My husband and I began working from home and have one rule between us: “Respect Boundaries.”

He works upstairs in the office and I am in the kitchen nook. No need to read into that….I have many windows around me and yes, the fridge!

It’s 10:03am and I have only called him at work once, so far. Technology can be a wonderful tool.
