Morning, Rumpies!

I’m calling to say, “Where the fuck are my biopsy results,” today.

So, still watching owl cams to keep calm.

Keep us posted! Or come down and sit on thr beach with me to watch the waves of the gulf to keep calm. 😉

I'm sorry to have been so absent as of late. But I'm back and trying to catch up with everything.

I plan to read Rump's regulars' comp stories first before I get to others.

Popping in for a Coke Zero and to update all y'all on my never-ending sinus saga. Long story short, the rhinologist hasn't proven to have any better ideas than the ENT. But before I do another surgery (which won't cure the infection, but will help it drain better...so for now that's a hard pass for me), she has another antibiotic rinse to try for three months.

My immune system is trying very hard to kill this infection, but it has evolved into a superbug. 😕

We did enjoy our time in Michigan, but my son ended up in the ER twice over the weekend and is dealing with an ongoing health issue of his own. Never a dull moment in this family!

Hope all y'all are hanging in there. I miss the grandkids, but I'm happy to be home where it's warmer. 😎

It’s cold and gray here up north but my heart is happy. My littlest little is 2 today and happy to see her grandparents. She’s too little too understand that we came a long distance to be here for her bday. But with a reception like we got, she sure appreciates it! ❤️

Happy Easter 🐣🐰 if I don’t make it back in tomorrow.

Up to 9 days for a flash story. guessing there are a lot of Elements stories that take priority

Competition stories always take priority. 😘

Heading up to Michigan today to take my brother home and then spend the next 8 days seeing family and friends. Now that my comp story is in, I have a lot of stories to catch up on reading. Rumps’ patrons always have some amazing entries and I can’t wait to see what y’all have written! 😘😘

I will still be here on and off. And while I won’t be sightseeing like Bear and Lady Jay, the sights I will see include some of my favorite faces, so I’m a happy girl! ❤️

I'm in! Took me longer than I had hoped, but I finally carved out some time to do the final edits, and I'm pleased to share it with y'all: Lose My Breath

I chose the element of AIR for my Elements story competition entry. I'd love for y'all to give it a read and let me know what you think. 😘

Lose My Breath

I voted 15 as well. Because that is how old I was (well, actually 16 in Lush years) when I gave my heart to my hubby. I almost picked 6 because that is how many years we were together before I became his Mrs.
I have zero idea what we were supposed to be voting on.

I finished the rough draft of my comp story today! Woo hoo! Only 220 words too long. Some clever editing should rectify that issue.

This calls for a glass of pink Moscato!🍷

Being faithful got her nowhere. Now she's done being a good girl and is asking who's Next.

Quote by Seeker4

I am so close to submitting it hurts. Just can't settle on which of two endings to use.

You can do it! 😎

I had one started and decided halfway through to switch to a different element. Now I'm halfway done with the new story and I'm trying to talk myself out of going back to the first story. Ackkk! LOL.

Ackkk...my brother has a cold! Please, God, don't let me catch it. I have enough trouble with my sinuses as it is!

TGIF, all y'all. Just stopping in to grab a Coke Zero and a corner to rest my ass while I mod. 😘😘

Have fun, Bear! Hope you and Lady Jay have a voyage merveilleux!

A friend was visiting this week, and she brought two other friends whom I have met previously. When I said how nice it was to spend time lounging by the pool because I don't get to do it every day, one of those friends asked, "Why not? You're retired. What do you do all day?"

I REALLY wanted to say, "I write erotic stories, and I spend time moderating stories that other erotic authors write." But rather than being as bitchy as I was feeling, I simply said, "Oh, this and that."

I'll have a Coke Zero, please, and thanks. Moderating is thirsty work.

Ice cold water. So refreshing!

East coast or West coast of Florida beaches?

Love those adorable deer faces!

Kimmi, get the damn biopsy done! And FIGHT the damn insurance company! You should be able to get it covered, especially since your twin has had cancer. Early detection saves lives. Don't let them dick you around!

I have started something that might develop into a comp story. IDK...

Coke Zero, please and thanks. I'm in mod mode.

I'm working on finishing up the last few parts of Boardrooms & Boudoirs, a couple of stand-alone stories, and, if my brain can conjure anything that meets the theme, a comp story.

