I battle the lonliness to....my house seems HUGE and it echoes when my family isn't here. I hate that feeling.
On a side note, My D and I LOVE Halloween. We set up a fun little haunt in the yard, and we are trying to add something to it every year. I have a major penchant for building things. This year was a PVC framed zombie with a smoke machine plumbed into his mouth.
