homeplaceofthefuture = vacation destination

When you work from home full-time and take a staycation, you have to be intentional about the places in your home you go and breaking up your routine. Instead of crying in your home office at 8 AM everyday take some time with your spouse/dog/kids/partner/whatever on the porch enjoying coffee. I found myself having little to no desire to do anything on my PC and that includes posting my comments about the homeplaceofthefuture and social media. It was a wonderful break until that feared re-entry of email barrage on Sunday night!

Turns out being intentional for a few minutes everyday really does make the homeplaceofthefuture a wonderful vacation destination. Quick snippets of things we chose to do over the past 2 weeks.

  • We had a catered summer party with friends
  • Some good friends of ours came into town for 5 days and we did all the touristy things in __________ (insert your town here) that locals never do!
  • Resurfaced our back porch in an effort to use it more often
  • Yardwork! Lots of yardwork
  • Took the kids to a waterpark where I felt thin....very thin!
  • Went out to dinner every night to leave the house
  • Left my phone on airplane mode for a good part of a few busier days as Q2 ended
  • Unpacked a few boxes from our move here (4 years later, right on schedule!)

Past 2 weeks or so I started to see the homeplaceofthefuture in a new light and for the moment I see a fine line between work & home. Ideally my home office would be cut off during non-working hours, but it's not realistic with a smaller house and limited rooms. Setting up some things to do to keep me out of this room was a great plan.
