I prefer the taste of Ozarka or Aquafina bottled water over most other brands I have tried. At least the low-end brands. If you work from home, obviously you have to bring work home. But you can confine it to certain hours and/or certain areas of your home. It's a psychological thing too. Did you read the story quoted in the article above? @Barb – Haha, I think it’s probably at the top because it is one of the most effective ways to combat stress.

I used to lay awake planning and planning. I sleep now. I think that kind of peace comes with experience. I was accused yesterday of telling other teachers what they had to teach but just having fun in my own class. That is just the difference that experience can make. My kids think some of the things I get really excited about are fun. I agree. I used to lay awake planning and planning. I sleep now. I think that kind of peace comes with experience.
