Anyway, point being, if you are a writer, sitting at home isn't helping you build those skills, LIFE is helping you build those. I think you need to work to maintain. If you work at your own business that's still working and you are still on a daily basis socializing with people and the outside world.

Well, I would have continued to do the last job I had even if they didn't pay me (assuming I could somehow get room and board), but that was kind of a dream job for me.
i tried the stay at home thing, my husband owns a trucking company and told me tht it would be up to me whether i wntd to wrk or stay at home after three month of staying at home i was so depressed and felt like i was taking advantage of my husbands hard wrk so i have now enrolled in a local university to finish my masters prg and work full time the grass isn't all ways greener on the other side / it just sometimes looks that way along the road to success because we move so fast ... ps nothing like my own paycheck
