I never looked at it like that before but yes it does show how wonderful Michelle is Dennis. You miss her - you really, really miss her!

Pssssttttt - let her read this topic......

I love it too when I get an entire night to myself, in this house. With the remote, or to clean - and I mean, really, really clean. Doesn't happen often....but when it does happen, it's nice. But here is what happens - when I walk past the door to this spare room (where our iMac is), I log on and before you know, that vacuum cleaner is collecting dust. LOL

Enjoy the break Dennis....so how is that scarf coming along? he he

Dennis, I'd suggest one of your romatic dinners for her homecoming. Crack a bottle of that red wine out that she like so much and put your cooking apron on.

I hope she gets home soon, Dennis. Why don't you really surprise her and have all the laundry, dishes, vacuuming, dusting, etc. done when she walks in the door. I'll bet she'd have a surprise for you too.

At the rate I'm going I'll be a bachelor again in about 7 years or sooner.

Iteresting Topic.

I am guilty of near ineptness when left to fend for myself, I admit it.

Recently my wife was sick with the flu which in affect, renders me a bachelor. It was supper time, and the task of finding some food was now upon me. So...as I stand looking into the freezer with that look of total bewilderment, my wife asks what I'm looking for. I tell her, "Don't worry honey, I can take care of my self. You just close your eyes and go back to sleep". I know there is food to be had in there, but it would require knowledge of where to start looking. Our freezer is packed solid. I go back and forth between cubbards, freezer, and refridge, only to return to the countertop where the peanut butter jar is always sitting. Simple enough now, just find the bread! "Honey, I hate to bother you, but where do we keep the bread these days"? Next comes the jelly. Again I stand staring hopelessly into the refridge hoping the jar of jelly will jump out into my hand. I begin removing items and placing them on the floor hoping to reveal my prize. My wife says, "What are you doing now"? I reply, "It's ok honey..go back to sleep, I can find what I'm looking for all by myself". Now the refridge starts beeping because I have had the door open too long and again my wife is up. this time she comes out to the kitchen and in a mere second has her hand on the jelly. There it was right in the door of course.

I hate being a bachelor!
