My aunt and uncle took it to an extreme--their home office didn't connect with the rest of the house so they had to go outside and then re-enter through the workspace, and they didn't go home again until the end of the day.

My father gave me wise words once, after watching me drag work (hubby and I run a small business) from home to office and back, all the while thinking it was saving me time: PARK IT, he said. He advised me to keep work in one place. And you know what? He was absolutely right about that. It helps keep my home space feeling free.Irene Lathamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905936104127707762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5488191966351130111.post-71497456450058996632011-06-13T13:13:36.541-05:002011-06-13T13:13:36.541-05:00I'd love you to guest blog about that, Holly!I'd love you to guest blog about that, Holly!Tracy Barretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17668453323039794253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5488191966351130111.post-36139713213742574662011-06-13T08:34:45.081-05:002011-06-13T08:34:45.081-05:00CONGRATS on becoming a full-time author, Tracy!
