Home Sweet Home

I have been thinking today about working at home, technically my studio is not in the house so I do go out of the back door to work but it is so very close and at times difficult to separate the two. Work and home are so intertwined for me because of the domestic nature of my subject and also my maternal nature and although my offspring are by no means dependant my urge to gather my family together and feed them is still very strong.
I found myself today when deciding to come in and make a cuppa getting distracted by the debris in the kitchen and spending at least half an hour sorting it out.
I used to be able to leave the house stuff and get on with my work but now I just cannot do it...Why.
I need order to be able to have a clear mind to get out into that studio and sometimes it drives me crazy trying to keep this balance.
I think a busy Autumn has bought this to my attention and I have moments that I would like to go into my studio and not come out for hours and have my meals and refreshments delivered with the care and love I give every offering to my loved ones....Angry...me??
