My dog usually is. He is always hopping in my lap, wanting to go out, wanting to be fed or played with. Even with school starting there isn't a moment when I am not doing something for him. When he sees me sit my laptop he whines and tries to knock it off my lap so he can sit with me.

Now that the kids are in school it's the dogs as well! Right now I have a fuzzy footwarmer... until they hear something and dash to the door!

Yeah mine is sitting with his head in my lap wondering when we are going to go out and play. Every time I type on the keyboard he puts his paws on it and gets in the way.

If someone sends me more than one of those I send them a thanks but no thanks email, asking them not to send me anymore of those. If they send it again I put them on my junk filter so I don't receive any more of those.

Always the kids, but when I'm actually alone, it's other clutter around me. I am trying to keep my desk space neat, but I get distracted seeing the other "to do's" I have laying around. I've been taking my work out to the library or elsewhere just to get away from distractions lately.

I know I wish there was a setting for that without taking all the other FWDs out of there too.

I do the same thing, I find a little change of scenery helps things seem not so monotonous and keeps me on track.

Well today my Avon lady would not take I am busy and to come back later .. she got snippy with me when I said I am swamped come back after 12. Finally I said fine, come now, I handed her the check and shut the door. If she could not respect my work, I will no longer deal with her! People just don't understand that just because I am home does not mean I am watching soaps and eating bonbons! That woman made a fatal busieness error!
