Did you know that McDonald’s now offers free wifi? They had wifi services for the longest time, but didn’t really advertise the fact that they simply supported a paid wifi service. Well, something changed, and poof, free wifi at McDonald’s! I’m not sure if *all* McDonald’s locations carry free wifi, but the ones around here do, which is all I care about.
Anyway, I’ve been chilling here at this McDonald’s since about 9:00am. A friend and I have been talking about baby shower favors for her upcoming baby shower, and I’ve been spending a lot of this time working. I have another thirty minutes to kill, and then it’ll be time for me to head out and pick up my children from the church next door (well, across the parking lot, but for all intents and purposes it can be next door) that they’re having a weeklong day camp/vacation bible school at. This will be my routine for the week, which is fine by me. Between my laptop and my netbook it’s incredibly easy to work anywhere, and thanks to McDonald’s free wifi, I don’t even have to pull out my own Sprint card.
You would think I would prefer to work from home, but when I’m home I have a lot of distractions to deal with. Even if the kids aren’t there, the urge to do laundry or straighten up often hits, and a lot of time is spent doing that instead of work!
