Muttering Under Your Breath Leads to a Bedtime!

I have to start off by saying, thanks for all the input on the new blog name! I went with "His Cheeky Sub," and I really like it. :) Seemed to be the consensus among you guys as well!

I do have a question though for any blog savvy readers out there. I see that the name changed on my page, but when I see my blog on blog rolls, it still says Red Bottoms & TTWD. Will that stay that way? Is there anything I can do for it to show up as the new name?

Things are still going well with us. Colin had another doctors appointment the other day and his surgery is officially scheduled! He's going to be getting two surgeries at once. Shoulder surgery, and wrist surgery. It's happening in the beginning of July, and I'm so happy his pain will be gone shortly after that! Recovery time will probably be around a month, so it will be hard with him being out of work for that amount of time, but we'll figure out a way to make it work. I asked him how he's going to know when he's able to go back to spanking, and he had his answer all lined up, as it was clearly something he thought about before...

"I'm going to ask him how long until I can go bowling." Pretty smart! Bowling kind of, sort of requires a similar movement in the arm as giving a spanking, so it seems like that's a good way to ask. :)


We're still having our nightly discussions and they have made such a difference in TTWD for us. He's been so consistent with it, and I'm so thankful and happy that it's been working out so well. We were having our talk last night, and a big topic of discussion was my procrastination issues. He said he's going to have to start giving me a wakeup time and I just kind of quietly laughed and muttered under my breath, "Sure. Just like the imaginary bedtime." Of course he heard me, and asked what I meant by that. I told him how he's mentioned multiple times that he's going to implement a bed time, but it's never happened, so I didn't think a wake up time would happen either.

Well, I was wrong. His response? 

"From now on, you'll be in bed by 10. Going to sleep by 11. Set the alarm on your phone to go off every morning at 8 am. And don't think you'll be hitting the snooze button when it goes off either."

When will I learn to just keep my mouth shut? As much as I don't want to admit it, it might be a good idea. I don't always get the best nights sleep, and I can be pretty grumpy because of it. I also procrastinate like crazy, so maybe .. just maybe, the bedtime and wakeup time might help. 

Yeah, Yeah.. Hoh's always know best don't they? *Insert sarcastic eye roll.* ;)


We have a busy weekend ahead of us, how about you guys? Any fun plans?

  1. You definitely asked for that one! Nothing like a good "I bet you won't do it" challenge to make your HoH do it ;) I like your new blog name!

  3. The name on my reading list came up as the new name. I'm glad you went with that one - it was my favorite.

    Good news about the surgery and great idea about the bowling question.

    What can I say about knowing when to keep quiet. I haven't learned that lesson yet either, probably never will.

    Hugs to you.

  4. Wait until he goes after the eyerolling. Mine has just recently started pointing it out, so I'm sure it won't be long before he starts trying to correct it. I do it ALL THE TIME so it would easily be the most difficult habit I've had to work on so far.

  6. LOL Kenzie...you definitely need to watch what you say don't you. Love the new blog name...I don't have a blog roll but your changed name does show up on my reading list.

    You might have Colin ask the doctor when he can begin playing the bongo drums as well as bowling. Yes, bowling does have the same arm movement but there is no impact as there would be playing bongos. Just a suggestion. Hope you enjoy your bed time and wake up time. ;)

    Hugs and Blessings...

    1. Oh, I definitely agree with Cat on this one. He needs to ask his doctor when he can start playing the drums again. That's VERY similar!

    2. Ooooh, I like the drum idea! I might have to ask him to ask his doctor that question. ;) Thank you both! :)

  7. Hi Kenzie, love the new name! Your blog came up on my blog roll under the new name.

    Great news about the surgery and very clever of Colin to ask about bowling.

    Oh dear, muttering under one's breath never a good idea. Guaranteed to get their attention! I hope you do find the bed and wake up times helpful.

    Hugs

  9. Kenzie, love the new name. So glad Colin's surgery is scheduled. Lol love how He plans on asking. Until then, maybe He'll invent a spanking machine.

    Hope you had a great weekend. I took my kids to my best friend's (5 hrs away) to go to major league baseball game. Also, went to pick up lunch and bought a puppy. Expensive lunch!
