[quote=Anonymous]Our bungalow is mostly open on the first floor, with the whole converted attic as the master bedroom. I usually work in our shared study when I telework, but once everything closed down I moved to the dining room, because DH is on calls most of the day.

But that quickly became unsustainable, too, so I'm now working from a folding table upstairs in the bedroom. Our daughter is older, mostly working and hanging out in her room, but any time someone else took a break for lunch or a little TV, I'd get distracted.

I did arrange early on to go into my office and borrow a monitor to use with my laptop, so that has helped a lot.

Also, I haven't taken advantage of this, but I know my organization was allowing people (with approval) to purchase things they'd need to work from home. So people could get approval to buy a monitor or desk chair for telework, but it would ultimately remain property of the company. Might be worth checking into for some of these PPs, if there are basic office things you need that you might be able to get approval for. [/quote]
