Housework and Appearance

It goes without saying that Owner expects me to do all the housework. This has been a key aspect of our FLR relationship for many, many years. i clean the bathroom and the kitchen floor daily, all other rooms are cleaned once a week on a rota (each room/space has a specific day). The fridge and oven also get regularly cleaned, the windows and front door less frequently. i do all the cooking (although Owner, who is a fabulous cook, does sometimes choose to cook), i wash-up and clean all the dishes, put out the rubbish etc and generally endeavour to keep things tidy and to a standard of Owners liking (not always successfully it must be said).

In truth i actually enjoy cleaning and take a lot of satisfaction in maintaining Owners home in the state She desires. It is an important part of my role as Her housewife. So ingrained are my 'chores' i don't really even think of them, they come automatically to me. In fact, on the odd occasion when i am excused them, when i am ill or if Owner has taken me out for example, i get stressed about not doing them. i feel discombobulated, out of sorts. Naturally i am expected to catch-up when i am next able. i always do so with a happy heart knowing that i am making Owners' life that little bit more relaxed and enjoyable and providing Her with a home and an environment fit for Her to live in.

Today (Saturday) has been very much a housework day. Owner left the flat late morning to meet up with some girlfriends. i escorted Her to the station and then, as soon as i got home, set about completing my domestic chores. i made full use of Owner's absence to hoover and mop all the floors, something She expects me to do but which She finds annoying as the noise of the hoover disturbs Her. Owners' absence provided the perfect opportunity to sweep, hoover and mop to my hearts content, free of any concerns that i might annoy Owner as i did so.

i also love the fact that, in our relationship, it is very much me and my responsibility to keep the home in a state Owner desires., i love that Owner is able to go out and relax and have a good time with Her friends whilst i stay at home and do my chores and complete the other tasks She has assigned to me to complete in Her absence. She is very much in charge of me and my time and i for one would not want things any other way. i get to show my love for Her through my service to Her. She in turn, gets has a wife whom She can tell what to do.

i will remain at home until Owner is ready to return and then She will message for me to come and collect Her from the station and escort Her back. i have no idea when that might be and Owner knows She is free to stay out and do entirely as She pleases safe in the knowledge that Her wife will be waiting for Her summons. My life revolves around Owner, i would not want it any other way.

i have no desire or need to go out myself without Owner other than for work or to run errands for Her. i am blessed in that Owner enjoys my company, as i do Hers, and will regularly take me out for a meal or drinks. But that has become the only socialising i do - other than occasional necessary family visits. For me to leave the flat without Her requires me to obtain prior permission from Owner. But i genuinely have no such desire to do things without Her. Outside of work my life is here and at Her side. i do miss Her greatly when She is out but i am also happy knowing She is enjoying Herself and having a good time and that She will later return to me, Her wife and the home i keep for Her.  That is how i have come to live my life and what a wonderful life it is to get to live it in service to my wonderful Owner.

Owner has also recently taken a heightened interest and shown greater vigilance in my appearance. She has has, of late, punished me for, on occasions wearing clothing or footwear that is worn and which reflect badly on me and on Her. She expects a wife who She can be proud of and who is a good ambassador for Her and Her standards, who looks good and well kept. My wearing socks or trousers with holes in or boots that are worn lets Her down. She has, accordingly, clamped down on this has punished me a few times for this reason.

She has also grown tired of my hair being long (it has only been cut once in the past 18 months) observing that thin, fine hair like mine does not look good when long. Accordingly, She has chosen a salon and a new style for me to go and discuss and get done next week. i love the fact that Owner takes such interest in my appearance and i love that She has chosen a style She wants to see me in.

i have already grown quite accustomed to Owner choosing and ordering food for me in restaurants and part of me would love for Owner to accompany me to the salon and to discuss and agree with the stylist in person how She wants my hair to be done. But, i know that would also use up Her time and a key part of my role is to maximise the amount of free time Owner has available to do other things and not have to waste Her time with me. She has already spent valuable time researching and finding a style She wants me to have, all i need to do now is to talk it through with the stylist to try and realise Owners' vision for me.

Again, i am lucky to have an Owner who invests such time in me and my appearance and i need to get better at ensuring i always present myself to a high standard and stop letting Her down through my appearance and the clothes i wear. i would actually love to have Owner choose my clothes for me each day. In fact, we did once try this. However, it quickly transpired that this involved a lot of work and effort for Her so was quietly shelved. Instead, i have to seek Her permission to wear what i do. Owner, of course, has absolute control over what clothes are purchased for me and will also, periodically do a sweep of my wardrobe and recycle items She considers i no longer need. 

i think, given the need She has felt to punish me for my appearance of late, that i need to get better myself at weeding out any items of clothing that may no longer be to Her standard so that i don't let Her down again the way i have.

In other news i am currently in 'boy mode' as a punishment and so have not been permitted to wear make-up or anything girly since yesterday. My 'boy mode' ends tonight. i also know that i will be  spending part of tomorrow in my cage, again as a punishment for an infraction on my part. i was also electrocuted on my bum and around the entrance of my 'pussy' repeatedly earlier in the week, again as a punishment.

Last night, after work, Owner also administered my regular maintenance disciplining. This time She chose to use Her cat-shaped paddle (nick-named 'gatuno'). Here's an image of it resting on my bottom

As a thank you to Her for disciplining me i provided Owner with a back massage.

So, in short, all is good here. i hope all is equally good wherever you are and in your lives too.
