just amusing pics with a theme.

Enjoy!

This one actually looks promising - 

Friday Night Drama

Let's do a picture composition. We used to have these in primary school - we'd be given a number of pictures in a sequence and have to make up a story. So here's our picture sequence for what happened on Friday night.

Olivia and her submissive heart - and taking time off to go to class

I have managed to stay on track with the exercises this week. However, my eating habits, particularly sweet things have gone down hill somewhat since starting work again. What with birthday shouts, treats from the bosses etc. I need to work on that.

And now I shall share with you the secret to bright and clean kitchen floors. 

No scrubbing, no detergent, no smells from caustic solution and NO sweat! 

I've heard about these melamine sponges before but none of my friends have used it, or if they have, never mentioned it to me. Until Friday. When I said something about scrubbing my kitchen floor, my boss turned to look at me (with some surprise) and said "Why don't you just use the white sponges from Daiso?"

I admitted that I'd never tried them and didn't know how well they worked. He suggested I give it a go as his wife swears by them.

So I did. And I showed BIKSS the video of the sponge cleaning off the black stains on my kitchen tiles and he was as impressed as I was. 

And so I didn't mop my floor. I sponged them. It was quick and easy and my tiles are bright and sparkly again. Well, ok, not sparkly. Just very clean! 

If you haven't yet tried these, I highly recommend you go get some and give it a try!

FFF #25

Welcome to another Fit for Friday update!  It's a quarter way to a hundred! That's a lot of weeks, y'all. 

Last week's stats - 

Total no of steps : 75,334

Highest no in a day : 14,129 on Thursday

No of >10k steps days : 4

Exercise days : 3

Yay. Maybe I can have some cake. 

Scrap that. Maybe I'll reward myself with a massage. 

On the kitchen front - I have a serious shortage of countertop space. Changing from an L config to just having a straight row of cupboards means not only do I lose cupboard space, I also lose countertop space. The toaster oven occupies the area left to the sink, then there's a workspace between the sink and the hob, and the microwave JUST ABOUT fits the area to the right of the hob. It's a tight squeeze, but it'll do for now. If I ever have to replace either of those appliances I'll have to remember to try and get slightly smaller ones. I have NO idea where my kettle will go, but I'll think about that when the hob/gas is finally connected and everything can be moved into the cabinets. That will happen on the 28th. I suppose it could go between sink and the hob, but that would eat into my  work space. We'll see. 

On the friend front - I've been hanging out a bit with one of the girls from the main clinic. She's tendered her resignation and the people at my outlet had the official farewell lunch on Wednesday - her last day - complete with gift exchange! She was so sweet to have gotten each of the 3 of us a little goodie bag of treats and a baumkuchen from a popular Japanese confectionary. The folks at the main clinic didn't get the cake. Just the goody bag for them! LOL. She likes us better, she says - didn't even bother to be subtle about it. We had each chipped in to get some items from L'occitane and Bath & Body Works to make her a little hamper.

On Thursday she was already officially off from work so she, me and the older lady I work with went out for lunch *sans the boss* for a proper bitching session! And then we made plans for more lunches next week and the week after - she starts work at her new job on the 1st of August so we're taking advantage of the time she has between now and then to explore some new places to eat in a nearby just-renovated mall!

It's nice that a 60-something, a 40-something and a 20-something can share a meal and hang out together. There's just something about it that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. 

TBT - CWS 1

Since I've been wanting to resurrect CWS but haven't been able to squeeze out enough time to make a plan for it, I thought I might jump on the TBT bandwagon and use it as an opportunity to share the CWS posts from moons ago. 

So here it is. The first CWS-tagged post from 2012.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Subs and Blowjobs

This is more a discussion topic than a post. I'm not sure how and where to put this (is there a forum gadget? can I set up a forum-like tab?) so I'm just putting this here. 

My girlfriends have all stated very vehemently that they dislike giving their men blowjobs. Now I don't understand this. I think it's the most intimate, wonderful gift a girl could offer her man. And I love it! 

I don't know WHY I love it, I just do. Maybe it's the wonderment of the penis. Maybe it's the satisfaction I get seeing him thusly pleasured. Maybe it's the sense of accomplishment at making him cum in my mouth. I don't know and this isn't really what this post is about.

What it IS about is this - these same women, when I've approached the topic of women being submissive to their husbands, have all but stoned me for even thinking such a thing, never mind practising it. As I read all the blogs I follow I notice there is a strong desire for submissives to take their doms in their mouths and pleasure them with willing blowjobs.

