well its been ages since I last posted here, so I thought id give it a shot to see if anyone is still around :)
not sure what to say really, its been so long, most of the time I just post to the homestead group.
Not much new to report, winter is coming on so we had to get new tires for the truck, and belive me when I say that was apinful on the bank account aswell. the price of tires has really really gone up in the last few years.
phew, the price of gold has just gone crazy the past few months, I just looked and its now over 1200 an ounce for the furst time in history.
each new day sees records for gold, and the scary thing is that its not due to it being more valuable, but the fact the value of the dollar has dropped that much :/

well it looks as if winter is finally going to arrive and stay this time, so I took the last warm day and did some badly needed work outside.
I made a few wire collars to go around some grape vines and then planted 7 of them that had been in pots till they got abit bigger.
I have tried to plant vines for several years in the last 2 rows in the vinyard, but as it got close to spring every year, I would find them chewed off at ground level.
It was soo annoying to see a vine hanging from the wires, and knowing it was dead :/
so this year I took the steps to make sure they would make it through, at least from the rabbits.
I also decided to dig up a few strawberry plants that had decided to grow outside of the arre that I had been growing them in for years. I had noticed that I had one that was growing in one of the elevated boxes aswell, so I decided to start with that one, and get the other 11 I wanted from the other spot.
Well, this one decided to be fruitful and multiply like mad.
out of just the one plant in the box, I got the original plant which now is in a 1 gallon pot, 34 new plants in 4" pots, and 7 new plants that hadnt rooted yet, bt i put them in a tray of moist soil to give them a chance.
When someone said be fruitful and multiply, this plant took it seriously :)
so now they are all tucked in new pots and are under the grow light till spring.
I also planted 3 magnolia trees that we have had for awhile and 7 raspberry plants that have been in need of a spot to go for far too long.
I also decided to bring in a piece of rooted mint so that I could get it going aswell, I want to make an herb garden next year, so I am ordering a few seed packets from different catalogs, plus moveing inside what I already had around here.
The garlic chives have really spred, and have to pull em up every sprin as they grow like weeds, plus I also pulled up the lavendar so it would survive the winter.
it looks like a jungle in the shop now from all the plants, and I havnt started on springs planting yet either.
I really feel such a strong urge to grow I cant wait for spring to roll around.
I have been buying bails of straw when we go out, so I will have a good supply of it in the spring for the garden, it really works to keep the weeds down
I just want to be able to grow as much as I can to have some to use, and put away, and then share all I have left with those who wont have, or dont have anything of their own.
I know we have really been blessed over the years, and i feel strongly that this is a way to give back.
im definatly not perfect, and not the best person I could be, but I am working to get better on that front aswell.
But thats it for the homestead report for now :)
Happy Holidays all.

welp, winter sure came early this year up here in the hills of west virginia.
So much for global warming :P
I took a few minutes and got some pics of a few things around here, including a pic of the stove we just got done putting in :)
Still have a pile of wood to cut before it gets much colder though.

