Hello all....It has been a surprisingly long time, but a new job and various family and life commitments have just kind of taken over. I had some time to myself this morning, and after catching...

Today's topic focuses on identifying the particular goals or benefits one can get from a FLR, and that ultimately that is a question only you can answer. As we continue down this path, the mor...

It seems that every time I post it begins with a lament of my lack of recent posting. My hope is that followers loyal to this blog will keep reading even when I am slacking on posting. But life i...

Thanks to everyone who still reads even when my postings are sporadic, at best. Life just has a way of interfering in consistency in any activity. That holds especially true for our FLR as we...

Hi all....Yes again, I find that life has made it difficult to blog. My apologies for the delay, but it has just been surprisingly hectic as of late. Rather than just keep avoiding it, I thou...

I have noticed "reinforcement" has come up in several comments, and thought it might be time to discuss it. This is not a new concept by any means. Most of us employ some version of this in n...

It seems I start nearly every post with some form of a lament about how long it has been....but such is life, and we all do the best we can. So I hope you will stick with reading this even though...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/08/one-size-fits-all-does-not-exist.html
I committed in my last post to try making simple choices and following through. I started with one decision at a time, made the best decision in the moment and did not back down from it. It h...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/07/operation-boss-lady.html
I find, yet again, that it has been a significant period of time between posts. It is partially my schedule and also being at times without certainty as to what to write. Not being an expert ...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-complexity-of-simplicity.html
Wow, it has been a long time since I last posted. Life has just been busy and I have been somewhat uninspired on topics. Because I am newer at this, I do not really have lifetime experience t...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/06/leading-is-not-simple.html
I'm going to borrow a theme from I'm Hers because it is one that is pretty foundational for a FLR. At the same time it is also incredibly amorphous and trying to navigate the practicalities of b...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/04/what-is-in-word-art-of-domination-and.html
Today I wanted to draw on some of the topics we previously discussed--keeping this up when life, children or the unexpected intervenes--and explore how this works when you are not physically in t...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/04/realities-of-life-state-lines-and.html
As readers of this blog are aware, I am not a believer in turning this on and off based on audience. While that is easier around adults, who often are self-absorbed and only really see things tha...

I realized today when one of my favorite bloggers made reference to me as a former blogger, that time has (once again) played me. It has been way too long, but as work stress has been particula...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/03/is-our-kink-new-unrecognized-norm.html
So, as a favorite blogger pointed out, the trend in men who wish to be submissive is more. More strictness, more authority, more discipline. But, most importantly, more consistency. Consisten...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/03/on-consistency.html
So it has been a little while....apparently blogging is harder to navigate with real life than I thought! Which leads me to my topic today of balancing what we do with the realities of life. Be...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/02/realities-of-life.html
As we have started to do this for longer, the question inevitably becomes how do you handle it in public? As anyone who has read this knows, I struggle from time to time with achieving the right ...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/02/on-being-open.html
I promise to tackle the complex topic of chastity and orgasm control shortly. But Ill be honest that I need to think through some things on that and want to give it the appropriate consideratio...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/01/one-lucky-lady.html
In reading through the comments and thinking about what might be an interesting topic, I saw two themes developing that I think we should explore together. I will deal with them separately, muc...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/01/on-ever-complicated-topic-of-discipline.html
First, I want to say a tremendous thank you to each person who has contributed, posted my blog as a link (assuming that is even the right terminology!) or otherwise just been so positive about th...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-search-for-balance-unicorn-task-of.html
I was speaking with my best friend yesterday, and who is the only person (other than all of you) with whom I have shared this particular aspect of our life. She and I are very different in cert...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/01/being-more-accountable.html
As I have said, this is a newer concept for us. But what is new is not really the idea that one person is more in control than another, but rather that there is an open acknowledgment of it. ...
http://learningandlivingaflr.blogspot.com/2015/01/is-any-marriage-ever-really-equal.html
I have never blogged before. I only very recently even started posting comments that were not Anonymous on blogs that I have been following. But, in thinking about the different challenges a ...
