Hi Lucky

Hi Lucky,

Happy to see you here.

I know it has to be diffuclt using phone. I have to code all my pics because I can not get picture dialog box to pop up and that is very frustrating because it takes more time. I can only imagine what it is like on a phone

 

 

Lucky plan for the weekend

I'm stuck on phone Internet so I won't be posting a lot of graphics, but will just be extra enthusiastic to make up for that :)

This weekend is mostly about creative writing. As far as I can see, probably the main reason my HP is helping me out so much at the moment is because he wants me to use the time to write. I want to be a professional writer and I'm getting increasingly sure that he wants me to (I know, what a great career choice for a procrastinator! But your HP doesn't ask you to do something if it's going to be impossible...)

I eventually want to be spending 10 hours writing and 10 hours reading per week. But given that I've struggled to do half an hour writing in my lunchbreak for the past couple of days, I've decided to work up to that. I did 2 hours last Saturday so I'm going for 3 hours today.

I've also given myself a whole lot of domestic tasks today, probably in an attempt to avoid writing - I need to foil that by doing the writing first!

Today I've already been shopping and done a few other bits - the rest of today in order looks like:

Prayer time
3h writing
Clear kitchen
Clean bathroom
Shred paper
Do other tasks quickest first ( for max sense of achievement!)
Go out at 6 with dog and big umbrella to meet housemate
Clean rat cage while she gets dinner
Dinner
Rat cuddle while watching TV :)
Shower!

Tomorrow I've got a nurse appointment first thing (just a cut knee!) and there can be a massive wait, so I plan to show up at 8am for 10am and do 2 hrs creative writing in the waiting room. Ambitious...

Then I've got an afternoon of domestic pottering with the housemate, which I'll use to make a start on my post pile and (shame!) take the last of the Christmas decorations down...

And then I'm off doing some work for a friend in the evening. Busy! Here I go! :)

Well I have to post my first success for the weekend. While it is not on my list it is at this point a major victory. Last night at 8:30 I had to drive 1 hour round trip to get a print cartridge for my printer so that I could print out infor to taxes. At 10:15 when I got home DD had gotten on the computer and well it kept crashing and the monitor was doing all kinds of crazy funky things. Well I had been up since 5:00 and I just did not have the mindset to deal with it so I went to bed and got back up at 2:00. Well I have been up since 2:00, comuter is finally fixed, I have created a post for motivation and I am ready to get started at 5:30. Wish me luck this weekend and please come and join me.

Wow! Amazing! Well done you!

Wow! Amazing! Well done you! And I'll second what Helen said - please get some sleep today so you can continue to kick that much ass all weekend :)

Wow! Well done. Night time

Wow! Well done. Night time computer fixing. What determination! What courage!

I hope you have plenty of naps in your schedule today. After all YOU are the goose who lays the golden eggs, you must take care of yourself too.

 

Thanks
