Today is an official state telework day and so I took the Governor up on his offer and have been working from home today. It’s funny how productive I can be when I work from home. I’m sure I would have been able to be productive at work today but I don’t know that I would have finished a massive task I’d set out for myself if I’d been at work. There are way too many sit around and BS periods at my office. We call it consensus building or mini-unit meetings, but really it’s BS.
I’m not sure how I’d feel about working from home every day but sometimes it’s the best for cranking out tasks. I know on days where I don’t have enough to do and sometimes that problem stretches for weeks at a time, I’d be hard pressed to ignore that I’d like to vacuum or wash the kitty blanket on the guest bed. Or write something on the blog (wink).
Yesterday was oddly productive as well as we made tomato sauce and salsa, canning both. We also froze a gazillion squash and zucchini and made three servings of pesto that went right into the freezer. All of that was completed before 2:30. The rest of the afternoon was spent enjoying a cheese, salami and cracker lunch, naps and reading. Dinner was stuffed zucchini and was followed with more reading. A lovely day, indeed.