My wife complains that I’m reading too much on my iPhone. So trying to be sweet she got me a e-reader. What she doesn’t understand is that Lush isn’t available on a Kindle Paperwhite. 🤪🤪🤪

😂😂😂

Quote by LuceDevlin

Not to mention my issues with commas. I think I've gotten better, but yknow human error prevails. (even those of us like me that are an ink-ubus at heart )

You're not alone! Commas will be the death of me someday! LOL.

We had my neighbor over for our annual St. Paddy's Day feast, although we were minus her husband this year, as he is in memory care. Kevin made corned beef, soda bread, and red potatoes, and my neighbor made cabbage and a lovely green cake. I brought the Guinness. (Sorry, David, I'll um... pay you back somehow...).

Feeling a bit irritated this morning that my two-hour penicillin testing appointment that was scheduled for April 16 (which was already a wait of three months) got cancelled because the tests are on back order. So, now I am on a wait list. I would bet money that my turn will come up while I'm traveling in Michigan in late May/early June. Grrrr...

It's always something.

My bloodwork came back off for some or another immunodeficiency...will need to wait for doc appt on April 14 to see what's what.

Soooo, I'm gonna grab a Coke Zero, head to my corner, and do some story modding. 😘

Quote by wxt55uk

I hope you get well soon, techgoddess. I hope April 14th sorts out the issue or, at the very least, gets you on the right path to recovery. Your drinks are on my tab today, Kat. 😊

Thanks! I'll have another Guinness.

Had to show up at the bar on St. Paddy's Day!

I've been under the weather for the past several days. Just more of the same BS... next appointment with the Rhinologist is April 14.

I'll have a Guinness while I mod today... I'm a full quarter Irish... so it seems required.

Hope all y'all are doing okay!

Quote by Mandapanda2025

I'm working on a story that spans a girls live from 8 to 18. so far 4K words of nothing sexual, just world building. we will see I'm thinking abotu scrapping the whole backstory and just starting at age 17 or 18

Be cautious about how far back you go. Lush Stories will not publish anything that involves sexual awakening before age 16.

So, what I am hearing that you and I could sit at the bar and talk about economics (and potential impacts of AI) for hours! I studied economics as an undergrad.

Grabbing a to-go cup of coffee and heading into the office. Happy Hump Day everyone!!

Bear is quite the knowledgeable conversationalist! He's more than just fur and paws!

Hi, Rumpies

Under a tornado watch in KY today. Yay! (sarcasm)

Well… crazy stuff for mirror twins. My thyroid scan revealed a suspicious nodule in exact place, opposite side, of my sisters, so now the fun begins for me.

On a good note, her surgery is over and she’s doing well. Ended up being a 5 hr surgery yesterday, more radical neck dissection, due to suspicious lymph nodes. Kudus to her surgeon for being skilled, diligent, proactive with what he was seeing.

We appreciate all the prayers and well wishes.

She’s the tough one between us for sure. I’m struggling, overwhelmed, but seeking mental health help today.

Love you all! ❤️

Hugs and prayers for both of you! Love you too! ❤️

Just stopping in for a Coke Zero. I did some modding, and it's always thirsty work! David (wtx55uk) has a new story published today, and so does a certain sassy redhead. Now it's time to spend a lil time with my honey. (And maybe read him my story later...)

Hot off the press, a new story for y'all! It's about a redhead...go figure!

Ruined By A Redhead is about a one-night stand that he'll never forget.

Congrats on the 100th story!

Quote by Seeker4

That's a really nice sunset. Where I am, I can't see either rises or sets without driving 10 or 15 minutes. Too many buildings around us. But I am cruising in April so usually get to see a few sunsets that way.

I get to see sunsets most nights and I feel quite blessed. Moving to that beach helped my anxiety so much!

Not a fan of the time change, but I don't mind that the sun will set later than it has been.

Quote by KimmiBeGood

Thank you all for your well wishes!

And…

Those aren’t Kimmi’s buns. Bear. These are Kimmi’s buns!

Get ‘em while they’re hot!

YUMMMM...

Good luck to you and your twin with all that's going on. 😘

Ooh, we really enjoyed The Thursday Murder Club. Helen Mirren is fabulous!

My mood has improved significantly this morning. Could be because my man is on a plan waiting to take off and come home to me.

TGIF all y’all.
