Celebrating Household Managers  Society has grown so advanced that we look down on those of us who choose to be Household Managers . Somehow the position is seen as a slothful one, fit for incompetent and under-skilled people.  Society then contradicts itself by acknowledging the growing strain on the medical, policing and financial support systems. Worried politicians view our ever-growing need to import food in the event of major catastrophes. Society will 'tsk-tsk' at the children who have been raised by non-family members, and their exposure to electronic devices. We have the audacity to be bewildered at the drop out rate in our cold and sterile public schools. We 'tsk-tsk' again at the poorly behaved pets, deprived of proper training and attention. Stress piles up whenever we have guests coming - is the house clean enough? When itemized like this, there seems to be little to wonder at that our society is as distressed as it is! It is also understandable why so many...

Tips And Strategies For Staying Focused While Working From Home  * By Royce Bunting, who has worked administratively in business for more than 30 years. He invites our blog visitors to drop by his site: http://www.homebasedofficesupplies.com So - here's a good example of a distraction.

This just annoyed him and he left saying under his breath that I should not be working in the kitchen. He is right of course and this takes me to the next topic o...
