Working at home... in PJ's!

Have you ever seen those commercials for the at-home college degree with the spokesperson in her pajamas? Sounds intriguing but I say, if you don't have to do it, get off the couch and go to a real school with a real classroom. I love working at home sometimes but other days, I would give anything to get dressed up and actually go to an office. I can certainly get the same things accomplished here, but it's just not the same. A good portion of our house has become the "office". Although, most offices don't have Disney channel playing in the background.  All of our staff has young children so on meeting days, it looks more like playgroup. Never a dull moment around here. But I know all too soon that my last baby will go off to school and I'll be here alone. Sounds nice right now but I think the days will grow quiet and I'll long for the chaos that ensues each afternoon. As the phone begins to ring and my fingers fly across the keyboard, I don't have time to think about how hard it is or how it's all going to get done. I just do it. And I wouldn't want to miss a moment of it! 
For all of the WAHMs (work at home moms) out there I'll try to share my days experiences and remind you that you aren't alone. For everyone else, maybe this blog will help you appreciate your quiet office space. Or maybe you'll decide to join the craziness and work at home too.
Thanks for reading!
