Life in the Valley of the Sun

We are adjusting quite nicely to life here in the Valley of the Sun. Still looking to meet others, which is a slow process but we are busy and life is starting to round into our new routine.

I am back to cleaning and dressing while doing so. She is starting to gain her dominant ways and we are still unpacking boxes.

Last night we hung some pictures and Mistress was looking thru a box for some more when she proclaimed, "I found my riding crop."

At that point I realized I should be on my best behavior so she wasn't inclined to give it a try.

As it turned out I escaped getting laid over the bed but as things go more and more back to normal it probably won't be long. Luckily yesterday before she got home I got all the ironing and laundry done. She was pleased with that.

All this got me thinking about others. Those times where the FLR isn't exciting as it once was or things in life get in the way of how you want things to be at home. Be patient. Be the tortoise not the hare. Sometimes its not a move but a life challenge or job stress that can effect the things you want at home. Allow them to pass and then allow a little more time. Just because the stress is gone it doesn't mean the FLR will continue immediately as if nothing happened. I think sometimes the sub men get impatient at these times and need to allow the partner to regain her footing so to speak. To get back to things in her own time and way. These last few months have proven that to me. With time and patience things will once again be exciting and new. Even if its a little different.

Life is settling finally.

While the move has been so whirlwind that many of the things that we normally accustomed to doing in our relationship have temporarily been put to the side. Slowly things are going back to our usual (new usual) patterns.

This is good for both of us, gives us a sense of comfort and structure. The one thing I will admit is when things are so crazy, life, while not bad, doesn't feel the same.

Our normal winter routine is going to be vastly different. Obviously outdoor activities and staying active are going to be at an all time high here in the Valley. The good news is that is great for our health and happiness, the drawback will be making sure things stay where they are supposed to be, cleaning house, following her rules and whatever else that might apply to.

Up in Michigan things were different depending on the season, in the summer our FLR was a bit looser due to activities, living here will be like summer all year long, well except for the 3 months of pure hell called June, July and August where barbecuing simply means tossing your steak on the sidewalk and watching it sizzle.

In time we will get to a new routine, a different routine and maybe a bit modified but in time we will become relaxed and at ease with the new normal. That is starting to happen now. Its different but a bit the same, its new but at the same time comfortable and getting better each day.

One thing that is different is friends, we do not know anyone around here, in time that will change but for now its just the two of us. Getting dropped into a new city and finding new friends isn't the quickest process and it will take time but I guess that gives us time to settle into our new routines.

Finally Relocated

Last post I was letting everyone know about a possible move.

Well it happened and its now complete. What a whirlwind the last couple of months has been but things are settling down now.

We are now in the Valley of the Sun, Phoenix Arizona and we love it here.

Things are different, weather, topography, the way people here can't drive well. Its all different but a good different.

Now its time to settle in, regain our FLR and continue our journey thru life. Don't really know anyone here yet but there is plenty of time for that.

Maybe I should change my name to sub hub from Phx. Wait that is already taken. LOL.

Well my posts will be more regular now that things are back to some sort of normal.

Looking forward to seeing what everyone has been up to lately.
