My Beloved is out for a couple of hours this afternoon leaving me on my own. I know that sounds horrible, but let me explain.
Beloved is disabled and has issues walking so she rarely goes out, I go out and do the shopping, or we go mad and have it delivered. She might toddle into the back garden on nice days but that's about it. So most days she's in the house 24/7.
Once a week she will go out to a local knitting group, otherwise known as The Coven, for a couple of hours.
It took me a while to persuade her to go in the first place, but I'm really happy to see her going out and enjoying herself. I just wish she could find other places to go.
