What frightens me most

There is one thing that truly frightens me, an incomprehensible paralyzing fear, and that is that Mr H will leave me.There have been many things (fears) in my life that have given me sleepless nights. Some have passed with time, some rear their heads time and again. Spiders It’s a cliche right? To be frightened by spiders… I mean in a silly, heart pounding, panic sort of way. Once I see the thing I can’t take my eyes off it, because the only thing more …

Blah

You ever had those days when you just feel blah, not sad, not happy, you can’t put your finger on it but you’re just not quite yourself? That’s how I feel at the moment. Today I had my botox redone.  I just have the deep frown line between my eyes treated. A bonus I discovered is that it reduces the number of migraines I get. But, because I had this done, I had to go out after work. As a result I was late home, …

selfie

But first, let me take a selfie..

The prompt this week for F4FT is the selfie…. a modern phenomenon (at least I think so) as before the age of front facing cameras (and camera phones) a selfie was a virtual impossibility! With a traditional camera, (you know the ones with a film inside not a memory card??) trying to take a photo of yourself meant guessing if you were in frame and then waiting until it was developed to see if you were successful. More often than not you weren’t… I have …

An everyday bra

Or is that a bra for everyday? @TheKnickerFairy on Twitter is a lovely lady who is an Anne Summers sales consultant. She sells via her twitter account and offers brilliant service and advice! I’ve bought some lovely things from her that Mr H has picked and I have to say I love him taking an interest in my underwear. He picks the set I wear each day and it’s one of the rules that I have to have a matching set on each day. There’s been …

Sexy Cardigan?

This morning I went downstairs to find my work clothes as I hadn’t put them away after washing them at the weekend.  I put my cardigan over my new bra and panties set and when I walked into the kitchen where MrH was making drinks he paused for a moment and admired the view… The look on his face has made me smile all day… Who would have thought a cardigan could be so sexy??

Gaslighting

I didn’t think I’d ever been a victim of gaslighting, but after reading the post by Swirling Fire and looking at the image included (below) I realised I had actually been a victim of this 3 times…. The First Time The first time… that started when I was a child. With my mum and stepdad. To this day I say “sorry” for everything. If you bump into me, I say sorry. If you get angry, at anything, I say sorry. If you are tired, I …

The Erotic Journal Challenge 12: Sexy

This is something I battle with on a daily basis, feeling sexy. Naked I don’t often feel sexy. I see stretch marks and cellulite. I see lumps and a lack of symmetry. I see surgical scars. What makes me feel sexy? In lingerie, sometimes, it depends on where my head is at. If I’m down all I see are lumps and bumps. Other times I see a curvaceous woman that MrH loves. The angle and filters help of course. Fully clothed I often feel most …

Feeling more myself

It’s nearing the end of February and I can’t quite believe how fast this year is going. We’ve made plans to go to a rope workshop which seemed months away and is now only weeks away! We have bought tickets to go to the bike show in Manchester and have started making a list of places to visit on a weekend on our bikes. We had a brilliant long weekend and despite not sleeping particularly well it was thoroughly enjoyable. I also had my hair …

Sunday Snuggle

Sunday mornings are our lazy mornings. We don’t have any alarms to wake us up. We don’t have anywhere to be. I love Sundays for this reason. We get to snuggle. There’s a line I love from the Twighlight Breaking dawn movie.  It wasn’t in the books, but in this case I don’t mind the addition. “It’s an extraordinary thing to meet someone who you can bare your soul to and accept you for what you are.” Edward Cullen wedding speech from Twilight Breaking Dawn pt1 …

The knicker fairy delivers

There is a lovely Ann Summers rep I know and Mr H and I order lingerie from her. As there is a sale on we ordered two new sets. They arrived today and they are lovely, but as I look pictures to show Mr H I was struck by negative thoughts. Serious negative thoughts. Now I know, I have body image issues. They stem back to my adolescence and a lack of good parental encouragement. I was never told I was pretty, or clever. I …
