Home Office Tips From Maren Elwood

I've seen many posts on Facebook and emails on how to adjust to working at home.  Many of these "lists" focus on creating a schedule and sticking to it.  As someone who has worked from home for over 30 years, I totally disagree with this approach. 

You can check out my "Tips for Working From Home" by downloading this suggestion sheet.

Online Teleconference Tools:  Do you need to use a online teleconferencing tool such as Zoom, GoToMeeting, Google Hangouts or WebEx.  Please call me before you buy a subscription so I can help you figure out which service is best for you.  And, I'm also letting people use my Zoom account and I'll setup your call for a small fee.

LINKS TO SHOPPING ONLINE

Instacart is the way you can get your groceries, prescriptions and other needed items delivered right to your door.  I've tried them and they are great. Below are the stores they cover in the Monterey Bay area.
This local company, Russo's Wholesale Produce, has offered to sell to people directly in this trying time.  Just call 831 899 2638 and place your order.  Then you can drive by and they will bring your package to your car.  No need to even go inside.

As many of you know, I'm a documentary fan and most of what I watch has to do with archaeology and anthropology.  So, if you'd like to see some of my favorites, they are below.
