Wartenberg Wheel

This review is for the Wartenberg Wheel.

This particular Wartenberg Wheel has a nice look to it, in that it's bark is much worse than it's bite. It looks nice but it just doesn't deliver that intense needle prick you'd expect coming from a somewhat evil looking sex toy. Master had to dig this wheel pretty deep into me in order for me to feel it. There are some advantages to this however. It's great for those starting out and it's awesome for people who aren't really into a lot of pain but still want to test their boundaries.

When i think of a Wartenberg Wheel i might think of a standard issue neurologist wheel with the needle-sharp edges that i've also seen used as a bondage toy in the past. i was a bit surprised at the dull edges on the wheel until i really read the box. "Tickle, Tease and Please!" Well if i were to really think about a Wartenberg Wheel, i wouldn't expect to be tickled, exactly, i would anticipate pain.

Even when Master pushed the wheel on my pink bits, i didn't feel as much as you might expect.

This would be terrific fun for a couple looking to add some extra spice in the bedroom! It's not exactly a masochists dream however. It's got lots of potential and i was happy to have a chance to try it out!

Thank you to EdenFantasys for another fun review opportunity!

You said in a recent post that 10 years ago you would have laughed at someone who told you that today you would be doing your housework in hi-heels stockings and a girdle. However you seem to have become accustomed to it. Do your dress that way only becau

First off let me apologize, part of your question was cut off, so i'll do my best to guess at the last portion of your question.

i dress the way i do because i came here to be the best slave i know how to be, to Master. i want to be molded into His perfect slave and yes, part of that is dressing the way He wants me to dress. i knew portions of what He wanted from me, when i came here but i didn't know the big picture. i only knew that He wanted me in heels and skirts/dresses. The rest came in due time.

You're right, i have grown entirely accustomed to it and i'm not at all shocked by that. my Grandma lived nearly her entire life in a girdle, stockings and heels. So even though i didn't take after her until later in life, i grew up around it and it's not something i'm unfamiliar with. Today, i look so much like her, it's astonishing.

i can't imagine wearing pants anymore. Skirts are so much more comfortable than the pants i used to wear. i used to have a terrible time in the summer months buying shorts that fit properly and wearing stockings couldn't be more convenient for just about everything.

The whole "pant system" works against you. i have skirts for summer and winter that keep me warmer and cooler than i've ever been in pants. In the winter when your legs are able to be together you can trap the heat in, with a wool, lined skirt. With pants your legs are separated with only material to keep you warm.

In the summer you wear a loose flowing skirt or a shorter skirt allowing a cool breeze.

Thank you for the question!! =)

So You Wanna Wear Heels? Part 3

This post is for anyone really dedicated to wearing heels on a daily or almost daily basis. At this point you've graduated from a 3 1/2 or a 4 inch heel and you're comfortable in that heel for an extended period of time and you're ready to move on.

Going higher means being careful and it also means learning to choose carefully, trying on shoes and walking in them a lot before buying. Internet purchases are risky but often times the cutest most affordable shoes are on line.

Internet purchases; Obviously there are millions of amazing shoes on line to choose from. Of course the worst part being the inability to test out the shoe. If you're able it's a possibility for you, the best scenario is to order the two closest sizes and return the size that doesn't fit. Sometimes there are reviews posted from buyers about the items stating how the shoe fit. Those are invaluable to us as buyers. Alleviating the need to order multiple pair and getting the closest possible fit.

So you've gotten the most awesome shoe and it fit in the store and you have it home now and it's too big or too small, now what? Okay, here are some links to help you get off and running.

Shoe Stretcher This is very reasonably priced and you really only need to buy one unless you're really in a hurry to wear your shoes. There is also a spray that will help stretch the shoe as well. However, i can't speak to the effectiveness of the spray, i've never used it.

So the shoe is way too large, there are heel grippers, these are really standard and they will also help the shoe from slipping off the back of your heel.

Heel gripper. There have been a couple times that i have used more than one to snug up the back of a shoe and they work wonders. The best part about them is that they'll pull the back of a shoe off your heel to prevent blisters.

Of course the higher you go, the more pressure you're putting on the ball of your foot and the gel cushions are amazing. The only bad thing i've found with ball only gel cushion is getting it to stay in place. They tend to want to curl up under your toes so some double sided tape might help to keep it in place or just a full shoe pad might be a better choice if needed.

