Yeah, what demiurgent said. She's not a guest in your house, you're not obligated to entertain her 24-7.
You really didn't elaborate on what exactly is bugging you. Do you fear she's lonely or bored? Do you see the things she's doing (unpacking stuff, working in the garden) and want to help or just enjoy doing stuff with her? Is she expecting you to spend time with her instead of write?
It will take time to establish a schedule that works for you, and time to just get used to the idea of working in the house with someone else there. Incidentally, it's easier for me to work with the baby napping or amusing herself beside me than to work when cthulhim is home and playing with her while I work, because then I want to do the family thing and hang with them both.
Anyway, I'm sure it would take some getting used to even if you weren't a freelancer, because there's always that period of adjustment when you move in with someone. It'll come. Hang in there. :)
