Amen sister!

I can't agree with the things you've mentioned here more heartily.

When I left the corporate world and started working from home myself, I found issues with everything you've written about, and thankfully, worked some of them out in the same manner.

One of the biggest problems I'm still fighting though is surfing the internet when I need to be working. I don't have a TV in the house, which really helps with not getting distracted there, but that in turn makes me use the internet. I feel like if I was in an office surrounded by people all day I might not use the internet as much (for fear of getting reprimanded) but at home, there's no one to yell at me but myself.

Great post. I already knew I wasn't the only one struggling with issues of working at home, but it always helps to hear somebody else talk about it. Thanks!