Gel pad. & Full foot cushion.

The links i'm offering are only examples of what's out there, i'm sure you can find tons more. i should also mention that i was looking for the most affordable items i could find there may very well be better quality items on the market as well.

Continuing the training with a higher heel is just more of the same in a more consistent manner. What really changes is your mindset. Where you once thought that a "flat shoe" was a sneaker or a flip flop. A flat shoe is really now a 2 1/2 inch sandal and that becomes your all day walking shoe. Your regular daily wear is now your 3 1/2 or 4 inch heel or 5 inch heel depending on your level of comfort. It's really all in how you look at things and what you're physically able to handle. Now i typically do my housework in pair of 2 1/2 inch or 3 inch sandals. It may take me a bit longer because i am more careful, i use the handrails when walking down the stairs and i notice i certainly take smaller steps. But all those things just make me look like more of a lady. Things that Master loves and wants to see in me.

Had someone told me 10 or more years ago i would be doing housework in a skirt, heels, stockings and an all in one girdle i would have rolled on the floor laughing. i just wasn't the type of person that was physically able to wear heels or really dress that way. my toes were really bad and they always hurt but my level of commitment is such that i've made some pretty drastic physical changes and Master has been extremely patient and committed as well.

To this day i work on stretching my legs, stretching my arches and i will never be able to stop working on strengthening my legs or i will lose everything that i have worked toward. When there is a period of time that i have to wear true flat shoes, helping Master build something or working outside for a long time, i feel the ache in my legs. It's the total opposite of what i felt when i began to wear heels though. It's the opposite cramps, my legs crap up because they aren't used to being in flats for so long and the pain can be excruciating.

i still have a long way to go, i don't have ballet shoes and i think Master would love it if i were ever able to walk in them like i were walking across a bare floor. i don't have the endurance that Master would like me to have, but i keep working on it. But again, i look at things differently, i know i can walk across a rocky surface in heels as long as i'm careful or i have Master's arm. i know that i can water flowers in heels or i can sit at a bonfire in heels and stockings.

Thanks for reading this has been fun! =)

Peace to you and yours! Happy Heels! haha

On The Mend

Master and i went back up to the hospital last night to see His Mom. She was sitting up in bed with the large oxygen mask off using only regular oxygen. She had eaten a little bit of her supper and her color was better. She was able to talk to us and stayed awake for the majority of the time we were there. To say she's improving is an understatement. The three dialysis treatments she's had have worked wonders and she'll be going on dialysis on a regular basis once she's released from the hospital. No one is sure when that will be yet, but at least she's really going in the right direction! At this point she hasn't been able to walk or really even stand so she's got quite a bit of work to do but we're really pleased with her progress and just happy that she was able to talk and see that all of the important stuff is improving! =)

After Master and i left the hospital at about 9:20pm we had to go to His parents house and help get ready for them to have this huge cement project done. Every single thing around the side of their house and by their garage needed to be moved before the cement can be poured. Let me just tell you, it was a lot of crap. Big sheds full of Christmas lawn ornaments, piles of lumber... ugh. We finally got home at like 2am. Now Master can call and have the cement guy come and while His Mom is in the hospital their whole driveway will be redone and they'll be getting a brand new side walk that they've never had. It'll be awesome for them, their driveway sucks right now. So now Master has to take care of the cement job and make sure that it's poured the way they need it, cause it's a lot more than a driveway, there are a lot of particulars and His dad is up at the hospital.

If anyone is still looking for my 3rd heels post, not to worry, it's still on the way! i haven't forgotten about it! =)

Take care!

Peace to you and yours,

Lavender Roses

The past few days have been pretty rough. Master's Mom is in the hospital. She's in the Medical ICU and she's finally getting the dialysis she's desperately needed for quite some time. Today they took 2 and 1/2 pounds of fluid off her and she's still terribly swollen.

This morning her kidneys were at 9% functioning, they had gone down 2% overnight. It's all been quite scary. But as of this evening we're hopeful that we'll see some improvement tomorrow. It's impossible to talk to her because of breathing machine but at least she's getting the care that she needs and that's all we care about right now.

