Piece of Me #11 At Home With The Hollis'

The perks of living at home!

When I first realised that I would be living at home- after getting a job in Lincolnshire —the idea certainly took some getting used to...

For starters I feared that it would ruin the great relationship I have with my parents, and after three years of doing it alone up in Newcastle, I wasn’t sure I could go back to the pesters of “where are you going?”and “when will you be back?”...

I just couldn’t decide whether having my bedroom cleaned and my dinner cooked would outweigh the potential strain that might develop between the three of us.

However — even though Lincolnshire isn’t the most buzzing place in the world — I can safely say that coming home to Roge and Barbs is not quite as daunting as I thought it would be, and I find myself appreciating their company, savouring the tastes of some delicious suppers, and not an electricity or heating bill in sight!

An open fire, a plentiful fridge, and most recently a beautiful advent calendar...

Maybe I don't have it so bad...
