Happy New Year!!!

I sincerely hope that each and everyone of you had the best Christmas ever.

Things are going along smoothly here. The offspring are all home so I'm having fun feeding them and going shopping and other fun stuff. Tonight though Adam and I are taking a night to ourselves. We're going to dinner. Not sure yet where we'll go but probably our favorite Italian spot. After that we're going......

Shopping.

I actually do not like shopping however, I'm so very limited on clothes right now and there's a good sale going on today at Kohl's. And since I have a couple hundred bucks burning a hole in my pocket Adam is taking me to look for a few new things for work.

I gotta tell you... this whole weight loss thing is amazing. Would you believe I've even gone down a show size? I've been a size nine since I was about 13 but these days a nine falls off my foot. Today I bought a pair of size eights. Okay so call me stupid. It's taken me quite a while to figure out that it is okay to buy smaller shoes if that's what it takes for them to fit right.

As for clothes, I recently bought two pairs of jeans... SIZE TEN. Ten!!! Can you believe it? I'm in shock. I can't imagine going down any further... I mean, folks, listen to me here. I was in a size 26. 3X. HUGE. And now? I psychologically can't adapt to buying smaller clothes. For instance, I picked out a pair of flannel pj's the other day. (Leave me alone, it's COLD here) I had a size 1X in my hands. My family pitched a fit and made me buy a plain old large. I didn't think they'd fit. I figured I'd have to wait till I drop another 20 or so pounds. Ha! I wore them that same night. They fit great.

Sooooo... I'm still sifting and sorting clothes. I'm finally to the point that if it's too big, I'm okay with never wearing it again. And if I'm never wearing it again then there is absolutely no point hanging on to it, right?

Thus, Adam's taking me shopping. I have no clothes and what I do have my kids make fun of or find some reason to not like them. Christmas Eve ... my kids dressed me for church. I let them. They have good taste. I did wear a shirt that is my own but mostly everything else I wore that night belonged to offspring #1. Oh wait. I did wear my own underwear.

So anyhow, I'm weighing in a day early this week but figure that's okay because I didn't update the ticker last week .... mostly because I hadn't lost. I'm seeing a definite pattern here. I don't lose much at all for about two weeks then I drop 5-8 pounds like right now. Then I go through 2 weeks again of nothing. It's okay. I'm happy with it... and of course that's easy to say now when I've lost a bit every day for 3 straight days now.

Anyhow... Happy New Year!!! I hope it's a good one for all of us!!!

This One's for Adam

Merry Christmas!!!

Nothing New

Wow!

You're still here!!!

I'm so glad but I do have to wonder "why?"

I mean there haven't been many posts lately but there's a good reason for that.

I've had NOTHING to write about.

Okay, that's not entirely true. I can always find SOMETHING to write about but there have been no spankings... no sex.... no harassing my twin. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch.

I don't know what the problem is. My libido is on hiatus. I know that. I just don't know why or how to get it back.

Now's not a good time anyhow since all the kids are in for the holidays. It's good to have them here even though offspring #3 sprained her ankle night before last. She's on crutches. Hopefully she'll be back to normal in no time. She's handling it well though.

I don't even have much weight loss news. I am trying to watch it during the holidays especially now that I'm able to eat more than I could in the beginning. I've been walking a lot and trying to stay out of the sugar loaded stuff that's in my house.

Anyhow, I'm glad you're here still. I'm not giving up on this blog or my spanking life.

Hang in there with me!! Things have GOT to improve.

Happy Birthday, PK

Today - December 15th - is my twin's birthday.

Most of you know the story as to how we became known as "the twins" but for those of you who might not, please allow me to fill you in.

We're going on two years now. We first met here in this world of spanko blogs. PK was known as Elis back then.

She discovered my brand new blog and began leaving comments. Those were soon followed by a few emails. After that, well... as they say the rest is history.

And in case you might be wondering... PK? That stands for Pissed Kitty. Hehehe.

We have much in common... same middle name... happy marriages.... children we'd lay our lives down for...we even work in the exact same occupation and - oh, yeah - we share a love for spanking. It's no wonder we hit it off with so much in common.

It's more than that though.

We didn't just stop here on the internet. We exchanged phone numbers and began calling one another. And then... well when Adam and I took a trip this past summer we put PK on the itinerary.

When we met face to face all fears of "will we get along so well in person" disappeared. By then we'd known each other nearly a year. That meeting was awesome. We had a blast. We talked about everything. Anything. Nothing.

I think the four of us - PK and Nick, Adam and myself - knew after that meeting that it was/is indeed a very special friendship. The likes of which we don't often come across in our lives. We had such a good time that first meeting that we've gotten together two more times since and hope to get together many more times in the future.

And now? PK and I refer to one another as "best friends."

Go ahead, call us sophomoric. We don't care. We've waited all our lives for a best friend... for a friendship like we've found in one another. Okay so in reality Adam's my best friend and Nick is hers. We know that. We respect that. We support one another in that.... and THAT is what makes us call one another "best" because we each know exactly what that means.

And for those who don't get it... that's okay. It's a twin thing. You wouldn't understand... unless of course you, too, have a "twin."

So anyhow, on this day - my twin's birthday - I hope you'll stop by her blog and wish her a happy birthday. Heck, if you want, we can have a party there! I'll bet Grace will bring the Cheetoh's, yes?

Oh, and one more thing... I don't think I've quite caught her in the weight loss area. I'm close... very close. I feel so darned good these days though that honestly, it just doesn't matter. I bow to her weight loss. She's worked twice as hard as I have for every pound she's lost. My own loss has slowed way down this past month or so. That's okay. I still hope to lose another 25 or so pounds but I'm fine just the way I am.

Who wouldn't be fine?

I feel great!!

Adam loves me.

My kids love me.

My dog thinks I walk on water.

And... I've got the best friend in the world to wish a happy birthday to today!!

Happy Birthday Twin!! I love you!!

Not Much New

Just wanted to update the ticker real quick. It was absolutely STUCK for nearly 2 weeks. Finally though on Wednesday I dropped a pound. Yesterday? Another pound. And this morning? Yet ANOTHER pound!!

Some of you might think a size 12 jeans is horribly large however I was thrilled on Thursday evening to fit into a size 12 for the first time EVER. Okay well maybe it wasn't the first time ever BUT I remember entering high school in a 14 and leaving in a 16 and it only went up from there. As a result, a size 12 is the most amazing thing to ever happen to me.

And I'm STILL losing!! That's the best part!!!

Nothing much exciting to report in my world. We're gearing up for the holidays. I think today I'm going to start baking. I'm cutting back though this year. My family begs me every year to not bake so much.

This year? I'm listening.

I'm only doing 4 kinds of cookies and I'm not doing triple batches. Then I'm making pumpkin bread and rum cake.

That's it. I used to do about 12 kinds of cookies and 4 kinds of breads. And I made double and triple batches of EVERYTHING. This is a stretch for me. I'll really have to restrain myself. I think it will be okay because I'm entering it with a plan. I just hope I don't start to twitch when I'm all done and feeling like I should make more!!
