Bachelorhood

This morning, Mrs. LittleBill up and left me. You might say I drove her to it - literally. She is traveling out to visit our middle daughter and her family to help watch the little monsters while our son-in-law is out of town on a trip. She is also taking a car out to them that they are acquiring from my parents. So, I drove her to pick it up at Mom and Dad's house early this morning.

She plans to come back though, so I am not a permanent bachelor. But for the next little while, I will be eating my high Protein, low carb meal selections off paper plates using plastic forks and spoons, and quaffing my liquids from a paper cup. Because hey, that's what bachelors do, right? I know there are other things bachelors do, but I have already been warned not to do them. So I will content myself with paper products and not putting the seat down on the toilet. It's a wild life around here, let me tell you.

    Just please put a towel down when you sit nekkid on the sofa to watch TV. LOL.

  • It is nice that the remote stays where I put it, I can crank up my tunes, leave socks and underwear on the floor. But throw caution to the wind and try some new food. My GF can't stand curry, so whe

It is nice that the remote stays where I put it, I can crank up my tunes, leave socks and underwear on the floor. But throw caution to the wind and try some new food. My GF can't stand curry, so when she's out of town, out comes the spice rack. Live large. ;-) Think of it as FOOD PORN.

We call this the 'fine china' in our house...reserved for highfalutin' guests that we get from time to time ;)

@@LittleBill

I often wonder what my husband does around here when I leave him. Ha....now I know already that not only does he eat off paper and plastic, he just plain eats fast food crap.

Have at it! Live it up a little!

Hahahahaha! Mrs. LittleBill refers to the carton of half and half as our "cut glass pitcher" when she puts it out on the table after dinner.

Yeah, I'm going to be living it up tonight. Feet up, volume up, drinking Ensure right from the bottle and throwing the empties on the floor. :P

@@LittleBill Ok Bill... i know the temptations are allllll aroud you.. stay true and on the right path.... You can do this... LOL..

Just please put a towel down when you sit nekkid on the sofa to watch TV. LOL.

Soo....the first serious discussion with the MOMD (man of my dreams) was that he had to stop sitting on my couch in the altogether. As I am a Brooklyn girl, I pulled no punches. I leaned in close and whispered in his ear...'I can't have my couch smelling like ass'.

I'm still working on him using plates, eating with a little less 'gusto', and general neatness where none existed before. I love him to pieces so these things are not deal breakers...only little flys that I have to swat away from time to time.

More important...is that he's all in with this relationship. Got a call this morning from my son who is moving the family from Jersey to PA this weekend. As I suspected, his friends are bailing right and left and he now needs mom to drive one of the cars to the new house. Probably.

I won't know till 8:30 tomorrow morning when the friend who offered to drive either shows up or does not. Means that MOMD and I have to take the train from NYC to Jersey, head up to PA with the car, help move stuff when we get up there...or for me, help to watch my grandson, and then....take the bus back to NYC that evening because there is no furniture available for us to use to sleep over.

What was MOMD's reaction to all this? Two words...'road trip!'. I think that trumps a little ass on my couch and crumbs on my floor now and then. :D

@@LittleBill I hope the neighbors didn't have to call the cops on you last night. LOL

Hey, don't forget to crush the cans on your forehead before throwing them on the floor, then all you need are peanuts where you can throw shells on the floor with some sawdust, jk don't eat peanuts. LOL You are alot of fun to chat with.

Ex#1 didn't see the issue with what he called "skid marks" on the sheets, couch, whatever.

(shudder)

Only one of MANY reasons he's an Ex.

Current hubby shuddered upon hearing the story and made derisive comments about Ex#1's hygiene skills. Hubby would also approach your situation with a "whatever we need to do" attitude. Current hubby is a keeper, obviously. :D

@@gowalking So, you laid down the law - no ifs, ands, or butts! :P

What part of PA is your son moving to? He might not be all that far from where I am.

Please ask your MOMD if he knows someone who would like to hook up with a nice Canadian girl!! He sounds awesome and wonderful!

We are far enough out that the cops have to look on a map to find us. And I have that from a cop that was here for an accident in front of the house one time. And the neighbors are blissfully unaware. They don't hear the alarm on my shop if it goes off, and a lot of the time they don't hear us shooting guns!
