Today's question is about solitude….

Angela writes……

My husband is leaving for the army in two months, it is going to be hard to be an army wife. How would you suggest I deal with the loneliness of being by myself for long periods of time? We don't have children yet and I work very very very long hours but I would like to know how you would suggest I relearn how to be by myself? Thanks.

I am absolutely the wrong person to ask about this because as someone with three kids who works from home, I FANTASISE about being alone. Just for five minutes. Just in the bathroom. Come on people, share your advice and experiences to help Angela…..
