A thing I have learned about working from home

[owlmoose]

I can stay pretty focused up through my lunch break, regardless of when I decide to take it.

It gets much, much harder after I come back, no matter what time it is or how long the break lasted.

Working from home is a learning process for sure. (I'm discovering how much of my day I spent not-working with my coworkers.)

[owlmoose]

Yes, for sure. We have planned social gathering time every afternoon, but it's not the same.

One thing I am finding is that it's forcing me to get better at my actual skills since I can't ask my coworker. (I mean, I could call him, but I'm not gonna pick up a phone for that, lol.)

That's me exactly. Once it hits 2 pm I'm just DEAD. My second wind just isn't there. I'm trying to figure out ways around it, but I'm stuck.

I'm wondering if I"ll do better to start earlier in the day. The downside is that means 1. getting up earlier and 2. making breakfast earlier, which I'm reluctant to do because it wakes T up. (He's not working at all these days so he has no need to be up.) Still, might be worth trying.
