        i guess i really did run out of words.  i've been exploring art a lot more though, and fell into a passable book, so not all was wasted time.  And Himself and i have settled into this lovely companionable-ness that involves lots of hugs and great food - and not a whole lot of Ds.  So while i believe the first part of that sentence is absolutely perfect and right for us and i wouldn't have it any other way - when maintaining a submissive journal, i get hung up on the idea that i'm supposed to record what we are doing in that arena.  Forgetting of course that all the best bits need to be recorded to.  

      Takes me a bit to remember that - heh.  And then i do.  And then i'm back here.   :-)

      One of these days i might even get brave and take the robe off.  i sometimes wonder why i'm prudish about my own body, yet have absolutely no trouble seeing anyone else naked.  In fact, when they show shyness, i am often the first one to quote "hey, it's only parts!"  

      Painting has been fun lately.  Last month (27th) the instructor had an open house and let everyone show up with their family to see our work.  THAT was very bizarre.  And what was even more bizarre was having people make comments and express pleasure in seeing what i've done.  

      This was the one that they seemed to like best, even though she's not done yet:    wpe18.jpg (26462 bytes)

      i think it was a big confidence booster though.  i'm such a needy approval hound, that people liking my stuff helped to validate 'me'.  i wonder if that's part of the submissive nature - the need for reassurance.  Or just a leftover from the days when i was told i wasn't any good.

      Last weekend's efforts weren't quite so successful *s*.  i started out trying to paint a window, discovered things weren't going well ... so opted for an abstract (in hopes of rescuing the paint.)  Even my son thinks this one is too wierd.

       He did however like the pear - says it reminds him of a bum.  Heh.
