So last night my dream starts out with my trying to make arrangements for a babysitter. Don't really know why, but I can tell my friends are different, don't know why.:nanahump:
So the dream progresses, we get rid of the kids. My friends leave the house. That is when I catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror(a dream mirror of course).:nanahump:
I put on my new lingerie, my first real lingerie, that won't double for a fishing net.:kiss2:
:shade:DH looks really happy...the rest is x-rated.
If anyone knows how to make the photo show in the journal, as opposed to a link showing...please pm me. Thanks.
