Morning, Rumpies

Big snow… and I really mean BIG SNOW… hitting the Bluegrass this weekend. I’m freakin’ a little. If it comes, we’ll all be snowed in for days which causes me some anxiety. Loading up on supplies today…

Stay warm!

It's finally going to start warming up here this weekend. I know it's not as cold as where y'all are, but when the feels-like temps dip down to 30 F, it's not what I signed up for when I moved to Florida. 😳

So, the locks and handles are supposed to be installed today on the garage doors. We shall see. I'll believe it when I see it.🙄

Did our own Kat bring snow to Florida

I say NO

Glad you’re not gonna try to pin that on me!

It’s really cold here for Florida. I know that y’all in colder places think we are wimps down here. But we don’t have the cold weather gear like y’all do. It’s currently 42 with a feels-like temp of 30. 😳🥶

So, my garage door excitement was short lived. The installers didn’t include handles or locks. 🙈It’s always something. I’ve been told they will fix that. The question is when. 😫

Hot tea please and thanks. 😘

Just stopping in to say hi and to tell the Bearkeep to put all drinks on my tab today...truly MY tab (Not Ping's or Bear's).

I'm celebrating! I HAVE A GARAGE WITH A GARAGE DOOR!

It's been a long time coming, but phase 2 construction (after the destruction caused by Hurricane Helene and her pal Hurricane Milton in the fall of 2024) is nearly complete. MY garage was the first to have a door installed. So, I forgave them for starting the work at 6:45 am. LOL.

Looks like we will be moving out of the pods this weekend when Kevin gets home. I'm so excited!

And since I'm doing Dry January, make my drink a Coke Zero over ice. But let's get fancy and put it in a wine glass and throw a lime in it! 🤣

Congrats! It's in my queue! Now I'm gonna skip over a bunch of other stories and read it this afternoon! 😘

Going for the Omnium Badge (a story in every category) made me stretch a lot and helped me try out new things. Even if you don’t aspire to write in every category, pick a few different ones and challenge yourself. 😘

Fabulous tunes and buttercream cuppycakes! What a great way to start off my Saturday.

The big task on my to-do list today is buying a new bed and mattress. 😊

But this morning, I'm off to do some modding. So, I'll take my cuppycake and a Coke Zero to go. Yes, I realize it sounds counterintuitive, but there is some sugar I can resist (sodas) and some I cannot (frosting). LOL

If y'all want to read my latest, it's a love story about two 60-something-year-olds who not only still enjoy each other's company, but who still burn for each other, called All My Love. (Maybe that's why they need a new bed...but I shan't tell).

Have a great Saturday, all y'all!

Congratulations, KimmiBeAwesome!

All My Love is a story I wrote for my husband and decided to share on Lush. It's a snapshot of a weekend when there were no special plans, no major events, just us being us together.

I've been told it's a lovely mix of tenderness and heat. I hope you will check it out and enjoy reading it. 😘

Stopping in for some hot tea with lemon. And to check on all my favorite Rumpled miscreants. Been a lil busy readjusting to my caretaker role with my brother back for three months. It was a little harder this week (and will be again next week) with my hubby traveling for work again. But it’s all good.

It just means less time to enjoy storeroom 4. 😉

But I’m still writing and modding. By the way, the queue is outrageous at the moment so if you’re submitting stories, please be patient. 🤪

Hope all y’all are doing well. It’s 40 degrees here on the beach with a feels like temp of 30. That’s Fahrenheit- so yes it’s damn cold here. At least there is no snow. ❄️

So keep the hot tea coming please. I’m gonna grab some breakfast and then come back with my moderator sword and do some queue slaying! 😘

Congratulations to the winners and all the rest of the top 15. What a wonderful bunch of stories to be recognized! Fabulous contest. Thanks, Jen, for another fun comp.

I find it a little hard to believe its that random. I thought there was some review and consideration for content and reader response incorporated into that decision. But I guess this is a... "fair" way to do it? Complete luck of the draw seems a little wild to me. Maybe i'm just old fashioned and silly.

She was kidding. 😉

Happy Belated Birthday, Kis!

Congrats to the winners!

Thanks for doing this challenge, Kimmi. Sorry I never for around to sharing mine. Life has been busy! 😎😘

Bad start to 2026.

