A Vow

By -
This will be supa short.  I've got to go to bed...back to school hours are kicking my butt.  Plus, I'm older now and less resilient to lack of sleep.

I attended a class about blogging.

I vow to write here more often.
I vow to start a professional blog...not linked to this one because I vent (and curse) here and that's just not professional.
I vow to be honest as I dare in an effort to be relevant and raw.

It's a rough world out here for women, especially single middle-aged women and you deserve the validation of the transparent truth.

She wakes

By -
She wakes from the animated , sexy dream about him again. He's one of two men she's ever dreamt about like that. The dreams come so easily, so unexpectedly. They set her mind to wondering "what if" thoughts. She doesn't want to think "what if" thoughts about him; especially not him. Telling herself she won't be like all the other women in his life...not the ones who raped his trust, and not the foolish ones who chase him. She loves him. He loves her. They are friends. Just friends. Friends who have an inappropriate amount of sexual tension between them. He was so animated and funny and uninhibited, which made him nearly irresistible. He danced naked in front of her. Not a serious, seductive male stripper kind of dance. He danced a playful, teasing dance, wagging his naked penis at her, enticing her to do fun things to it. She laughed. She fought to resist. She felt pulled towards his dancing naked penis as if it were the negatively ...

Becoming an Early Riser 015

By -
I'd say by now, in spite of the occasional sleep-ins, that I am officially "trained" in the brain to wake before dawn...wake, not rise.  I can go back to sleep, especially if I was awake until midnight.  Even when I manage to sleep beyond that, I still wake and rise with the light of day, almost regardless of what time I went to bed....lamps not so much, though I have the timer on one to pop on at 5:30, except on holidays and weekends.   Thus, my sleep-in days are still early by some standards, rising between 7 and 8 a.m. depending on the season and when the sun rises. As I've stated in previous posts, I am not by nature a "pre-dawn" early riser, but I would say I am now at middle-age, an early riser.  I no longer sleep until noon.  My body won't let me and my ocular nerves sense the light of the sun beaming against the back of my light blue curtains covering my Northeast facing bedroom windows as it makes its way up and over the horizon.  Were I in a...

Prelude

By -
For quite some time now I've wanted to write a column addressing the issues that I, as a single middle-aged woman, face. Having no more writing experience than being a life-long journal keeper and a couple of college journalism courses, I make no claims that what you will read is going to polished or professional. What you will find, if I meet my goal, is candor and honesty...an unveiled attempt at exposing the joys and frustrations that I, and women of a certain age like me, face day in and day out as we journey through these murky middle-aged waters alone. Alone for a whatever reason.... separation, divorce, death, never having found the one , a few by choice but pretty much all of us just damn unlucky in love. It is my sincere hope that within these pages, you the reader, will find comfort, enlightenment, and humor. Abadoning pretense and form, I will attempt to communicate from my perspective and my life experiences, as well as those of the women I know, that happen to plague ...
