When we got to our room, I caught my wife pleasuring herself in the shower, which has never happened before. In fact, she’s pretty much given upon sex. I called her out on it and she mentioned that her massage included a happy ending and she had not cum so hard in years. Of course, the closest I got was having my butt cheeks massaged. I felt ripped off and all she said was “maybe next time.” She was a few steps up and leaned against the door frame. The light coming in from behind me did light up the place nicely and I could see side boob and curly hair.Imagine your best selling novel being transformed into a huge tv series in the USA. That's what happened to Alexandra Potter, author of Confessions of a Forty-Something F-Up!

When she lands the only job she can find – writing obituaries, Nell starts getting life advice from an unlikely source.” Before I had my son, sex with my husband was very vocal. I’m talking moaning, screaming, shouting, like something out of a dirty movie—but with love. Now that our son is old enough to start asking a lot of awkward questions about all the noise, I’ve had to tone things down. But every so often I have to let myself go. We head to the bathroom—my favorite private place in the house—and turn the faucets on full blast to mask any noises. As it turns out, the feel of warm water running down my hands has become a real turn-on.” —I.R., 43 The inspiration for NOT DEAD YET, ABC’s “Most Watched Comedy Debut in More Than Four Years” ( Deadline ) My wife and I just returned home from a much needed 10 day vacation on the beach in Mexico. Having been traveling most of the day, we were tired when we arrived at our hotel and decided to head to the beach for a massage. Within in minutes we were both laying on tables overlooking the beach and listening to the waves. We were only about six feet apart with cool towels covering our faces. Every now and then I could hear my wife moan, which I assumed was from the massage. Meanwhile, my massage was okay, but nothing to moan about. A novel for any woman who wonders how the hell she got here, and why life isn't quite how she imagined it was going to be. And who is desperately trying to figure it all out when everyone around them is making gluten-free brownies.

Her latest novel, Confessions of a Forty-something F##k Up, has now been turned into a tv series by Disney+ for ABC in the States, starring Gina Rodriguez as Nell. The show premieres on 8 February of this year. It would take time for that grandma feeling to come, which didn’t bother me as much after I had Avery to cuddle and spoil. When I had him and my kids around, we just felt like family. The grandma feeling didn’t really come until Avery started calling me “Nana.” Well, he started as “Nah Nah,” probably a play on my name, which he heard from his dad and grandpa, and “mama,” which he heard his mom call me. By then, he was nearly a year old. I had found my role as grandma in just bonding and spending time with him and doing our own activities, which were not always things expected of grannies.At a certain age, women start to become invisible, despite the fact they have so much to offer which is one reason Alexandra made sure she included older female characters in her novel.It does not matter if you are in Yorkshire, London, or LA all women have similar relatable experiences and feel the same about things.The way society works makes most people feel like failures when, in reality, they are not failing.It´s never too late and you are never too old to change and do what you want.BEST MOMENTS Despite my trepidation, I spent Chloe’s entire pregnancy helping her through as much as I could. She was due on March 15, 2018, and we discussed breastfeeding, postpartum depression, stretch marks and so much more. Chatting, shopping and prepping for the baby (a son who would be named Avery) helped alleviate my own blues, but it did nothing to help me feel like a grandma.
