I hate living alone sometimes.

You can come live here...I always have a stash of ice cream!! Currently it's Ben and Jerry's Red Velvet Cake...it's AMAZING

When I lived with a roommate, there were always working and stuff, so I'd be home by myself a lot. Their house was just... too big. I guess I just find smaller places less creepy. Oh, and I totally get the putting on your pants things. Sometimes, I just wish there was a chinese food delivery place around. Damn pants and my needing to not be nude in public :C

I'm so thankful that I have really good friends who live near by and will come take care of me. A friend came over Saturday to watch me puke my guts out and monitor me to see if they needed to take me to the hospital for IV fluids because I'd been puking too much to hold down fluids. Yeah I know I have really good friends. She's getting something crazy for Chirstmas for rescuing my ass by bringing me ginger ale and taking care of me.

Bwhahahaha!! Did you get that after my text to you?

And mp, don't tempt me! I am so sex deprived that I may take you up on it

Think of all the calories you save by not eating ice cream in the middle of the night!

I get scared alone too, sometimes I am glad we are in an apartment. Although I get scared more about ghosts and stuff than about axe murderers.

OMG girl are you okay? It's rough being sick and living alone. I'm so grateful my mom lives close by, she just dropped off soup and grapefruit juice. I'm glad you have friends to help you! I've had a lot of friends offer which is nice but I always feel funny taking them up on it which I know is stupid because they want to help! I know when I have friends that are sick I want to help too.

bk - Last night I went to Target - thankfully they're open until 11 - I ended up with Sea Salt Caramel gelato. Ah-mazing.

MMM that sounds really yummy. Especially since I am sitting home with a massive sore throat! I can't leave the house after 8pm b/c my son is usually asleep so I have to plan ahead for ice cream runs! Probably saves me a ton of calories!

I usually love living alone, I'm just scared that if something happens to me there will be no one there to help. Like one of my friends went home from the doctor, took some medication, had a bad reaction, and could barely get off the floor, her husband had to take her to the ER. What if that happened to me? I'd be fucked.

I worry about this too.
I really need to teach my son how to dial 911. I have a password on my phone too so that doesn't help but at 7 he is probably old enough.
I think my hypothermic shock on Sunday was my wake up call that it is time to teach him! Fortunately I wasn't home alone with him at the time but I could have been.

I did this Saturday night! STBX husband would never do it for me though either!

bully - OMG. Your post about the guy biting your lip. Holy hell girl it made me so jealous. I'm getting desperate over here.

Did I mention that he also pulled my hair a bit too? Mmm....

OMG, is it Talenti gelato??? If so, the coconut is amazing as well!

A few months ago I was really scared living alone with ds. After resolving the weird electrical issues that caused my lights to flash non-stop late at night, I am finally sleeping again. (And yes, I am embarrased to admit, living alone without a hearing person besides my baby was hard for me but I am overcoming this as I go on)

Dinner time is rough for me! I feel like it is impossible to cook with an overactive 2 year old. I used to make gourmet dinners but not anymore. This sometimes makes me sad and wishes I had company to share and take turns keeping ds occupied. It used to be one of my favorite times of the day.

[dakotadangerdog]

omg heavenly why is that embarrassing to admit!?!?

I get nervous standing at my stove for too long. Because I'm facing a wall, and can't see any windows or doors. Like someone could sneak up behind me. And I CAN hear! And I have a dog, who would obviously freak the fuck out if someone was in my house. I feel nutty, it's been 2 years since my divorce and I haven't heard from XH in months, but I'm always scared him or someone is going to break into my house.

It makes me feel helpless which an awful feeling. I am thankful I live in today's time where we have text phones, wi fi internet service, doorbell light signaler, vibrating alarm clocks and baby cry alert and so on.
I shudder to think what it would have been like to be a single deaf mom prior to the 90's and that is not so long ago.

I'm find now. Thanks. It was a bad reaction to an.antibiotic. I've had probably every scary thing happen that one can living alone, including throwing out my back and having to.be rescued by the paramedics. Yet I'm fine. You'd be amazed what you can survive.

[dakotadangerdog]

Ugh yeah the time I pulled a muscle in my back was terrible!! I could barely even sit on the toilet myself lol
