  1. Thirteen Reasons I Will Always Work From Home

  1. I don’t have to wear shoes
  2. I can listen to the Dropkick Murphys as loud as I want
  3. “Coffee breaks” happen in my own kitchen, not some corporate canteen
  4. Wireless networking means I can sit outside in the hammock all day
  5. The house stays cleaner, since now sweeping and mopping have become “thinking time”
  6. I can cook and bake while I work
  7. There is no such thing as “work/life balance” for me
  8. My detached garage is suddenly a business write-off
  9. I get to tell everyone I’m a “freelancer” and/or “consultant”
  10. Living in a “Castle Doctrine” state, now if someone barges into my workspace unannounced, I can legally kill them
  11. Only one car payment and insurance bill
  12. It makes me less stressed, which makes me a nicer person, which gets me laid a whole lot more
  13. It makes people jealous

That’s a pretty well thought out list! I need to do more “thinking time” around here, thanks for the inspiration!

My list is up!

I’ve always wanted to work from home, and there are 13 more reasons right there why I should, LOL!

Thanks so much for the link you gave me about Autoimmune Hepatits - it’s really helping me to understand what is going on!
