 I’m strongly introvert, but there are limits to it.

While I’m separated from my husband for a few months (he’s held up working on a construction project on another continent), and while I’m working from home, I’ve gone kind of stir crazy.

Living alone back when I went to work each day with friends wasn’t a problem. Working from home when my husband is around isn’t a problem. But working from home while my husband is away is a monk-like existence that is even too introverted for me after a while.

Since we travel a lot we don’t even have a cat, so it’s like I’m trying out being a cat lady without even the cat.