Just wanted to post a poem here that my mate did for me.
He worked on this for a long time as an anniversary present this morning :)
It brought tears to my eyes, and I wanted to share it.
My Love of Thee Mine Sweetest Rose
I was a weary traveler, that traveled to and froe
I found a beautiful flower, a light in the darkness below
Oh how doest thou tempt my eye, My sweetest rose
In a sea of despair I found thee, You I chose
Thy bramble is thick and thorn, bind like chain
The flesh in fear I reached to thee, my eyes like rain
Oh my sweetest rose, I come to thee
From the prison of briar, To set you free
In mine outstretched hands,The vine doeth fight
I pluck thee my love, Hold you to the light
My world of monochrome hues, Dull shades of grey
Now the color of love radiates, Colors my day
In my coldness of stone, Thy warmth doeth sustain
Thine boldness of spirit free, From sorrows free from pain
Thou has sojourned with me, Traveld back country roads
Life learned trough thee, Uneven thou has carried the load
Oh how I hast mourned unworthy, To posses one such as thee
All around thy bramble protect, Hidden dangers that encroach me
My sweetest love a darkness comes, A cold wind unrelenting
Great sadness comes in waves, Joy fading once unending
In on the eveningtide waves of despair, Dreams broken on the sands
Oh how thy light doeth extinguish, I shall hold thee in mine hands
Oh how the winds whip thee, Refuge thyself within my walls of stone
I take thee inside myself protecting, There were thy light once shown
Fear not the storm I shall protect, Formed of iron forged in pain
Slumber within me mine love, Nourish thineself in my fount of rain
Travesties of tears bellows of wind befall, My love I cant lose thee
Evil longs for what I alone love, Though I may crumble and bleed
No storm nomatter foe, My rose is protected within mineself
Oh my love remember the good, Have faith in God and thy self
If I fall and flesh doeth fail, Keep in rememberance of me for short time then
My walls may come down, Wait for the warmth and the south wind
The sun shall rise to light thy way, Grow my sweetest love grow big and strong
Let out thy bramble let it grow all around, Vine and thorn sharp and long
To my sweetest rose I pass this wisdom, Remember the good but the bad have no room
Remember how it all started all the laughs and years, My sweet flower for me I ask bloom.

welp its nice and sunny here today, which is a nice break from how it has been.
Should give me a chance to get some more weeding done around the place today after we get back from shopping.
thats one disadvantage about living in the middle of nowhere is you have to travel 50 miles to go shopping :P
But id take it anyday over city life.
Ive gotta move alot of plants this fall so I can make it weasier to mow and weedeat.
im going to open a fruit stand in the spring. I already have the equipment and building for it, just havta get the lead outta my tail to make it happen.
Had to order a fan for the incubator, as the instructions say iw will give you alot better hatch rate than a still air model. also got the manual egg turner , so those should help with getting more chickens in the spring.
Im already chomping at the bit for spring and its just now fall :/
gonna be a long cold winter :/
I was reading my rootcellar book when I took my mate to the doc for a checkup yesterday, and some guy saw me reading it and asked if I was into it, and we struck up a conversation.
he told me his family always kept their crops seperated in the cellar, the onions, and apples and potatoes all in speperate corners, or they would go bad.
I know the apples give off a gas that causes other produce to mature faster and go bad.
So I will incorperate that idea in the design.
Just some useless info to share :)

just feels so odd in the world right now for some reason, like folks arent all there when you look at em.
and those we do know and talk to seem to be so angry inside, i dunno why, i just get that feeling.
not too much new to report about the house herre, we are still plugging along to get the house and shops ready for winter, gonna be cutting firewood next week, so well put up as much as we can. I got the cement to fix the woodstove as there was a gap in the oven part, and I didnt want everything to be covered with ash when I cook it :P
ordered a vid about a week ago, so im looking forward to it arriving in the next day or 2 :)
bout all I can think of, be well all.

I was up till 4:30 am last night working, so im still not all here.
Had to get up at about 9:30 cause the telephone repair men were here to install the new line.
It took them about an hour and a half but its all up now and then buried it where it goes into the house.
Now Ive got to wait a few more days for the repair man to come out and hook it all up, then Ill be back in business.
I figured out what was wrong with the washing machine, so that saved $300 from having to buy a new one :)
My garden is pretty much shot this year :/
The had a nice announcement on the news about a week ago, that some plants in this part of the country sold in walwarts and other stores has a nice little blight in then, and lo and behold I got one of em :/
My tomato plants were about 6' tall and loaded, and within days the blight has killed them all :/
Its so disgusting to see them now :/
I was soo looking forward to seeing how large they could get to be.
The disease that I got was the potato blight that killed so many irish folks long ago.
And the best part is..
they arent responsible for the damage they cause, so Im just outaa luck now with it :/
Oh well, Ill just focus my energy on work, and buy some canned food to makeup for what was lost, and not being able to grow it.
So im off for my cubs daily milking, then luch before work again :)
Be well all, and stay safe :)

