Working 9 to 5

I love that song Dolly Parton loves to belt. 9 to 5. Makes me wonder what it would be like to have a desk job…

Although I work and blog from home, I’m beginning to believe working from nine to five might increase creativity, productivity and free time to live and “hobitize.” It would take an overall increase of willpower to turn this darn computer off at five, but it might be worth the effort.

What are your thoughts and opinions? Let’s weigh the pros and cons.

Nope. I'm home for at least a month because of health reasons. I've been dealing with heart problems and such for a few months. I was only out for a year. As of now one of blood tests has come back positive for Lyme's disease. We're working on figuring out what's wrong! :)

I thought the same thing! I thought MAN those two years went by quick. Then I realized it was a typo on your “going away” post… should have said leaving in January 2010! Hope you get better…

I’ve worked a nine to five. And let me tell you its no picnic. Day in and Day out the same boring job and dealing with the same people. That’s why that show ‘The Office’ gets such high ratings. Viewers are just having a good laugh at the mediocrity that’s there job.

I’m a naturally nocturnal person that works well from 5 to 1am. The perfect blogger hours for me. Unfortunately, it doesn’t help when you’re a mom of two lol.

My Mom has forever said she is the mother of six boys. She has five children and one husband…lol

I’m certainly one of those night owls too. It’s something I’ve been trying to avoid and fix, but it’s difficult. My body just tends to do well very late. For my own life, I think it would be more productive to go to bed earlier – and wake up earlier. It seems it would work better for my family on a whole.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Chaudie!
