Working From Home, Keeping Your Sanity

The Lawrence Journal-World:

Stay-at-home workers have a simple way to stay sane while working at home: Don’t do all the work at home.

“I have to get out at some point during the day,” says Robin Ward, who’s been handling freelance design projects out of her western Lawrence residence since coming to town in 2000. “I feel like I do get a lot more done, here, working by myself. But I’m kind of a social person and probably would talk a lot if I were still in an office. So I have to get out.

“If it means just going to the post office, at least I get to stand in line forever and talk to people. That can be the highlight of my day.”
