All the blue text was written by Ana while the purple text was written by me!

Trouble Notes: The World According to Cat
 
You may know Cat as the lady with the giggle, grins, and cute photos on her blog, but how well do you really know her?  This is one woman you don’t want on your bad side, let me tell you.  Don’t believe me?  Read on!  Hmpf...I never claimed to be nice!

 
What would you do if someone tried to hurt your loved ones?
As a kid, my brother was only 13 months younger than me but according to my mother, he was my responsibility. Until 15 years of age, he was smaller than me…and I was small for my age!.  When the neighborhood bully who was younger than us but twice my size picked on my brother, I put him on the ground, tore his shirt off him and pushed his face in a pile of dog poo! 

As an adult? 

Are you serious? 

I have a lot of guns! 

All kinds!  

You want a more specific answer?

I. Would. Hurt. Them! 
Absolutely no TRY to it…they WOULD be in a world of pain!  

Depending on if they managed to hurt my loved one and how much would determine exactly how much pain and how long. 

Oh…you want an example? 

Hmmm…ok…I might get out one of the shotguns and load it with rock salt and shoot the offender in the buns and thighs…they won’t be sittin’ for a super long time!  That’s the nicest thing I would do.  Yes…this is one of my milder revenges.

How many unique ways can you curse?
ROFL…not sure exactly what you’re asking here…I was raised around truck drivers so I can curse well enough to make a sailor blush.   Had to get creative with my curses once I had children…those little turkeys just love to parrot everything you say…as long as it is something you really don’t want them to!

List your favorite cursing phrases.
Guess my all time favorite curse is a word I said throughout labor…never screamed, hollered, cried, etc.  Just kept repeating this same word over and over.  This word probably should have been the first word for both my children…in fact it was one of the first ones of my oldest son…”Oh sh*t!”
 
Now, my favorite cursing phrases are “son of a biscuit eater”, '”motor trucking firetrucker”, “son of a bunny rabbit”, and “egg sucking dawg”.  
 
And of course, when I’m in a lot of pain, such as when my doctor stuck a needle in my shoulder and dug around (with no anesthetic I might add!) I ran them together  and he learned that he was “a moronic motor trucking son of a biscuit eater!”
 
I might also call people idiots, morons, clowns and of course, my favorite…itch with a capital B!
 
Then there are the insults…my favorites are “go suck an egg”, “bite me”, “go to H E double hockey sticks” and “kiss my tushie!”
 
When you were a child, what did you do to your sibling who annoyed you?
Ana…you stinker!  Annoyed me?!?  That boy did more than annoy me!  He made a mud pie and tried to get me to eat it by telling me it was a chocolate pie…I simply did get him to eat a mud pie. …you can read all about how he TORTURED me and the small revenge I got here. 
 
Just what is the difference between a “barn burner” and a “coming to Jesus meeting?”
A “barn burner” sets your bottom on fire…you think it is NEVER gonna be over and when it FINALLY is, you don’t even want to THINK about sittin’ down for a loooong time…like DAYS!!!!

A “Come to Jesus meetin' “ (get it right Ana ) is an ear chewin’ (aka lecture) to beat all.  By the time it is done, you feel low enough to belly crawl under a snake.  You certainly understand exactly what it is that you did wrong and never, ever want to do it again!  It is separate from a “barn burner” but if you are in a lot of trouble, they can be, combined!  Lord help you if they are!   Shhh Ana…yes, I was on the receiving end of the combination more than once!   

Now do you believe me? However, Cat’s bark is much worse than her bite, truly. She’s really a softie at heart. LOL got her fooled don’t I?
 
What did you think when you held your baby for the first time?
Oh what a beautiful miracle! Neither one of my children was planned but lord have mercy, they were both wanted! I make absolutely beautiful babies…if I do say so myself!  And I do!!!
 
What did you think when you held your grandchild for the first time?
 Oh my…as beautiful as my babies were, my grands were even more beautiful…downright gorgeous!  Basically, just pure D PERFECT!  They sure can make me smile! Even when they are being stinkers.

 
How did you get the nickname “Trouble?”
 LOL  Okay…one of my middle names (yes, I have 2) begins with a T but my daddy said it should be Trouble rather than what it was so…he renamed me.  
 
