Well it's friday night and true to form I am not doing what I should be, thought I'd share a list and wondered if any of you are in the same boat.
What I should be doing
Listing stuff on ebay (pending)
Finding my account details and going on Consumer Action Group Site and starting off the process of claiming my bank charges back. (soonish)
Decluttering the house.(it'll happen)
Meal planning for next week.(mebbe tomorrow)
Writing out shopping list. (see above)
Exercising.(yeah right)
Getting a definate plan to get my house on the market. (Yada, yada, yada)
What I am doing
Surfing MSE and simply cannot get off here, I really need to get a grip, it's friday night forgawdssake and I've been paid.:rotfl:
Instead I've been possessed by the spirit of Scrooge and don't want to spend any money, 'cept on ebay but I reckon that does'nt count properly as it's virtual paypal money whizzing through the air.:p
Cheers Triker.

Hehe, its easy to productively procrastinate isn't it
Why don't you declutter your house BY listing stuff on ebay, and do it in that old-style 'excersise by housework' way - really exaggerate your movements and *lift* stuff up into the air - then call it exercise.
