It's not unusual for me to come home from work and be on my own. (My daughter lives in her bedroom...well she's 13, what do I expect?)I don't complain, in fact it's nice to not have to watch Sky Sports news all of the time. Sometimes though, you just wish that you had some company.
I was so pleased today when I found out my husband was taking a half shift. More good news was that my son and his girlfriend were having a night in our house for a chage. With the possibility of my daughter leaving the darkest depths of her bedroom for a short while I was quite beside myself with the thought of having loads of company.
The reality?
My daughter is in her bedroom.
My husband is in the conservatory reading one of those books that you can't put down.
My son and his girlfriend are snuggling on the sofa in the living room watching a dvd.
Me?
I'm in the back room on my own....
It's great having company! *rolls eyes*
