    Blimey MG! :eek: Now that *is* productive! :T :T Well done you! :T :T :T

    I'm falling asleep here :o Can't concentrate, got a vile girly stomach ache, the work that I have to do is just NOT interesting enough to keep me concentrating right now :rotfl:

    I'm thinking an afternoon of 15 minute timer sessions is in order! Possibly interspersed with mini decluttering sessions, reading, and a bit of mind mapping myself!

    Have a break, do something different (laundry, walk to the shop, whatever). Remember, if you don't have a deadline, or have to be at your desk for phone calls, then if you're working from home all that matters is that the work gets done and that you are contactable. Its not about putting the hours in, but getting the job done. So if you're unproductive, go and do something else, and do the work when you can be useful!

    (I'm cold... its affecting my brain... if you're having the same problem, go and get warm!)

    I had a productive meeting this morning, then picked up my dry cleaning and did some shopping. I've come back and done some admin, some prep for tomorrow's badly scheduled stuff and am now getting ready for my afternoon calls.

    Thank you all for wishes :)

    Good news is that my arm hurts, bad news is that I think I wrote whole load of twaddle. Wheather it is enough I can't tell.

    Crickett - well done on portfolio

    MG - fantastic re posh coffee

    Everybody else - I shall come back to catch up, too tired to concentrate. So day time telly for me (or a nap...)

    Marru.... well done lovely! I am sure you did really well. Have a nap (day time TV rots the brain cells!) and I hope your arm recovers soon!

    I need some energy vibes please ladies. I feel so incredibly shattered this afternoon. I have been plodding along today and doing great, but I have LOADS to do at home tonight and I really, really want to get it done. I have procrastinated all week long, and now all the jobs are massive big hairy scary ones. Sigh. So, any energy peeps can spare would be gratefully received! :D

    Thanks Greenbee :D You're absolutley right of course :) I actually went and had a cuppa and watched an episode of Frasier with Mr Daffs - does that count?? :rotfl: Refilled hot water bottle, and took some ibruprofen so hopefully that'll kick in soon!

    Going to set the timer again in a minute :)

    Well done Marru! :T

    Crickett, I can't really spare any actual energy today I'm afraid! :o but some positive vibes are spreading your way ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Well done Fantasia! :T

    Well done Marru! :T

    Crickett deal with your jobs at home in bite sized chunks - you're in danger of building them up to be *huge* when maybe they're not? Remember - deep breaths and baby steps - everything will get done in the end!
