So I started working from home about 2 years ago, the first year I would get up early (as I usually did when I worked in an office) take a shower in the morning and would work diligently all day long, puttering out in the evening.
Then it turned into sleeping late (9:00-10:00 am) to staying in my robe and slippers until 3:00 or 4:00 in the afternoon, working from my bed (latptop) and then working late most evenings.
Nowdays, I get up early and surprisingly have stayed away without going back to bed and getting dressed and looking presentable by 10:00 am
Has anybody gone through such a change in their personal habits from working at home?? What is your schedule like ??

Tee hee! This is probably really bad, but I usually don't get dressed until right before my husband comes home from work, unless I have to go somewhere during the day, but I don't usually. Most of the time, my husband and I do the grocery shopping and errands together, so I hardly ever go anywhere during the day except for the mailbox.

Oh, I forgot to say that I sleep in as long as my daughter will allow me. She usually wakes me up around 8 or 9 in the morning. Then I'll stay awake until about 10 or 11 at night, sometimes later.

LOL - I woke at 5:15 this morning (on my own, no alarm, normal for me) it is now 11:58 - and I am still in my pajamas. Ok, laptop in my room makes it easy for me to be lazy. Do need to get dressed sometime though I need to go to the store and it's cold outside.
For those who don't know I work from home mostly online so this is very common for me.

On days when I have no classes, errands or company expected, I'll go from my nice, warm, soft, comfy jammies to the shower to nice, clean, comfy, etc. jammies. Other than that, I dress. It may not be until 3pm, but I'm usually up either working or studying anywhere from 5-9 am. Some days (like when I have 10am classes) I literally get zero sleep, so I feel my jammie days are well earned.

I still get dressed about 7:00, but I'm still taking my son to school at 7:15ish. The clothes I wear are not always fit to be seen, but that's fine. They're comfortable.
