A Year from Behind

And random and incomplete list of my 2017

  • Completed another February Photofest
  • Pulled off a very successful first Eroticon
  • Failed to take a week off afterwards as promised but instead worked even more hours than we had done before
  • Gave up smoking my e-cigarette.
  • Launched Eroticon 2018 ticket sales
  • Secured a regular job doing social media for a company
  • Went out for a celebration dinner with Girl on the Net and Michael that Eroticon paid for!!!!
  • Picked up numerous writing jobs
  • Encouraged my husband to explore a relationship with another women
  • Bought a new desktop computer and second monitor. (I LOVE my work space)
  • Slept in a four poster bed for the first time ever.
  • Got my first Sinful Sunday Monthly prompt Sponsor
  • Spent nearly a whole day with my ex husband visiting a university with my son and didn’t commit murder.
  • Nearly caused a flood trying to make a cup of coffee at the machine in the hotel because I seem to have forgotten how to make coffee now Michael makes it all the time.
  • Went on a two week family holiday to Greece
  • Realised my husband loved another woman before he did. (Just to be clear this is a nice thing)
  • Discovered that someone who I thought was a nice person and a friend was actually neither.
  • Went to Kestrals (naturist/swingers club) again and he spanked me so hard that he got a blood blister on his hand.
  • Met up with Teachers Have Sex and took her picture
  • Took my Mum out to proper afternoon tea in London
  • Got my belly button pierced!
  • Sold out all the Eroticon Sponsorship packages.
  • Published a post with the word tentacles in it when it should have said testicles. Took 3 days for anyone to notice.
  • Developed numerous positive business/work relationships that helped to tackle my imposter syndrome
  • Watched my husband have sex with another woman again. (and it was HOT)
  • Got to take photographs of the beautiful Cara Thereon
  • Finally managed to secure a location for the Saturday night of Eroticon 2018
  • Published the 100th addition of Elust
  • Started a new project of guest reviewers on my blog
  • Redesigned my blog (@domsigns note: and I didn’t kill her)
  • Continued to grow my hair. It is now the longest it has been in over 10 years
  • Secured a sponsor for the Top 100 Sex Bloggers 2017 and completed the list for the third time
  • Earned more money from writing then I have ever done before (This is a MASSIVE thing for me)
  • Took actual time off over Christmas and it has been wonderful

I am sure there are things I have missed, in fact I know there are some because I have intentionally left off because they are not for this space. I wrote this really just for me as a way of reminding myself all the things I have achieved this year and all the fun good stuff we have done too. I have a tendency to not recognize my achievements and abilities but to focus on what I have not done rather than what I did not do. I got the idea for this list from Laura Jane Williams (@superlativelyLJ) newsletter How to Eat an Elephant which I highly recommend. She did her own version of it (funnier than mine) which inspired me to attempt my own.

Wow! Congratulations! How did you arrive at the decision, encourage and then watch your husband make love to another woman?

Hi Melinda

Thank you for you question. It is one that I feel deserves a slightly longer answer and so if you don’t mind I will use it to write a post which I will post in the next couple of weeks
