...........without our women, Wifes off on an Alaskan vacation with four of her girlfriends and one of their mothers, I have been living in man pig hell for five days now eating mostly meat, drinking beer, scotch and homemade wine, not taking my vitamins, and smoking cigars, hell, last night I fell asleep in my recliner with a Glock 21 in my pocket and an original 45-110 Sharps buffalo rifle across my lap, woke this morning and had BLT's and black coffee for breakfast.

Just yesterday afternoon I found myself surfing the web with a cold ribeye steak in my hand and a quart of ice cold coke zero for lunch, no shirt, boots or socks, what a slob! ; ], I have been shooting rifles and pistols day and night, casting and paper patching Sharps rifle bullets, to hell with sending off bills or any form of paperwork, going to town, and fugg the telephone too, so yes, without them we would surely die off in a few years, but, man pig hell aint to bad, for awhile!

Sounds like a good time to me!

So normal here. Enjoy.

I don't see a problem

Lol

So good to be in charge, for awhile

Enjoy gunner, she will return soon to show you the error of your ways

I hate wakin up on the couch in the morn with half a wasted beer on the table and a dip in.....

Roughing it gunner500 style. Enjoy!

LOL Men, but yes, I did throw a pile of dirty laundry in the machine this morning, had to go hit the kill switch, that sombitch started bucking around like a thrashing machine, rearranged the wet mess and fired it back up, all good now.

Rooster, MTNSnake and OEH, it sure is relaxing, I recommend it highly!

2LTQ, yes, my freedom comes to an end Sunday ; ]

Damnit Raeford, bet the beer was skunky and your lip was sore.

Sounds like a good time to me.
No rules when the wife is gone.

Thanks Boomer!

LOL, such a good time I'd be dead in a year.

You better clean the freakin kitchen before she comes back or you'll never hear the end of it.

The worst part is when you find out that you were spitting in the beer.......then drinking it.

What is this laundry thing one speaks of?

Far be it from me to go pilfering through her kitchen, I have been throwing the bones out to the Rockwelders and apple cores and banana peelings over the back fence, will take the trash out before Sunday though! ; ]

You forgot, "......die HAPPY".

The pile was getting to big to step over on the way out the door, it wreaked too, did brush hog the range and got caught out in the rain two or three times, that wet sweaty chit lying on the bricks will begin to ferment.

Yes, and grinning!

You make it sound like a bad thing.

I was married 25 years. She was B itchy all the time, I walked on eggshells.

Damnit, this poor chicken agreed to never give me any BS before we married, she has kept her word, and I have honored my promise too.

Sometimes you just gotta let the dogs out to run!

They come back dirty, tired, and smelling bad.....but happy.

And they are always glad to see their owners!

Mine didn't make no promises.....but we've stuck it out.
Kinda, almost, sorta miss mine after a couple of days when she's gone......kinda, sorta.

I'd kill for a weekend like that.

Damn right RBB, aint nothing a good shower and a case of febreeze wont fix!

LOL Raeford, I miss mine too, a good woman brings sweetness to a dirty pig mans home and life.

12 whole days BNB!

In that case, clean the toilet too, and leave the seat down.

41 years August 2. I know these things.

Heck, sometimes I even remember to get her a card.

'm doing better tho, especially on enunciation, since she mistook "You can get your own card" for "You can get your own car".

I find wifey’s absence once in a while provides a great reminder of the many reasons I love her. Sounds like you and I might agree on that.

No greater gift than a wonderful wife, but I’ll admit your OP sounds enviable even if only for a limited time...

Bwaahaha Las, I rarely touch the lid, I kill grass off the back porch, clean the toilets? damnit man, I haven't cheated! and congrats on the 41 years.

As long as she was on her medication....

Agreed efw, and all BS aside, they bring the correct balance to a mans life.

Damn Viking, sounds like you had a ringer! bet you're glad to be shed of that one.

^^^This^^^ 🤠

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ It Is ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ; ]

Sounds like a fine time, though the cats occasionally force me back to reality

Sounds like a dream vacation!

I feel great Tex, cats? two or four leggers? ; ]

Hers or mine!

Four legged

There's a man that's read the US Constitution and UNDERSTANDS what FREEDOM MEANS!!

GO FOR IT!

Bet the wife not having more fun than you Dude!!

Sounds like man pig heaven to me!

I can't do that chitt at the house. My OCD kicks in and I'd clean the house while she was gone better than she ever can. If I'm at the lease I can do that, just not at home.

So.. where do I sign up?

To do what I do, just in a different place.

Love it. I'm in the same boat. Wife's up a the Cabin in PA with her dad , Westerns channel on, cigars, whisky and elk, pork, cheese, onions etc on the menu. Dogs picking up the scraps when I drop them

You have no idea dude.

I really am happy for those guys that have great wife’s, that’s the way it should be.

We gonna die anyway.

I might die sooner but I'd die richer. lol

That's why you had to "adjust" it when the machine started bouncing. lol You may find you need to wash it again, if your picky about stains and such.

