home alone

so, when my man is away for days on business I can:


  • be in total control of the remote control

  • be the only one snoring loud in bed

  • take it easy on dinner services

  • have noone all laid back on the sofa saying" wouldn't be good with some coffee?" and then totally take for granted I should get up and make it !

  • go to bed early with a book, read until late and go straight to sleep after...

  • stay on the internet all night if I like without anyone commenting...


but, also



  • I miss out on the fun/strange tv-programs as I never surf the channels..

  • am all alone in bed....

  • long for tasty gourmet meals ( he IS a chef...)

  • noone to share the pot of coffee I make anyway with, and must throw half of it out...

  • again, am all alone in bed....

  • getting way to nerdy with the internet...

well, guess it is a good thing he is coming home tonight, after being away for 5 days...

I am pretty sure Bundy the Bundle of Joy will be extatic too when he comes home tonight...

I am married to a firefighter so I have learned to love all of the things I can do without an audience like watching chick flicks and eating junk food. I of course prefer for him to be home, but sometimes it is just nice. So I get it.

kasha: it's good with some quality time on your own, as long as you know it is for a limited period :o)
but I definitely wouldn't want to be without my alone time...

Bundy wears a harness like Thor's, except Thor's is red. Did Bundy enjoy the horse? We took Thor to the Christmas tree farm when he was just a pup, and they have reindeer there. Thor barked very hard at the reindeer to be sure they knew who was in charge. My dearly beloved decided a number of years ago that if he had a business trip, everyone would go with him. It solves those lonely nights.

Marjie: Bundy's harness is only used to keep him safe in the car.. and it's a small battle to get it on him, so we leave it on until the car driving is over for the day... Bundy is very interested in horses - ever since he was little we have brought him to my daughter's riding school.
So, for business trips your husband brought 9 kids and a wife? :o)
