I'm alone! And it's really rather weird and rather nice.
OH and I recently bought a holiday home in Poole which we have called our 'bolt hole'.
We are full time carers for 3 adults with a learning disability and mental health issues that live in our home with is as part of our family (shared lives carers) we have been doing this for 5 years now and although it is extremely rewarding we are both rather frazzled.
So now we can take it in turns for odd nights while the other cares for our 'guys' to come and get some peace and seclusion.
OH has been several times but I have dug my heels in using the excuse that my horses give me a break of 'me time' every day, but now I am ensconced in our wee little holiday hit and it's lovely.
It's the first time in about 30 years that I don't have anyone to look after , not even a dog or a horse, let alone another human.
I can please myself and I am.
Wine, music, food, walk to beach -heaven
pointless thread but got to share it with someone
