Well, for a few days anyway as Sam has taken the kids to Norfolk for a few days (and is coming back again at the weekend, leaving them there with his mum for a week πŸ™Œ) 

I am loving the silence that comes with just being alone in the house...no thundering feet up and down the hall, no random questions an hour after bedtime, no endless requests for food, no arguments over who said/did what. Just me and the cats (and a list of DIY jobs as long as my arm, and my actual job of course!)