crazy
Id been working like crazy, so I allowed myself an hour or so this afternnon after lunch to lay down and take a nap, its a rare treat these days.
It was pretty nice and cool today, had a high of about 80 and cloudy, so we layed down for a rest.
My dreams were very very vivid, and one of those where you really didnt want to wakeup cause it hurt.
well in my dream I was wandering along a long road that was almost totally deserted, it was here in the hills of WV, but in a place I didnt recognize.
well as I was walking along I could hear something that sounded like whimpering, so soft abd quiet, so I got off the road and walked in the tall brush following it.
I couldnt belive my eyes when I found the source. there on the ground before me were 4 very young cubs, 2 were white like polar bears, one was black and one was a brownish color.
i knealt over them to see if theye were alive, and to my relief they all still were, though they were so cold cause it was late fall. i picked them up and held them to my chest, under my shirt to try and warm them.
i could feel them shiver and whine cause they were so lost and hungry, so I did what i could and then i prayed to be given the strength to care for them, and keep them safe.
as my eyes were closed I could feel this warm light cover me, and when i came back from
the light, and opened my eyes I could see that I had been changed into a female polar bear, at first it felt so odd and strange to me, but then i lay down and pulled the cubs to me, and I could feel so vividly as they nursed, and I began to lick them, over the next few hours they grunted and groaned as the got full and were warmed in my long fur, it was if I could begin to understand what they were saying.
the furst night we stayed there like that in the tall grass, but I knew it wasnt safe so i left them there for a moment and was able to find a small cardboard box, and placed them inside it and picked it up in my muzzle and we got back on the road.
I kept looking for anything familiar so I could get back home, cause I knew there would be safety there as we didnt allow hunting on our land.
after abit i could hear them whimper as it was getting cold again, so i ducked down a side road that looked empty, and backed under an old mobile home as it looked deserted, and pulled them out one by one and held them close, then after they had settled down we all went to sleep.
in the morning I looked out and could see there were houses like this all over, and i stepped out in the early morning light and looked as far as i could in all directions, everywhere were signs of humans, no wild places to hide in.
i put them back in the box and we took off in a hurry, sticking to the deep brush as much as possible till we got to the top of the hill, so I could see better.
in every direction were houses and old abandoned farm land below me, but it was starting to look familiar. I set off toward home, and thats when i wokeup.
As I said, its one of those I didnt want to wakeup from as it was so real to me, and the feelings were so deep.
But I rose out of bed and got back to work, as the dream just showed me that my entire clan was/is depending on me to show the way and to take care of them.
For now it is just my cub mate and myself, but in time there will be more.
2-3 more is what I see in the future, but only time will tell.
Im trying to lead us down a road of stability here, not to be consumed like it seems the rest of the world is with chasing a wad of cash, but in taking the time to just be with one aonther, to focus on our communication and spending our time together.
Yes, we play some computer games as well as to watch a show with dinner, but we dont have cable nor cell phones, we have never really felt the need for them.
my cub works on his blacksmithing and on his artwork, as well as helping me with work when needed. I do gardening and tending to critters and general homestead upkeep.
but ive rambled on enough for today :)
Enjoy the dream if you like :)

well this is a furst, 2 posts in one day :)
Its been a fairly quiet day so far today.
My phone keeps ringing, but there is nothing at all I can do about it, my lines are so messed up I cant even see whos calling.
So im waiting for the contractor still :/
My washer all up and died about a week ago, so this is just fun.
I need to get a prt from a repair place, but they are in another town and close for the day at 3 pm, so its not easy to sccot over and get an estimate on the part.
lost another hen last night :/
but i did get one possum who was doing it, but there is eaither still another possum or coon.
I wish they would stay away, ive turned most of the land we own into a no hunting area, so it would be nice if they would just stay down in the woods.
now the rabits are chewing my tomatoes to the ground, digging up my potatoes and now chewing my watermelon vines back :/
seems like nature is really throwing us some curve balls this season.
still working with my cubs training, and its going along ok thus far, I know I need to do more with him, and ive got to find more time to do so.
now im off once again to go check on my cub and see he has done his chores, then its back to working on some silicone toys, then over here later tonight to get some stuff boxed up for a large shipment tomarrow.

