May it always be this way if it is for the good of us all.

She spent hours over those days updating her resume and writing a cover letter to apply for job at Expedia. Please, dear Isis, Athena, Hermes and whatever other gods are good at this, let her get this job!
I loved that our friend said that she loved that she put the word out and we all came. "Nothing like a whole tribe to the rescue," she said.We had a great "tribal" day today. A friend of ours (form our poly community as are most of our friends) was moving and put an emergency call out for people to load her moving truck. She was severely undermanned for this part of her move and definitely needed help.
Redpepper, PN, LB, and I all changed our plans and headed out as a family to lend a hand. It didn't take long but they had a lot of big furniture which required some extra hands. After wards we enjoyed pizza and beer before resuming our days.
I was on my bike so I headed over to Derby's house to visit my dear metamour and her hubby. We chatted for an hour about many things from work to this forum. Then it was off to ride some more where I ran into RP downtown so we went burlesque costume shopping for an hour. During our shopping RP got confirmation that Leo and his family were in for our annual may camping trip.
I often forget how big our little community here actually is.
Another update!
I'm not pretending there are not challenges for me and Redpepper, everything is not all flowers and butterflies but I want to continue sharing our adventure on this thread
Tonight I was invited to Redpepper's parents house for a family supper. It was relaxed, incredible and so natural for all of us to be together. Her brother was there as well as a deep family friend of hers. We felt like family; Redpeppper felt it, I caught her looking around and looking so full. Her parents do not know about us yet and that is absolutely fine by me I think we could wait a lot longer in my opinion for things to settle out..not to mention it's gonna get awkward!! They accept me as a friend and that is enough for me LOL!!
All of us would have been friends regardless of my involvement in their family I think. We are all doing great in the moment
We had another great day of family togetherness We are getting the yard ready for summer and had our first BBQ of the season! We all got to say hi to my parents over Skype. It's great to have such openess and harmony within our families and tribe. Things are pretty damn good and my love for RP continues to grow
Looking through paperwork... my husband walks up to kiss me. He lifts up the jade pendant my boyfriend just gave to me, and says "Oh, is this from Ariakas? It's pretty." Kisses me, hugs me, tells me it suits me.
Kisses me, hugs me, tells me it suits me.
Redpepper mentioned that I haven't updated this thread in a while. I thought about it and it is honestly only because of one reason; things are really good and what's more important is that this goodness is really consistent!
If anyone asked me what it takes to make me feel grounded in a my mon/poly relationship it is the balance of pleasure and pain. Well, that balance is currently heavily tilted towards pleasure
Things are very good...we have lots of success and happiness...and very little of that came easy. It's hard work that got us here and lots more that will keep us here
