Where did the summer go?

Man this summer is flying by! It doesn't help that school is starting almost a week ealier than I thought.I should pay more attention lol! That means lots of school clothes shopping ugh!The two little ones aren't so bad,but T is way difficult! Gotta love teens.She's a jeans and t-shirt kinda girl(wonder where she gets that from)but I want her to have cute t-shirts at least.Hopefully she will be set before school starts lol! I was really hoping to home school this year...so I'm a bit bummed.We decided with the economy and lack of job security it was better to hold off.Shannon also wants to give J a chance in the new jr.high/high school first.All I can hope is the change is what he needs.The 6th grade also got moved up this year...not so comfortable with that.I think the kids are a bit to young to be thrown in with the older kids and all that comes with that.We will see it will be a year full of changes that's for sure!

We found out recently some friends of ours are getting divorced.They have been a couple since high school and have two kiddos....so sad. I have spoke with the wife a few times and she is clearly devastated.It's tough I just don't really know what to say.

Two in a row..wow!

No not two spankings in a row,two post lol!

Shannon and I had an interesting talk yesterday.We were actually talking about another couple were the guy brought DD to the women and now they are struggling a bit.Shannon and I like to say we stumbled onto DD together.Many moons ago when we were married about 6 months or so Shannon spanked for the first time.I was shocked to say the least and I did pack my bags.Mostly because at the time I didn't know what else to do,but I never felt like it was some big terrible thing he had done.I knew almost instantly that it worked...as for why it works, I still don't know to this day lol!I have always kinda dealt with it by saying it works for US and leaving it at that.Over the last couple years I have started to have this battle within myself of hating the fact that I do need this.

To make a long story short during our talk yesterday Shannon was saying that we both know I'm wired for this and if I would just own that it would make things much easier.I totally agree with him, in a way we are lucky in the fact that we are both wired so there shouldn't be as much insecurity with it.....not always the case though.I'm going to do my best to just be honest with myself and him about my needs.He however came up with something he would like for me to do.Twice a month I have to ask for a spanking one can be simple and for anything I want and the other has to be on the serious side.The good part is I can let him know by text or a note on his pillow.I don't actuslly have to say the words phew! Not doing this twice a month will be punishable though YIKES! I'm still not sure how I will ever be able to do this but I'm going to try real hard.

Now I need a recording that says 'you can do this'lol!

I really don't know when to shut up!

I need a tape recording constantly saying 'shut-up Misty'.We got a bill in not long ago that was on the high side and I was supose to call and find out about it like three days ago.So here is the convo this morning:

him:Why is the bill so high?

me:I don't know it's probably charges from before we changed the plan.

Him:Yea but why so much,the long distance was only 30 something?

me:I DON'T KNOW Shannon I can't explain the bill I don't understand it myself.I'll just call them.

him:You need to. You should have done it three days ago.

me:I KNOW!

him:Well you didn't do it!

ME:FINE I didn't!

So I go call and get it as fixed as I can and while I'm on there I decide to find out what I should do with the extra box they sent me(I was supose to call a couple weeks ago and forgot!)I swear that's the only part of my like 20 minute conversation with the lady that he heard.I get off the phone and his first question....So you never called about the box like I ask you to?I tell him I forgot and start cleaning fast.I guess hoping he'd forget all about it.He doesn't forget and tells me he is going to spank me for my 'attitude' that morning and begins to lecture about not sending the box back.At some point in the talk I say WHATEVER .....Not a good idea!He tells me my spanking will be much worse now,although not in those exact words.

The kids go swimming(which they always do when I don't need privacy)I always no it's not going to be good when HE drops my pants ugh!He lectures me about how he isn't going to put up with my attitude and something about if I ever say whatever to him again......I don't really remember that part my bottom was already on fire!After he felt he made his point, he tells me to go get the strap and finishes with that.He did show some mercy because I went and got it without complaining...Have I mentioned I hate the strap with a passion!

Why is it I always see where I went wrong after the fact,but in the moment I'm clueless.

We did have a lovely date.We went to a peaceful dinner and then to the park to feed the ducks. We had a nice talk on the way home and some new things are on the horizon. I may post about it later(or maybe not lol!)
