My cousin
and I went to meet an old and dear friend for a girl’s trip! It was the kind of
vacation where you know the people so well it doesn’t matter how long it has
been since you last saw each other! We could have been in a squished pup tent
and had a good time!
Laughing and talking constantly we often needed to remind
each other to pay attention to the scenery!
Of course
with all our walking we splurged a bit on the meals….Not really…but maybe a
glass or more…of wine with dinner. We loved to share meals so as to try more
than one entree
Women will totally get that!
On our last
full day we booked a short tour and had a delicious cocktail. Soon after we
went to lunch and had another cocktail…Early I know! You all know I get a bit feisty, daring and
Stubborn with a drink or two. Ahem…just saying !
After lunch
we decided to get a foot massage! Two of us had never splurged before….But my
Scotsman always rubs my feet…mmmmm! Sometimes I tease him and say it is better than
‘romantic pursuits!’
He is always indignant and says, “Nay chance.”
Anyway we
all enjoyed it even as we tried hard to surreptitiously avoid the giggles!
(they have those signs that ask you to avoid conversation, let alone the
giggles.) The only way that was possible
was to close our eyes and bite the inside of our mouths.
Maaybee….just….mayybee….the alcohol made this
a mite bit more difficult. Of course at the end when they slap your legs and
feet…I started thinking….You know what those sounds made me think about!
As we exited
the shop we laughed and laughed, I knew I was a goner when my cousin and friend
described the experience in a vanilla way and I said the sound reminded me of
smacking…..I didn’t say what body part!
Sheesh….you think I would spill those
beans?
The comical
result of this endeavor was my feet, and only mine kept slipping sideways in my
CUTE Sandals as I tried to walk after the massage. Not quite sure why I was the
only one to experience this side effect! Ahem….
I was slowing
the girls down….plus I was precariously close to spraining my ankle. My cousin
kept offering to switch shoes. I really did not want to impose. Aside from the
fact that I am shorter than both my cousin and friend and my shoes had a tiny
wedge heal….
In an
exasperated voice my cousin turned to me and said, “I am going to smack you!
You better change your shoes when we get to the car.”
Of course I answered cheekily, “I thought you didn’t believe in violence, and for all you know I will like it!”
She replied
just as snottily, Oh honey you may like it when your Scotsman smacks you…but
you will not like it when I do!”
Soooo do you
think she knows??
I’d love to
say that we had a quiet retiring afternoon and evening after that….but nope. We
may have even talked about fifty shades and Diana Gabaldon!
Plus us old broads may have been propositioned as well! Laughing out loud my cousin set him straight
about us being happily married ladies!!
All in all a
fantastic trip but I am delighted to be back with my family!
Sorry about the type size change, I do not know how to fix that!
A lovely adventure, sounds like you had a wonderful trip and I think someone has your number.
ReplyDeleteYep I believe you are right! I think you called this post....remember?
DeleteI checked back and yes you did...remember what you said?
DeleteHey Minelle..."Sheesh….you think I would spill those beans?" Of course...who was it who said "See that lap over there...I've been over it." Hmmmm? Slipping and sliding and trying to blame it on the foot massage? Right...had nothing to do with your drinking...*snort*
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't you call me...I would reminded you how to do that...we walked through it before so I know you can fix it.
Hugs and Blessings,
Cat
Why don't I remember how much I say after a couple of cocktails? Oh boy.... that lap post...sheesh!
DeleteBtw, I didn't want to bother you with the mundane task, since you already helped once! Short term memory....lol.
Hi Minelle, :)
ReplyDeleteYour trip sounded so fun and the way you told this has me giggling in the wee hours of the morning!!!
I am glad that you had such a well deserved and fun girl time with your cousin and friend!! Nothing like a little wine to get one a bit loose lipped and umm... thinking of spanking during a foot massage???
I wonder what would happen if you asked your Scottsman for a foot massage after some wine because that would surely lead to some trouble for your behind!!
Just ask your cousin what she thinks!!! LOL!!!
I'm so glad you had fun! Hugs to you, :)
<3 Katie
Katie...Katie...Katie! I bet next time I get together with my friends, I will remember your suggestion. Hopefully I will be
Deletecircumspect! (Not likely)
Welcome back..I loved hearing about your trip, my sister and i are having a 'sister trip' next week. It's been 3 years since our last one...
ReplyDeletei imagine we will be having lots of the same fun you had...
If she doesn't know...she is probably suspicious.
hugs abby
Oh that sounds like so much fun! Three years is such a long time between sister trips. My sisters all have too many family obligations for us to get a chance for sister only trips! Wish that would happen!
DeleteI definitely think she is suspicious...Maybe because a while back I told her my Scotsman solves those silly outbursts of mine by tossing me over his knee. Yep I did!
Hi Minelle,
ReplyDeleteLoL, it sounds like a wonderful trip. I'm so glad to hear you managed a well deserved and fun getaway with your cousin and friend.
