Happy New Year 2013!

We had a wonderful New Year's Eve celebration with old friends last night, and we have yet to recover.  Starman is slumbering peacefully on the sofa and listening to the football at the same time!  I am trying to catch up with good wishes for everyone.

I started my first day of the New Year with a spanking!  Okay, so it was after bringing Starman his usual cup of Yorkshire tea to bed, and commiserating with him about his 'slight' hangover.  And it was definitely of the fun variety!  But why, oh why did I ever introduce him to that horrid little stupid wooden kitchen utensil?!!  It's all he ever thinks of!!  

I thought, rather romantically, that he was going to use his hand.  And then he suddenly changed his mind and said "Go fetch something from the drawer."  I looked longingly at my lovely pink leather paddle.  But being the good TIH that I am trying to become, I said "Maybe you better decide.  I don't think I'm meant to am I?  The HOH usually stipulates with what, how hard and for how long."  Am I crazy or what?!!

"Okay."  He thought for a bit.  Without anything to cover my dignity I was getting chilly.  "Bring me the wooden spoon thing."  My heart sank.  But I resolved to do as I was told.  Ugh!  Fool that I am!  

So I went back over his knee and he started right in there snapping it smartly down on my poor pale cheeks.  And yes, I did say "Ow!" more or less immediately!  

But it gets worse.  Much worse.

Before Christmas I bought some Pina Colada flavoured lube.  It's one of my tasks, and he always ensures I remember to get several flavours.  It's hilarious to use and heaven knows why we were too inhibited to use such a product when we were much younger!  Anyhow, I digress.

He liberally smeared the stuff over my butt cheeks!  Yes, you lot, you know exactly what I am going to say next!  I had no idea at all just how much more stingy it can be to be spanked with a wooden paddle on a wet bottom!!!   It's a killer!  And lube isn't like water; it doesn't dry up quickly.  It stays!  

My lovely fun spanking turned into an assault course!  Starman just kept playing - a few sharp spanks, then a bit of rubbing which often entailed just a little more lube, then some real crackers, then another rub, then one swat here, and one swat there.  

I positively glowed!  And in a "I'm not going to be able to keep still one more minute", wriggly sort of a way!

Luckily he eventually let me up.  The sting slowly retreated and we resumed our play without the dratted paddle.  And strangely, the cherry redness disappeared by the time we had had our breakfast; and no bruising at all.  Starman is definitely getting used to the process of spanking!  

I did, however, actually respectfully suggest we might keep the butter paddle for maintenance or more serious transgressions.  He just chuckled!

And now to kick off 2013....    (Roll of drums!!!)

I would love to know what you all look like out there!  I know this isn't always possible - we all have to be careful.    The one lady I do know is simply beautiful!  I am very envious of her hair for a start...  

But what I am asking you to do is this.

If you had to compare yourself to a well-known film star, person on TV, or any other personality, who would you most resemble?  

Forget the age or shape.  Don't even go there!  But who do you most look like?!!

I'll start you all off - 

I have shortish blonde hair and sea-green eyes.  And dimples.  My hair used to be long until I redesigned myself two years ago.  I am tall (ish) and not quite as slim as I would like to be, but average for my age.  I'm told that I most resemble another lady of the same age as I am. Meryl Streep.  (I personally think she is wonderful and gorgeous and I so wish.....)

My Starman is wonderful for his age.  Still handsome and dark-eyed; and in my opinion has very few lines although his hair is now mostly grey.  If I had to pick someone to compare him to I'd say he looks very similar to Pierce Brosnan.  Truly.  (Oh I know, I am very, very, very lucky!!)  

So who are you like?!!  I've longing to know so I can imagine who I'm talking to next time I comment on your blogs.  

Your friend, Ami

Hugs and Blessings!