this is an odd few days here on bearcat drive
Ive been up late night for aover a week now trying to catch what has been killing my chickens and ducks.
Its thrown off my schedule alot and has made me backed up even further now :/
Im busting my rump today to get as much done as i possibly can.
Im also still trying to work with my mate on his traning, but ive faeen behind in that aswell.ughhh
Im supposed to paw him at least once a day at lunch as part of his trainnig, but we have been so off ive missed the past few days, and this is a very very critical time indeed.
the furst few weeks will form the new relationship to a great degree, so thats a key to remember if you try this yourself.
ive been talking to a fur who is teaching me abit more about being Dom, so im a pupil again you could say :)
I want my pets to feel as I do when i speak to him, to have such a strong will and command of the situtaion.
Its not easy when he real world is pulling me in 50 different directions at once, but im slowly learning.
one tip to use on a sub/pet that ive learned is to have then do a short chant for you at different times, or when a word is spoken.
it sounds silly, but youd be suprised at how deeply the words can go when they repeat them.
we are gearing up to do a big shipment tomarrow, and some updates on the forum.
I need to setup a site just for furry Master/slave inifo.
I feel I could help some, and im always open to learning from others.
Even a Master should never think he knows everything there is to know.
At times what you dont know can be quite humbling.
ive gotten a few texts printed ut and a contract for my mate to sign, it just outlines what we expect and need from the other, and lists what rights the slave/pet has.
I need to post them so others can see and even do some input aswell.
Nothing has been signed yet, so he is still abit grouchy and doesnt do what hes told at times, just tells me he doesnt have to cause he hasnt seen the contract yet.
as my part of it, I have to provide for my clan/pack/pride
thus its time for me to get up off my butt and get to work, I have alot to do before we are ready to accept new members, and not much time left for the economy :P
be well all, and input is always welcome.

I want my pets to feel as I do when i speak to him, to have such a strong will and command of the situtaion.
Its not easy when he real world is pulling me in 50 different directions at once, but im slowly learning.
one tip to use on a sub/pet that ive learned is to have then do a short chant for you at different times, or when a word is spoken.
it sounds silly, but youd be suprised at how deeply the words can go when they repeat them.
we are gearing up to do a big shipment tomarrow, and some updates on the forum.
I need to setup a site just for furry Master/slave inifo.
I feel I could help some, and im always open to learning from others.
Even a Master should never think he knows everything there is to know.
At times what you dont know can be quite humbling.
ive gotten a few texts printed ut and a contract for my mate to sign, it just outlines what we expect and need from the other, and lists what rights the slave/pet has.
I need to post them so others can see and even do some input aswell.
Nothing has been signed yet, so he is still abit grouchy and doesnt do what hes told at times, just tells me he doesnt have to cause he hasnt seen the contract yet.
as my part of it, I have to provide for my clan/pack/pride
thus its time for me to get up off my butt and get to work, I have alot to do before we are ready to accept new members, and not much time left for the economy :P
be well all, and input is always welcome.

