Home Alone and Lovin’ It

Yesterday my husband went off on a sailing trip to Croatia. He’ll be gone for a week. A blessed, chillaxing, no heavy cooking, no sock-hunting week! As I waved him off in the early hours, I felt almost as if a dead weight had been lifted from my chronically aching shoulders.   I felt lighter. I felt possibility. I felt almost single!

Skipping off to get dressed, I thought about what I would do first. Turn up the radio at full blast for once? Change the bedsheets that I would be slumbering in all by myself later? Cook myself a healthy, meat-free breakfast? In the end I did none of those things. Instead I had a little nap. Well, it was still only 7am! On a Saturday!  

Then I did a lot of aimless pottering, internet surfing, and catching up with friends, for the rest of the day. Brilliant!

Do I feel guilty about this unusual feeling of skippy skippiness? No – not yet! 😀

Although I DO still have the two children here, so I am not ‘Home Alone‘ alone, just adult alone!

This week I am aiming to get a LOT of writing done, a lesser amount of exercise, and a tiny wee smidge of housework. Cooking? Phffffft! That’s what takeaways are for!

We’ll see how THAT pans out…
