Bedroom Revision

My grandmother’s mirror, which used to languish in the bathroom and now hangs on the side wall of my bedroom, is placed such that it reflects the face of the man fucking me doggie style.

I didn’t intend for this to happen but I’m certainly not complaining.

The best part? I can glance up and see his face but not see my own. While I’d prefer it if I could see his face and at the same time spare him the sight of my own ridiculous orgasmic contortions, I acknowledge that this violates a basic law of physics. I do prefer strict obedience to all physical laws within the confines of my bedroom.

When I’m not gettin’ jiggy in my new bed, I’m enjoying long delicious hours of unblemished sleep in it. As per your advice, I purchased the best mattress set I could afford and paired it with an ultra-sturdy reinforced bed frame.

I hung something artsy on the wall above the head of the bed in lieu of a headboard. Unfortunately, I didn’t expect for my choice to become the kitties’ favorite toy; but as small strings, the children’s toys, pieces of fluff, and my eyeglasses have also been repurposed as kitty toys, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

My parents contributed a new comforter set. I pulled a chair, lamp and a few other things from the rest of the house into the room. Materials for the temporary headboard were gleaned from a going-out-of-business sale at an imports store. Except for the mattress, I spent almost no cash.

At the same time that I made changes in my own sleeping arrangements, I decided that my little ones were old enough to sleep together in their room for nap time. Thus, I folded up the small travel crib that had resided in my room lo these many months. I converted their cribs to toddler beds. We exchanged baby blankets for small comforters and pillows. All of us have new beds, but I think I’m the happiest about it.

It’s such a pleasure to fall asleep in a room that belongs only to me, that I share with no one, that I’ve filled only with the things I love. I was constantly annoyed when my ex moved extraneous items (exercise bike, treadmill, ironing board, file cabinet, office supplies, printer) into our bedroom. I want my bedroom now to contain only what I need for sleeping and sex.

Oh, and maybe for reading the occasional book.

I’ve taken so much pleasure in introducing my partners to my new digs (”See the restraints under the bed? And here’s where the lube goes!”), as well as going to bed early on my own just to enjoy the room. I straighten and fluff, making sure that things are put to rights before I click off the light and snuggle down with a kitty or two.

In the morning, I’m woken before the alarm rings by an influx of small people who have crept from their rooms. They can do that, now that they are no longer trapped in cribs. They leap on my bed, pulling free blankets and tossing pillows to the ground. They rip the throw off the chair and lose the page in my book.

Briefly I consider adding a lock to the inside of my door (or the outside of theirs). I’m all about setting appropriate boundaries for these little imps, but at the moment a lock seems unnecessary. No men come to my room when my children are home.

But maybe I need the possibility of privacy just for myself. Maybe I should reconsider that lock.

I am now a big believer in some privacy for Mama. I did the family bed thing for years with the oldest . Our youngest still tries to sleep with us and sometimes wants to claim a spot on the bed. But I learned the hard way that boundaries need to be established early.

It is good that you get time for the men in your life without the little ones home. The oldest one sleeping with us killed our sex life for years.. Another good reason for the age spread.. My youngest pediatrician used to tell me that I was a better mother the second time around since I learned from my prior mistakes..lol. Someday’s I still wonder about that …mmm. But I hope so.

You may want to look into a fingerprint lock lock that is normally used on an entry door. It will allow you in and keep the little ones out. In case you need to leave some stuff out that you don’t want them in from time to time in your room.. ie Christmas presents to be wrapped.. and other things…

Here is to orgasmic bliss and private time for Mothers.

Have a special and great Mother’s Day!

Trust me,,put the lock on the Outside of Their door,,you will thank me later……

What a coincidence! I just wrote a rather lengthy essay for my long-distance lover extolling the virtues of the mirror I have placed on the wall beside the bed, specifically detailing how much I loved that I could watch him as he fucked me from behind. My mirror, too, allows me to see him without having to see myself.

I have a gate fitted across the doorway to my sons room. This means he can be kept in his room, but I can still see into the room and make sure everything is okay wthout having to unlock anything and disturb him.

Now he is almost 4 he has figured out how to unlock the door, I could remedy this by putting an extra lock on thats out of his reach. But theres something nice about waking up to find a little person has crept into my bed at 5am :)

theres something to be said for having your own space…we recently started transitioning the baby to his own bed in his own room…and its been nice to know our bed is our own again… :)

we have a lock on our bedroom door…we use it when we are having sex so little ones (or big ones) dont barge in…

i dont like the idea of locking kids in the room…i think it sends a negative message to them…i prefer to have open doors the majority of the time so if they need me for whatever reason, i am available to them…

peace…

By all means I vote yes for the lock. Being alone is necessary and healthy and teaches important lessons about the benefits of both.

Taking it for yourself is a benefit for all concerned.

Besides everyone needs a time out once in a while. Besides the Man (and/or Woman) Embargo may not last forever…..

I like reading you blog. I like fucking people too!

Kids to sex are like globs of molten magma to snow. Good to hear you wait until the kids are gone. My parents didn’t…

Isn’t it wonderful to have your very own refuge?

How are the little ones at following rules? I trained mine not to bother us in the morning unless the house is on fire. And always to knock first.

Following rules?

Bwahahahahahahhahaha!

That’s reeeeealy funny.

Unlurking to add my two cents here…

I’m all for the lock on the inside of your bedroom door, we all need that moment of peace once in a while, knowing for sure that the ankle biters won’t come busting in.

But don’t ever put a lock on the outside of a door especially your kid’s bedrooms…they need an exit both physically (in case of fire for example) and emotionally ( not a good feeling to be trapped ).

Love the blog!!!!

I agree with JB… lock on your door, not theirs. No one wants to be locked in… unless they lock themselves in. I love my bedroom door lock. Used it tonight for quiet (sort of quiet) time with my new nJoy PureWand. mmm

My solution was the gate across the KIDS bedroom door (although I do have a latch on the inside of my door for when I want to dress in private for a change). But I was worried about them wandering the house alone, if they couldn’t get into my room, and a gate across their doorway keeps them safely inside but as JB said doesn’t leave them feeling locked in. It’s just like having a room-sized crib!

PS The NobEssence butt plug (although that’s much too coarse of a phrase for such a gorgeous item) is EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for forever. Thanks for the recommendation!

oh man you got a good bed and a real bedroom!!

*dance of joy*
*dance of joy*

:)

i’m with latch or lock on your own door and either gate or nothing on theirs…

1. Grandma would be proud that her mirror is going to good use. :)

2. I love the little tour. ;)

hehe,I also agree with Ms.Inconspicuous that your Grandma would be proud that her mirror is going to use.
