Today I finally realised just how hard it is to keep a house in good shape when you live alone!

The washing is done and waiting for the iron, the floors have had their first hoover since Christmas and there are still 4 beers in the fridge.

I can not wait for my partner to find a job in this area so that she can move in and give another helping pair of hands, not to mention how empty a double bed is when you sleep in it on your own!

I thought being able to live on my own for a little bit would be my dream, but it is slowly turning in a nightmare. I hate it, not talking to anyone in the flesh, just responding to words on a screen. I enjoy the internet community, but sometimes you just need someone to talk to.