(anon. upload to Picanese)

(BOD I tell BIKSS - Blowjob On Demand)

Is there a correlation between women who desire to be submissive in a relationship and their willingness for (and addiction to) going down on their men? 

Is cock-worshipping a trait of sub-inclined women?

If you would, let me know if you're a willing sub who introduced TTWD to your dom or the other way around... or if you're still an unwilling sub but have decided to go along with your partner because of whatever reason. And whether you've always been a fan of oral sex (giving) or did this grow (pun INTENDED!) on you (and in you... LOL).

Thanks... and do spread the word... It'll be good to get some answers from women in similar relationships. 

Quickie Dominance

This is a quickie because :

A) I have to go to bed. I told BIKSS I'd be in bed at 1130 and I'm late. I've told him I'm writing a post so I hope that buys me some time. 

B) BIKSS had a quickie Dom moment earlier this evening. 

Today my kitchen got done. The countertop came in. The sink was put in. I have running water in my kitchen again. And I'm going to let you have a peek at the new cabinets... 

But first, the story.

After we had decided to unstack the dryer and washer BIKSS offered to pop by for a short while to deal with it for me, although he had other plans this evening and wouldn't be able to hang out with me today. 

He arrived while the plumber was here for round two - as I discovered some water escaping from somewhere underneath the sink. 

When the plumber got done, the two of them got the appliances turned around and they adjusted the legs on the washing machine so it wouldn't be wobbly.

We decided that with a different facing it might not affect me as much, so BIKSS suggested I leave it be for a while and then see how things sit with my obsessive self. 

The plumber left and we said goodbye and thank you, then I went back to have a look. The dryer was a leeeeeetle bit off. So I went behind it and nudged it about 2mm to the right. But where BIKSS was standing he saw that one corner had moved out of alignment so he shifted it back into place. 

"You pushed it out when you were back there," he said, explaining.

"Let me see... " 

"It's ok now, it's fine," he reassured me.

But of course I'm a stubborn cow and can't just take his word for it, so I walked over towards said corner where he was standing and was just about to put my hands on the dryer to adjust it when he said in his Daddy Dom voice, "It's fine now, LEAVE IT." 

OK you see, sometimes I go a bit crazy - like when I asked him if I should get the plumber back to move the faucet half a millimeter to the back cos it looked a little not-so-straight. Of course, his answer was NO. And then he grabbed the thing and tweaked it a little and it budged into place and I was happy. 

So it's good that BIKSS knows when to let me call the shots (especially in my home), and when to stop me from going overboard, and when to fix things in ways that he knows will satisfy my need for everything to be "exactly just so". 

Because when I try to get something JUST RIGHT and I can't (cos it's usually so tiny or small or unnoticeable that you can't really fix it - you know ... like if it's too low on one side by just half a millimeter and then trying to move it makes it too high by half a millimeter.. that sort of thing) well, that usually ends up in me getting totally flustered and frustrated and then I work myself up into a mad frenzy. 

So um, as much as I say BIKSS usually doesn't do the Dom thing around the house cos it's mostly my call, he DOES have his moments when I need it. 

And now, finally, here it is! THIS is my brand new kitchen. THIS is what I've been on and on about for the last month. Thank you, Blogfriends, for listening to me rant and rave and ramble on about it, post after post! 

Spanking Monday

The more I looked at the huge monstrous tower in my kitchen (the dryer on top of the washer) the more I didn't like it. 

BIKSS helped. Did some kitchen magic on the lappy and helped me imagine what it would look like if I took it down and placed them side by side instead, on the left of my cabinets. 

I decided to go ahead with the side by side configuration (his opinion and preference played a large part in influencing my decision I might add) and then I said "Now what?"

"Now you get into bed."

Best words I'd heard all day. 

He immediately went to the toy drawer and pulled out his weapons of choice. I got into bed, on my front, but leaning to one side so I could look up at him.

I continued asking about what to ask the guys to do tomorrow. "Turn around," he said, then went on with "and when they're done with the sink and the counter top, ask them if they can help with unstacking the dryer."

"But," I was intending to go on, but that was when he began counting. 

"Five..."

I turned back to lie on my front and settled into a comfortable face-down position.

Counting down is hot, is it not?

Cane. Hand. Flogger. Christmas Paddle. 

My butt was warm and stingy. 

