I've found, Cheryl, that when you physically go out to work, it's absolutely fantastic to have a day working from home because you get so much more done.
Unfortunately I've worked for this company now for three years (since being made redundant after over 8 years with a previous company) and working from home permanently isn't good. I can at least keep in touch more with my mum by phone, but I've also had to visit our other depots many, many times this year and have been working away more than I've been worwking at home!
All the best
