clean and tidy

If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be glad to do the cleaning, tidying and washing to get a few minutes respite, I would have laughed in their faces. It's now more than eight weeks since I was alone and although I love my family, it's all a bit much. I just crave an hour of my own without company or responsibility. Mind you, I'd probably spend it trying to clear up the mess and sort the garden out.