So much for 2026 being a better year. 🙁

Quote by AngelWorthy

Congratulations on both 100 followers & almost 25,000 views on your stories in less than 3 months. Awesome effort. I will have to take a moment or two to read said stories. For me, I haven't written anything the last few months. It's been a bit busy with work. I have a couple stories, a few micro's & many more co-authored stories/micros. My figures are all over the place. If I just count the stories/micro's that I wrote myself then I've managed a mere 35,800 views in over 4 years. So your nearly 25,000 in less than 3 months is a wonderful achievement. My Followers number has been up & down lately; moving between 420 & 430.

I've managed to read all of the Advent Story Comp Entries. A great bunch of stories. I feel for the judges this time round. Good Luck to all who entered a story. Well done to you all.

Thanks for the tunes, Fuzzy. You never miss a beat. I always enjoy your tuunnneeeeeeeeeeeeees.

I think I will enjoy one of Da Bear's buttercream cuppycakes. Thanks Da Bear. I've missed your special treats. Can I please have a Hot Chocolate, to go? It's just ticked over midnight here. I best be making tracks & visit the land of dreams.

Hope to catch you all later. Until then Stay Safe & Have Fun. xx

Good to see you here! I see Rump liking stories here and there. I haven't seen Sara in ages.

I will join you in a buttercream cuppycake!

Home from the gym. Time to shower, write a little, mod a little, and head to the airport after lunch. Picking up my brother and sister. 😎

Quote by KimmiBeGood

I’m so jealous! My cat Butters would never let me sleep anywhere close to 10am.

I know how annoying it can be to be woken up by the cat...but I miss that more than I realized I would.

Many thanks for the Coke Zero, Mr Lion. Much appreciated.

Hope the new year is being kind to all y’all so far. Enjoying our last weekend before my brother arrives for his 3 month stay. First on the agenda this morning? Breakfast at Waffle House!

I’m delighted at how well my new naughty little micro is doing I hope y’all will check it out when you get a chance. 🥰😘💋

Good Girl

Quote by David_LeRoy

good morning all. After taking time for myself this holiday I had a chance to reflect and remember and decide what I wanted to do moving forward. I love Tennessee, but I have a lot of family back in California and I’m becoming overly depressed staying here and staring at the walls so I’ve decided to sell the house and move back to California. I’ve already spoken to my family about it and they’re very excited to give me home and with my new grand niece there I can’t wait to see her.

I’m still not sure if I’m gonna write anytime soon that’ll just be as the mood strikes but I appreciate all the support I’ve gotten from everybody here

I’m happy to hear you are making a change that will bring you closer to family, David. Hugs for you always! Drop in when the mood strikes, but DO let us know how things go when you can. 😘

Kimmi, there is a flaw with your cover! 😳 It would be the men with the heartache if they broke up with a woman as attractive (read hot & sexy) as the one portrayed on the cover. I have to say, I have no idea how you made such a wonderful cover. Now I look forward to reading your poem.

I wasn't going to drop by Rumpee's today, but I got something to celebrate: 500 Lush followers. 😊

So drinks 🍷🍺 are on me.

My wife is still in bed with the flu (or something like it), but I did make it for a couple of hours to our youngest daughter, who took over hosting our New Year's Party at short notice. Tomorrow, I will start taking our Christmas decorations down. Christmas will then be officially over for us.

Congrats! 🥂

Quote by KimmiBeGood

One of FuzzyLion’s songs inspired me this morning. My first publishing of 2026 will be a poem of how one woman deals with heartache from men. The cover though was created with our own Kat in mind. I see her as a strong, sexy woman! I hope you like my cover, Kat!

Omg I love it! It’s amazing. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Quote by JamesLlewellyn

Did someone get the name of that truck?

Or was it the name of that fuck?

Anyway or how or who … 😒

So Happy Fuckin' New Year, y'all!

Let it be gentle, and let's pray that it's a year we all remember fondly, as opposed to last year, which I think we'd all rather forget.

Thank you, Lion, for kick-starting the day – and the year, for that matter.

You are a mensch among beasts!

I have two big projects for 2026:

1) Rework and relaunch Bear and Girl, and

2) Write and publish my father's biography, tentative working title: The Hidden World.

