Work meeting = Conversation either on video conference or telephone with one or more people about various work related initiatives. This week my scheduled work meetings total 23.5 hours; last week: 28 hours. Some things get cancelled. Some meetings are unplanned and happen on the fly, so that amount of time always shifts.
So to answer those questions...Yes, I work from home. What I do all day is...work. Sometimes I can throw in a load of laundry, but generally, no, I do not have time for that. No, my kids do not stay home with me. If they did, I couldn't actually work.
So there you have it. Thanks for checking out my blog. Signing off to check one.more.email. Just one more ;)