Welp
Its been a few days since we made the switch here and things are going pretty good thus far.
Ive got him on a regular routine to buildup his stamina.
I make him paw in the morning, then I slow paw him at lunchtime, then we paw together at bedtime
It can be fun to circle paw as he calls it, so we can talk about things that arouse us as we work eachother over.
I had to runout yesterday and do alot of shopping, groceries mainly, and I picked him up some lunch boxes and other small hings, so I can better manage what he eats.
Its important to me to take care of my cub, and this is one way, even if he doesnt exactly like how I do it.
Though it is necessary for our health.
Im teaching him to bow whenever I enter the room, and having to break him of the habit of wearing cloths in the house. I prefer my subs to be naked as much as possible.
It was funny, about a week before I become Dom and head of the household, we had a small struggle in ther living room :)
Was nothing bad, was more fun for us.
He was sitting in a computer chair reading an article when I came in and walked over, he turned and I grinned down at you, and he went to push me away so he could get up, but I didnt move, infact i got closer and closer, trying to kiss him as I grinned, he pushed more and more at me, but I held the back of the chair and was pulling as hard as I could, he just was grunting and trying to keep me away. finally I reached down and started to stroke him, and the more I did the weaker he got till I managed to reach his neck and bite it. He just whimpered and stoped resisting as i stroked his cock, he was so hard and dribbling.
i stood up for a moment to pull out my cock, then we went at it again, he really tried to push me away as I was grinning dowen at him, both our arms were shaking as we used all we had, but I got closer and closer, then the stupid chair broke :/
so we both got a good laugh out of it :)
I enjoy this type of play, as noone gets hurt and the adrenalin is rellay pumping when you do actually make contact.
Ive got to go over here in a few and get things ready for lunch, gotta make up his lunchbox :)
And yes, it does make me feel good when he calls me Papa Bear :P
Now ive got to type out the house rules, as well as do him a chore sheet.
I may have to make a seperate page and post them as downloadble files so other Doms could use and modify them for their own needs.
I can tell he is eager to learn, though he does have that feline stubborn streak that I have to deal with :P
But its ok, I just bring it out bit by bit and reshape it to what I need.
I told him by the time it was done, Id be proud to parade him infront of other Doms so they could see my work.
even joked and told him that I might have a Dom/sub fur couple over, and Id have my cubs serve us. All naked :)
One in the kitchen working on food, one putting it on the trays, and one carrying the trays on thir back as they came in on all fours, padding slowly and gracefully so as not to spill anything, moveing between us as we snacked and talked.
Perhaps even letting the other Dom pat their rump when he was done with eating.
But thats just a random Dom thought from me, though my cub likes the idea :)
Aside from work, thats pretty much it.

Well it turns out this bear isnt so subby after all :P
Yes, im still a bottom, though a Dom bottom.
That just means that I have subs/pets, but at times I will order them to mount me, as I like tail play. and they know that even if they get abit carried away with the scratching and biting, then when its over, they belong at my feet again :)
Im working on getting Silicone caught up this weekend and will also be starting my mates training, this will be fun :P
I intend to make him into a show sub, oe id be proud for another Dom to see.
And thatll take alot of training, so we have our work cutout for us :)
It took a great deal of trust for him to do this, so I am trying my best not to harm him in anyway during this stage, though he will be trained as a sub should, even if that means I use a paddle :P
Now I just need to work on a list or rules, and then one of a list of expectations, and hes doing a list of his expectations aswell, so we will see how those go together.
as he is a cubbish fur (not a baby fur), I will treat him as such, so he will get a list of chores/duties to perform, and each day he does them, he gets a gold start on the board, when he gets enough, he can trade them in for certain things yet to be determined.
its a good idea to keep your sub/s always striving for more, and to please you.
but I have rambeled enough, its time for this Bear to get his tail back to work, so he can do better for his family :)
Be well all.

