50 Shades of grey -My Bedroom Confession

February 13, 2015 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

50-shades-of-grey-humor

There has been so much controversy over the release of the Movie 50 Shades of Grey that I just couldn’t leave the topic of What goes on in the bedroom alone. I mean I love controversy.

More on 50SOG – Clearly more people watch T.V than read books as the book was released back in 2011. 4 years later and the hype has been re-created. Great Book? Great Movie? No probably not but a Great Publicist and marketing team. I won’t comment further on the movie cause well you know it has nothing to do with craft.

So this whole hype got me to wondering about what goes on in your bedroom, but you know with out the smut and loss of liberty. Here is my confession:

There is something I like to do in the bedroom. I prefer to do it alone but more often my bed is shared with multiple people not because I like it that way, but be cause I am forced, held hostage if you will to share my bed with others.

Sometimes I fantasize about doing it during the day, mostly around 1pm and sometimes I want to do it so much I have to force myself out of the bed just to function.  Have you guessed it ? Do you like it too?  SLEEP. All these people all over the net are talking about erotic sex in the bedroom and all I want to do is sleep at night. Are these people for real? where do they get their energy at the end of a full day?

I love to sleep, I think about it from the moment I get up. Some days it is the only reason i get out of bed is knowing I will be returning to this one place, this one moment of dreamy dream land. I often have to share my bed with my kids as they refuse to sleep in their own beds. They scream at 2am until my sleep deprived body can’t take it anymore.

The most amazing feeling is sleeping when they are not in the house to worry about. It’s like heaven! It’s like sleep but more like meditational trance where I escape to a whole other deeper realm of sleep.

I do however have issues with falling back to sleep and this is where the bath and body angle of my post comes in. (This is so my haters can’t blame me for not making it a CRAFTY post)

Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets (For When You Want to Scream into a Pillow)

Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster

Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.

That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.

What Are Calm Down Sheets?

These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.

They’re perfect for:

Rage coloring during a hot flash

Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly

Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils

Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative

Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause

There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
