Jennifer,
Since I work from home, I can appreciate you article. The 800 pound gorilla in my room is all the things I use to ignore, because I thought I didn't have time to do when I had a day job. Now I can't give that excuse and those yellow beady eyes are staring at me - do the house work first. Ugh, another writing day lost.
My house is devoid of running children and all their demands (except occasionally when the grandson is here), but I have two dogs that are like having two year olds. Noise is not a problem, if you discount the novice drummer down the block, trying to see if solid plastic drum heads can be broken with a mutiple power strokes. My wife is a reader, so she is usually hard to find in the house, but when I do, she is curled up under a soft light.
My ultimate albatross is now I have time for all my hobbies. Writing is just one of them. I'm still amazed that in a few months, 70,000 words are in a Word file started on a casual morning, trying to avoid eye contact with the . . . you know the gorilla.