well i had mentioned that i would post my dreams here, so here goes :P
I will start by saying that I have been followed for years by something that I cannot see, and before you say I need meds, other have seen/heard it aswell :P
whatever it is sticks to the shadows almost all the time, never being seen except for an ocassional light as if you were looking into the eyes of an animal, then they vanish.
it can be all the way on the ceiling one time and the room is filled with a presence, or careing at other times and the eyes are low, as if crouced down and almost whimpering.
It has been with me for about 12 years now, and though i did seem to escape it for awhile when i came across country it returned when i kept dreaming of it, almost as if my dreams were a beacon.
it has come to me in the night several times, and i can physically feel it touching my arm or legs as i try to get to sleep.
at first it terrified me, and id wake up screaming as would my mate, as he has also felt it near him.
over time i have accept it, and have even enjoyed its compnay now, as if it were watching over me as i slept now, the bad feelings are gone.
well as i was trying to get to sleep one night, and had been very horny the entire day, i could hear a creek on the floor and i froze, not opening my eyes, just listening. i heard a deep breathing, as it got closer and closer, then i could feel it over my ear, then the slow licking of lips. i didnt know wetyher to scream to stay still, so i remained motionless.
the sound went away, then i felt a large paw slide under my blanket and over my hip, as i had my rump toward the edge of the bed and was naked, as i always sleep that way.
it was firm but slow as it tugged me to the edge og the bed, and before i knew it i was hanging in mid air, partially out of the bed.
i then felt a sheath press to my crack and then the warm tip of a canine cock poke into me, and ease its way inside, it felt like it was a foot long before i felt the knot poke inside so tenderly, and begin to inflate. he started to thrust into me, bouncing the bed abit and my mate rolled over and made a noise, he got still and just remained as he inflated fully, it hurt at first but i was too afraid to move and also extremly aroused. he felt as if he were the sixe of the grandpup.
after abit of tugging, he started to go down and then poped out of me, i then was pushed slowly and then covered back up, my cock was dripping a puddle of pre as i felt a massive paw on my back, then is slid over my rump and was gone.
the next day i was bleeding abit from my tail and was sore for awhile and had alot of clear fluid in and on me back there.
it was a night I will never forget, and he has come back to me a few more times, once again as a wolf and i got to feel his sheath for a moment before my mate woke up quickly and satup in bed as he could feel someone i the room, and once recently as a dragon, deep dark red and sitting ona throne, holing a long leash, his words so deep and his ways so familiar to me. but noting happend as i was awakened by dogs barking :P
so those are a few of my more interesting dreams/experinaces.

had some really odd dream last night and its hard to interperate, so i will just lay it out here.
in my dream I was gardening and digging in the soil, i kept digging cause i heard a voice inside me telling me to go just abit further, abit further, until i came across what looked like a blue pipe about 4" in diameter. the voice again guided me to touch the pipe and so i did, and when i did i could feel it mmove and it began to change color to a greyish black and started to sprout small scales.
i released it and it went back to blue, then i climbed in the hole where noone would see and touched it again and again, feeling the more i did the more it moved and changed. it began to move side to side and told me to slip both paws around it, so i did, and i squeezed abit and i could feel the muscels inside of it in my paws, it was odd, but both in my dream and rl i had a huge stiffy and was dribbling.
finally it asked if i was ready and so i said yes, and it pulled free at one end and i could see it was a dragons tail.
i fell back abit in he hole from suprise, but didnt let go for fear of loosing it. it coiled around my waist then my arms, the tip of the tail flareing abit and looking like a snake in a way, but without the head.
it pressed to my lips and i could see what it wanted, it wanted to be inside of me, and me to become part of it.
so i began to lick the tip of the tail and the scales started to turn a bright green as i parted my lips and began to swallow, feeling it move about inside my throat..
thats when i woke up kinda shaking and hard as a rock.
not sure what it meant, but was very interesting dream to say the least.
now where did i put my shovel? ....

whew, it has been an unusual few days here..
ive really really been frisky here as of late, and my mate tells me it sounds like ive got spring fever bad.
im not use to experiancing it as i lived in the desert and it was hard to tell one season from the next, but right now it feels as ive ive gotten a huge shot of testosterone and im going crazy!
i feel like i want to Dom everything that comes near, and ive practiaclly worn out my mate and am still looking :P
i jumped him yesterday afternnon and molested him for over an hour till he couldnt even move.
i sit and tremble when i wakeup because of how many hormoes seem to be racing through me, and it feels like a drug, the more i get the more i desire...
so im off to go poke about and see who turns up on here and see what i can get away with ;)
be well all, and have a great day.
oh, and today we get to go to marietta to a flea market for abit before we hit lowes, they have birch beer and sasparilla, so i get some soda today :)

hiya all
considering posting mini stories to my posts for folks to read.
what do yall think?
not much to report here aside from work and more work.
got lots of rain the past few weeks and the garden is got lots of weeds in it :/
and the bunnies were nice enough to pull my peas off the fencing and eat them to the ground. and it ticks me off as this was my furst time trying to grow them, and they actually had alot on em.
the lettuce was growing like crazy, and then like a light switch they stopped a few weeks ago and havnt grown abit more :/
so its time to rip em out and put in squash or peppers.
