"Maintenance" Monday
The Discipline Diaries #61
Sir has decided that it’s time to ring the changes!
After almost 14-years of maintenance taking place on a Sunday, (Spanking Sunday), it has - from today - been switched to a Monday.
“Maintenance” Monday!
So, my regular session designed to remind me to behave myself (and to make amends for any infractions during the previous week), is officially taking place on Monday mornings - as if anyone needed more of a reason to loathe Mondays(!)
This is broadly to accommodate my unreasonable working hours.
Sunday is now my only day of rest during the typical week and so my Head of House (HoH) has kindly moved regular discipline to Mondays, so that I may get some proper rest on what is my only full day off each week.
In fairness, I frequently end up working for 4-6 hours or so even on Sundays these days!
Also, the household strap (pictured in the centre, above), has been drafted in to replace sir’s riding crop in order to shake things up further.
That strap is nasty.
Thick, heavy, coarse leather which covers my rump almost entirely from hip to hip!
I hate it.
Though I am forced to admit it is one hell of an addition to “motivation”.
What constitutes maintenance?
Some new readers might not have had chance to explore the back catalogue of real-life spanking stories, articles and/or general blog pieces such as this one yet.
So, here goes…
Maintenance is a weekly thrashing delivered to punishment standard as a means of preventing poor behaviour.
Over the years, we’ve had periods with and without maintenance and have come to the conclusion that life is MUCH better for both of us when I am subject to maintenance spankings.
The details
The typical maintenance session consists of an Over The Knee (OTK) hand spanking of a length of sir’s determination.
This is both preceded and followed by some Corner Time.
After which, I am required to take up position over the back of a sturdy chair to receive the following.
A minimum of 6 with the slipper (gym shoe/plimsole).
A minimum of 6 with the leather paddle (The London Tanners’ boudoir paddle)
A minimum of 6 with the house strap (thick, heavy course leather).
The rest is down to behaviour, attitude and performance from the previous week.
So, if I have done something which I am forbidden from doing, I might receive 6 of the best with the junior cane immediately post maintenance.
Or, if I have been sloppy with my household duties, then the 6 with the strap might become 12 or 18 in order to encourage me to do better next week!
Finally, if I am on The Discipline Diet, which I am currently, then I am also given further cane strokes if I have earned them.
Generally speaking, I do well to come away with ‘only’ Corner Time, OTK and the straight triple 6.
There is invariably more to add!
This week
I very nearly made away with ‘maintenance only’ but not quite!
This week, I received an additional 4 with the wooden paddle for disobedience - a big “no no” in this house.
Still, it could have been worse and for that, I am grateful.
Spanking statistics
Tomorrow, I shall publish annual spanking stats for ALL of 2023 and shortly thereafter stats for January 2024 will be due out.
I think it’s fair to say that I haven’t made the best start to 2024 and that is certainly reflected in the numbers!
Let’s just say my backside has had several close encounters with that boudoir paddle (pictured ‘top’, above)!
January isn’t quite yet over either… hey-ho!
More soonest!!!!
