I've been coming to this forum more and more lately, and I've got so hooked I find I'm neglecting other things - like housework! ;)

Mind you, I've found so many useful tips that it's worth it really.

    LOL - same problem... I tend to read about what I should be doing, instead of DOING it! :rotfl:
    I have learnt so many shortcuts and better ways, but I don't have enough time to try the new things, cos I am always on here... :o

    I daresay you have joined a VERY LARGE club of "neglecters" ! :rotfl: So, welcome! :T

    :p

    I am exactly the same... just a few more minutes on OS before I do the shopping etc. One hour later still here!
  • I agree - am definitely an MSE addict since I've discovered it. Dbf refers to Martin as 'the other man' :rotfl:
    On the plus side, I often work at home and find allowing myself to come on here little and often (well, that's the theory!) is a good way to break up my day and feel a little less lonely!


    New flat, new budget, new commitment to MSE!

    Now you've just made my life even more unproductive! I've just been over there and signed up. And I really need to go and get the dinner on so my son and his friend can eat before they have to go to Beavers at 5.30pm!

    Flylady's good but they do send you LOADS & LOADS of emails everyday, this was the one thing that put me off, but there are some good ideas ;)

    That's why we run our own little group from here, it means no nasty e-mails, just me chasing you with a leek if you don't get it all done :D
