So far, so good

My first day with my new schedule is going pretty well so far. I've had to do a couple things out of order to accommodate for other people in the house but so far I've gotten quite a bit done. I'm really happy with this system! I feel a lot more secure.

Anyway, I realize some people are probably at least somewhat expecting there to be some kind of racy content on this blog, since it's a D/s blog, so to apologize for the lack of smut, I'd like to offer you a couple of hot pictures of some cute boys making out.

Enjoy!

Behold the power of positive reinforcement

So I just got down on my hands and knees and scrubbed the kitchen floor with a sponge and a mixture of hot water and vinegar.

Wanna guess what it was that my owner suggested doing in the kitchen tomorrow afternoon that inspired this behavior?

Here's a hint: Tupperware party it ain't.

Good afternoon!

Hey all!

Just so you know, I added the donation button today. The craft pattern of the month is a cute crocheted lobster - I will be completing the pattern today and posting pictures tonight. You can go ahead and donate now if you want, and the pattern will be sent to you as soon as I get it typed up, or you can wait until tomorrow.

So, today, my projects are the following:
-Get the kitchen spotless. There are a number of dishes in the sink today.
-Take care of the houseplants, especially the rosebush, which is slowly returning from the brink of death due to an infestation.
-Clean the rat cage. They are stinky critters presently.
-Finsh and type the crocheted lobster pattern.
-Take a photo of the lobster.
-Make a dent in the laundry that is piling up.

Things that will be occuring soon are:
-A post detailing my training and daily schedule
-Some soapboxing on my feelings about being a submissive
-photos of lots of things
-How to make household cleaners that won't give you cancer
-An opportunity to write in with questions for me

I'll be back later!

• Pee, etc, brush teeth (use the sand timer)
• Computer on- check email, look at TDL (to-do-list)
  
• Animal husbandry
  
• feed and water the fats and birds
• water snakes if necessary, spray snake cages daily
• snake poop check, scoop if necessary
• ask self: "Does the fats' cage need cleaning today?" If yes, add to TDL
• 5 minutes or so at your altar, longer if you want. Ground and center yourself, and reaffirm to yourself daily your desire, commitment, and passion for your position. Find your focus for the day, and find a positive attitude. It is ok to come to me for support in this.
• CHECK-IN #1- 1 PM
  
• Daily Morning Kitchen Routine
• play music if you are feeling draggy
  
• coffee, breakfast for us
• vitamins
• dishwasher- empty/load as necessary
• shine the sink
• wipe down countertops and tables
• tend to plants
• CHECK-IN #2- We will look at/add to/rearrange/prioritize your TDL. This is the time to make me aware if you aren't feeling capable of handling items on your TDL. I will make reasonable and fair adjustments as I find necessary after speaking with you about the specifics of the day's variables.
• Look at/update personal calendar, and check with me about mine.
• Shower if desired/necessary/requested of you
  
• Run laundry if it is necessary
• Lunch for us both, drink water
• Take care of first two or few items on TDL

• Computer free time if given permission, amount of time will be specified.
• Check laundry, quick kitchen sweep
• Do a couple more TDL items at a comfortable pace
  
• Restful time, nap if desired. No computer, just rest. Would be a good time for reading in bed or making a friendly non-stressful phonecall or something. Set your alarm for 8pm.
  
• Gently Getting Motivated Again Time- 30 min. Eventually this is when you will be doing a daily yoga routine. Drink some water.
  
• CHECK-IN #4
  
• See about dinner.
• Kitchen once-over, check on laundry, brush your teeth.
  
• Art time, length of time negotiable daily.
• Clean stuff off of bed for the night. Arrange blankets for extra praise.
• Turn off bird and snake lamps at 11pm
  
• Feed the fats, check on water for fats and birds, check millet situation.
• CHECK-IN #5: We will discuss your blogging for the day, I will edit any writing you would like me to, and we will update the TDL in prep for tomorrow.
  
• Make any remaining blog posts for the day. Email, IM w/permission.
• Feed snakes if it's snake feeding night, rat cage if necessary.
• Midnight dinner for us monkeys as needed, drink water some more.
  
• Floor time, horizontal time, bedtime
  

Of course, all of this structure has been built to be flexible, and I will be fair in assessing daily what I think you can handle, and what I think you can at least handle trying. Be honest with yourself and with me about how you feel and your pain and energy levels, and I will be reasonable in return. And of course, appointments and special nights out will require schedule adjustments, which we will work out. If you should ever feel that something about this schedule should be changed, or if you would like something added to the schedule, just ask, and we can talk about it.

Good boy. 8=8
