Assignment submitted one week early.
Course credit application submitted finally, after procrastinating for months.
Not bad for someone who, four weeks ago, had only just found out that term had already begun π
I'm never getting french polish on my toenails again. Whenever I go away from my neutrals, I'm always disappointed.
Can't wait for my next pedicure to sort it out.
These are the kinds of conversations I'm having on a weekly, and sometimes daily, basis with my partner as we navigate FLR, and the possibility of non-monogamy.
I aim to always be as respectful as possible whilst also staying true to my desires.
Explained to my partner tonight that kink has become more important to me since becoming a parent, to reclaim my identity as a woman. It felt like a weight off my shoulders.

I wanted a sub-delivered mid-week Messina delivery.
I got a sub-delivered end of the week Messina delivery. I'm ok with that.
Not interested in the specials this week so he got my favourite Super Dulce De Leche π€€ Very happy. π¨

Do better.