When you were a child, how many children did you have to play with in your neighborhood?
 Dang…don’t have enough fingers and toes to count that high!  6 + 9 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 3 +  2 + 4 = 37 kids on our street (one block) so we always had someone to play with.
 
Cat has had a great deal of experience with DD, and she has neat thoughts about the topic.
 Not sure how “neat” they are…but I always have thoughts!  LOL 
 
What advice would you like to give couples who hit rough patches while learning DD?
 TTWD/DD is nothing more than a tool to enhance your relationship.  Just as in any relationship (parent/child, friendship, employer/employee, etc.), there are going to be ups and downs.

One of the worst things you can do is to stop communicating which seems to be the default for many of us…talk, write, draw pictures, send up smoke signals, anything…but DO NOT stop communicating.

The other thing I would say, especially for those who have brought TTWD to their spouse/partner…you have done a lot of research and decided this is what you want.  Your partner might go along with it out of love for you and might even see the benefits but that dos not mean they are going to be invested like you are.
 
There is no right or wrong way to incorporate TTWD/DD into your relationship…only what works best for you!    
 
What was your biggest challenge as a DD/ttwd wife/fiancée/girlfriend?
Actually, there were three challenges…
Of course, these really have nothing to do with TTWD/DD…just my personal idiosyncrasies but they sure challenged Matthew at times.

First, I do have a tendency to play word games.  For example, Matthew told me do something on Tuesday and I forgot…when he called me on it, my answer was “oh, you meant today?  You didn’t specify which Tuesday! *giggle*

Second, once you harm (mentally, physically, emotionally) someone I love, I have a tendency to become EXTREMELY angry and have a very hard time reigning in my temper…even when I know I’m not going to be sitting comfortably if I don’t. *sigh* 
 

Yup…Ron says it all!

Third sorta goes along with the second one…As I’ve said before (and I do believe I have posted this pic)…

Along with…


Bottom line?



You’ve seen many negative sides of a spanking relationship. Why do you still believe in DD?
Because I’ve seen and experienced all the positive sides also.   It’s just like with any relationship, just because it ended badly doesn’t mean you don’t want another relationship.

No, TTWD/DD is not for everyone.  Yes, vanilla relationships can be awesome also!  I have been in DD and vanilla relationships and for me…DD is best.  Is it perfect?  H E Double Hockey Sticks…NO!!! Of course, no relationship is perfect. Why?  Because we are human and definitely NOT perfect! LOL  
 
Do you think reading spanking fiction stories can help or hurt a DD relationship? Why?
They can help and hurt…how’s that for an answer? LOL 

Okay…it mainly depends on the reader…

If you are simply enjoying a book, even if you get lost in it, it can help give you ideas you can bring to your relationship so it can help.  Or at least not hurt.   BUT…if you are unhappy in your current relationship and start comparing the hero/heroine, their actions and/or the relationship to your current spouse/partner, their actions and/or your relationship…you are in deep S H * T! 
 
This applies to blogs as well.  If you are reading blogs to make friends and/or get information to discuss with your spouse/partner…no problem.  BUT AGAIN…if you start the comparison BS…you and your spouse/partner will more than likely just end up very unhappy.
 
In your opinion, what is the worst (most painful) implement for a spanking?
Anything wood!  As I keep saying…wood is no good, leather is better and feathers are best!
 
And last but not least…

What will you say to Mrs. Claus this year?
Hey Mrs. C…so happy to see you!  Would you please go spank Ana, Minelle, and Ami…they all need TBB barn burners…do you want to borrow my wooden spoon? 

Oh and Mrs. C...Ana said to tell you that she really did mean to be good this year, but there were a lot of extenuating circumstances that need explanation.
 
BTW…For those who don’t know what TBB is…it stands for “Too Bloody Bad” in Scotsman-speak when Minelle says she doesn’t want or need a spanking.

 
Ooh, I have two more questions for you:
Ha!  Ya see how she is…look above the previous question…she did say “And last but not least…”

How many times have you had to rescue Minelle from her tech-no mistakes?
Oops…was I supposed to be counting?
 
Why doesn't Cat run?

Because Cat doesn’t wanna!

Any questions?