Master and i will be heading back up to the hospital tomorrow. We were at the local hospital early this am to be sure they sent her to the larger hospital where they would be able to better care for her. Then we went back up tonight. We weren't going to go tonight and just wait until tomorrow but we both knew we needed to go so we hitched a ride with Master's sister and her husband.

i'm glad we went even though she didn't really even know we were there, at least we know we went. We'll keep going until she's able to see us and know we've been there every day or as much as we could be.

Peace to you and yours,

It's taken me longer to think of a title for this post than it has to write the whole post. i can't think of anything that's appropriate or respectful enough. Okay this won't make any sense until you get to this part but her favorite color is purple, violet, lavender and her favorite flower is a rose. Now you'll get the title. =)

So You Wanna Wear Heels? Part 2

This post is about endurance, safety and tid bits that make wearing heels easier!

By now your balance should be better and you might want to think about increasing the height of the shoe you're wearing. This is where endurance comes in, it's also where patience is a virtue. Basically if you think about the process, you're stretching your calf muscle beyond the point of where it is normally stretched. To listen to some people they think it's unhealthy. To listen to others they think done in the proper manner, it's perfectly fine.

By unhealthy i mean, going out and buying a pair of ballet shoes and wearing them for 3 hours right off the bat. This pretty much physically impossible unless you're "Rubber Girl" and if you're not you'll just tear your shins and calf muscles to shreds.

i am going to give you my version of a healthy way to gain endurance, strengthen your ankles and help with balance, without hurting yourself. There really should never be real pain, discomfort, yes. But you should never feel actual pain if you're having pain, you're going too fast.

Let's assume you've been wearing wedges for a while, should feel pretty comfortable walking in them. Depending on how long you've worn them it should have helped in strengthening your calf muscles as well as your ankles and thighs. So lets look at choosing a shoe with a straight heel, no wedge, no platform. In other words a pump. i would really recommend not going with a sandal right off for one main reason. A pump will offer more material for balance around your foot where in a sandal the straps offer little to no support. At this point i might look for a 3 inch or 3 1/2 inch pump but really no higher. Going from a wedge to a straight heel is an entirely different feel if you're unfamiliar with the balance and if you want to look sexy in your walk. Oh sure, anyone can fling on a pair 5 inch heels and do the slutty slither but we want to look amazingly sexy. If you find yourself wobbling at all from one side to the next your heels are too high!

Working on ankle strength and endurance;

Ankle weights can always be used but it's not something i ever did. i know i would have benefited from it though and it's still something i should consider. It's never too late to work on strengthening your ankles if you're serious about wearing heels. For endurance, Master made many rules for me that helped but one helped more than anything. Every time i was sitting at my computer (because that's where i used to spend most of my down time) i had to wear no less than a 4 inch heel. This rule helped stretch my calves, stretch my arches and more often than not when getting up from my chair for any little errand, i wouldn't change out of my 4 inch heel, i would just wear that same shoe. It helped me get more and more used to wearing those heels regularly. Slowly, i gained more confidence and more strength but it's an on going process and it's something that never ends.

If i were to get on my hands and knees and look under my desk right now, i bet i would still find random heels that i still wear when i'm sitting at my desk. You can never stop training and stretching your feet. But you should call b.s. on me! i don't do it every single time i am at my desk! i fail a lot i forget, i kick off my shoes before i get up and walk out of the room to do an errand barefoot, yep, i do it too. i'm not supposed to and it makes Master VERY unhappy and i HATE that i do it, but i do it. But, i try and i'll never stop trying because i love heels and i love the way they look and i LOVE the way Master looks at me when i'm wearing shoes He loves!!!!

Okay you're walking in pumps and you feel fairly confident, depending on the pile of the carpet (yes i said carpet), i would really prefer to try out a new pair of shoes on carpet, especially a pump. You'll get just a tiny bit of grab and the carpet will also offer a little more support than a wood or tile floor will. It's a perfect place to work on your balance. One foot firmly planted as you practice balancing on one foot and not wiggling from side to side. It's much harder than it sounds. Another great way to strengthen your ankles.

i'll assume you're wearing hosiery in your shoes for comfort, take care that any time you're wearing a new pair of shoes, the hosiery will make the shoe a bit more slick than if you're barefoot. i mentioned that panties will help you keep your pantyhose from drooping. Another alternative of course is a panty girdle or foundation garment over your pantyhose!










