    Upsides/ Downsides to living alone !

    Upsides

    The TV is always on the "right" channel. The volume levels are always perfect as well. If you want to watch "Fight Club" for the 12th time. Go ahead !

    You decide "whats for dinner"

    Privacy! Unless you spy on yourself, absolutely!

    "Are you crazy"? Is no longer a question someone else asks.

    You have already asked yourself at least a few times and answered your own question simply by asking your own self said question.

    Your own jokes are amazingly hysterical!
    All of them !

    "Is that your glass on the coffee table"? What glass?

    House temp? Perfect!

    Downsides

    Mops, brooms, dishwashers, taking out the trash , stoves etc don't happen unless YOU do it.

    There are silver linings in most clouds, even Covid!

    Are you gathering with your backstabbing, angry, two faced, deceptive family members on Thanksgiving?

    Nope, Covid

    My favorite part of living alone was being alone on the holidays. All my life I endured horrible vicious fights every holiday from New Years to Christmas. I remember the first morning I woke up alone on Thanksgiving. My joy was incalculable. I treated myself to a Chinese Food spread. I cuddled the dog and went for a walk.

    Sometimes the best gift you can give is your absence.

    I lost my prize and no longer live alone. I again endure the fighting. Grandchild Emma is visiting Thanksgiving to add her sobbing to the screams and smashed dishes.

    I used to live alone. If you do, I am jealous already.

    I remember one Thanksgiving as a child......my Aunt decked my step father, knocked him on his ASS!

    She had heard he wasn't a very nice man to her nieces and nephew.

    I used to guard my holiday solitude from those who would badger me into visiting because it is not right to be alone. Believe it or not there are those who won't take no for a gracious answer. For those who are so full if their own good will they won't let go, I have special punishment. At one such Christmas dinner the well meaning insisted. I went. I told a five year old boy he was adopted. His parents didn't love him and was going to give him back. An elderly neighbor was invited because her children lived too far. I badgered her needling that her children didn't want her. No one wanted her. She was here as a loser. When everyone sat for dinner I passed on all the food. Stood up before my empty plate and announced that I was leaving. To the host I said "you destroyed my holiday. I'll bet you never make the same mistake again. Never forget. I didn't want to be here."
