I have been working from home for two days and I like it.
Not having to drive to work, saving on gas, and miles on my old truck, it is all good.

Wish I could have done this last year.

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

4. It is great.
I tried all last year for this, knew it would work.

Now I can save the gas money, I really need to save up for a new truck.:pals:

2. Working from home is great, huh?
I'm still getting into the swing of it myself since starting in the end of November.

3. So far.
I hope everything works out for you.

I am getting my work done faster, no longer having co-workers coming in and thinking that my office was a break room.

6. It's been good, but at times rough.
There is so much paperwork that must constantly be mailed in (official documents) that I find myself standing in line at the post office almost three times a week! And, I have to drive to client's homes. In the beginning, when I'm introducing the programs to the families, it's nothing but driving. Once I enroll people and they become part of our system, then it's just once a month. So, I do some light travel about 4-6 days a month. And everything else is just the constant emails about really nothing, but as everyone works from home, you have to acknowledge every email, even if it is just "received" in the memo line.

5. Isn't it awesome?
Nothing spells happy to fudge like curling up with my laptop on the couch with a big ole dog next to me keeping me company.

And a midday break for a relaxing Bailey's on the Rocks! :D

7. For me, the downside to working at home is the refrigerator....
I should move it about a mile away so I get some exercise.
