Ok so some people have been saying that while I post a lot of pictures which is good it shouldn't be a substitute for a decent story. So hear you go.
As I was doing some organizing, I came across some old pictures I had taken of some of my old toys. Back when I first got into the scene I was looking for things that looked kind of cool, but had no idea what was quality. I also never thought I would like canes, and now I own 3. I found the best place to buy ridding crops is at a crop shop (horse, saddley shop) I bought about 5 of them for the same price my local fetish store sells 1 ridding crop. I also didn't realize why people would buy lots of different floggers. I figured back then that 1 or 2 would be plenty, becuase every flogger is the same, and feels the same right :) While looking at my former Mistress, and Master's toy bag I knew I was way off and had to reset my thinking.
So please enjoy my before and after Pictures, and see what I have learned.
Before

and After



My former Mistress asked me one time before we started to play "what was my favorite toy"
I couldn't give her a good answer because I never felt I had a favorite toy since they all hurt :)
At the time I was allowed to pick 2 toys for her to "reward" me with. So to pick 2 of my favorite toys for her to reward me 175 times was a little hard. I have been thinking back to that question, and now I had an answer. It would have to be the wooden paddle she gave me for my birthday. I have to say hands down that moment after she gave me my birthday spanking and gave me the paddle she used has to be the best experience I have ever had in my scene life, and would now proudly say the wooden paddle is my favorite toy.
(The Paddle is the one that is propped against the wall in the 3rd picture)
