Muscle ache: It’s a good thing

Yes, Martha Stewart wouldn’t be so happy to know I’m coining her phrase, but I could care less. My body is killing me today and I think it’s from all the work I’ve done with exercise and housecleaning. I hope I can do my exercises later, but if I can’t, then that’s okay too. I will just do them tomorrow. Master did some exercise yesterday with me, and made me feel good about myself. He tells me that I will loose the weight and achieve my goals if I keep working. I’m sure I will get there if my motivation keeps up. I’ve got a few people from my submissive groups that pop in to keep me on my toes and on task. I hope to loose a lb or two this week at the next weigh in.

Master has been keeping track of how I’m doing with the rules list that he has set for me. If you don’t know, there is a point system involved with it. If I earn a certain amount of points, I get rewards. I’m kinda shooting for the shopping trip. That is the most difficult one to wait for, as it is the last reward I can earn. Should take me just over a month if I’m a complete angel. Yeah, right.

So, tomorrow I hope to finish my homework and take a small break from cleaning. However I don’t think that will work either. I’m on a role and cleaning everything is my goal. I want to be proud to have friends over, and not have to worry about people just showing up.

I’ve been reading on a discussion board about people arguing over the use of honorifics (Sir and Ma’am). My opinion on this topic is that if they earn it, they get it. If I feel more comfortable calling them Sir or Ma’am, they get it. If Master says so, I do it. I was not raised in a household that honorifics weren’t stressed. It’s hard for me to remember to use them, and I get “the look” often enough that soon I will have it set in my head. In internet chat rooms, I think it is used too much; greeting strangers with Hello Sir, even if you don’t know them. You have to follow a protocol but sheesh, to me that is just killing it. It has to mean something. Cheapening it just makes it false.
