As my hubby and I are retired we are always in the house together, so the opportunity of having two weeks alone is utter bliss. The things I can get up to!!
A Heavenly Two Weeks Alone!!!

Author’s own photo
For two whole blissful weeks
I’ve got the house to myself.
My hubby has gone dog sitting
And left me on the shelf.

I know that I should miss him
But time alone is just so rare.
I’ve got a hundred things to do
Which can’t be done when he is there.

I can go out to the shops
As my clothes I need all new.
Since I’ve lost a lot of weight
That is the first thing I must do.

Then I need some kitchen gadgets
So that cooking is a treat,
Not the chore I always find it
Which has nearly got me beat.

Then I can give the house a clean through
As he won’t be watching me,
Which he’s very prone to doing
While lying out on the settee.
I can clean out all the cupboards
And throw lots of junk away.
I might even clear his wardrobe
Of old clothes he wants to stay.

I can have my friends to visit
And go out with them to dine.
I can catch up on their news
Over a glass or two of wine.

I won’t have to rush home early
Or explain where I have been.
It’s so great to make decisions
And not worry about what they mean.
*****
And when two weeks have passed by
And I’ve done all that I can do,
I can settle down with Hubby
For another year or two.
I’ll keep him fit and healthy
No matter what the weather,
And try to find fun things to play
Which we can do together.
