Loll about being too warm.

Think about doing some of the things I need to do.

Write a journal about things I need to do.

Maybe get round to doing some of the things I need to do (optional).

Procrastination options:
Bath the puppy.
Fill the paddling pool.
Sort out things to take to charity shop.
Brush my dogs.

So, looking good there. Lots of things to do to avoid doing what I should be doing! Not a bad morning's work.

You could make a list of things to do, too.

That would be extremely boring!

That sounds like my kind of day, Mina In fact, it's what I do pretty much every Tuesday and Wednesday, which is usually my weekend.

I've actually* got as far as writing a list today of 'things to do this year', most of which I could have done back in the first week in January strange though... as its gradually getting warmer the urge to jump into the loft and drag the speakers out just gradually reduces... and luckily most of the other stuff can't be done until its a week day I keep getting distracted by the bottle of cuban run in the kitchen that keeps lookign at me funny...

Those funny looks from in the fridge are getting to me too.

I've sort of half done some of the procrastination list. Not a bad start to the afternoon I think. I even got the laminator out to avoid doing some stuff, but it didn't laminate properly and has now become Stuff to Do instead of Stuff to Do to Avoid Stuff to Do.

So I did 3 loads of washing instead.

Oh no.
laundry... you've now done gone and reminded me that I need to put some washign on too really...
Oh no... no matter how I try I feel myself being inexplicibly dragged away from my PC, and the safety and fluffyness of HooToo and twitter in order to go do washing This could spell the end of procrastination for today
Must resist... stay in chair... stay in chair stay in ch

Good luck out there! It's a dangerous world. Come back soon!

I wish I could put off going to work today

I have to go back out in just over an hour. Recall training in the park, followed by a cat sit.

While I'm waiting, I'm hiding indoors as it's too hot in my back garden.

Technically, you *can* put off going to work today. It's only a matter of accepting the consequences.

Loll about being too warm: check.

I made it Blimey... its scarey 'out there' bedding now being washed, Washed up all lodgers plates and stuff in the kitchen, cleaned the cooker top adn oven, cleaned all the kitchen tiles, worktops, emptied crumb trays on toaster, cleaned worktops, and managed to have a cup of coffee and a cigarette as I went along
I can't be entirely sure, as I was 'doing stuff', but I've a feeling its gradually getting warmer as I go along : I've resorted to wearing shorts, which has made me very* : Not worn them since last summer.... and I have definately gone down more than two, maybe even four, inches on my waist... these are now extremely loose fitting and only held up by the tie thinggy on the waist band
Next up... bathroom... then bedroom... then landings and hallways and then the front room Its just a matter of time before I give into templtation though, and start on the bottle of rum though... maybe the cold guinness in teh fridge would be better... or the chilled white wine, hmmm.... I've got red wine too but don't think that is suitible for these kind of weather conditions.... damn... no mixer for the vodka or rum... hmmm... can you use guinness as a mixer?

If we can use Guinness as a mixer? I don't see it violating any of the fundamental laws of physics.

Whether the result is successful though... Well, why don't you try and let us know?

Bloody hell 2legs, you've gone from one extreme to the other!

And what's all this about losing weight? You're not drinking enough , dammit

Oh don't, I'm not touching my shorts!

I sorted out my bedroom shelves (well, the cleaner sorted things into boxes and I've just cleaned out 2 or 3 boxes). One bag of rubbish, one of stuff for charity shop and about a million dog poop bags to go back in the van! Oh, and a bag full of but there's probably only a few quid there in change.

I have most certainly not reduced my alcohol intake at all*.... Even I thought that far too extreme a measure to take; I just cut out some food instead... two and a half stone and counting down from my heaviest* weight, at least one and a half stone down since Christmas.... : I have to say I am loosing a little 'faith' in this whole loosing weight thing though; I came to the awful realisation that at some point I'll actually have to go into a clothes shop and buy new, smaller trousers and stuf... I hate shopping so much...

I ahd to return to the kitchen

Just swept utility rom into kitchen, kitchen into corner, and then in a moment of insanity I moved the big fridge freezer over and swept under it
Then dustpanned and brushed up and in a moment of utter domisticity watered my sticks... I mean houseplants The guinness is probably not helping me get upstiars and tackle the bathroom and bedroom
and its definately* hotter now

And I've done the plan for the training session in an hour, which I am nervous about. Can handle dogs, but this will be my first paid session - luckily I already know the dog as I've been walking her for a year so I can plan really well before we start which gives me a bit more confidence!

Ah, you'll do fine

Oo

Its warmer now.... and my energy for finishing the housework is ebbing away
Just put the second load of laundry on... yet* again* I've left it too long and there will have to be a third load in order to get all my clothes washed
If... I can... just... muster up the energy to sweep upstairs and hoover down here, then I can handle the guilt of ignoring the bathroom at the moment... well It smells fresh enough in there, so it must be clean, right?
