Home alone...


After our busy weekend, I have been deserted! Kirby went back to Uni yesterday, Gus is away in Hamilton at SheepVention and Brianna is staying with her friend Maddy until Wednesday.

I am home alone! This means that I have the house to myself! I can eat when I want! I can do what I want! I can streak down my passage way naked if I want! But I won't! I can do nothing if I want and I think I will! I stayed in bed half an hour longer this morning because I didn't have to get school lunch ready, iron a shirt, go to the bakery for fresh bread, pick up after anyone, tidy the 2nd bathroom, vacuum crumbs. I am loving my 2 day vacation! But I miss them all!

Last night I had a home-prepared Shepherds pie for dinner (I made Kirby some to take back frozen to Adelaide) and then I made Banana Bread from a recipe I found at Honey & Jam. Hannah is a young girl who has a wonderful blog - she loves baking and photography. I just had a look at her recipe list of other 'breads' and I'll be trying several of them soon!

I'm off to work later this morning then when I get home this afternoon, I'm going to make a big frypan full of Chow Mein (my favourite for when I'm alone as no-one else likes cabbage).

Do you talk to yourself when you're alone? Me and myself were just wonderin'!

  5. Brrrrrrrr!!! Bit too cold here to contemplate streaking!
    It sounds like you have it all planned in style to relax and enjoy those rare moments of aloneness....

  6. Would that I only talked to myself when I was alone. Unfortunately others catch me frequently. :)

  7. I enjoy being home alone sometimes, because it is just so nice to be able to do whatever you want whenever you want (no time constraints). I also talk to myself, the cat and the birds (and sometimes the appliances - the beeping washing machine)

  8. Hi Joolz.. I don't know if you'll remember me but i was the very first person to comment on your blog.

    I've only just recently got back into my blog again after being absent for nearly 2 years. I have been catching up with your blog and thought I'd pop in to say hello. :-)

    I love having some time alone occasionally and yes I have been know to talk to myself as well as the dog, cats and chickens.

    Hope you enjoyed your alone time.

  9. OH my GOSH Joolz! I am so hungry right now! Those yummy bisq. look heavenly. How funny, yes I find myself talking to myself all the time when Bob is not home, like for the past 3 days and staying up until 2 last night sewing an apron for a friend! Getting up at 7 to go to work! what was I thinking, as I am talking to myself this morning and totally brain dead! LOL