Slipping and sliding due to the massage .. yeah right! That had me giggling :)
I love her comment about you may like when your Scotsman smacks you, but you won't like her smacking you LoL. Yep, I think she may just be on to you :)
Hugs,
Roz
I really think it was the massage! LOL...I do!
DeleteI think my cousin likes seeing me act a bit nutty...But I was annoying her to no end!
What a wonderful trip you had, Minelle ! ThE is so important to have such friends around you, it makes life so much more enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteAnd to your question: Of course she knows ..
You are probably right! I just hope she never finds this blog! I would have a great deal of explaining!
DeleteAs to the fun...We absolutely do have a blast!
Sounds wonderful. I think it's too bad that more women don't take the time to nurture their friendships and laugh, laugh, laugh with their friends. Good for you.
ReplyDeleteOh...your cousin is totally on to you and probably wants more details. Have you given her the link to your blog? LOL
You made my hair stand up with the question about a link!
DeleteDo not think I am ready for that...maybe....!
I love getting together with the girls. We always have a week in the Fall as well. There are more women involved in that trip! Boy we just have so much fun!
That sounds like so much fun :) Perhaps someone does know your little secret. I would have DIED...truly. A few weeks ago I was on the phone with a close friend who knows nothing about ttwd...and we were joking around and acting silly and she said, "Ryan really needs to get control of you....maybe I will just tell him you need to be spanked." o_0 About that time, the kids were making a ruckus....and I had an excuse to go so that she would not hear me howling with laughter!
ReplyDeleteGlad you were able to have such a good time with your friends....
~Lucy
Maybe your friend knows or she actually is a spanko...?
DeleteNo matter what, it seems as if she is very open and tolerant anyway! Good that the kids saved you!!
We definitely had fun!
Sound like a fantastic trip - I don't think they would have minded you spilling the beans a bit. They sound very accepting, but that not to say they wouldn't have mentioned it the next time they had a bit of the grape, regardless of who might have been around. Glad you had fun.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness spilling the beans happens too much. I actually have said a few things to my cousin. I am trying so hard to be careful lately. I feel like such a goof ball! But I enjoy letting my hair down and having fun. Too many times I needed to be mature!
DeleteI was laughing all through this post. Sounds like yu had a wonderful time and yes I do think she knows:)
ReplyDeleteLove,
Ronnie
xx
I think she does too....but hopefully not about the blog!!
DeleteWe really had fun!
What a fun post, glad you had a nice time. I would say that yes she knows, The question is do you mind that she knows? I think I would like to be able to tell my vanilla friends. I love doing what we do, Of course I am not brave enough, no matter how much I drink!
ReplyDeletelove Jan.xx
You know I vacillate regarding her knowing. I think I am okay with the suggestive stuff, however not sure I want her reading all my thoughts!
DeleteI'll bet your cousin knows! Good grief! But what's this with the legs and feet getting slapped during a massage?! They don't do that here! I would have completely dissolved!
ReplyDeleteThe snag with a friend and cousin getting to know your kink is that the next time they are four sheets to the wind they will happily impart their knowledge to someone else! And so on... Gulp!
I've threatened to take Ana shopping for wine round a French supermarket - I'll take you too!
You had a great trip - but you deserved some enjoyment and relaxation. I'm so glad you had such a good time!
Hugs
Ami
Yes I almost did dissolve...I actually covered up a giggle or two by saying ooooh I am ticklish!
DeleteTrue that it isn't the first person we tell. It is like the game of telephone.....
We really had a wonderful time!!
Sounds like she may have an inkling and doesn't mind at all. What a great friend she sounds like!
ReplyDeleteOh she is the best for sure. We are cradle cousins and friends. The best.
DeleteOh sooooo fun! So glad you had such a great visit with your friends!!! :-) You had me giggling here. Thanks for spreading the joy. Hugs, Terpsichore
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful. I am so thankful I was able to go!! Hopefully we will not wait so long next time!
DeleteI just found your blog wanted to stop in and say hi..
ReplyDeleteshe might just think u have kink..other wise she wouldn't have said she spanks harder lol..anyway can't wait to get to know u better :)
Hi Daisy!
DeleteYea I think you are on the money! No matter what she is always there!
She knows. Lol! I think she likes that you two don't delve into the nitty gritty, and share only fun, suggestive innuendos. I also think she knows that whatever it is she "knows," or suspects and imagines you do, your demeanor tells her it's good for you. I think she would press for details only if she became concerned for you.
ReplyDeleteFoot massage causes slipping out of your sandals?!! Thanks for the heads-up. Wow. Just - wow. ;-) Seriously, I'm glad you didn't break an ankle!
Hugs, dear Tipsy McGee! ;-)
That sounds perfectly right! She doesn't care about the nitty gritty unless she was afraid for me. Plus she ADORES my Scotsman!
DeleteTipsy McGee signing off! lolololololol
