lonely times at night

Because I have never actually lived “on my own” in my life, I’m finding it very hard to sleep comfortably at night. I’ve slept in my own bed, alone for most of my life, and that is not the problem. The problem is while Hubby is looking for a job, he’s commuting during the week so I don’t have any one at home to protect me. Only the General, who would probably just lick the legs of an intruder until they petted him, and then go straight back to bed.
