    Smile Home alone

    With a husband who works from home, 3 kids and a boarder I am never actually alone in my house. Except for today. Everyone has gone out to see a movie and I am alone. Completely alone, except for the animals . It is such a weird feeling. i am torn between mopping the floors while there is no one here to walk on them or just to sit and listen to the silence. Amazing how something so little can be so special when it is something you never get. Silence is golden when you never hear it...

    Well, I am in same boat - DH has gone to visit his sister for couple of days, son is out to GF's soon and then will just be me and 2 dogs - my own and my other sons - am dog sitting while he is camping for long weekend.

    am out numbered by dogs 2:1

    Am getting bored already - if I get really bored might take pic of the dogs and post on here

    Only hubby and I at home now after years of having a full house it's great isn't it sometimes he's a pain in the butt I love it when he goes fishing. We're both retired so he's underfoot all the time been together 36 years so you think we'd be used to each by now.

    Enjoy the silence Cayte as you can mop the floors anytime when all are in bed but this seems like a special time for you so enjoy the moment....
    Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live !

    I would mop the floors, then go have a lie down whilst no one is around to annoy me!

    What is this mopping you speak of?

    Enjoy the quiet. Do whatever you want!

    Re: Home alone

    Well we know that I'm home alone with the Furbies......as for silence, forget it. Yesterday it was Beach Boys at full bore....today it's Moody Blues. No one to complain

    Have a lie down with a good book (never have time when everyone is at home and put some of your music on.
    I am beautiful inside and out so I should love myself unconditionally.

    Grab jumper, a scarf or even a dog.
    That'll warm you up, you jolly great snob!!

    Actually lie on the floor and drink gin based cocktails... that sounds like it might be a fun way to spend time alone.
