The Beginning

There are so many wonderful blogs I have read and kept up with that gave me the strength to become comfortable with who I am. I would have liked to follow many from the beginning of the journey and that being the case I thought I should start mine from just that....the beginning. It took me a long time to get here but I am excited for what the future holds.

Do you have your phone?

Six months ago I would have never imagined how much distress these five words could cause. The minute I hear them I panic, my mind immediately goes to me over his knee or bending over something else ass bare and paddled or whipped and crying. I realize the logical reaction is for me to just look for the damn phone which I do have 99.9% of the time. Admittedly just a few weeks earlier I probably would have only had the phone  75% of the time but hey it's progress.

Then yesterday I really, really screwed up. To start off I didn't do something Master had been asking me to do for a while. I was avoiding it because it was uncomfortable and time consuming and that is just how I sometimes usually handle these things. He called me at work and told me to send him back the list he had originally sent me and next to each line item he wanted a Yes or No as to if it was done. If it was a NO he wanted it in bold letters and marked with exclamation point. Joy! I hesitantly sent it back quickly realizing there was not a hell of a lot done. The reply..... disappointed little girl. In our dynamic disappointment = punished. Wonderful.

We talked a few times after that and much to my surprise it appeared I was getting off the hook, I was just to get it done and we would move on. What? OK. I worked late and then had to run to the store to prepare for the much anticipated arrival of the Easter Bunny. My daughter called to ask me to hurry, she did not want to be with her dad (the ex) any longer than necessary and while talking to her that is when I heard it....the beep of a dying battery, Lovely. (My car outlet is currently not working).

I knew Master would freak....

1. My daughters were with the ex and if you have been reading you know the ex is not very good with one of the girls. Master paces until he knows she is returned unharmed.

2. I had to go pick them up at his house and he would have no way of getting a hold of me to make sure all hell did not break loose when I picked up the kids.

Crap! I called and could still hear the irritation in his voice from my misstep earlier in the day Here is how it went:

Hi Daddy, I am still at Walmart but I am leaving soon.

You're still there? Have you talked to the girls? 


Yes, "A" is upset I'm taking so long but I am going to check out in a minute. I just wanted to let you know my battery is dying and the phone won't be working for to much longer. I'm re

Irritation pouring through the phone......Did you lose the phone charger I gave you for your desk at work?  


No, I jus

Are you testing me? Do you not care about anything I ask you do to do? What is going on with you. You could end up on the side of the road with no way to get in touch with any one, he could freak out on you when you pick up the kids and you have no way of getting help. Fine, good luck with all that!

I dialed again hoping the phone would last a couple of more seconds, simultaneously fighting back tears, temper rising.

I am sorry I let the battery die, it was a mistake, you are being unreasonable (Yes people I actually said that) I can't believe you just hung up on me. What the hell is your problem? (Yep, said that too).

I cannot even give a play by play of the rest of the conversation because to be honest he was so irate I think I blocked it all out. I know I didn't say much else and I knew I was in some serious trouble. I remember him telling me he loved me before we hung up but I also remember thinking I was in for it.

I picked up the girls and went back to my house and here is the email I had:


lil girl


You came to me and wanted to explore something that was deep inside you. Something that was strong and powerful. Feelings of desire that u said you never had. Emotions and desires of something that would give me a power over you. Control...to have u obey and for me to direct....for me to love you and keep you secure. Protect you from anyone and everybody. To help you. Out of love and trust. To not abuse it or take advantage of it, but to create a smooth path into a somewhat rare relationship.
My position is supposed to make you feel secure, happy, content, trusting, loved, taken care of and many other good things; All out of respect for you. The immense respect I have for you as a person and for your body.


I don't ask much. As a matter of fact, I've been pretty lenient. I've considered all circumstances involved and tried to give u room to wiggle amongst the stress you have on your shoulders.
But when I just ask the simplest things, it upsets me. And it comes across as anger, but it hurt that what I say seems like it is not important enough to remember. And that's where the breakdown comes in. 


Yes you called me and told me. But the point is that it is an ongoing thing. Its a simple thing to remember my lil girl. Calling and telling me doesn't excuse the fact of it. Telling me I'm unreasonable isn't the right thing to say. 


If u are having second thoughts about what we are doing, then say it. cuz I'm all in now and you will have to be too. I love you very much babygirl. 


