Back in the swing of things

Yesterday was Fathers' Day and the kids had a wonderful time shopping and making a wonderful dinner for their dad. My back was hurting and I was grateful that I could just rest and not create dinner as I usually do. I enjoy cooking but was glad the kids took on this festive event. When it was over everyone went their separate ways and my husband and I went to pick up our youngest from her job. She is learning to drive and she asked her dad if she could drive home and she was allowed to do so. I was feeling rather irritated because I just wanted to go home but I got into the back seat so I wouldn't tell her how to drive (famous last words). So I wouldn't come unglued if something went wrong. My husband is much better at remaining calm during this activity.

We arrived at a terribly congested intersection which was rather tricky and she was attempting a left turn when all of a sudden a car was coming towards us. That was it I couldn't do it anymore as the car approached I yelled out for her to stop and my husband told her it was ok that she could go. Well....I disagreed and said so. In his voice I picked up a familiar tone as he spoke with me but I blew it off.

Things seemed to go back to normal and when we arrived home I decided to lie down for a bit. My husband was sitting on the bed when he stuck his hand out for me to stop walking and he told to me that we had some business to take care of. He told me to bend over and I am like what? for what? He explained that it was because I was arguing with him in the car. I couldn't argue that point but I tried to get out of the spanking as I had felt poorly. He told me that he would help me forget about how I was feeling then I ended up over his knee.

He used his new implement, which is a wooden ruler, and I detest that thing. I wiggle around a lot as it hurts. He has remained firm with me and isn't allowing me to get overly stressed about things these days which I can do quite easily and I respect him for not givng in to me and for carrying on as he feels he should.

It was a couple of months in which he didn't spank me and that was difficult for me. I would ask him and he didn't know why but after discussing it and he read several of the Taken In Hand articles he is back in full swing. But what I really like is that he is in control and nothing is getting by him. Looking at his new implement it seems quite tame but it isn't it makes quite an impact on me and

I appreciate the result even though I hate the pain. I appreciate his control and his love for me. I look at the time without spanking as a learning time for both of us for me it was a frustrating journey but he has a good grasp on what it means to him and to me and he handles me without hesitation and with confidence. What a journey!

I think that's great!!!

Hi Kat,

I think your experiece is great!!! It made me feel good about lapses which might occur from time to time due to varing circumstances.

Being new to this and having some health problems myself I found it very frustrating recently when my husband took a break for my comfort sake during a health crisis. The whole week I felt on edge and I was moody and all around miserable and I made him that way as well. (although since Taken In Hand he did not show me his frustration)

I got rewarded for my bad behaviour with a good sound spanking but it was after I had recovered. I felt better and was glad he had resumed the punishing me when I acted up. However I was wanting him to take the reins even when I was sick as your husband did. He doesn't want to cause me anymore pain (and bless his heart for that) but I get stressed out when sick and it becomes a vivious cycle and I need correction then more than ever. I defer to his judgement on this as HOH of course and am happy about anything he does on his own when it comes to being Taken In Hand, but I'm going to read him your lovely article and see if the next time he will act on my bad moods then and not later.

Thank you for sharing. This was an experience that I think will benefit my homelife as well. I hope you get feeling better with your back as well. Take care Kat.
