It's demoralising being alone all the time. Especially in the winter when it's dark and cold. I leave a light on here and there, leave the TV running while I'm doing something else or go out shopping. It creates a lived-in ambience, as though there are other people around.
Coming back to a dark, silent home with black windows in the dark is gloomy.
Another good thing you can do is set a tasty stew going in the morning - there's a homely and appetising smell when you come back and it's ready to eat.
