Bra Hook

We've all been there right? In the middle of some sexy time and everything is working well then bam, something either funny happens or doesn't go quite to plan and the moment is either lost, or very nearly lost.

I'm sure it's happened to you, at least once...right? Anyway, I have a little story to share to give you a laugh at our expense.

Last Friday having finished work early for the year Rick and I decided to celebrate by having a bit of afternoon bedroom fun. Rick was also in a dominant mood, which was awesome as if you have read here for a while you know ttwd for us is restricted to occasional bedroom fun. I, on the other hand wasn't feeling exactly submissive to begin with and when told to get on my knees said "No". I know, not great form. I was told it was not a request and quickly got to my knees and, um, went to work. All the while Rick whispering domly things in my ear.

After a while he halted proceedings, stood me up and proceeded to unhook and remove my bra making a show of flinging it out of the way. Only it landed on his nicely erect member, literally hanging off it by the strap. We both ended up in fits of laughter, I can't stop laughing even now as I write. Rick has joked previously about being able to hang things like his towel off it but I think this takes the cake.

Fortunately we recovered quickly and continued proceedings with Rick regaining his domly mojo. Strangely enough, I have been sore in the groin and thigh area since and think I pulled a muscle. Coincidence?

Rick has been awesome helping me with things like getting in and out of the car, going up and down steps etc. I said to him today "you're so good to me" to which he replied "sometimes" with a wicked gleam in his eye lol. I really love the fun side to ttwd and the fun conversations we have.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas day celebrating with family and friends, we certainly did. Thank you so much for your lovely messages and holiday greetings on my previous post. I hope you will forgive me for the global reply, it's not like me usually to not reply to individual comments.

Merry Christmas!


Wow, I can't believe Christmas is almost here! Where has the year gone? It has certainly been a whirlwind!

Christmas for us also means summer, yippee! Hopefully the weather is slowly catching up to that fact! We are both looking forward to a nice break over most of January followed by traveling round the country to see the Boss late February. So excited!

Rick and I would like to wish all our friends in this very special corner of blogland a very Merry Christmas. We hope you have a wonderful time celebrating with family and friends. Wishing you all a safe and enjoyable holiday season and if you are traveling, travel safe.

Thank you all so much for your wonderful support throughout the year, I can't tell you how much it means.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all, merry holiday spanks :)

Jingle bells, jingle bells...

Rick Answers

I love this meme posted by Lilli. One Rick has to answer instead of me lol and I thought it would be fun to find out what his answers would be.

A quick update first though. After having been back at work and in the building for a week we have now been evacuated again until repair work has been completed, which we have been told will be at least two weeks. We have staff meetings on Wednesday to provide more detail and are waiting to find out what plans will be put in place until we are back in the building, such as working out of another office etc.

While the time off is nice, it's also a bit unsettling and strange at the same time.

Thank You Blogland!

As most of you know we were struck with a severe magnitude 7.5 eahquake in the early hours of Monday morning. Since then I have received numerous emails from blog friends checking in and sending positive thoughts, best wishes and prayers.  Dear sweet Jan also put up a post.  I cried, in a good way :) when I read it.

I just want to say a huge thank you to Jan and to all of you who have been in contact.  I am deeply humbled, overwhelmed and once again reminded just how wonderful this community is.  I can't express how much it means to have your support at a time like this.

Things are slowly returning to normal...well semi normal but are not being helped now by torrential rain and strong winds to hamper the clean up process and disrupt transport again. Weather and slip related this time.

Fortunately, I  don't have to go anywhere today as work is once again closed to enable clean up.  We should be back to normal transmission tomorrow, depending on weather and transport I guess.

Rick and I are ok and fortunately haven't suffered any damage at home, but is has been a very scary couple of days and I am still feeling a little unsettled in the knowledge that the after shocks are continuing. Fortunately for me I haven't felt any in a while now...touch wood! They were pretty constant immediately following the main shock.

Thank you so much blogland. You are awesome ! :)

Hello blogland!

Hello everyone !  You can pick yourselves up off the floor now, yes it's me lol.

Gosh, it's been so long, waay too long! I'm sorry I have been awol, I have continued to read and comment though. Some of you have been asking and gently prodding me to post...Thank you :) I suppose some might say I should be spanked for neglecting the blog. Sadly, there is little chance of that happening.

I don't have much excuse except life taking over and the fact that writing posts on a tablet is just painful. That, coupled with not knowing what to say given the lack of ttwd here, which has been the case for some time now.

Where to start? I  can't believe how quickly this year is flying by! As some of you know, the year began with Rick recovering from major heart surgery then as soon as he recovered I ended up very ill from a viral infection which took almost two months to recover.