That'll keep me a bit busy.

Later, y'all.

And take care out there!

Sending you warm thoughts, Bear. (Even though it’s only 54 degrees here).

Happy New Year!

Despite my very ornery BIL, I have been enjoying the past couple of days with my sister.

Three of us enjoyed the movie “Song Sung Blue” last night. I knew that Hugh Jackman could sing, but I didn’t know that Kate Hudson had such an incredible voice.

After sis and her hubby leave, we will start the process of taking down the Christmas tree and the decorations. unfortunately we will have to put the boxes all back in the storage pod. But in 2-3 weeks, we should have a garage door and we will be able to move those boxes to our new shelves!

I hope 2026 is starting off well for everyone! Wishing you all much love and happiness. 🥰🎉🎆🥂

Happy New Year’s Eve from the frozen tundra. Ok maybe not frozen but when I woke up to 40 degrees F (with a feels-like temperature of 35) it surely doesn't feel like the beach.

Hoping to find other ways to pass the time with my sister and her hubby. We have solid evening plans but the day was supposed to be “hang on the beach.” 🙀🥶

My sister is easy. My BIL, not so much. But the Michigan game is on at 3 so that will help.

On a serious note, my neighbor with Alzheimer’s who is in a memory care facility has reached the aggressive stage and has to be more heavily medicated. I spent time with his wife (who looks upon us as family) yesterday as she cried and admitted she's ready to be a widow. I assured her that she already is and that there is nothing wrong with wishing for his ordeal to be over.

Whatever I'm going through, I am reminded to be grateful for what I have.

Yes.

Have you ever traveled to another country to meet someone for sex?

Quote by LYFBUZ

Been storming here since last night but really just normal winter for us. Seems pretty minor compared to Kat's neck of the woods and dealing with hurricanes.

Pumped out 6800 words so far today for what was intended to be a Wife Lovers story. Approximately 2 paragraphs describe a steamy kiss and that's it for the sex so far. I might be doing it wrong. Having fun with it though. Maybe it will end up on the bluesite. Or more likely abandoned to the Heap of Shame.

Sounds like a steamy series in the making.

We got a bit of a reprieve this year after being hit so hard with Helene and Milton last year. To say we are grateful is an understatement. But I've experienced winter storms when I lived in Michigan, and they are no picnic either. Be safe!

Quote by Hughtheman

Is anyone else using ProWritingAid when editing their stories? The extension is starting to annoy me. On top of not being clear with what they want you to change, they only give you 2 free credits a day per category. And I would pay the $10/month for a subscription, but I don't have much money

I don't use ProWritingAid. I tend to use either Grammarly or Quillbot to help me with punctuation and verb tense issues. (I ignore pretty much every other suggestion).

I used to teach English, but even I need a little help with proofreading now and then. 😎

Quote by paddlingincognito

Funny, I would have just edited “29” to “28” and called it good. Adding a filler story, and one that doesn’t involve Olivia - I am impressed!

I thought about changing the title. But that also meant I'd have to edit the cover pic. Plus, the story queue is closed right now, so I came up with an idea for a story that could slide in as part 28. We shall see how it goes.

I realized that I skipped the number 28 in my Hot Wife Hotel series. Since 29 picks up right where 27 left off, I am working on a story that involves another hot wife taking on one of Olivia’s clients while she's on vacation for story 28. Still working on a title since it won't be Olivia. But I have some ideas. 😉

Quote by Seeker4

You up for visitors, Kat? 🙄😀 This winter is just crazy here in Ontario. Snow and high wind today, cold with a chance of flurries rest of the week. How about an Irish Coffee down here?

Come on down! Although we are supposed to get a major cold snap this week. Not cold by YOUR standards but downright cold by mine.

My sister and her husband arrive tomorrow for a few days. They live two hours south of us and usually come to the beach for NYE. She called yesterday to assure me that they will still come even though it's going to be cold. 🤣

Been busy queue-slaying this morning. Modding is thirsty work. I'd love a Coke Zero.

Spent the weekend building shelves in the new garages (Ours and two of our neighbors). The garage doors won't be installed until mid-January, but we will be ready to move our stuff from the pods in the parking lot onto our wonderful new shelves as soon as they are! So excited! It's been a long year...but normal is right around the corner.
