I've been sitting nursing a cup of coffee and an aching back and shoulder for 5 minutes, and came up with the following new words to the tune, for your enjoyment.
Procrastination
Is my salvation
Cos I've got far too many jobs to do today
Procrastination
An invitation
To sit right down and hope the work will go away
I used to think that I could be a good Flylady
And then I realised that “could” was only “maybe”
But now today I find I really can't be bothered
Cos no-one notices
In any case

In mitigation, I have cleaned the bathroom, including giving the shower screen the full white vinegar treatment, and also done 30 mins on the WiiFit.:DIf your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
