After getting over my 2 days of punishment for my own stupidity, I am now frantically trying to earn back some relief from having heavy metal rings resting on my ankles which are rubbing with every step I make. the only partial relief from the discomfort is to wear my tracksuit bottoms low on my waist and wrapping the bottoms around the shackles.
I need to earn 50 points to get my socks back and 100 to get my hi-top trainers back, yesterday I bagged 5 points which could have been 7 if I didn’t argue. Today was a good gain as virtually everything scored high: 3 out of 5 for breakfast, 4 out of 5 for my wife’s packed lunch for her work, 8 out of 10 for dinner and 5 out of 10 for cleaning and tidying the house. I now have 25 points. Now it’s the weekend the opportunity to earn a high number of points is limited. Providing I behave I could reach the first target (50) by Tuesday or Wednesday, let’s hope I can do everything asked and not make too many mistakes and lose points as opposed to gaining points.
This points system has been very successful in keeping me in check by working hard, behaving myself and setting goals. i have got over the sad spell of time as I am now kept busy so no time to think about getting sad, also the punishment made me realise how bad thing could become “that’s was real sadness for me”.

question .. do you need a total of 100 points for the shoes (50 for socks, 50 for shoes) or is 50 for the socks and an additional 100 for the shoes ?
and its good toi know that you are out of your sadness .. you oanyl needed to be taken to task (and fiurative leash)
speaking of leash .. you wife wrote in one of her comments that you are on a short tether chain – so you have been on a real leash too, anchored to some (hopefully sturdy) pointß

Just to clarify, once I reach 50 points I get my socks, another 50 and I’ll get my shoes at 100 points total.
The tether chain is very securly in place and ready to lock to my shackles at anytime, this stops me from venturing downstairs where theirs food, television and the computer.

would you be given chores while tethered on the chain? preferebvly long and boring chores? writing lines? sorting a large heap of small items?

When tethered, I can do nothing as my movement is so restricted. The worst thing about being in that situation, (which I was for 48 hours) is that it very boring and gave me time to think about the predicament I am in. It also makes me very aware how easy it is to misbehave and be punished.
