Terminal Server in Vista Home?

I'm just looking for clarification. There is NO way I can use my newly
purchased Vista Home Premium as a remote desktop server? On XP Pro I used
remote desktop from work every day. I cannot afford Vista Ultimate.

VNC doesn't cut it over the internet.

I just want to use my PC from work!

That is correct. Vista Home Premium can *NOT* act as a Remote Desktop host.
You would need to upgrade to Vista Ultimate, Business or Enterprise edition.
