Soon to be a bachelor again.....

Chief, when(if) you start looking for a lady again, be careful. I think I married one of those cat ladies, there are 7 f'ing felines in my house, that I know of.
Cha Cha, my first wife was a proud black woman, boy, your girl sure looks like my grand daughter. Thanks again, for all you did for us!
Jeez, when I was a kid many moons ago, people hardly ever split up. Now it seems everyone has been married a couple of times. Your sure not alone Chief, for gosh sake, enjoy yourself as much as possible, and d'ont rush into anything!
 
So does that mean that the garage apartment is up for rent? :kilroy:

My father in law will still be living there, but starting in Sept, he will have to pay me $200 a month. I have not charged him a penny until now. But I have not been able to pay anything but the interest on the equity loan I took out to build his apartment. Even at $200 a month, he is getting a deal, and he knows it. I don't know how long he'll stay here though. We get along ok, but he's used to my wife catering to his beck and call. And I don't. He's 87, but still very active; drives, etc.......

Welcome to the CLUB, Navy Chief,

You will see the BIG difference, and you will have a lot of fun being alone again! But bear in mind, you are not really alone....

Chacha, I appreciate your kind words. I have never been comfortable with being alone. I guess there's a first time for everything.

Chief,
I went thru one of the "friendly " ones (well 90% anyway)
She even called a few months later and asked if I'd changed my mind and wanted some of the furniture I left her.
We both remarried eventually (I did the photos for their wedding), she had a couple of kids and they asked us to be god-parents to both of them. So it CAN be good...

On the other hand, yep, there'll be some lonely days but you have friends here -- and if you ever miss the nagging, well, we can look after that too:icon_lol:

Chief , as you can see , divorce is at a astronomical pace now adays here in the states . Yes , I also belong to the club as do many of our members here . Divorced 17 years ago (92) and lived the single life for about 3 years and really didn't care for it as much as I thought I would . I met my present wife in 95 and we have been together ever since . Important to note that we have only been married the last 2 years . A fact that I am not real proud of but she new I was really gun shy when it came to marriage yet she stuck by me through thick and thin . I lost my parents(mom in 2005 , dad in 2007) and these heart wrenching life experiences change me forever . She has been by my side through thick and thin . My first wife and I have always talked throughout the years(we have a (40 y/o son) so we have remained pretty civil . I didn't admit it way back but I now tell her that I share about 90% of the blame and (The big D) should never have happened . I am blessed with a wonder wife now . Out marriage is sure as hell not perfect but I prefer it over single life although I did tolerate it and adapted fairly well . Hang in there and ENJOY single life . Maybe one of these days you might meet a person that will fullfill your life . Bottom Line : Be happy !

Chief,
Give me a shout I'm just down the road from you, barely 15 minutes from Chattanooga, we'll go grab a beer or three. I went through the Divorce thing as well many moons ago.

I will, thanks! I am about 1 3/4 hour's drive from either Chattanooga or Knoxville. I'm about 50 minutes from Murphy, NC, and 30 minutes from Blue Ridge, GA.
