Role Reversal ...

... Well, sort of.

In January, 2011 we posted 'Cora the Principal'.  This was in response to a post on the 'Our Bottoms Burn' blog and featured role playing with our Ladies playing the role of the Teacher or Principal.  Of course discipline was involved, specifically with the use of a paddle. 

Well, for the past few weeks, Cora and I have swapped these roles.  Cora has been preparing for an examination that would provide certification for something that we do outside our FLR.  I took on the role of 'teacher' and Cora has been my 'student'. 

Of course, no discipline was necessary and Cora is one of my best students.  And I have taught this subject several times over the past year or so.  In fact Cora did so well that she 'aced' her exam.

So we have been rather distracted for a while and not much has transpired with our FLR.  So in honor of Cora's success (and hopefully taking on her role as 'Principal' soon) here are a few re-posts of pix from our January, 2011 post.  After all, Cora's pix are the best part of our blog.

FLR - It Works

Its been rather quiet around here and we have been occupied with quite a few things outside the FLR realm.  However, last night presented an example of our FLR in action.

Cora and I are both rather passionate about cooking.  We both have our own ideas on how things should be done.  And sometimes these ideas provide conflict between us.  Last night that happened.

I won't go into the details, but our discussion started to get a little 'heated'.  I can get rather stubborn and Cora is also one to hold her ground.  All of a sudden I heard her say, "Over to the table and bend over!".

Oh, oh!  It was then that I realized our 'heated' discussion was going to migrate to my posterior.  Realizing that it was time for me to back down, I complied.  Cora grabbed one her paddles off her rack.

I was thinking that her paddles may be just a little too accessible. 

Soon I felt the heat of her paddle.  She spanked rather swiftly and wasn't holding back much.  I felt lucky that she let me keep my pants on.  Soon she let me up.  I thought it was over.  

NOT!

Cora then decided that the second half would be on the bare.  "Drop 'em", she instructed.  Again, I complied and repositioned myself over the table, presenting my naughty bottom for her to punish. 

And punish, she did.  She had switched to her PurpleHeart paddle.  Now that paddle is rather heavy and packs quite a wallop.  I was soon reminded just how much of a wallop it did pack.  After lighting me on fire, she replaced the paddle on the rack.  However, she did not instruct me to get up and I knew enough to keep in position.  It was my intent to submit to whatever she had decided to deliver.

Cora next reached for her Black Delrin Twisted loop.  This is a rather evil device that the good folks at Cane-iac came up with.  It consists of a quarter inch thick length of round delrin double wrapped into a loop and held by a handle.  It looks 'innocent' enough but if you are ever on the receiving end of one of these things, I can only hope your Lady hold back a bit in sympathy for what it can do to an exposed bottom.

Finally my punishment was over and I apologized.  We finished dinner preparation and I put the Mel Brooks movie, "Spaceballs" on the player to watch.  It was a great mood changer and we both rolled in laughter while watching it.

This morning I asked Cora if she felt better last night after applying a dose of discipline.  She responded that indeed, she did and that once it had been administered all was forgiven.

I love it when things work the way intended!

Two Years -- & Counting

Today marks a milestone for Cora and I - The two year anniversary of our blog. 

Yep, it was two years ago, today that we stuck our toe into the blogger's ocean.  I thought I'd go back and see what I wrote two years ago to kick things off.  Here it is:

     'I am a 62 year old male, newly retired
     and partnered with a wonderful Lady.
     We live in Seattle, WA. Together, we
     have ventured into a 'Female Led
     Relationship'. I am hoping to describe
     our relationship from my own point
     of view and see where this goes
     from there.'

'See where this goes from there'!   It made me laugh at that phrase.  It certainly has gone from there.  Indeed, it has been quite a journey.  But in retrospection, I think the two best things that have come out of our little endeavor has been getting to know some wonderful people in the 'community', and an even stronger relationship with my beloved Cora.  The blog has provided an important conduit for communication between us.

And last night, Cora communicated with me - through an assortment of her paddles.  I so love the way that she no longer hesitates to bend me over the table whenever she things I have crossed some lines of behavior.

So, no pictures of last night's impromptu spanking but I'd thought I post a few pix of my favorite lap in tribute to the reason this blog exists: Cora.

Cora

OK, I think its time to move on from the 'Warning' post.  I am involved in teaching some electronics classes this weekend so what's going on is probably not very topical in the FLR world.

