Friends Trip

As you know, I recently took a little trip to San Diego and I didn’t go alone, LOL..  Rob and Angel went with me and we had such a great time.   One of Angel’s friends suggested we go see the Seals and Sea Lions in La Jolla.  (Thank you Windsor, it was amazing)  We checked into our hotel and then headed over to the beach.  It was amazing seeing all of the seals and sea lions and them moving about the beach and making noises..  I am so glad we went.

Day two we had drinks with a friend of ours and then headed off to Cardiff Beach for a bit before heading back to our hotel to get ready for the concert.   The concert was so much fun, but I have NEVER been around so much second hand pot smoke!!   After the show we hung out with our friends at the bar of their hotel for a bit before heading back to our hotel.  

It was a short trip, but so much fun with great friends!!

Changes on my site (AND a special)

I thought it was time to make some changes to my site and I am hopeful that you will enjoy this news.  As you may or may not know, I have had my site for 19 years and I have met some truly amazing people through my site.  People that I know will be with me long after I am no longer on the web… Now don’t get nervous, I am not going anywhere, LOL..    I just thought it was time that I give back to my members, for those that have supported me over the years and even those that might have just found me.  So what are the changes I am talking about???  MORE updates….

Starting in August, I will now be updating my site THREE times a week, yep you read that correctly…  Let me tell you what my plans are for us..  Starting with my update that will go up later this week, my regular update will be on Thursday.  So every Thursday I will have a new set of pics or video for your enjoyment.   

In addition to my Thursday updates, I am going to be doing Selfie Saturday!  Every Saturday I will post a set of selfies, it might be a series of pics that I took or a compilation of pics I have taken.  Now the selfie sets, could be 40 pics or it could be 15…  It will vary, but will be something new EVERY Saturday..

Lastly, another addition… Member Monday!  Member Monday will kind of be like what we use to do as a Picture of the Week.  This might be a free pic with like 10-15 more on the club side or it my be a short video.  Not a full video like my regular updates, but like a 3 – 4 minute thing.  I don’t think it is fair to you as a paying member of my site to get a four minute or less video for a regular update, you deserve more than that, at least I think so..

REMEMBER… I do an hour cam every Monday for my members and as a member of my site, you get access to ALL the cam shows on the VNA site.

I started an OnlyFans page recently.  Here I will be posting outtakes from old sets that were never posted as well as recent out takes and selfies that I do not include in Selfie Saturday.  

As always, you can reach me via email or twitter (I have closed my SnapChat)… so please, don’t be a stranger, I am here for you, hehe.

Now that is a LOT of Dawn Marie to take in during one week, LOL, hope y’all can handle it, hehe.

Thank you again for all your support and encouragement, without you there would be no site!!!

Oh, if you are not a member of my site and have been on the fence.. I have a special for a couple of days… SIGN UP TODAY  for just $12.95 and then just $15.95 monthly afterwards..

New Summer Salad Recipe

I made this and loved it!!!

Summer Corn Salad

3 TBS Olive Oil (divided)

1 TBS lime juice

1/4 tsp salt

1 1/2 C fresh or frozen corn, thawed

1 1/2 C cherry tomatoes, halved

1/2 C finely chopped cucumber

2 TBS minced fresh basil

1/3 c crumbled feta cheese

2 TBS Italian Dressing (optional, I used it)

Whisk together 2 TBS of oil with lime juice and salt in a small bowl and set aside.

Cook corn in remaining oil until tender.

Pour corn into a large bowl, cool slightly and then add tomatoes, cucumber and basil.  Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Right before serving, drizzle with dressing, feta and Italian dressing (if desired) .

ENJOY!! 

The heat is on..

OMG our weather last week was crazy!!  I mean come on, 120 degrees is insane and it is bad when you look at the forecast and you are looking forward to a day at 104 degrees, LOL.  But I don’t live in AZ for the summer, so I will be miserable for a few months and then LOVE our weather, LOL.

So, what is going on???  We are super busy with our sites and expanding them, if you haven’t checked them out, please do so as I’m sure you will find something or someone you like.  Dawn Marie, Our Naked Secrets, Blow Bang Girls and Bathroom Creepers and another site coming very soon…

Something new I have been doing is OnlyFans it is a membership based site that I share some everyday life pics that I will not share anywhere else and also outtakes from Photo shoots that were never posted on the web before..  So this is exclusive content for OnlyFans.

I’m going to Chicago in a couple weeks, I’ll be there for my birthday.  Can’t wait to see my family and my grandson, he is getting so big.  The end of July we are going to San Diego to see the Violent Femmes, super excited about this show as it is always a great show.   We have a trip in early Sept to LA for a graduation and other than that, no other summer plans that I am aware of at this moment, but that is always subject to change, lol

We had a break from the snakes in the house for about two weeks.  Tucker somehow ripped one of his claws off and that kept him laying around the house.  That ended yesterday when I looked outback and there he is with a snake…  UGH!!!!

If you are reading this, please take a moment and answer my new poll question to the right, LOL..

Hope you all are having a wonderful summer, stay cool and hydrated!!!

Great weekend

Had a great weekend here in Phx..  We had a friends daughter graduate from HS and they had a party that we went to.  It was super hot, but great to hang out with friends.  We have a really great group of friends and it is always nice to spend time with them..  No bs, no drama, no one needing to be the center of attention.  Look forward to getting together with them soon.

Last night I made an amazing pasta salad, probably the best I have ever made..  I’ll post a pic below, but this was what was in it…  Bowtie pasta, those little tomatoes, fresh parsley, fresh spinach and the tossed with a vinaigrette dressing and then I served it with crumble feta and choice of toasted walnuts or pine nuts.. It was really good.   For the party I made a Caprese pasta salad.. pasta, little tomatoes, basil and those tiny mozzarella pearls they are called and toppped it with a balsamic vinaigrette.

