By Malin: Working from home has its drawbacks, mainly in the form of tiny distractors. But it is also so extremely gratifying when these little distractors take liking to my work. I am currently finishing up a manuscript that will be the final chapter to my PhD thesis and that might not sound extremely alluring to the young audience. But my youngest daughter is extremely fascinated by the mere existence of screens at the moment and I happen to have 2 of them. It feeds the soul to see the jaw dropping awe when she looks over at my work station. Now my oldest daughter can't be bought by just the existence of a computer any more but I have maybe the coolest screen saver of all times (a hovering Eristalis I made a wile back in the 3D animation software Blender) and she'll sometimes come over and ask to see the fly. Otherwise there is always one of my cats who seems to have taken a liking to my work station itself. |
I try to borrow their awe and fascination (and appreciation of my desk) when I run low. My work place might not alway fill me with an immense sense of joy but apparently it allures all the small people and creatures of my home.
