I’ve been working entirely from home for about three years now. I was thrilled when I was able to arrange my workload so that everything could be handled online.

A chilled relaxed Sunday afternoon made better by the cooling system
Sundays are for taking it easy, just as the song goes, as easy as Sunday morning. I love me some Sundays. My Sundays are usually almost the same. I usually host a brunch for my family, then clean up the house and get everything ready for the week. I like relaxing with a book at […]
Broke the wireless thermostat trying to fix the heat
Help! I broke the climate control device! This was the text I had received from my mother early last Monday. I was headed to work and I had to make a U-turn to mum’s house once I reached the office. Since it was just a broken wireless thermostat, I did not need to have the […]
