LDD's Weekly Recap: May 13th - 19th

weeklyrecapmay1319

It's Sunday, and here at Learning Domestic Discipline that means it's Weekly Recap time!  We had an exciting week with yet another new feature and download for readers to enjoy.  This time the download isn't something to read - it's something to listen to!  Let's get you all up to speed with the latest happenings here at LDD.

WeeklyRecapPostList

Mailbag Monday: Week 7 - Working though difficult HoH emotions, getting in a "submissive state of mind", and leaving marks after spankings are all topics addressed in this week's round of Mailbag Monday questions - perhaps the most challenging set of questions to date.  

Introducing the Learning Domestic Discipline Podcast Series! - We do our best to embarrass ourselves in a 45 minute downloadable podcast that covers the LDD definition of domestic discipline, the pros and cons to living the lifestyle, and much more.  It's our first ever podcast, so we welcome any and all feedback that will help us in improving future podcasts!

Five Things Friday: Middle of the Month Edition - A milestone for Chelsea, two upcoming months full of holidays and celebrations, and a Pinterest site that will strike your funny bone in this week's Five Things Friday post.

LDD's Weekly Recap: May 6th - 12th

mothersdayweeklyrecap

Another week is in the books! But, before we get into the weekly recap, we want to wish all the mothers out there a very happy Mother's Day! As parents ourselves, we know how hard you work and you deserve this special day- we hope everyone has a great Mother's Day! 

This week's Mailbag Monday questions were really difficult to answer, and if you missed the Saturday Stories post, it's one that we feel every wife wanting or considering domestic discipline should read.  We think a lot of experienced couples will be able to relate to it as well.  Let's get you all caught up with this week's LDD content!

WeeklyRecapPostList

Mailbag Monday: Week 6 - We opened up about some things we personally struggle with in our own domestic discipline marriage, and we got a question that raised some concerns in this week's Mailbag Monday.  A reader was also kind enough to make us aware of a great new app!

Punishing When the Wife is Angry - Clearly it's important that the HoH not punish when he's angry, but what about times when the wife is angry?  We discuss and explore this topic and offer a way to work through the problem if you ever find yourself in that situation.

Saturday Stories: "The Reality of Starting Domestic Discipline" - Guest writer Liza wrote a wonderful article about having false expectations when first starting out with the domestic discipline lifestyle in this week's Saturday Stories feature.

  • Over 11,000 votes have been cast for the LDD Retreat location.  Have you cast your vote yet?  Cast your vote here!
  • The DD Wives Club is getting closer to completion. We're building our own databases, so it's taking a lot longer than anticipated.  We know a lot of you are excited about it, and we are too!  Thanks for being so patient with us as we put it all together.  It'll be worth the wait!  In the meantime, you can sign up for the LDD Network here (your membership will automatically transfer over to the DD Wives Club).  Here's some information about the LDD Network if you aren't familiar with it.
  • Unless we get an overwhelming number of requests for it, we're going to cancel our plans to create a comment archive.  It's a TON of work to do, and we're not feeling as though it would be worth the time and effort.  We'd rather use that time and effort on a bigger project that would better benefit the community.  We apologize for any disappointment this may have caused anyone.
  • The LDD Springtime Promotions are currently running, and they offer TWO new products!  Find the right package for you(Promos end on June 1st, 2013)
We're looking forward to next week!  See you all tomorrow for Week 7 of Mailbag Monday.