Just believe it is!!!

Pre-party… Yes always the DD.

Love this girl like a sister!

My yummy salad!

On my soap box!

One of my BIGGEST and I do mean BIGGEST pet peeves is when people do not use manners!!  Sometimes I believe it is just me and I have had this discussion with Rob, I think I expect too much from people sometimes.   But damn it, common curtesy should not be one of those things…   

I try my very best to be a grateful person and I believe I have passed that onto my kids.   If someone does something for you, you should express your gratitude to them.  It doesn’t matter if it is in the work place or in your personal time, manners has no boundaries. 

If you would like someone to do something for you, a PLEASE is always helpful.  Again, it doesn’t mater if it is in the work place or your personal life…no boundaries in good manners.   When you simply ask for something without adding a please or a thank you, it can come across VERY condescending.  And I am going to call you out on that shit..   

Now like I said, I may expect too much, using good manners should never be expected, it should just be how you live your life and you teach your children.

Ok, I’m over my rant for now… but in the next month you know you are going to see some Words Of Wisdoms regarding this, LOL…. 

Thank you for taking the time to read my rant… 

Cheers, DM

My latest DIY project.

I have been wanting to find these old metal chairs for my yard, like chairs I had in my yard growing up.  Well I found two on craigslist and then kept searching for two that I really remembered growing up and I found them.    So, I had four chairs to clean, sand, repair rust marks/holes, sand again, clean and take apart to paint…  I so LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the way the turned out..  Below is before and afters of the chairs, also a baker’s rack we have on the porch..

Spring is almost here…

Apology to my Members

I want to sincerely apologize to my Members.  I offer my Members a weekly cam how as part of their Membership and this past week I had to cancel.  I had to cancel because of a Dr’s appt.  I know things will come up, just as they do for you, but when I promote cam as part of your membership, you deserve to be updated when it is not going to happen.  

Last week my schedule was all out of wack!!  I cancelled on Monday with notice on twitter as we were going to a Spring Training game.  I rescheduled that cam for Thursday.  On Tuesday I call my Dr’s office to confirm my lab appt on Wednesday and my maintenance treatment the following day.  Some how my Thursday appt got mixed up and they had me for the 16th.  That would not due as it would then throw my May appt off and I am going to Chicago of the 6th.  As you know I go every 8 weeks for maintenance treatment.  The treatment is to slow the growth of any cancer cells I may have.  Anyway my appointment time got pushed back to later in the day and I am literally at the office for like 5 hours and knew it would be rush to get home and get set up, so I rescheduled for later in the month.  I was hoping to get something posted, but I was just not able to and for that I apologize.    

By the way, my lab work all looks great!!  Once I hit the two year point, they will monitor me with labs and scans, woohoo!!  But I am doing GREAT and FEELING great.

Anyway again I apologize, you deserve to get what you pay for and to just cancel last minute or week after week is unacceptable.   Below is my schedule for the rest of March and I hope to see some of you there!!!

Monday  3/13 5 PM (AZ time)

Monday  3/20 5 PM (AZ time)

Monday  3/27 5 PM (AZ time)

Thursday 3/30 4 PM (AZ time)  this is my rescheduled show from the week of 3/5

Remember you have access to ALL the VNAlive shows every single week, not just mine.  All you have to do is log into the Members area of my site www.dawnmariesdream.com and follow the VNAlive links.

Thanks for all your support!!!

XOXO Dawn Marie

What a new year…

Well guys, so sorry that I haven’t posted in a long time, shame, shame on me..  I am up all by myself right now and I had to turn the heat on, LOL, it was 67 degrees in here, that is chilly, lol.

So, what has been knew with me??  If you follow me on twitter than you know, if not, I’m going to fill you in on the last week…

Sunday Morning Rob and I made the most difficult decision and we said goodbye to our beloved Leo, I often called him Leo-Kitty.  Leo was our very first can we welcomed into our home and from there we ended up with four.  Leo was a sweet kitty, but became ill the last few years.  He started pulling his hair our in big chunks.  After two visits with two different vets if was determine that Leo had serious gum disease.   Even with surgery that was the upword side of 2K and they were not sure that was even what was causing it we decided to put our 10+ year old cat down..   It was one of the hardest things I have ever done, but I was there with him until the very end.

Then there was the Cowboys game, ugh!!!  We played a good game, just came up a little short this year.  I am so very proud of my team and I look forward to next year!!!  No I hope Atlanta can win it all!!!

As you know, my younger brother passed away unexpectedly in 2015.  The peace sign has kind of become our symbol for him.  He snuck and got a tatt of a peace sign on his legs and hid it from my parents.   So I had a niece and nephew that got tatts last year and I decided to go out the other day and get mine.  It is a little larger than what I wanted, but I let them talk me into it, LOL.  The color will lighten up a bit as it heals they told me..  But I love it!!

Lastly, yesterday was the official due date of my new grandson.  This is our first and I am so truly excited I can not wait!!  I am headed to Chicago next week to either wait for his arrival or meet him.  And if you join me for my Members Cam, I am cancelling the show on 1/30 and the week after I rescheduled for later in the week..  

Now if you notice I have gone more than a week posting to my blog, please send me an email and give me some shit about it, LOL..  I’ll send you a special pic and then get right on a blog post!!  

Thank you all for your continued support and I hope the recent move from Dreamnet to OurNakedSecrets.com was difficult for anyone.  Rob and I are now 100% on our own.  WWW.blowbanggirls.com is going very well and we have two other sites that we are currently building.  So we are very hopefully that 2017 will be a very good one for us..  and good for us is good for you.

Until next time…..
