Yours Truly, in the front yard.
Good morning, stay-at-homers! A number of friends from my old home town, Toronto, have been asking how we’re doing down here in Tampa, and what our days are like. I thought I’d post a couple of reports with photos, starting with this one.
Other seasoned remote workers may say that they work just fine in their pajamas, but I prefer to dress up as if I was still living in the “before times”. Luckily for me, I work in tech, so wearing an aloha shirt, jeans, and deck shoes, isn’t just dressed for work — some techies might assume I was dressing for a job interview.
We do have an indoor room designated as the home office. Anitra uses it during the day, and I use it in the evening to work on non-day-job projects. During the day, my work for the day job — building Lilypad’s mobile app — happens on the office that I’ve set up on our screened-in front porch. I get lots of light, enjoy the cognitive benefits of being around our yard’s greenery, and even get to say “hi” to the neighbours from a safe distance as they go about getting their exercise or walking their dogs.
