Title: tough getting started again
Post by: g.brookes on January 03, 2013, 06:49:27 pm
been fine doing all my commercial this week cos i know the customers needed me, but when it comes to domestic ive been making all sorts of excuses to put it off till the next day.  i did this last year as well for the first week or so.  i really hate myself for doing it.  anyone else feeling lazy?

My first day back today. I worked from 9-3.45. I was really flagging at the end. All the houses were in one road, bar a first clean in the morning. I'm ready for another holiday now.

That's why I only worked one day, so I could spend time with my son. I did a couple of hours this morning whilst he was at a friend's for a sleepover.