More to come in the third and final "heels" post. Thank you for reading!

So You Wanna Wear Heels? part 1

In the past few weeks i've seen many different comments about people who would like to be better at wearing heels or people who say "I wish I could wear heels, but they just KILL my feet!". Well this is for you! i welcome comments, questions and i am also happy to be schooled as well! i am still growing in my abilities and in doing so i am constantly learning new techniques for comfort as well as making your shoes look and fit great.

This post is for those just starting out.

If you're just starting out and you've worn flats your entire life, your calf muscles and shins aren't going to be used to the strain that a high heel will put on your muscles. You'll also notice a bit of a pull on your arch. All this feels pretty good the first time you put on your first actual high heel. When i was really learning to walk in heels, for balance and every day wear i started out with a low platform wedge. That way you can actually wear a heel that looks quite a bit higher than it really is. You'll have the balance of the entire soul under your foot and the elevation of a heel. For me though, i have to take care not to wear too "chunky" of a heel as i believe the higher the platform is the more it takes away from the sexy heel look. If you plan right when you're just starting out, the incline in your arch will be slight and this will be a great shoe to train in.

Wedges of course come in all types of shoes these days as well, closed toed as well as sandals so you don't have to limit yourself to heels in the summer time. i'm sure you've also seen boots with a cute wedge.

If you're serious about learning to wear heels it's something you should do slowly but very consistently. Wearing heels for a day and then going back to flats for two weeks does nothing for forming your arches and muscles. It also does nothing for your balance. The moment you go back to those shoes you won't remember what you've learned.

This isn't to say you need to go out and buy 5 pairs of new shoes, one will do for the beginning, but get something that you know will fit and something you're comfortable wearing. That's where this post might come in handy. You don't have to spend $75 on a pair of shoes, but you do have to be picky. Don't pay attention to the size "you always wear". Pay attention to the size that fits! Try BOTH shoes on and walk in them!! A LOT!

Now, this is me, i posted about this before but this is a fact. Pantyhose or just hosiery of any kind will make shoes last longer. Why? Because the perspiration from your foot will ruin the inside of the shoe. The hose will also make the shoe slide on and off better and make the shoe more comfortable giving the illusion that you might need a smaller shoe, and you might!

So you hate pantyhose because they droop? Haannnngggg on! Call me crazy but i did this for years!! i wore panties, then pantyhose, then ..... panties OVER my pantyhose! Never once did my pantyhose droop! Just a little tip for ya!

Take care when buying that first pair of heels that you come home with a pair that you love. If you don't, if you're not excited about wearing them, you'll certainly be discouraged. Get something high enough that you'll be noticed, but not so high you'll fall on your tail in front of that cute guy or your Master. After an evening in your new shoes you should feel it, if you haven't felt the difference from the new heel then your shoes probably weren't high enough. i'm thinking at least 2.5 inches or so, not including a platform.

i'll say it again, scuff up the bottom of that new shoe like you're taking the finish off it! Waxed floors are not our friends! =)

Stay tuned for part two, coming soon!

Not Even Reading The Same Book

The last couple days Master and i just haven't been in sync with each other. It happens every once in a while and it's usually a combination of things. If my mind were clearer i mind be able to pin point exactly what it is but to be perfectly honest my memory recall just stinks. Imagine living with someone who can't remember what they've said 20 seconds before they've said it and then says they didn't say it. Right, that's me. That's not always the case, but it happens.

Master allowed me to stay home today and rest. When He got into the car to leave He said in a really bitter voice "The last couple days, not only have we not been on the same page, we haven't even been reading the same book. That displeases Me." i just stood in the garage, near tears and said "i'm sorry Master" as He drove away. Don't you just hate it when things are off kilter and you can't put your finger on why or what happened? It's nothing major, it just stinks.

He called me about an hour after He left and told me find the keys to His "toys" first and then put the big belled ankle cuff on my left ankle and attach myself to the bed via the long chain. i would be able to navigate around the bedroom and into the bathroom but that would be the extent of my wanderings for the day. He said that with me being on a chain and having to ask for permission for everything, we might be able to get back on the same page. (my words not His, i don't remember what He said exactly)

i don't know when He'll be home tonight i know He's planning on working a long day today to try to get a lot done now that the weather is cooler, i just hope that when He gets home my head is clearer and i stop doing dumb things.

