Everyone starts somewhere, check out my other site <a href="http://itarsenal.com" rel="nofollow">http://itarsenal.com</a> if you'd like some help and have me on board for that. Thanks for the office space sharing....using someone elses space (in this case your dads) was something I didn't think about...but why not. A spare office, a spare bedroom...a new environment gives your mind an air of possibilities which ends up going into your work. Thanks for the feedback! Chad, the blogs fine!

The balance part was key...finding that amongst remote desktop and sitting in a good working environment....I spent a good 2 hours a panera bread doing work yesterday and it really helped...the home office was %100 less distracting after a good break.

While at home in Arizona, I do work at home, yet as you said this becomes stressful very quickly. To deal with this I will make trips to my dad's company office where there is always an empty desk somewhere for me to use. Thanks for the post!<br>P.S. My website is still in development, hence the lameness :) I am just starting out blogging and pursuing the whole lifestyle design thing, but being a student I have great places to work at, Library, Student Union Building, Cafeteria, Dorm Lounge, Dorm Lobby, Coffee Shop, and being in L.A. there is no limit to the number of interesting places you can sit down to do work in.

I have the same one. I was (am?) going to make a video about my work setup but thought to wait until after the move. Cool stuff.

I work from my room too, but had to move half my desk out due to no space in my bedroom. If I kick out one of the roommates I'll be moving all that into there. Cool idea for a video.
