We have several implements if you will, however J’s favorite is this school paddle that he has. Now to begin with its always been horrible. I would whimper just seeing him reach for it. We also have a couple smaller paddles one for otk , J’s belt (which I used to be terrified of see post here but I’m way over that), a couple of wodden spoons and whatever else he finds to spank with. I cannot say enough , that out of all of our implements his school paddle is the worst!!!!. It’s just pure evil.
Now the thing is, for reasons I’m not going to go into , we have never bought a single one of these implements . For a long time it’s bothered me that we didn’t have a “special” implement that was a representation of our CDD lifestyle. J thinks I’m silly that it all works just the same (and boy do I know they work just fine ) but that was not the point. In his attempt to be funny he took a marker and wrote my name on the corner of the paddle but it just irritated me and made it worse.
Several times I’ve shopped online and almost bought him something as a gift but I was honestly not sure what he would say having never asked him what he thought about purchasing something. I ended up chickening out . So our 7 yr. anniversary is coming up and this year has been the best year of our marriage yet. In all aspects we just seem happier. The kids are growing and I’m content with the way our parenting styles have developed. Ironic we made less money this year than we ever have but we have less debt at the end of the year than we ever have had and we have high goals for this year. Thanks to CDD I have learned how to love , respect, and appreciate my husband more than ever before and he in turn is head over heels for me and we glow when we’re together. I could not be happier. I really want to celebrate our anniversary as a way to celebrate all of that. Buying him an implement had really been on my mind as more symbolic of my submission, love & dedication to him and our marriage.
AND then……….LOL
all of this has been going through my head and then he notices one day that he has cracked his favorite implement , the school paddle. ( i honestly did not even think that was possible) . So for a few brief seconds I was thinking “aha, here’s my chance!” . I thought he would be down about it and I could suggest us picking something out together but that’s not exactly what happened. He took the paddle out of the room and when he returned he was proud of himself . You know the look, hands on hips holding the paddle as if it was holstered to his side, chest puffed out and his head thrown back in victory. He announced “there, I’ve fixed it!”. He unsheathed the paddle to begin lovingly running his hands over it as to inspect his handiwork. And to my horror , the man had taken black duct tape and completely wrapped the business end of the paddle with it. Where do they come up with this stuff? I was horrified because I have a friend whose husband had done this to their smaller paddle and she said it was worse than it had been in the beginning. Part of me did not really believe , because J’s school paddle is truly sinister. How could it get much worse?
well I’m a believer now… LOL…. it is waaay worse…He had wanted to try it out on me that very day but I talked him out of it as I hadn’t done anything to deserve such a wicked implement. It didn’t take him long to find something that I needed a “reminder” about but no lying , I got 4-5 swats and I had huge puffy blotches on my rear for 2 days. J said it’s because I haven’t been in much trouble and I’m not accustomed to getting regular spankings .. (yeah right….remember it’s me he’s talking about) . Anyway I digress, well since he has done this , my hopes of getting a new implement were a bit deflated because I could tell he was completely in love with his paddle. I did go ahead and ask and he did say “no, why do we need to? we have the paddle.” And I will begrudgingly admit that having the duct tape cover his markings on it and being as it was his handiwork, I do feel like it is more “ours” and that it hasn’t had nor will have any other use than just be between us. Now this has primarily made me feel like it is for me.
Here is where it became his…. and I had to leave this part til the end because I would have laughed through the rest of the post and no one could have taken me seriously. In that moment of pride he made such a comical picture , I had a hard time not laughing . I did not succeed however because as he was caressing his paddle , he says to me ….” You want to try out The Black Widow?”
Yes that is right , he has named his paddle. The Black widow!!!!! at that…..LOL. The good thing is that it has brought some humor to the whole “situation” and while I’m definitely not laughing when correction is being applied to my back side , every time I hear the name I start giggling. I can’t help it. It’s just too funny to me. Part of it I find endearing because if there were any doubts before rather he embraced CDD or not, There definitely is no question where he stands now. It’s finally His… and it’s here forever.





So yeah I love him and I’m in it for the long haul cause that’s what marriage is all about!!!!
