Are you addicted to comping?
I am having a break from comping (except for a handful) as was getting hooked!

How many times do you say?:
"Darling, just a few minutes while I enter these competitions"
"Can you get your own tea love"
"Can you walk * to school"
"Oh the hoovering/dusting/blah blah can wait"0 -
I don't think so, I mainly use my computer for work but to prevent utter boredom I give myself a ten minute break every so often to read the news on here etc. In my last house I didn't have the internet and so I had to stay behind at work to get everything organised, it didn't bother me not having internet access at home.0

Just had a forced mini break lasting two weeks, due to hols and PC problems. I now limit comping to a few hours in the morning.0

I'm sure my kidney problems are due to saying out loud 'I'll just finish these dailies before I go......' and 10 minutes later I am still holding it in!

Have to admit i am hooked on comping, but as i am always up early, i do get all my housework done first.Wouldn't be able to concentrate if my jobs weren't done.0

Once I sit at the pc I'm lost - I say to myself I'll just do this page then I will do the hoovering/ironing or whatever but an hour later I still haven't moved - so now I do whatever needs doing first and then dedicate myself to comping0
