I dipped my toe into the water recently by writing a story for PK's Fantasy Friday, which was awesome and decided to take a further plunge to see how it feels. I have been hiding and lurking for nearly two years, my interest started again after reading fifty shades and blogs.
My wonderful husband and I have been married for over 35 years with adult children and lot of grandies. I am Lindy and I will call my husband Bear. Life has been pretty kind to us most of the time although we have had our ups and downs like any other couple. When we first became engaged we partook in a bit of TTWD which went by the wayside once the children came along. Bear was always working afternoon or night shift, so our only real time together was on weekends. Once our children were old enough, we started having special date nights on Saturdays so we could reconnect. We have become each others best friend and soul mate. Our children left home but appeared we had revolving doors as they all kept coming back again and again to live for different reasons. We eventually became empty nesters though.
Life went along smoothly, then Bear retired and we made the BIG move to a little seaside, country town. After a visit from our daughter in law where she commented on fifty shades being disgusting I was tempted to read it as you do, and of course enjoyed it. It re-ignited our venture into TTWD and put a new spark in our lives. We don't actually have rules to follow except I am supposed to keep active and healthy to prevent one of my auto-immune diseases from deteriorating. So guess we mainly partake in fun spankings as Bear says I am a good girl all the time. Until I read everyone else's blogs and discussed them with Bear we hid the fact we like this lifestyle and thought there must have been something wrong with us. So glad to finally realise there are other couples out in this world who also enjoy TTWD and in particular other couples around our age. Bear is still a bit hesitant about it all and says it is just between us. Which I agree as would never dream of telling our family or friends.
There are heaps of things I would like to eventually ask and get other bloggers opinions. Will wait though for the appropriate time. Well think I will finish up now, as I don't want to bore you any further. Hope to become friends with you all and keep in touch.
hugs Lindy from Australia

Lindy, Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. This is definite the place to asks questions and get the opinions of others. We all do TTWD differently and are at different places in our journey but most of us are really enjoying our trip.

Hi Lindy, nice to meet you. Is Bear a fan of cricket - dare I mention the Ashes?
ReplyDeleteI'd no idea there were so many TTWDers out there until I discovered blogs.
Hi DelFonte, Nice to meet you also. No Bear is into cycling and swimming. He says he doesn't follow football.l Although when my team and his family team played against each other in the grand final one year, he was certainly vocal in barracking for the other team.
DeleteIt is amazing to see so many others on these blogs.
