This is kind of an indulgent post, all about me. It’s my birthday weekend, so I think I’m totally allowed. It is my blog after all, right?
This is a little list of all the silly and awesome things that I like to do when I’m home alone. I get the opportunity a lot usually in the fall, which is Chuck’s big hunting season. He often goes on weekend trips that time of year. While being home alone can get lonely, sometimes it’s the little things that make can make it a really awesome time.
So here are the things I like to do:
1. Sing at the top of my lungs – I think everyone probably does this.
2. Eat mac & cheese right out of the pot I made it in – I totally agree that this is completely lazy, but I also like to tell myself that its better for the environment, because I’m not using multiple dishes. Right?
3. Listen to Podcasts and get crafty – I don’t know why but Chuck is a huge distraction, but my alone time is the time that I am able to focus and get really into my creative side.
4. Go to bed early and read until it’s way too late because there’s no one there to remind me I have to get up in the morning – Not that Chuck would do that anyway, but this just seems to be a habit of mine when I’m home alone.
5. Let Brody sleep on the bed with me all night long – We don’t usually do this because he likes to take the whole bed, but when it’s just me there’s plenty of room.
6. Watch terrible TV that Chuck won’t normally let me watch – Mostly HGTV, reality tv or NCIS. Not that NCIS is really bad, but I binge watch it to the point where Chuck get’s annoyed.
7. Clean – I have no idea why but sometimes I feel like since I’m home and chuck is stuck in a hotel for work I should really be cleaning the whole house. Sometimes it actually happens, sometimes it doesn’t.
8. Have snacks for dinner – There is nothing wrong with pickles, a few slices of cheese, a couple carrots, and some random leftovers for dinner.
9. Work out in the living room. – No one is home to interrupt, so why not.
10. Lock every single door and window in the house – All that NCIS get’s into my head and I freak myself out sometimes.
Aw, this was an exceptionally good post. Finding the time and actual effort to generate a top notch article… but what can I say… I hesitate a lot and don’t manage to get anything done.
Love your site. I’ll be back to read more of your articles. Awesome stuff!
