Yes, I'm singlehanding. Wouldn't mind some company, but the one I thought might be, didn't work out. Aside from that, I'm picky, and used to being alone and not having to adjust to another person. If I go across the Gulf this spring though, I will pick up one or two crew for the trip.

I got back into sailing 5 years ago singlehanding, and have been doing it since, so for most things, I've developed routines. Unfortunately, they are mostly daysailing ones and didn't work as well in cruising mode when things got dicey. I did though find myself making adjustments as I went along. The biggest help would be with food. Sometimes you're just too tired to feel like fixing anything after a long day. And, that's not good.
