Take long lunches and get something done around the house. You're working at home. Might as well make it worth while. Do the dishes. Do the laundry. Wash your car. It doesn't have to be about work 100% of the time. If/when you do this, block some time off in your calendar for it so nobody is trying to contact you during this time.

I see the value in this, but I personally have not had success with it. I have found I am most effective remote if during my working hours, I don't do anything I wouldn't do if I was working at the office. For me, that means no laundry during the day, no extended lunches, etc. It keeps my mind in "work mode" and at the end of the day, I shut my office door and transition my brain out of work-mode.

convenient for you, less so for the partner, eh?
