But my office is in the basement and once I get into a groove I lose all sense of time.<BR/><BR/>Presby - Don't tell anyone, but I have taken power naps on occasion!<BR/><BR/>Dive - Dude, my commute cannot even begin to compare to yours. I don't know how you do it.Shazzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02196666013653201878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34703527.post-28187903748025905172008-10-01T03:01:00.000-04:002008-10-01T03:01:00.000-04:00Sheesh!

Commuting …<BR/>I'm like you, Shazza, except that my morning routine is worked out to the second as I have to be up at 4:40AM and my journey to work takes three and a half hours door to door.<BR/>I get most of my blog writing done in little notebooks on the train and then type it up later.<BR/>After many years of seven hours a day commuting hell, they now allow me two days a week working from home, like you. And yes, I find I am much more productive. I wake up at my normal time but can listen to the news and take a bath instead of a shower. I can have breakfast (a real novelty) and start work at six, long before the email crap starts coming in when the office opens up. I can watch a movie at lunchtime, cook a proper meal and still have hours more time to myself. Working from home keeps me relatively sane.divehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12938980502783421961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34703527.post-84494182418157628822008-09-30T22:48:00.000-04:002008-09-30T22:48:00.000-04:00Yeah Presby!!

If I take more than 30 minutes though, I'm out of it for about an hour afterwards.Vic Hubbardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11384910972484732321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34703527.post-51158931191894632512008-09-30T21:48:00.000-04:002008-09-30T21:48:00.000-04:00I wish I could try it too.

I'd love to take a quick nap every afternoon, which is kind of hard in an office.Presbyfruit's History Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775751300665344362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34703527.post-29448278575700746632008-09-30T20:33:00.000-04:002008-09-30T20:33:00.000-04:00hmmm..I'm on a routine insomuch as I need to get o...hmmm..I'm on a routine insomuch as I need to get out of the house between 7 and 7:15, depending on which bus / train I intend to take and whether or not it is raining or snowing. <BR/><BR/>The rest is basically a crap shoot. Sure, there are must dos but one or the other doesn't have to be first, second or so on. <BR/><BR/>I've never worked from home but I have the sense that I'd be much more productive "at the office" as there are waaaaay too many distractions at home, probably. <BR/><BR/>It'd be cool to give it a try though. I wish I could.Middle Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12334580430376973159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34703527.post-12902678882947083482008-09-30T20:20:00.000-04:002008-09-30T20:20:00.000-04:00I'm the same way, Shazza. Just about everything I...I'm the same way, Shazza. Just about everything I have to do all the time is set up in a routine. If a small part of the routine is broken, the process now has to be thought about, which usually puts me behind and stresses me out!! Plus, the morning routine is on complete auto-pilot. If I screw that up, it can really flip my day.Vic Hubbardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11384910972484732321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34703527.post-85002549464589333382008-09-30T14:07:00.000-04:002008-09-30T14:07:00.000-04:00Is that synonymous with anal?Is that synonymous with anal?Shazzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02196666013653201878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34703527.post-25401730907710825972008-09-30T13:56:00.000-04:002008-09-30T13:56:00.000-04:00Are you a "J" on the Myers-Briggs?Are you a "J" on the Myers-Briggs?Kari Hultmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01224053263659415329noreply@blogger.com