We can't believe it is almost a year since Rick's surgery. Wow! He is doing fantastic and although he has basically recovered the body is continuing to heal and he still has some discomfort. Did I mention his impressive scars? Oh and he occasionally sets off shop metal detectors. Fun!

There have been changes for both of us on the work front too with more to come. With everything that's gone on this year we are both more than happy at the moment to just 'be' and enjoy each other. There have been the odd "do you want it back?", "I don't know, do you?" conversations though. We have continued to have some light spanky action for fun on occasion. I could definitely do with more of that! But, you know, I'm really not sure about the rest, I'm conflicted. Part of me thinks I want it back and part of me doesn't. Perhaps because it has been so long.

In other news, long time readers may recall that Rick is a huge Bruce Springsteen fan and that we were able to see him here in gud ole NZ a couple of years ago. It was something we never thought would happen and a dream come true. The fantastic news is that he and the band are coming back our way next February. Woohoo! The only thing is, there will be two concerts in two different cities and neither of them our city. One of them happens to be Rick's home city though which is cool. We are going to go to both and have our tickets because, wrll, did I mention Rick is a huge fan? lol. It's going to be manic traveling to two different cities within a few days of each other but well worth it.

On the family front Mum and Dad are continuing to cope extremely well with Mum's dementia. I honestly don't know sometimes how Dad does it day in day out. It can be hard and draining some times just visiting. It's funny, each visit is different. Good days and not so good days. Mum had her birthday fairly recently and it wasn't a good day for her. Dad commented as such and she replied it's the shock of turning 76 lol. Maybe it wasn't such a bad day after all!

We are now in spring here. Well supposedly. The weather is quite fickle with overall mild temperatures but showrrs and rain off and on and awful winds.

We wait with baited breath for the outcome of the US Presidential election this week which will be Wednesday here.

I see Love our Lurkers day is coming up. I guess you could say anyone who has visited here over the last few months is a lurker, since there hasn't been anything to comment on. I always enjoy this event. Not sure yet if I will post, but will definitely enjoy visiting everyone.




Hope you are all doing well.

About Time!

Hi everyone,

Gosh, I don't know where to start, I'm sorry I haven't posted in so long. We have had a lot going on since last November. It's fair to say it's been a bizarre and difficult year so far. I'm definitely ready for things to settle down and for some normalcy.

Long weekend for us so while I had some time I wanted to connect with my blog friends. I also wanted to say a very overdue and heartfelt thank you to those of you who have been in contact with me over the last few months and who have offered us such wonderful support. This community really is amazing and the friendships made here go much deeper than our shared interest in ttwd. I am so sorry that I have taken so long to thank you all.

Rick is doing fantastically well and is fully recovered from his surgery last November. He is a different man now and has lost quite a bit of weight during his recovery. He is so happy about that and is determined to keep it that way and is doing a lot of walking and eating healthier. We are now in competition with each other lol.

I would have thought Rick's surgery and recovery were enough but it seems life hadn't quite finished with us. We both went back to work at the beginning of February looking forward to getting back to some normalcy. I only lasted a week then ended up off work for a month sick. It seems I had a virus which badly affected my liver. I had no energy and somehow lost coordination and was very unstable on my feet was constantly exhausted.  I also lost the ability to communicate clearly. Oh, and I lost weight, most of which I have since re-gained lol. It was a scary time wondering, and worrying about what was wrong. It was Rick's turn to worry about me. He has joked about me getting my own back lol.

My blood levels are still not quite back to normal, but almost there and I am back to my old self.

To cap things off I returned to work only to return to find out I was being moved, which added to the stress levels.

Ttwd wise, as most of you know, we haven't practiced ttwd for a long time now. Ttwd did bring many benefits to our relationship though, such as greater communication, more intimacy and a greater feeling of connection and overall how we interact.

I'm happy to say that although Rick and Rozzi land has been devoid of ttwd and any spanking action, many of the benefits it brought to our relationship have remained. Yes, there may not be much kink happening, but the important  (IMHO) aspects of it have remained.

Having said the above, I did receive a light, fun spanking last weekend :)  It was definitely a spanking of the fun kind and Rick took it easy given I hadn't been spanked in so long. I commented on the old familiar tingling, stinging feeling I hadn't felt in so long and Rick commented on enjoying the old familiar sight of a red bottom lol. Rick found his Dom side again in other ways too :)

I don't really see this as a return to ttwd, more of a spur of the moment thing, but I'm not complaining :)

I guess that catches you up on what's been going on here. Thank you so much again for your wonderful support, it means so much. I hope this post finds you all well.
