From grandma to nursemaid...

         I have spent the last week  wearing my grandma hat, enjoying special times with a 4 year old who is going on 13, and an almost 2 year old, who i guarantee could make you smile no matter what kind of day you are having.  We did crafts, colored, had dance parties, went to a museum, cooked, and i became familiar with "Paw Patrol" and " Agent Oso".   Of the 7 days, 4 of them were very snowy.....but at least i had great company to stay in and have fun with.

      I am now at my sister's playing nursemaid...i can already tell it will not be as much fun!  Her surgery went very well (thank you all for the good wishes), her recovery consists of good and bad days, which i think is pretty normal for most people.  Part of each day will be spent with my mom and getting done whatever she needs.  It is good for me...for us...to have this time.

     As for Master, He is keeping me in check, long distance style.  I have my 'tool box' of things that remind me that distance does not change my submission.  He also likes to surprise me....Last week, when i asked for permission to go out for lunch one day, the reply was.....salad and water.  He has never told me what to order. Yes, i was surprised!  I figured the salad was non-negotiable, and i do regularly have salad for lunch.  But, i am an iced tea addict.  I drink it with meals and all day.  So i asked for iced tea......i was able to order lemon with my water.  Yesterday, He asked me how i was going to serve Him during the day....a fairly common question.  I do a task for Him each day....a no panty day, some corner time, wearing ankle cuffs all day...it varies.  I was in sort of a hurry when He asked, so i said a no panty day, which is usually acceptable.  Not yesterday, He wanted something else, something more.  As i was trying to come up with something, He told me to make a collar out of yarn or ribbon and wear it all day.  I did manage to find some ribbon, and sent Him a picture of my 'collar'.  We have never discussed collars, so i was surprised at His suggestion  I was also told to wear it to bed, but could remove it....and keep it handy....before my shower today.  

     Now that i am not busy with the grands, i should have more time to check in on all of you....
