One can easily get anxious if there daily routine is hampered or if they feel helpless about something.

Some natural anxiety remedies to look into are St.John's Wort, SAMe, L-Theanine, and Tryptophan. There's also cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and programs like Panic Away and The Linden Method, to name a few. Hope this helps!

I agree with what you wrote. Sometimes life hits us with a little but of reality and everything seems to fall out of synch. Probably best thing to do is roll with the punches. Aint pretty but maybe it works...

What I like about my business is i work when i feel like it. An hour or two in the morning and an hour or two in the evening. Saturday or Sunday is sauna day and I let nobody or nothing stand in the way.

I enjoyed reading your delimas. How do spell dilemas anyway? Good luck

I remember reading about this a few years ago in a book called "The Social Life of Information" by John Seely Brown. (For an adequate review, see http://www.complete-review.... ) One of the main points I walked away with is the extra burden you take on when you tele-commute - no IT support down the hall, no extra printer paper in the supply room, no one to vacuum your carpet or empty your work trash at the end of the day. When you opt for control, you also opt for all the overhead yourself.

I'm not trying to say the tradeoff isn't worth it, but I think few know that this is part of the implicit cost of working at home or anywhere other than a business office location.

Know that you are never alone in feeling unfocused at work, especially on Fridays. I recommend Guitar Hero breaks.

Unless you become a stage mom or just sell your baby. Short of that, you have a point there.

There could be a happy ending, you never know . . .

Yes, one hopes the experience of starting a business could go as smoothly as a sitcom - with a problem, rising action, climax, and resolution. If only Donald Trump discovers our blog, then we could easily transition this to a new reality show.

Sounds similar to having a kid. You know, without the possibility of making any money in the future.

Is this the beginnings of a script for your new sitcom? Could be very funny to watch someone else go through the pain and anguish - and hopefully reap the rewards of labor over the long haul. Maybe that's what the blogging world is letting us all do - write our personal sitcoms for others to muse over.
