Are You Cut Out For Working From Home?

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

For many people, working from home is a dream. Others, though, don’t really enjoy working from home. I see this difference in style every day. I enjoy working from home, and am glad that I have a career that allows me to do that. My husband, on the other hand, doesn’t enjoy working from home nearly as much. He’d rather go in to work than stay at home and work.

Non-Financial Investments For Your Future

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

Last weekend, I woke up with a kink in my neck so bad that I couldn’t move my head at all to the right. It was sending shooting pains down my arm and shoulder. I was pretty much debilitated all day, and couldn’t even sit down and stand up comfortably. I wracked my brain with how I ended up with the kink in my neck and then remembered a conference call during which I had my phone at work resting on my shoulder, instead of using a headset.
