#365Gratitude Day 131: This car is gonna drive itself

Things have been really, really good with me and Missy lately.  We feel super connected, and really happy.  One of the reasons why, I think, is because our d/s dynamic has been so good.  I call her "Mommy" a lot, and she's very on top of taking care of me, and managing me, and really seeming to enjoy it.

I made a conscious decision about all that - to not steer.  If our power exchange relationship was a car, it might look like this. 

Note the distinct lack of a steering wheel.

I don't know, maybe I should have just put an image of being in the passenger seat.  

Seriously though, things are great.  She is the boss of me, a lot.  It feels good.  She likes it, and I like it.

#365Gratitude Day 130: No spanking

Lately, I've asked Missy to help me with my getting back in shape.  I track my calories and exercise in a smartphone app that mails me a report each Monday morning, telling how I did the week before.  Every Monday I send that along to Missy, to whom I'm accountable.  

The past several weeks, I didn't do so hot.  Either I really goofed up the calories, or I didn't exercise enough, and thus later that evening, or in a day or so following, depending on time, I've gotten spanked or some other punishment, to help me stay on track.

Not this week.  I had a banner week, lots of exercise, under budget all but one day.  No spanking for me this week.

I found a new place to run, a wildlife refuge not too far from my house.  It's beautiful and desolate, and near water.  I ran there last Saturday, and it was gorgeous.

#365Gratitude Day 128: Under budget

Learning to keep on top of my calorie budget again has been hard, but I'm getting it.  It feels good, too!.

Missy does sweet little things for me often.  Like this:
