Working at Home on the Internet

Helping You Run an Internet Home Business

Working Together (Separately)

Introduction

As some of you who have visited my Forum may already know, the wife, (aka. spouse, K.) is having the building sold out from under her Hair Salon. There is no way to really swing buying the building, so she has made the decision to run her business from the basement of our house.

I am having mixed feelings about the upcoming arrangement. Although she has been self employed for a long time, she has always maintained the Shoppe at a different location from the house. This will be her first experience of Working at Home.

I have explained some of the advantages and disadvantages of having a business at home, but the situation for her leaves few options.

We don’t envision her actually starting to run the business from home until some time in October. That gives her relatively little time to have contractors come in to set up new lighting, lay a floor on the existing cement floor and install additional plumbing and other incidentals that are sure to creep up.

This will be an Ongoing Process for quite some time with both of us getting used to each other in an entirely different way. As co-tenants for our businesses. Hence, this will be an Ongoing Series on the process, with hopefully lots of successes and few tribulations, about what occurs when spouses try to run different businesses from the same house.

Stay tuned, and join in the adventure. I hope it will be a lot of fun and not turn into a separation of Chruch and State issue.
