I live alone, well, I do have a furmily but there aren't any 2leggers around, nope no winged 2leggers in here either, they're all flying around outside quite free.
It's been over 38 years since I last had a room mate. Turns out I'm not much for domestic tasks which didn't go over well with the roomies and the boyfriend got abusive so I booked. 
Now I find that every morning when I get up I spend at least an hour whispering so I do not wake anyone. 
I even get as far as the kitchen to make coffee still whispering to Ally. 
Finally after the first couple sips of jo I realize I really do not have to whisper. My furmily doesn't mind when I talk so what's up with the whispering, right?
Even after 36 years that habit persists, does anyone else do this when they are alone?

I am so rarely alone in the mornings so I always whisper.

@rebelann Just a natural thing about mornings I suppose.

So true @fishtiger58 but I'm doing my best to undo that silly habit.

I whisper to Keith if he is up so that I don't wake the kids. I also tiptoe very quietly and try not to make any noises when I am opening cabinets, making coffee, etc. Of course, I live with 3 kids and a grown man. I have never paid any attention to how much noise I make when I am alone. I will have to monitor this and get back with you on it.

@rebelann Yeppers I am. The kids are like zombies.... they hear the least little sounds and if I want a bit of peace and quiet I keep quiet!

I often talk to myself as trying out the sound and inflection of words for poems and speaking events - many people must think i'm even more nuts than usual

Well in that case perhaps a smaller pet that can travel with you when you're out and about @arthurchappell perhaps a rat, a friend of mine had one and told me they are easy to train, he kept it in his jacket pocket or tshirt pocket, I thought it was fascinating.