After he finished he climbed in beside me and asked "Are you ok?" when I didn't move. 

Yes. I was. I was relaxed. Finally. Totally relaxed. Didn't care about anything at that point. 

He flipped me around and began playing with my pussy. I wasn't wet.

*Eh? What's going on there?* 

I think I must have been really stressed out in order not to have gotten horny during a spanking. This was one of those rare occasions when my tap didn't get switched on while my butt was being warmed. It almost always gets me wet. 

"Pussy is broken," I lamented.

"Nah, she's not," he reassured me. 

He twiddled a nipple. And I was just waiting. For something. I wasn't feeling particularly randy. Then he reached for the other - which was squished between my arm and my body on the side I was lying on. 

"Other nipple," he said. 

But I didn't budge. *I know right???*

When he couldn't get access to it, he moved his hand away.

Ok, no problem. He went back to fiddle with the first nipple. And for a while I thought - he's being kind. But I really could do with a dose of dominance right about --- Insert Sharp Intake of Breath and Scrunched Up Face Here ---

"In that case this nipple gets to receive ALL the pain then..."

He gave me a "Good Girl." when I winced. Followed by, "Other nipple..."

This time I moved so that he could get to it. 

The pussy was definitely not broken. 

He checked with his other hand. Reached under my still-warm bum and inserted a finger or 3. 

Then it was both hands. Then his face was between my legs. 

I let go. Didn't think about the kitchen. Didn't think about the stress. Didn't think about what he was doing to my girlie bits. 

Just enjoyed all the sensations - his tongue, lips, fingers. 

He had me put my legs up over his shoulders. Yum...

I asked for my vibe, but I was afraid it would be difficult to cum. This has been a bit of a worry for me recently - trouble coming. 

But it was for nothing. The vibe went on clit, Daddy's fingers curled up inside me. And the cum was had. 

He continued to lick, gently, flicking his tongue over and along the sides of my super-sensitive nub. 

I lasted as long as I could then shrieked "Daddy, stop!"

"But why?" he teased. 

"Cos I'm tired!!!" I blurted out, giggling.

And he stopped and laughed along with me. 

(Oh, PS, he recorded the spanking - I think it's the first time we've done this - he says I can watch it when I'm bored.)

On the topic of spanking, a while back KD issued an invitation for challenges / dares that might contain an embarrassment component - you can find it in this post : Kinky Jackass.

Here is the result of my challenge - Fondles' Dare.

Merry Contrary issued a challenge too - You can read about it on Happy Birthday, Merry.

FFF 24 Recap - The Kitchen and Dog Edition

First, the news in brief :

Kitchen update - 

The downturn for one of the sides of my counter top was incorrectly done. They've taken it back to the workshop and hopefully will be here to install it on Tuesday. 

That's what a downturn looks like

Saying goodbye to an ex-pet -

I used to co-own a dog with my ex-gf / current bff and she lived with us for 6 years. I'll call her Dog. When we broke up and I moved out (I had just bought my own apartment then) she continued to stay with my bff (let's call her Betty). 

Betty eventually moved back home with her mum after her dad passed as her mum felt that the house was too quiet and was aching for company. Dog moved back with her and I would go over ever so often to visit. She stayed with Betty and grandma for 10 years. 

Earlier this year she had stomach surgery, and pulled thru (yay!) but her kidneys had been deteriorating for some time (*sad*) and after 6 more months of happy times with Betty (and me, when I would visit), last Tuesday Dog finally got too weak to stand / walk. We had her checked out at the vet -lucky for us Dog's mum works at the vet clinic (some of you might recall my mention of this) so she got the best care possible. She was admitted and put on an IV drip to flush out the toxins in her system.

The bottom line is she had end stage kidney failure. Kidneys not working so well = toxins in the blood. It was affecting her nervous system and brain function, and she had a couple of seizures on Wednesday. 

She was eating fine on Thursday, and seemed to be getting slightly better. But on Friday things were looking bleak and by that night she had begun to refuse food. The early morning seizure on Saturday told her mummy that it was time for her to call it. 

Dog as a puppy

Yesterday at noon I said goodbye to my darling Dog. The first dog with whom I've ever shared a home. The one who taught me everything I know about dogs. The one who inspired us to publish our pet magazine some years ago, who forced us to research training methods and learn to solve aggression problems. The one who bit me and snarled at me and whom people said we should have put down because she cannot be tamed. 

