a good day – I like it!

a good day – I like it!

Some catch up. I had a great class at the dojo today. My arms were pretty
tired (still are) from the workout yesterday but that was OK. When the class
started I felt fine. My timing on the floor was really good tonight – I felt
confident in my abilities and how my training is coming.

In further news, it looks like there will be three of us taking the test for
black belt, not two. That will give me more time to rest. Yes!

In closing, I will present a nice piece I found on the net after it was
mentioned on a mailing list I am on. It is supposedly a 1950’s text for girls –
I don’t have any idea if that is true. The principles are good ones. I don’t see
that it is really specific to females – but it sure applies to trainees in BDSM
🙂

1950’s – the good life! Rules for wives…

Have diner ready for him. Plan
ahead, even the night before to have a delicious meal on time for his
return. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking of
him and are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they
come home and the prospect of a good meal (especially his favorite dish)
is a part of the warm welcome needed.

Prepared yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so that you’ll be
refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make-up, put a ribbon in your
hair and be fresh looking. He has just been with allot of work weary
people. Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him. His
boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it.

Clear up the clutter. Make one last trip around the main parts
of the house just before your husband arrives, gather up school books,
toys, papers etc. Then run a dust clothe over tables. In the cooler
months of the year you should prepare and light a fire for him to unwind
by. Your husband will feel that he has reached a haven of rest and
order, and it will give you a lift too. After all, catering for his
comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction.

Prepare the children. Take a few minutes to wash children’s
hands and faces (if they are small) comb their hair, and if necessary
change their cloths. They are little treasures and he would like to see
them playing the part.

Minimize the noise. At the time of his arrival eliminate all
noises of washers, dryer or vacuum. Try to encourage the children to be
quiet.

Be happy to see him. Greet him with a warm smile and show
sincerity in your desire to please him

Listen to him. Your may have dozens of important things to
tell him, but at the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk
first – remember, his topics of conversation are more important than
yours.

Make the evening his. Never complain if he comes home late or
goes out to dinner, or places of entertainment without you. Instead try
to understand his world of strain and pressure and his real needs to be
home and relaxed.

Your goal. Try to make sure his home is a place of peace,
order and tranquility where your husband can renew himself in body and
spirit

Some Don’ts:

Don’t greet him with problems or complaints. Don’t

complain
if he’s late home for dinner, or even if he stays out all night.
Count this as a minor compared with what he might have gone through
that day.

Don’t ask him about his actions or question his judgment or
integrity.

Remember, he is the master in the
house and as such will always exercise his
will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.

A good wife always knows her place

Night!
