At work, the offices are full of equipment and furnishings not normally found in a person’s residence. They have service departments for problems and supplies to keep everything moving.
As people shift the work/life relationship to remote and hybrid work, we have to consider what equipment, technology, security, and office furniture we might need. It could be no small investment.
If you are lucky enough to be in the finance, writing, legal, research, planning, technology, marketing, design, or education sectors you need a laptop and a beach. Currently, you may be tied to a desk in those fields, but you have the option to go rogue. You do not need to be stuck the city you work to live.
Our families are growing, and new home prices are in the upper atmosphere. More people are adding to their existing homes to fit their elderly parents, gran, or college-aged children. Fitting an office in this can be challenging, but a separate and quiet space can be provided with office dividers.
As our infants stretch into adolescence, they outgrow everything from socks to hats. Their cute little crib is replaced with a full bed, dresser, and wardrobe. During their education, we watch them begin at the student desk and colouring books, advancing to lab benches and computer stations.
Many people underestimate the power of loyal relationships with local vendors or retailers. We tend to shop around for the lowest price, and the relationship is only transactional. Your local furniture retailer, jeweller, auto mechanic, tradie, or arborist can do more to save your cabbage over a long-term relationship.

Loyalty is not dead. Loyalty doesn’t mean “stick with people as long as things are exactly perfect”, It means “stick with people”. Extreme circumstances are intolerable, but that is not the precedent. People are overwhelmingly good natured. Some just need longer to prove it.
Life is the experiences of our lives, families, and businesses as they grow, the people we meet along the way, and the life we share through those relationships. When we leave this world, all that is left behind are the stories from those relationships.
Anyone we miss lives again in the stories we tell of them. Let your stories be epic tales.