I replied through my tears and assured him this was what I wanted. We talked on the phone and then we talked in person. There is no punishment for the past 24 hours but moving forward there is no more wiggle room....apparently I hang myself with too much wiggle room.so:

For now on you will be ruled with an iron fist grounding/restrictions of certain liberties/lines its all the table. Those by themselves will be rare but coupled with something else because I know it will be more effective if  I do that and handle it the way I did before. (side note: before was not fun  and was due to my mouth, not the phone)


Yes Sir.

You know something else sometimes when you don't call me Daddy or Sir, I think you are not close......like your inching away, but since we started talking about this, you haven't......it's unacceptable. I am your Owner.


Yes Sir.

I love you.


I love you too, Sir.

OK, let's move on.


And that's where we are today. Just in time for the new triple leather strap to arrive in the mail and I feel ....

Very content, obedient and lucky and yes I know where my phone is. .

    1. I have to admit when I first read you did not have a phone I was a little envious but in thinking about it more I bet if I did not have a phone I would not be able to leave the house without escort, LOL. I can't win.

    2. Did I say I left the house without escort? LOL. My man has built in radar, I can barely get out of bed without him coming to find me. I timed him the other night when I did get up, it took all of 20 minutes, and he's a very sound sleeper. Be patient, you'll get used to it :)

    3. LOL, I do get used to it a little more each day. I'll let you in on a little secret...under all the right circumstances i sometimes find it endearing.

    4. It will become quite comforting over time, but I think you will get there :)

  2. His email was the sweetest thing! I know he was firm to you, but it looked like he did so very much out of love. It also looks like he has taken quite well to this lifestyle. Good for you two! :) Enjoy that "lucky" feeling, it is nice, isn't it? Warm fuzzies.

    1. He was firm but I knew he was right. He has joked with me that he is a control addict and that I have created a monster. I think it was there all the time and it was just never nutured. The other night he was looking at some marks on back after we played and he was shocked. He asked if it had hurt at the time and I said yep, it hurt like hell....he didn't even remember doing it which I could tell it bothered him. I assured him I would have safe worded him if it had not been OK, things are evolving quickly. It does feel good.

  3. Sometimes they can be exasperating cant they? lol but they are because they care and thats what we want isnt it? i get stroppy sometimes with my Master when i feel like his is nagging me and then i end up feeling really guilty because its not nagging, i want and need him to 'keep me in check' for want of a better phrase lol

    i loved the email and dare i say it but he is right lol but i figure you know that.

  4. Yes, exasperating is the perfect word. The email was very sweet and very effective in getting me back to where I needed to be. I felt like crap after I read it, I think it served us better than a real punishment spanking. He was totally right.

  5. Hate to be against you, but your Daddy is right! He's not asking unreasonable things of you. Good luck with being obedient. Believe me, I know it's not always easy. Hugs!

    Love,

    1. Kitty,

      You are right it is not always easy. I'm grateful that I have blogger friends like you that help me see me when I'm wrong. It's humbling but it also helpful in the long run.

  6. Phone issues are tough! Sounds like a stressful situation all around.

    My husband has never hung up on me, or I on him. We'd really be terribly hurt if it happened.

    I'm glad he explained his emotions so well.

    1. I was quite shocked when he hung up on me and man did it set me off. The email knocked me right down to size and made me feel quote horrible. The fact that I got off without a spanking actually made me feel worse. Hewas very clear that was never happening again.

  7. Hard to imagine that not long ago none of us had cell phones. If our car broke down, we pulled to the side of the road, and if we were on the freeway, we walked to the nearest call box. If we were on city streets, we walked to the corner and used what was referred to as a pay phone. We deposited a dime, and called the auto club phone number that was on the membership card in our wallet. We'd use a second dime to call home if we felt a need to do that. If no one answered. No one answered. Once upon a time we didn't have answering machines either.

    1. I must admit I miss those times. My parents recently purchased a cell phone for my 8 year old. I was not happy. Master of course was thrilled and thought she should definately have one in case of emergencies.

  9. I'm guessing you'll have your phone with you 100% of the time now...and charged too! Michael has never hung up on me, not that I can think of anyway. I have hung up on him before, not my best moments obviously. I think I've only done it once since we started doing ttwd though. As for wiggle room, sometimes I do better having some and other times I do better without any...just depends on the circumstances I suppose. I like that he sent you that email. :)

    1. Master actually did apologize to me for hanging up on me, which I was not expecting. It didn't save me from the spanking though. I do plug my phone in at work everyday now regardless of it need so tbe charged or not.

  10. It sounds like this is another step in your journey in the submissive lifestyle and a lesson learned. Good luck as you move forward. Sounds like he is going to give you the control you want and need.
