A Quickie

Yes, I know what some of you are thinking, tsk,tsk! 

A "quickie" romp in the hay? No.

A "quickie" for him?  No.

A "quickie" spankin'? No, although I have had a few of those lately.  You know the "straighten up or else" swats. 

A "quickie" post? yes. 

I've been doing some serious thinking about ttwd and how we as a couple define it.  So the best way i knew how to start that process was to write about it.  The problem is the post isn't finished and it continues to grow.  Maybe eventually I'll be able to post part of it but in the mean time I just wanted to pop in and say things are going quite well.  We've had several lengthy discussions as well as "quickies" since he read my last post and I have been pleasantly surprised with the insight I am getting from these discussions.  Tonight is maintenance and even though he has had an extremely stressful week, he reminded me this morning of our "appointment" tonight.  I received a sweet call to check on me while I was traveling today and received a strong-armed hug from him when he got home.  I think there is hope for ttwd and it seems communication is the key.

  1. This is such a cute post - how often do we start working on one, only to see it morph and grow and then need proofing and editing and it keeps on growing, lol! I look forward to reading the finished product.

    Hope you have a great evening with your sweetie!

    1. Thanks, Cali. It is definitely growing into possibly a 3 post series-crazy isn't it? We had an amazing evening, I'm feeling very, ummm...maintained. ;)

  2. Hey honey :)

    Nice post, I'm glad things are going well. Slow and steady and Han in hand is the way forward :)

    Can't wait to read your other post, as and when it's finished :) I always have a few on the go and tweak here and there and don't always come round to publishing them. But it's good for the mind and soul :)

    Hope you had a good reconnection last night :)

    Hugs x

    1. Thanks Missy, your post on what is submission-started this lenghty post I'm working on so...I guess I can blame you. lol The more I write the bigger it gets- I just had to step away from it for a day or so and I'll get back to it today with some new perspective. It may end up being one of those I'll hold onto for a while.
      We did have a wonderful evening, despite his stressful week. One of the best reconnects we've had, thus far. :)

  3. Sweet post :) I'm so glad things are going well. You are so right about communication being the key.

    I look forward to reading your post when finished. It's a a great exercise to reflect on how we started, how far we have come and what ttwd means for us isn't it? Perhaps if it keeps growing on you, you could do a couple or a series of posts?

    Hugs,
    Roz

  4. Thanks Roz, I think it has morphed into some sort of series of posts, but I also needed to step away from it and come back with a new view point. Communication is definitely the key in any relationship but even more so with ttwd. :)

  5. Ahhhhhhhhhh yes the 'C' word. Hard to deal with it sometimes, but you certainly can't live without it!

    I will join in with the chorus and say, happy to hear the happiness in your post~!

    1. Thanks, Willie. We're still working on it, day by day. We had a great reconnect then the next day I had a flashback to the way things went before ttwd-frustrating but we're getting there.
