I operate much better as a twosome....I like having someone to look after and to have someone I can say... "hey can you please pass me the ..."to. I would be very very sad if I was on my own 24/7 and I think I would be one of those old ladies who ring up "companies and book demonstrations" just so I could have company.<br />Sounds sad now I say it... but I do think that would be me in say 30 years if I am alone. It would however make me about 85...but I think I could then be forgiven.<br /><br />Jo in Auckland, NZJOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01654932887735045108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-87879539070207212702017-09-08T07:14:22.227+00:002017-09-08T07:14:22.227+00:00I never have the radio on, and only watch what I r...I never have the radio on, and only watch what I really want to watch on TV- at night.

As for not sharing a toilet, that would be for the Kenneth Williams's of this world, of whom I'm not one - though I do stress that I wouldn't share a toilet with anyone at the same time as they are using it. :-) Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-71714794906312051982017-09-07T08:33:31.433+00:002017-09-07T08:33:31.433+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-45512551417134672402017-09-07T08:27:48.193+00:002017-09-07T08:27:48.193+00:00I misstead your comment and thought you were talki...I misstead your comment and thought you were talking about sharing a toilet...mr udall couldnt share anything!

When my youngest left home for university I nearly lost my mind, despite working both a full-time and a part-time job and having two dogs and two cats for company. I was terribly lonely and so afraid that after work I rarely left home if it meant coming home after dark. For me, freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.

REALLY alone is when you have neither of these options but neither is being REALLY alone a bad thing or a barometer of how popular you are/are not. For some it can also be a lifestyle choice.Between Me and Youhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04863155145862706966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-43041780796548014022017-09-06T21:13:31.715+00:002017-09-06T21:13:31.715+00:00He's rather sweetHe's rather sweetJohn Going Gentlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14958171262765033946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-85179191303410179932017-09-06T21:12:54.425+00:002017-09-06T21:12:54.425+00:00How utterly adult of you both!How utterly adult of you both!John Going Gentlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14958171262765033946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-44557576531426565322017-09-06T21:06:59.743+00:002017-09-06T21:06:59.743+00:00I love having alone time.
