Today my handsome two (Mr. Mar and Mr18) will be leaving on an all-male sailing trip, not quite America's Cup but they will do their best, I am sure. To be fair I have to tell they asked me first if I wanted to come along before they decided on the all-guy thing and invited the rest of the crew. They have been working hard over the weekend getting the grocery shopping done, packing, reviewing what they need on board, even sailed for an hour or two just to make sure everything is working ok.
They will be gone for about a week. A WEEK!!! I will have the house to myself, I will be the queen of the remote control, I can watch all those romantic movies which make me cry like a crazy teenager and nobody will say a word to me, everything will be in place (meaning there where I place them!) and nobody will misplace them where I cannot find them, I can wax my upperlip and my underarms without hearing complains about the smelly thing on the stove, I will not have red meat nor a single bottle of beer in the fridge, but diet coke and champagne. I can listen to James Taylor and Rod Stewart with his "All American Songbooks" and no teenager will say I am boring . I can blog in my pj's ( well, I do that all the time anyways...wooops!). The possibilities are endless!
I will be a free woman!
And I will love it for about two days. And then I will start feeling lonely and left out so I will have to go out and be sociable in order to have company and someone to talk to. And will be counting down the days until they are back and take over the remote control, fill my fridge with beverages, smelly cheeses and sausages I don't like, leave their clothes in inappropiate places, and I will wish they would go away on vacation again ...
Why are we never happy?
you forgot to say about Italy ... they won the world cup
ReplyDeleteand especially Zidane :D
Enjoy! James Taylor ~ lovely! Champagne even better and the remote control ... words fail me!
ReplyDeleteThere are times in our life that we really need to have time just for ourselves and this is your chance but I am not sure too if a week will be ok. For me it won't.
ReplyDeleteTake Care!
It's true. The first few days are fun and then it gets old... Enjoy your time!

Well, enjoy the two days that you'll be happy by yourself, and then blog like crazy those other days so you don't feel lonely. :)
ReplyDeleteWow!!! This is just tops in euphoria. Wish my hubby would have the gumption to get out while he can. roflamo
ReplyDeleteAha!!! I love Rod Stewart too. He's such a doll, and ohhhhhhhhhhh, that voice. Borning? NEVER!!!
Enjoy, and have a bubbly for me too while you're in the fridge.
Enjoy your week! Don't ruin it by missing anyone. I'd kill for a week alone!
ReplyDeletehave a great week and hope you get to do all the girlie things while the 2 "boys" are out of the house!! Hehe!! :D you never know how long it will be before you get the remote to yourself again. LOL!
ReplyDeleteWell... I was with ya up until the last paragraph! It would take me about a MONTH to get to that part! Ohhhh... is that Rod Stewart I hear crooning in the background? Enjoy Mar! Enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteI am green with envy!
hola sis! I'm getting alone too this week. Mademoiselle D is going on vacation tomorrow (tuesday) with her dad for 3 weeks! But I'm glad for her, she is always so happy waiting for the time to be with him.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are totally right... after a few days you feel alone and need some company.
Well, stay at home because I'll call you anytime!

'cos we spent a lot of time apart during our relationship because of work, MB and I value our time apart now - just as we value time together.

My MM is up - I think you'll like it, honey.....
I'm with CQ! Value time with them and just as importantly time with yourself :0)If you feel lonely just get on your blog ;-)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
Well I hope you enjoy more than 2 days of your alone time! I'm sure they'll both be back before you know it though!
ReplyDeleteIt does sound exactly how I would be. Loveing the alone time for the first few days, and then desparate for my sweet ones to return.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy your alone time, even if you miss your guys!
ReplyDeleteI know you'll enjoy your time for at least 2 1/2 days.
ReplyDeleteSomeday I hope to have a MrM and teen(gasp!) to make me appreciate the alone times. For now, I'll count on my parents/siblings for that.
i'm jealous you know... i would like to know what peace and quiet sound like!!!!! have fun and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWow, I don't think I've had a week alone in years. Hope you enjoy it!
