Oh I mean exercise more.

Everyone makes them, I'm curious to hear what this crowd vowes to change in the year 2012

Then I can’t break them.

I have reviews on TER, you just dont know my reviewer name. That account is closed.

I have been actively hobbying for a number of years now. I mentioned recently that I was considering a Sugardaddy relationship in 2012.

That is in place with a very nice dancer here in the valley that I have been 'seeing' for about 6 months - it is a first for both of us, and so far is going swimmingly.

My resolution is to make that work through 2012 or at least till the world ends. So for the time being that is my exclusive arrangement. Much safer, much less expensive, much less complicated, very satisfying, a bit perverse since she is younger than some of my (adult)children, with some other benefits that will remain private.

No more hobbying for ol' HalfHour, for now anywhoo. That doesn't preclude occsional fun with one of her coworkers that she might bring over, though.


HH

To go to the gym at least 3 days a week and to change my diet completly

I found getting older I was more short with people  so am making an effort  to be nicer  to slow down and enjoy this ride called life  family is at the top of my list already have started to make plans to spend more time with loved ones  corny I know  but its all I got  for you......happy New year and thanks for all the laughs and stories you have shared with us best to you this year  go out  and kick some ass girl !!!!!!

I never learned. Now it look's a lil fun!

Taking more time for myself and hiking twice a week, already started went today!

Volunteer a lot more with disable persons to help make their lives better. Also being disabled myself to drive again.

i used to make resolutions every year to lose weight. 2 Years ago I lived up to that resolution. lost 62 lbs. and workout and running 3 times a week. Better shape than 10 years ago so I am not making any new resolutions. How about you Bailey? Any Resolutions?

One of my passions, you'll love it......

Where did you go? The Superstitions are my favorite in the Phoenix area!

Rogers Trough trail head to Reavis Ranch. Its a bit of a hike, if you go around Thanksgiving there might be some apples there.

You are so nice and patience already you don't need to work on that.  You are very patience, if you know what I mean

I live in Tucson, if your ever down here let me know we can hit the trail......

. . . now your resolution is "to not hobby."  Of course, we know that many hobbyists prefer not to write reviews.  We also know that ol' HH is not above engaging in a little sarcastic humor.  But if neither of those apply and you meant what you wrote, just curious, why hang out here?  This board isn't Facebook.

Perhaps this is a heretofore undiscovered fetish . . . getting off just by participating in the discussion board!  Which, with all your postings, by now would probably make your keyboard a biohazard . . . .

Probably don't want to go there.  Figuratively or literally.

God forbid laddie, I hope it's not terminal ED that's got ya down!

I was up and around the Lost Dutchman State Park on Saturday with relatives and the dogs.  Beautiful day and great just a great day to hike and be outdoors.  Love this time of year.

First off, I'm not sure how this will work out. My new 'best friend' (which is how she refers to me when people ask her in public "are you WITH him???") has never done this this before, ever.

She has no intentions of becoming a provider - she has never even heard that word and knows nothing of the lifestyle. She doesn't have a boyfriend and just got out of a live-in relationship that was not something she liked, but she was in it for the support, because (surprise!) she is a single mom.

It 'fell' into place through a series of event, that seemed to be the right recipe...

But long story short, hundreds and hundreds of hours have been spent in strip clubs over a few years making many stripper friends before this situation came about. (I love strip clubs)  

Her view is (quote) "you help me and I help you" Our time together is not "session oriented." It involves going out having a good time and some BDC time. It also involves helping her in a less strucured manner. All of which involves an effort that is more like the relationiships that hobbying avoids. So we'll see.

So far there has been candor, since I have been 100% no judgemental about anything and everything she does. I've helped her by guiding her and "mentoring" her through some legal battles and problems with ex and inlaws, which has built a trust in her of me. But needless to say, that is not what the hobby is about.

She doesn't want to date or to get into a relationship right now. She wants to put her life together and is looking for assistance which is what I'm giving. So MY cost is much more than money.

But to answer your question: Yes we are both tested, she is on birth control and there is no need for condoms use. We've agreed that if either one wants to seek fun elsehwere we have no issues BUT we will resume standard safety practices.

That's one of the reasons the hobbying has ended.

Money wise? Far less than hobby. Headache, hassle, and drama?  Well I will let you know.


HH

. . . but I also think you're still hobbying, you're just "taking it to another level."  Sounds pretty damned good, actually!  Kind of a, what do the kids call it, "friends with benefits" deal with ol' HH adding some sugardaddy support to further incent the sweet young thing to be messing around with one of us codger types (I include myself as such).  Probably an arrangement you can afford, which will obviously help sufficiently with life's expenses so that she can dedicate her "providing" time (or whatever this variation would be called) solely to you.  As long as the sugardaddy isn't the type to soon get bored with one flavor, it's pretty much a quid pro quo home run!

I suppose the risk in such cases is always that the lady may eventually start to covertly burn her candle at both ends, i.e., in other places.  (That would emulate a bad marriage, though much more easily ended.)  No doubt you're sharp enough to cover with her how much, if any, of that kind of thing you are willing to tolerate for the arrangement to continue.

While the mind wanders, here's another thought for readers (not for HH, who doubtless is way ahead of me here.)  If she is absolutely trustworthy and agrees to be tested at the outset (as she may reasonably also want of you), of course this brings up the possibility of BBFS without concerns about things literally going viral!  "It don't get much better than that."

You might end up everyone's new hero round 'bout these parts, pardner.  Hope you snare that brass ring.

(Now for all the providers reading this and maybe fuming, not to worry, I wish him well but don't think he's gonna start a big trend here.)

Is it 4 Wheel Drive to get there and are there some ruins close by? If I'm thinking of the same place as you are, the ruins are perfect for a little afternoon fun (especially on weekdays). Nothing like making love while the gods are watching, out in nature, no less!

The weather has been phenomenal! I think its time to get out there myself!

I would like to play more, travel more and finish all the little projects I've started.

Hopefully this year, I'll acquire my PhD in Human Sexuality and wrap up classes at SWIHA in Hypnotherapy and Life Coaching.

I'd also like to put to use my organizing skills... possibly becoming a professional organizer.

Creatively, I've found that I enjoy arranging silk flowers in beautiful vases...I'd like to do more of that as well.

Mine is always the same to make sure I don't go to jail from choking the shit out of stupid people and to push myself harder physically and compete in more challenges, drumsticks learn to dive it's amazing!!

You do want a high profile truck. You are correct the ruins are down the trail, it is a good hike for a day. Fours miles one way. Did you find the ruins? I had a topo map with me so I was able to find the ruins. If you go about a mile from the start of the trail head there is a trail that goes to the right thru the saddle that will take you to Revis Ranch. there is a apple orchard there or there was the last time I was there. Would love to take you there, get a sun tan on our butts. hehe.  One time when I came out at night is was raining, the road was under water, could not see much of anything it was so dark. Just figured the road was between this set of trees and this set of trees. Good thing we had a four wheel drive, you also have to cross the wash to get to the main road and we were lucky to get across it that.
