I'm always freaked out when my husband isn't here. Keep me company.

1. learn to enjoy your own company, helderheid

[helderheid]

3. Oh just indulge me one night, okay? I enjoy the days alone but I am freaked at night.

[Skittles]

5. oh alright then

coming over to kick your ass - hey, that's company :D :hi:

[helderheid]

6. if I offer you a glass of wine will you refrain from hurting me?

:P

[Skittles]

9. sorry my sweet, I absolutely detest wine

it all tastes like grape juice gone bad to me :D

[helderheid]

16. LOL! My hubby took the jack daniels!

[Skittles]

[littlebit]

23. Tha's great

2. My dear helderheid...

Of course, I'll keep you company, sweetie!

I used to be that way too...

But after I spent a number of years working nights, my fear went away.

I'm not sure just why, either...

I hope you'll get over it someday too!

:hug:

[helderheid]

4. Thank you - I hope I can in my lifetime overcome this fear.

:hug:

[Skittles]

7. I not only work nights

but except for a couple years I have lived alone since 1975 so you could learn from me :)

[helderheid]

10. Teach me, oh great one! :P

I unfortunately suffer from panic attacks. They've become less and less prevalent in my life, however, as a mother of 2 small children and a smoker husband (I smoked until I became pregnant), I am like mother hen on steroids. Having them out of the house has me extra nutty. I wish I could enjoy it. Like I said, I do in the day but at night I get weird.

[Skittles]

13. stay up very late a few nights

leave all the lights on and watch TV or listen to music or read.....take the quiet as a PLUS - I love the night, being away from the herd - wouldn't have it any other way :D

[helderheid]

14. I was an insomniac for many years

[bluesbassman]

8. Here's some company...

and protection! :hi:

[helderheid]

12. GORGEOUS! Both of you! My baby German Sheperd is also out of town

[bluesbassman]

19. Thanks for the compliment, but...

that's not me. Well I do sorta resemble the dark haired one, but the blond, definitely not.

[Lil Missy]

21. OMG! Is that really a dog??? Or a moose?

My theory with dogs has always been that the bigger they are, the bigger babies and more lovable they are IRL. I'd have no qualms about approaching this one for a big snuggle and lovin'.

But Holy poop on a pretzel, can you imagine feeding that beast? Or the poop? Not to mention, you'd have to rent a van to take that pup to the vet!

[helderheid]

18. oh, hey - by the way - thanks. I love DU.

[helderheid]

20. Getting brave and going to bed. Thanks y'all

24. My mom is like that

my dad travels a lot and she totally freaks. I have to stay with her. She's afraid a serial killer will get her. I've told her I won't be much good. I'll just say "She's in the bedroom. Now I'm going home. Where did I put my car keys?"

But now he's retiring and mostly works from home and that is driving her crazy. She'll be on the computer and he'll come in and say "Watcha doin'? Watcha been doin'? Watcha goin' to be doin'?" "Can't you see I'm baking a cake!" At which point I get a call or an email to come over and distract him before she kills him or files for divorce.

Khash.
