What are some of the things that you don't like to do when you are alone?

Really the only thing that I don't like to do is cook on the stove or in the oven. I also have a waffle iron that I won't use. I've had several seizures using these filling up the kitchen with smoke, surprisingly never actually starting a fire.
 
doing nothing like on the couch, floor etc. Makes me feel like I'm wasting time.

I now live alone, so what are my choices? Maybe sleeping alone is what I don't like now. ;)

My husband and I sleep in separate beds because he snores and I'm a bed hog, neither of us could sleep at night. Now we sleep in different rooms, I sleep with the cats. One snores and they are both bed hogs. I don't know which is worse, the cats or my husband?

As long as you don't snore and you don't mind a bed hog I'll come sleep with you (in a non naughty way) in over half your bed :hugs:
 
Does your husband have seizures too?

No, only me. You're more than welcome to sleep with him, he probably misses me in the bed. But I'm assuming that since your name is George that you are a guy so neither one of you would probably want to sleep with each other! :ponder:
 
I've been lucky because I have never, so far, hurt myself but I have a fear of having a seizure in the shower. I've already spoken to my neighbor and told her if she hears banging on the wall, she might want to check on me. Otherwise, I pretty much do everything.

I don't like cooking on the stove top when I'm alone.

I had a seizure years ago and was cooking chicken and tried pulling myself up.
grabbed hold of the pan with the chix and my husband came home with me i on the ground in the kitchen with hot chix grease all over me.



I won't take a shower when I'm alone either.

I've busted my head open couple of times and broke my nose when someone has been there.:soap::agree:
 
I live on my own, and have had seizures in the kitchen/bathroom before that have left some nice scars.

But there's nothing I won't do, or don't like to do.

The only thing I don't like to do when I'm alone is be alone..