The only reason for releasing myself off the chain would be to take the dog outside, for anything else, i would have to call Him. So far i've called Him once to ask to make soup and a cup of tea. i shouldn't need to call Him again unless something comes up. For me, there is almost nothing worse than knowing He's unhappy with me, let alone having Him leave here being unhappy with me, it really hurts.

At least He called and allowed me the chance to redeem myself a bit on the chain today. The fewer times i call Him, i think the better i do, maybe. Either way, things will get back to normal but i am glad He gave me this chance to make things right and please Him. =)

Thank you for letting me ramble, peace to you and yours!

i love You Master!

Shop Till Ya Drop

Master and i just walked in the door from spending the entire day shopping with His Mom. We had a really fun, long day. We haven't had a day like that in a while, especially with His Mom. She hasn't really been able to walk at all, so we didn't even try and we just used wheel chairs and scooters everywhere we went. It went much better for her and she was able to have a much easier time of it. i think she had a pretty good day, she sure acted like she was having a good time and not once did she say she was tired or want to go home.

Master grew up loving to shop because of His Mom and until very recently she's been able to shop circles around even me. Today because she was in a wheel chair i'm sure i was ready to quit before either of them! haha!! It was a fun day though and we got a lot accomplished. =)

Now we're home and i'm ready to pass out, i'm really wiped out, but it's a good tired. i've been in more pain lately than usual but i'm sure it will ease up sooner or later. It's just that while the pain is this bad, everything makes me more tired, much more quickly. But that's nothing new and i'll just wait for this wave to pass and hope for a couple of good days.

Last week Master instituted a new rule for me, i now have to ask prior to using the bathroom. So far it's going alright and i haven't forgotten ... yet. i'm sure there will come a time where i will forget and i'm so not looking forward to that punishment. The worst part is feeling that i'm bothering Him every time i have to go or trying to hold it when i know i shouldn't have to go again. i don't wait longer than i know i should because i know how bad that is, i just don't want to pester Him. It's a really fine line.

Anyway, i'm off here for the night, i hope everyone had a really nice weekend.

Peace to you!

Practice Makes Perfect!

Master and i were in line at the store this afternoon where we saw this teenaged girl carrying some very high heeled shoes. Her feet were bright red and i'm sure she must have had blisters.

The checker apparently knew the gal holding her shoes and Master and i knew the checker as well. Once we got to the register the checker nodded at me and made a remark about the girls shoes and i just shook my head. i said to her, "she's doing everything wrong and it was all i could do, not say something!!" Both she and Master said "you should have!!"

At that the checker then wanted to know what the young girl was doing wrong and what could she have done better to make her feet hurt less. i told her first and foremost, hosiery! Shoes will last 10 times longer and fit 100 times more comfortably if you're wearing leg coverings. Although leg coverings are a thing of the past, especially in the summer time. So if it's not an open toed shoe, a tiny bootie is the next best thing, you can hide them if it's a pump if you're absolutely opposed to hosiery in the summertime. (i don't know why you would be, but that's just me) =) i wear hosiery all year round but i am not "normal", lol.

If it's a sandal then it's got to be complete hosiery or your feet AND the shoes are toast. The next thing the gal should have done was scuff up the bottom of that shoe! It was brand new and slick, i could see from the way she was holding them, the bottoms were still shiny. Take a piece of sandpaper, a key whatever you've got and scuff up that shoe before you try to wear it on a slick floor or you'll feel so unsteady you'll *look* unsteady.

There are about a 100 different options these days to make heels comfortable, gel inserts for the ball of your foot, gel pads for the whole foot, heel pads to make the shoes smaller, shoe stretchers to make the shoes larger. You name it, you can do it. One thing you can't do is unbreak a broken ankle or make someone steady in a pair of 6 inch shoes if they've never walked in a pair of 3 inch shoes. Practice makes perfect and don't be silly about it.

There's nothing more sexy than a woman in a pair of stockings in 4.5 inch pumps but you don't get there in a day. =)

Peace to you and yours,
