any thoughts?

Last week was great.  I really can't wait for summer!  It was so nice to sleep in and not have to worry about watching little ones.  It was also great to be able to leave the house and not be tied down with a little one.

Still not much to report on the spanking front.  Bossman has been talking about it a lot.  Of course, we've had the little man home all week, so that put a damper on the spanking.  Also, he mentioned that he hates thinking that every time we are alone he has to spank me. 

I can understand that.  Since we found out the little man can hear everything going on in our room, we are afraid to try anything, including spanking. 

How do you all combat that?  Anybody have any good ideas?  We are also thinking of some other forms of discipline.  Nothing drastic, but something that could motivate me to get things done and not laze around on the computer all day.  Any thoughts on that? 

Do you use any other forms of discipline?  How do you maintain a spanking relationship with children around?

I could really use some ideas!

Thanks!

I think I'll watch that

Bossman and I were looking over the TV schedule when we came across this:

I'd like to watch the one in the middle please.......

I have no title.  I really have nothing to write about. 

Yesterday I went to my nephews t-ball game.  It was super cold, I think my butt froze off.  Metal bleachers, not good.  Then we went to dinner with my brother.  I don't hang with my brother very often and the funny thing is, he lives right around the corner.  But we each have busy lives and so we just don't get to hang much.  Last nights dinner was nice.  We talked and laughed and had a good time.

Spanking?  What is that?  I haven't had one since the last one I wrote about.  I guess that means I've been a good girl...LOL or that means Bossman has been busy.  Either way, it makes me cranky.

Why should it make me cranky to not have a spanking?  Most "normal" people would think it would make a person cranky to get a spanking.  So why am I so cranky to not have one?

Bossman and I have been talking lately about stuff.  This may surprise you but Bossman and I don't have a lot in common.  We don't like the same kind of music.  I like to read, he doesn't.  He likes to watch sports, I don't.  He likes racecars and like to go racing, I find it a complete waste of time and money.  Heck, we don't even like watching the same tv shows.  (Well, there are a couple we can agree on.)

It's amazing that the two of us have stayed married this long.  I often wonder what makes him stay with me.  I used to think it was just the kids.  But I've come to realize that he does love me.  Thank goodness for that. 

Well, what's going on with you?

I'm still alive and there was a spanking

I'm still alive and I still have a cough so really I'm only half alive because JEEZ I'm sick of coughing.

How was that for a run-on sentence?

So, how's life?  Mines good.  I'm frustrated with the girl I babysit for.  She is annoying the bejeesus out of me.  She tells me a couple of weeks ago that I wouldn't have to babysit this week because her hubby would be off work.  GREAT!  I was so excited to have a week to myself.  THEN, on Thursday of last week I confirmed that this was the week and she was like...OH, I need to you watch her because hubby will be staying home to clean out the garage.

Clean out the garage????

GAH!

I was so pissed.  But damn-it, I'm too nice.  I can't say no.  I hate that about myself.  Why can't I be more mean?

Well, all is not lost, in 2 weeks the mother will have spring break and I have told her I will NOT babysit that week. 

Also, I've decided I'm not going to babysit anymore.  I'll finish out the school year and then I'm done.  I haven't told the mommy yet, but I will.  I've considered telling her I could do it part time, like 2 or 3 times a week, but I will not do it everyday.  I'm sick of sitting around the house everyday.  I need to get out and do something useful.  I haven't decided what that will be, but I have a lot of time to think about it.  So, I'm definitely looking forward to summer.

Of course, summer will probably put a damper on the spanking, but there isn't much I can do about that situation, unless I ship the boy off to summer camp.  Which....now that I think about it....that is a GREAT idea!

Speaking of spanking.....

I got a doozy on Friday.  Here's the back story.  The last couple of weeks I have either been hurting with the neck, or I've been sick with the cough.  So, Bossman didn't really get on me for the rules.  Friday, I was feeling better.  Before we got out of bed, I woke up crabby, we had a bit of a argument.  Bossman got pissed and left for work. 

Bossman showed up at home right before the little one was heading home.  I asked what he was doing home so early and he said he was here to spank me.  HUH!  I wasn't really expecting THAT!

After the little one left, he took me into the bedroom and started lecturing.  He was upset that I hadn't done much that day and he was really upset with how I had treated him in the morning.  He brought out the wooden spoon and went to town on my butt.  He lectured as he went and WOW, it hurt.

The great thing about it was things were better after we were done.  I was in a better mood, he was in a better mood and we just carried on.  He left me home to do my chores while he went to pick up the little man from school so I had time to think by myself. 

Really I just thought how lucky I am!
