tough getting started again
« 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?

most of my commercial get done at the same time every week whereas domestic is monthly but theres no set date so no pressure for me to get there on a specific day

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.