Dog (and Betty and me) overcame the aggression and was always ready with licks and kisses for me, and would playfully gnaw on Betty's arm. She had different ways of showing affection for both of us. She would "high five" with her right paw, and shake hands with her left. 

She smiled A LOT!

She was picky with her food, and obsessive about keeping her pee tray clean. 

I'm rambling on, but I feel the need to share this somewhere. I know to a lot of our friends (bless them, they came to the clinic to say goodbye with us) Betty is the one who needs the fussing over and the comforting right now, and I get that. I really do. She's been the one taking care of Dog the last decade. I'm just the visiting parent on the weekends. But that doesn't mean I don't feel deeply for this silly little mongrel whom I baked liver treats for and took on walks to my parents' place for visits. 

And who knew the human nose could produce SO MUCH SNOT!

Thank you for reading and letting me go on and on as I have. 

It helps to put it out here, somewhere. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

OK - enough of that emo stuff. On to the recap!

ancilla_ksst - holding steady is a win as far as I'm concerned!

Michael M - new goal - 2 inches off that waist by September. Stay strong my friend.

Olivia - dumped the old doctor's ass and got a new one. Oh, and a new weight range. Hurray!

Roz writes : 

I usually count my update from Friday to Thursday. Last weekend I didn't exercise Friday through Sunday but on track the rest of the week. Not the greatest week considering I usually do the exercises 6/7 days.

and Downunder Don says : 

I am in sight of my quackologists desirable weight of 72kgs. I am still on the 5/2 diet as it seems to work very well for me with the occasional burst of exercise and lots of walking.

The re-cluttering of our house is now complete with the in-laws moved in a home for the terminally bewildered. Now starts the process of quietly getting rid of most of it...I think the local op-shop will do quite well out of it.

This week's links - perimenopause and Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). I've seen some chatter on this topic on my blog visits recently, so here are some articles. 

Perimenopause - The REAL pain in the butt before those periods stop altogether

(Note - some sites state that if your periods are more frequent that should be a cause for concern, however other sites say that if you're not ovulating that particular month, the walls break down and the cycle begins again in preparation for the next ovulation, hence the shorter interval between periods. I am convinced this is what I experienced when I had my freak double period month. The mucus looked very different and I didn't see the same progression as I do normally. ) 

Here's the link that talks about shorter periods and other symptoms and what they might mean

How well do you know your mucus? Here's a picture guide. Extremely useful!

Hormone Replacement Therapy - A detailed article telling you all you need to know

HRT - this one is a little easier to digest

That's all folks! Have a great Sunday!

The Little Spanklet that Could

... inflict pain - that's what it could. 

In last week's FFF post I shared a pic of a little spanklet that BIKSS brought over one day, and while we had tried it on my behind, some very thoughtful friends decided that there might be another place it would be MORE SUITED to spanking. 

You can read the exchange for yourself : (I've removed all NON spanklet related portions for easier reading)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ start ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Olivia  - And that little spanker looks like it might be perfect for spanking places other than one's butt. Just saying...

Bleue D'âme - I had that thought too :-)

Me - I love you an' all, but you know these "just saying"s usually end up in some part of me paying the price! Thanks but no thanks! Hrmph. 

(to Bleue - ) BIKSS has just seen the comment and he's all like "she gots da ideas" ... thanks you two. NOT.

BIKSS - It is always good when readers bring up possibilities which I may have overlooked. Thank you both for reminding me of what else that little leather swatch can be used for. Any other ideas?

Me  - Dear Olivia and Bleue - my darlings, now look what you’ve done?! You realise BIKSS almost never comments on this blog right? These comments have clearly kickstarted the gears in his brain.

Olivia - Lol, Dear Fondles, I'm kind of flattered that BIKSS found our idea worth commenting on...and will look forward to seeing if anything comes of this (oh,haha, yeah, pun intended.) And you might be surprised how much you might like a little slap or two from a different perspective. :)

Me - I’ve had spanks on the anterior as well as posterior regions so thats not the issue. The swatch being a stiff bit of leather is my problem! Right now i’m on me period tho - and i’m actually not dying for it to be over, if it means delaying the Spank Encounter of the Swatch Kind.

Olivia - I should have figured that wouldn't be a novelty to you. My introduction to it was with a paint stick, which probably warps my perception Glad it's not on your agenda for now anyhow. <3

Me - Ouch! I was lucky - i got his hand the first time. We’ve also used the crop. In any case, i shall update if swatchspank takes place. :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ end ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

SwatchSpank Took Place

Ouch. Fun. But Ouch. 

