Working from home - a good thing

I am working from home today.  It is a nice perk that we get at my company.  Lots of people work from home periodically and we have some employees who don't actually have an office at all.  They work from home full time.  This is, of course, what I aspire to do.  Hopefully in the next 18 to 24 months David and I will pack up the cats and the rest of our stuff and move to Vermont.  My job is portable - I don't need to be in the office to do 90% of my job.  As long as I have a fast-speed Internet connection and a phone I can perform most of my duties.  For the rest, as long as I am near a decent airport (thank you JetBlue for flying out of Burlington airport) I can get to where I need to be.

So today I am working at home with a cat sleeping peacefully behind my laptop and another one somewhere on the floor.  The kids are home - Sarah is throwing things into the crockpot to make BBQ beef sandwiches for dinner (note to self: buy rolls!!) and Aaron is scrubbing the downstairs bathroom.

I like this.  A lot.