Sounds like 12 days of watching porn can really wear a guy down!

Jealous here.

And I'd die happier.

have fun gunner . I did that for a year when my wife was taking care of her mom . she came home and said I was still the pig she married .going on 23 years

Welcome to my world.

My wife has a broken wheel and I am doing everything. I guess she will soon appreciate man pig hell, or not

There is much iron in your words of life....

I just dropped off 3 weeks worth of vacation laundry at the cleaners for fluff and fold, wow that sounds like a Bangkok treat. We have a restaurant delivery service w/ Amazon that will take care of another basic need, city boys can survive.

Could think of worse ways to go.......

Dropped my wife at the airport a week ago, picking her up tomorrow night....have about hit my limit.

That's pretty much my life since I got divorced.

Plus since I got rid of her worthless ass I figured out I've got a lot more spending money.

It ain't bad.

Sounds like a great vacation to me. I still have the woman and two daughters at home.

Saw my mom, yearly visit. Said for me to throw everybody out and go hunting and fishing.

Said ive served my sentence.....to hell w everybody else.

Im supposed to plant flowers tomorrow before work. Think ill go shooting instead.

Big question is how many cups, plates, forks, spoons, and knives did you use?


I use one of each the whole week when the wife is gone..........I got better things to do than wash the damn dishes!!

Been going on for millennium

My wife likes to visit the kids more than I do so she gets a first class plane ticket every now and then (for her comfort, of course) and I get to stay home. Its a pretty good deal and she actually felt guilty about the expense and encouraged me to go on a fishing or hunting trip. II havent punched the guilt ticket or admitted how good a deal it is for me.

I used one each for four years between marriages. In that four years the dish washer seized up, I never used it. My current wife couldn't believe how miserly I was.

I picked my wife up at the airport today. She was gone for three weeks visiting her family in the Philippines, had a good visit, and was glad to be home. I am just damned glad she is back and ready for things to get back to normal around here. Hang in there Gunner. You know I'm laughing with you, not at you. She'll be back before you know it.

My wife is gonna be gone for a week in August for training. I'm not sure what I'll do with myself.

If it rains, I will probably deep clean the house after work. If it doesn't rain, I'll be trying to keep up with the yard. I may drink excessively while doing these tasks, however .

Exciting life we live when we get older, huh?

LMAO....😂🤣😎

I’m batch’n it too right now...Just me and the dog doing what two dudes do best while the wife’s away. Making a serious mess of the house...kitchen is providing ready to eat meals from leftovers the wife made...Toilet seats are up, beds not made. Gun safes are open with rifles laying on the kitchen counter, table and loveseat and the wonderful smell of Hoppe’s #9 replacing potpourri.

Anyone know how to get gun oil stains outta carpet?

I look forward to some "alone time" when my crew goes on a girl trip. I was a bachelor until I was 39, so I'm used to it. If we didn't have pets to take care of, I'd go on a man-cation while they are gone.

Sounds like heaven to me.

That was my life for the last ten or so years before retirement four years ago. I was alone in, generally, not great places. When I got home I spoke nothing of work. When I retired we both thought "uh oh", full time together every day... Well, thankfully we have sorted it and I do know all is best when she is home. Minutes ago, here in north Idaho, we were outside under the front porch about to go to bed and a pretty healthy thunderstorm passed. We stayed up and enjoyed it.

Meat, beer, water, coffee.
Tha that my menu when left alone.
The kitchen is cleaner than when everyone is here.
If I'm not drinking from a can, its out of the yetti coffee cup.
A plate, and silverware. Takes 3 minutes to do my dishes and wipe things down.
1 towel, 1 washcloth.

Amazing how 4 people make 10 times the mess of 1.

I have a very good wife for me.
Not perfect. (Closer than me though)
If she wasn't here, I can't imagine wanting to bother with another.
I hear about wives at work, I honestly wouldn't last a week with most.

Opportunity knocking bud.........


Well ya while you were away I decided to surprise you and get new carpet installed, Ya like it?

That is part and partial the prob-lem-o. It is new carpet....Yeah, I’m thinking flowers and a spa day for her, or I cut out the stains with a carpet knife and convince her the dog did it. They’re small stain holes for Gawd Sakes. 😎

Every once in a while, a man just has to get in touch with his inner self. ;-{>8

Gunner, my missus (best friend of 31 years) did the same thing a year or 2 ago !

Alaskan cruise with 2 girlfriends from Australia. 7 Day cruise + travel both ways, 11 days total.

It was / I was great for 3 days, but couldn't wait for her to get home after that !!

Well.....You could move to another state before she gets home.

Sounds like you’re enjoy your free time Jerry. Just make sure the house is clean before momma gets home. Lol

I hear Florida is nice. I don't buy it, but that's what I hear.

Sooooooo what’s different?

What, no ice cream for breakfast with your eggs and hot sauce, wimp!
