Oh, really, just yourself is fine, honestly!

And the garden's great—I mean, you can see how it's doing, yourself, if you like. It's a labor of love.

I don't know how much of a gift that is but... thank you.

How much time has it been now? Since you started living here?

Oh, goodness, well—

...how long has it been? It's easy to lose track, but it's been a few years. Still a lot to work on.

Don't you think you're being a bit hard on yourself?

I think it's impressive, everything you've managed. You're finally able to live the kind of life you wanted, right?

Well, honestly, that's the fun part for me, so it's not really being hard on myself...

...it's a project. Something to look forward to, every day. So I guess that really is.

I see. I suppose that would be exciting in it's own way.

I take it you're living here by yourself.

Mm, but I keep myself busy.