But since the last two posts didn't even include one picture of Cora (a new record), I thought I would just post a nice picture of her.  After all, isn't that why you read our blog?

So here she is with one of our English Springer Spaniels, Vixen (otherwise knows as Champion Ramblewood's Paper Moon).

WARNING TO BLOGGERS

We have all been familiar with the issue with WdSpoone and his very well respected blog, "Ma'am, Yes Ma'am".  Fortunately he was able to overcome the issue and his blog has been relocated and back in operation.

Today I received an e-Mail that disturbed me.  Here is what it said:

Dear , hereby we notify you that your IP address has been identified as distributing copyrighted content. Please see the attachment to this message for illicit Internet traffic details.
Failure to respond to this message within 14 days will result in copyright infringement accusation and standard legal procedures.
The message showed as coming from the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) and gave their phone number.

Since I have been involved with music and have performed in several bands over the years, I am very familiar with the RIAA.  So, I check their own website to see if the phone number was legitimate.  To my shock, it was.

Now, most of you know that the only thing you will find on our blog are pictures taken by us or pictures that we have posted with permission.  The only exceptions have been some items that are 'public domain'.  So I took this notification quite seriously.

So, I called the RIAA number.  Their recorded greeting indicated that they have been to target of an Internet Spoof (their words) and the message should be disregarded.  I left a message anyway.

The attachment that was included was an 'EXE' file and I am guessing that if opened it would attack your computer. 

Maybe I am over reacting but I felt especially troubled by this threat.  Fellow Bloggers, beware!

Bare Bottomed Barista

... and perhaps that should be Bare, Red Bottomed Barista.

Dana Kane is a very well disciplinarian and her website is probably on the saved area of most of those who read this blog.  Her blog is referenced on our blog as one of the blogs we follow.  In addition, she has been producing a very good set of F/M spanking videos.

Cora and I have had the honor to occasionally correspond with Ms. Kane.  Among other things she has been most gracious in sharing information on how she has produced her videos and how to get them posted on the net.  We probably wouldn't have been able to figure out how to get ours posted without her help.  Besides being absolutely gorgeous, she is truly a generous and awesome woman.

Ms. Kane occasionally travels to various locations in the USA.  Her blog includes travel information.  So it was no surprise when we found that one of her destinations would be Seattle.  We agreed to meet at some location, perhaps for coffee.

Coffee????

Hey, we live is Seattle.  You know, the headquarters of several world-wide coffee companies.  Seattle has a rich tradition of coffee lovers, partly due to the Scandinavian population in our area.  My own grandparents came from Norway in the early 1900's, met here and married.  I can still remember the importance of coffee in their household.

So, it should be no surprise that we celebrate the coffee traditions, too.  But my own preference is for espresso.  I purchased my first espresso machine in 1977, considerably prior to the coffee craze.  Over the years, I have upgraded and currently own a really nice machine that shares many components with the 'professional' espresso machines.  We grind our own beans on an as needed basis and even purchase our beans direct from a roaster so that we have the freshest beans possible.

Over the years, I have developed my coffee making techniques and have been told that I make a pretty good coffee drink.  I have even had offers of sexual favors for my coffee.  Really!

So, I had a little fun with Ms. Kane.  In letting us know that she had to postpone her trip to Seattle, she asked, "I hope you'll still be in the mood for coffee".  I decided to tease her a little and responded that we are always in the mood for coffee.  Her response was, "Teasing me with the promise of the best coffee in Seattle is just cruel...ha!"

So, I couldn't resist raising the stakes to the next level.  This morning, I decided that I would make one of my 'famous' Mocha's for Cora.  Cora usually has a different concoction but my Mocha's are especially 'pretty'.

So I began making the Mocha.  I decided to 'show off' a little and wore my 'butler apron' while performing my barista duties.  I know most of you would rather see pictures of Cora, but a while back some of you did request to see my 'Butler's Apron'.  I guess that comes under the heading, "be careful what you ask for".

Yep, that's my red bottom still showing the affects of the spanking the previous day from Cora.

So here is the result of this morning's coffee making magick.  Its a Mocha fit for a Goddess, like Cora and Dana.

Dana, This One's For You!

Valentine's Day - A Follow Up

I got spanked this morning!

Yesterday's post received several wonderful comments.  One came from Dave, who wondered if Cora would give me a Valentine's Day spanking.  Well, she didn't, but it got me thinking (now, that can be dangerous!).