The rest of our fun time play time was filled with laughter and chatting - yes, DURING the romping. I noticed that the face slapping came more naturally now. Almost as if it were the most normal thing to do on the planet - smack the face of the person giving you a blowjob. 😒 We ascertained two things - BIKSS is a sadist, and I'm NOT a masochist. Pain doesn't turn me on. Submission does.

Then again, I was the one who reminded him about the spanklet. So maybe I ~am~ a sucker for pain after all!

[*note : please remember to update your blogs with FFF reports if you're participating this week - and come back tomorrow for the weekly recap!]

FFF 24 - The GI Edition

OK, there were no OFFICIAL exercise days last week. I had way too many things to do. Got the new helper settled at mum's, the plumber came to sort out some pipes, finally went for an overdue visit to the hair removal IPL place, painted the lower section of the kitchen tiles, had lunch with the bff and went over to her place to use the kitchen and cook some food for myself, supervised the installation of the new cabinets. Yeah. Way too many things. 

But many errands = many steps

Highest no in a day - 17,787 on Sunday
Total no in the week - 77,028
No of >10k steps days - 3

I promised some links on relieving constipation - here they are. Also, if anyone's interested, things are almost back to normal. I'm not quite exactly on the same schedule and consistency as before, but it's definitely looking better than last week!

I've also managed to put back some of the stuff into my upper cabinets - including my herbals teas!

Hurray for dandelion root tea :)

How various foods affect your poop

The quick list - top 10 fiber-filled foods

A longer list - including NON fiber foods like coffee and milk

The SOLUBLE fiber foods list

(this is the list I need cos I eat way a lot of fiber but sometimes the bulky insoluble fiber overwhelms my gut - too much bulk, not enough water-soluble fiber for moving the bulk.)

WD40 and Duct Tape

BIKSS came round on Monday night to have dinner with me, and after that he very kindly painted a section of wall behind some pipes in the kitchen. Something tiny like the bottom stretch of tiles took me about 3 hours whereas he got done with the darned section in like 15 minutes. Then he hit the storeroom and all in all we were showered and in bed within the hour! (That's the kitchen update...)

Now, some things I'm really good at - decluttering, organising, laundry, packing things and making them fit into spaces you would think too small... but painting is NOT one of those things. BIKSS is way better at it. 

He's also good at DIY-ing around the house. His go-tos are WD40 (to loosen things) and duct tape / superglue (to stop things from being loose). 

It seems this sentiment is shared by many fellas around the world. 

It's a UNIVERSAL FIX apparently. 

Well, women of the world, rejoice! For we TOO have a universal fix - for our blokes when they're feeling out of sorts. 

As we were driving home in the car today I realised that BIKSS was in a grumpy mood. Not at me, per se, but grumpy in general. He had been to see some customers, and some of the visits didn't go well. As in, he got there, and the company had moved, or shut down, or something. They were gone. 

Anyway he felt annoyed that all that time was wasted driving out there, and so, grumpy-pot-BIKSS was my travel companion home this afternoon. 

I suppose it's hard for someone to humour a chatty little girl when the grumpy monster is occupying their headspace, so when he didn't seem to respond in the usual way to my jibing and teasing I guessed something was wrong. (No shit, Sherlock!)

When I realised I couldn't help him come up with a solution to prevent this kind of thing from happening again, I did the only thing I could think of. 

"Here, put your hand on my thigh between my bare legs, Daddy... I'm sure that will make you feel better!"

He smiled and took me up on my offer. :) And just like that the grumpy-pot was gone, replaced by an amused BIKSS. 

And that, ladies, is The Universal Fix. They're HANDYmen by nature. Just go with it. 

*Note of caution: When employing this technique be very careful to accompany the offer with a lighthearted, playful tone, or it could go horribly, horribly wrong. Also, TIMING IS EVERYTHING.

*Warning - some applications could result in hand sliding up towards crotch. If this occurs, do NOT attempt to stop it. Doing so might end up in Spank-Bum-itis. Hand may also do more than just stroke and/or rest on thigh - some users report tapping / slapping / spanking on thigh and crotch. Grabbing, squeezing and pinching are also known side-effects. If these occur, lie back and enjoy the ride!

Suggested Use for the Handy-man Fix : try it when your man is angry, upset, disappointed, nervous, hungry, tired, frustrated... 

(Best applied when wearing a skirt, the shorter, the better.)
