I work from home as a freelance writer and I absolutely love it!

When I worked at jobs I found I was constantly interrupted by meetings, co-workers stopping by the desk/cubicle, etc. Sure it's nice to chat sometimes but the amount of productive time can be really low.

My biggest problem is I constantly work all the time and hardly ever take breaks. And yes, I definitely spend too much time bouncing in here and there on the internet. When I really need to get serious I do have to close all windows and just focus. I really do need to do that more. There are apps for it that I haven't tried. Also, setting work hours separate from personal hours does sound like a really good idea. I don't do that either.

I actually feel more secure because I don't have to worry about being laid off from one specific job. I'm lucky in that I haven't ever had a customer "stiff me." Also, if someone gets too difficult I just choose not to work with them anymore. I made a lot more money as an accountant and in sales and I do have to work long hours and constantly look for new work but I love it!

Oh and yes, mostly I am wearing shorts or pj pants, ha ha, it's great!
