I've been working from home for going on 6 years. I have the same problem. It doesn't help that I also have a young child at home as well. He's only known me to work from home, so every few hours I get forced breaks, which is sometimes very nice to have.

I am with the other commenter that having some sort of activity to transition yourself from work to home is important. Sometimes a jog, or walk is enough. Most days I don't have anything to transition with beyond cooking the family dinner.

It sounds silly, but try changing clothes. Most people have uniforms for activities, like gym clothes. Pick something to wear for work, and then change out of that at the end of the day.
