I'm going to  work from home.  It's my chance to actually get something done.

  I wouldn't be good at that, I'd spend all day    :spitscreen:

The problem with the office is that you are constantly being interrupted. It's very difficult for me to get a full day's worth of actual coding.

Take the oldest to his friend's house in the AM and then his psych appt in the PM. Somewhere in the middle i need to finish cleaning my kitchen and catch up on laundry.

Watch a couple of hundred people vote.

I was a wee bit off in my estimate.  We had 704 voters.
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

I know what you mean.  I always was distracted and a fairly slow auditor.  Then I decided to make a 2 columned sheet, breaking the time down in 6 minute increments from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.  The idea came from a lawyer friend who had to have 50 hours of chargeable time a week.  If you could get 2 questions answered/dealt with in the 6 minutes, that was .2 of an hour charged, the minimum.

I was truly amazed at the amount of interruptions, personal lost time, and the actual amount of time it took me to do things during the day.  I would simply track it by brief notes:  phone - Booker, A/P might read one entry.  If something went on for more than 6 minutes I simply drew an arrow down until I had a different activity.  I became more focused and wasn't so hard on myself afterwards.

The same applies to cleaning the house with the children home, versus the children not home. Amazing how much one can get done when the kids are gone :laugh:

I have no idea since everything I have thought I'd be doing this week, turned out not happening. :laugh: The week has been turned on its head. Craziness. It's most likely a safe bet that dishes and laundry will be in there somewhere though.

  I hope the foot is OK, is there a suspected fracture?  :-\

Very safe bet.

That was about how my week was last week.

This week it is a lot more organised. I trust I will be working tomorrow.
