Good Evening Cage friends,
In my last blog I spoke about drop and some of the ways I attempted to manage it within a long distance relationship especially when leaving the physical presence of Y/your P/person.
One thing I did not really go into detail about that I wanted to expand on a little bit was this.
Having something to look forward to.
Part of O/our plan was that W/we wanted to ensure there was a return trip scheduled (if all went well and W/we did in fact want to see each other again) before W/we returned home. Part of this concept is to have the knowledge that while W/we are leaving it can be very grounding to have something tangible to reach back towards and know in your heart and mind that yes W/we will connect again and here are the tangible plans set in place.
Now originally W/we set an intention to try and book another cruise while still on the cruise ship because of the discount they give for booking and guaranteeing more business. That didn't happen. Although it still worked out in a round about way because of the circumstance with shifting flights to get to each other there was a credit left for another trip that had to be used up this year.
So weeks later (a couple of days ago now) and after spending hours with online advisors working through which flights, costs and layovers along with departure and arrival times would fit best (and a very frustrating moment where you got dropped by the online advisor just before work) W/we finally have O/our tangible plans for the future and something to look forward to.
21:32 on the 26th of June. My slave will return to my arms and my space. Just a simple 3 months away.
Now the really excellent part about this trip is that Mikayla will be coming to my home. To my space. To my neck of the woods. I get to show her what I do for fun, cool places I have around my area and all sorts of different adventures. I get to plan this trip. I get to orchestrate where W/we go and what W/we do on a much more personal level. Before I made the choices yeah that flight and that cruise and let's stay there. But I didnt know the space. I didn't know what to do in the areas. I won't lie though it was super fun having Mikayla guide me sharing interesting facts and spaces she knew and exploring together in some senses.
But this time around I have the home court advantage and I will be orchestrating O/our outings. I get to surprise her with all sorts of fun and mischievous machinations. I already have a list of places I want to take her. Things I want to show and share with her. I have ideas for plans but have to find out if they are financially viable and what W/we will have time for.
Now the interesting thing is how do I take this advantage and give her tidbits of info or downright tell her aspects of every bit of my plan. Personally I find giving her scraps of knowledge of what will happen gives her that grounding and sense of security that may assist in her managing her drop from O/our previous trip. There are definitely certain events and outings that will remain a complete surprise but I believe if I hide every bit of knowledge from her it may be less tangible and could cause a small bit of stress/uncertainty. I think it requires balance between telling all and leaving something to be desired.
But I get to ground myself in setting the plans, spending the next 3 months working on my gameplan of what I want to accomplish. What routines do I want to set. She will be in my home. She will be at my mercy. She and I will be living O/our first true experience of the 24/7 dynamic that W/we have been building over the last 2 years.
I'm honestly very excited and I am waiting with anticipation. The best part is that she will be here for her birthday and then just a couple weeks later she will be here to celebrate my birthday. I have some vacation when she arrives and it will be a good blend of true real life together. I will get the chance to come home from work, to be gone and have her be alone inside my home. To see what and how she cleans my space. How does she prepare and manage my household. One of the things I am probably most excited for is to come home to dinner or breakfast (depending if I just worked a night or day shift) ready for me the minute I walk through my door.
There is so much to be grateful for and so much to prepare for. The next 3 months will be immensely busy but well worth the wait. Waiting with anticipation. Waiting with joy in my heart. Waiting and orchestrating my preparation. Waiting to receive my slave in a way that just hasn't happened before.
I hope A/all that read my words this evening find some insight and perhaps some clarity of the journey T/they are on. Some inspiration and insight that leads to the healthy dynamic that is right for who they are and need.