Over a week ago, Cora issued one of her 'Notices of Discipline' to me.  I had set myself up to get 'caught' on the computer and Cora issued her Notice indicating that I was to be spanked later in the day.  (Don't worry, Cora and I don't keep anything from each other and 'getting caught' is more of a 'game' we play with each other than me doing something against Cora's wishes).

As sometimes happens, the appointed time for my discipline came and went.  Then another day, and another. Isn't it amazing how daily life events get in the way of the more important things?  So, with a little inspiration from Dave I came up with a plan.  I would use the alternative to the Notice of Discipline, the 'Request for Discipline' form.

My plan included the usual making of Cora's morning coffee.  Afterwards, I would hand her the new Request form paper clipped to the original Notice of Discipline.  At the same time I brought in the 5 minute hourglass, her hairbrush and her new Purpleheart 'Bottom Burner' (from Cane-iac).  I had filled out the Request form indicating five minutes of spanking with hand and hairbrush followed by several swats from the Bottom Burner, the number to be determined by Cora.

Cora's New 'Bottom Burner' from Cane-Iac

Sometimes Cora needs a little push and inspiration.  Her first reaction was, "You want me to spank you now?"  I could sense her reluctance, but I was prepared.

I had placed a copy of one of our Disciplinary Wive's Club DVD's in our player.  Cora was sitting on our living room couch and was facing our video display.  This is the same set-up we used in our recent video.  I then set the hourglass, hairbrush and Bottom Burner on a small table in front of Cora.

I had used the DWC video in July of last year and really got my bottom burned as a result.  Watching the video then had really inspired Cora while I was over her lap.  I was feeling the need for another good, hard spanking so put the same video on the player.  It features Ms. Dana Specht lecturing about scolding followed by a demonstration of how she uses her scolding technique while spanking her naughty guy.

So I pressed 'Play' and fast forwarded to the part where Ms. Dana begins her spanking 'demonstration'.  I then placed myself over Cora's lap.  It was still early in the morning, so I was still wearing a robe.  Just a robe.  Cora lifted the robe baring my bottom.  She then proceeded to give me a warm-up spanking with her hand.  She hadn't yet started the timer.

Soon Cora started to get 'into her groove'.  She reached to the table, turned the hour glass over and grabbed her hairbrush.  The first volley from her hairbrush really stung and I concentrated on breathing.  She continued to spank me raising the intensity probably wanting to keep pace with Ms. Specht.  I concentrated on making sure I took deep breaths.

My original plan was for Cora to combine a hand spanking with a hairbrush spanking for the duration of the hourglass.  Well, Cora had other ideas (and after all, who is in charge?).

Cora Using a Non-Verbal Command in Preparation to Using Her New Bottom Burner

After a few concentrated groups of strokes from her hairbrush, I could feel her lean back to the table.  "Oh, oh", I thought, "she is going for the Bottom Burner, already".  Then I felt the first one from it - "Wham".  That little paddle is well named!  "Wham", another then another.  I lost track of what was happening but Cora was changing back and forth between the Bottom Burner and her hairbrush.  In between she would give me a few swats with her hand.

By this time I was 'floating' into that area where the spanking was starting to not hurt.  Well, not hurt as much.  Cora continued to spank me, keeping cadence with Ms. Specht on the video.  And she was switching between the Bottom Burner, hairbrush and her hand.  She even used both the hairbrush and Bottom Burner at the same time.  Ouch!

Cora then laughed out loud and said, "Oh no, the sand has run out on the hourglass".  I had to laugh, too.  We had sort of lost track.  Cora handled this situation by turning the hourglass over again and resumed my spanking.  So, for another five minutes Cora proceeded to deliver a really hard and intense spanking.  Finally the sand ran out (again) at about the same time Ms. Specht was finishing up with her demonstration on the video.  Cora and I dwelled while savoring the afterglow, and finally Cora put her 'tools' back on the table and had me get up. 

We have really enjoyed making videos of our little sessions and plan to make more in the future.  However, there is nothing like a 'formal' spanking without the distraction of having to keep track of white balance, exposure, lighting, camera position and so on.  In this case I just concentrated on Cora and my spanking experience.

So thanks to JoeyRed, 'M' and Hermione for your comments yesterday.  But a special thanks to Dave for your inspiration.  Its been several hours since Cora completed her blistering of my bottom and I am still feeling quite a bit of 'fire' down there.  But there is that wonderful afterglow that results from getting the spanking you need from someone you love.  And who loves you enough to satisfy your needs.
