If you are the one who created the singleton and who uses it, dont make it as singleton (it doesn't have sense because you can control the singularity of the object without making it singleton) but it makes sense when you a developer of a library and you want to supply only one object to your users (in this case you are the who created the singleton, but you aren't the user).

Singletons are objects so use them as objects, many people accesses to singletons directly through calling the method which returns it, but this is harmful because you are making your code knows that object is singleton, I prefer to use singletons as objects, I pass them through the constructor and I use them as ordinary objects, by that way, your code doesn't know if these objects are singletons or not and that makes the dependencies more clear and it helps a little for refactoring ...
