I don't think I have been on schedule since the day I started so if I couldn't do it back when I hadn't a full workload there's
not much chance of it happening now, ah well such is life.

On schedule, having been behind with holidays, but we're still filling up the second van. Besides, the weather hasn't been too bad here other than a couplee of days last week.  I think it's just worth saying that even if you aren't behind schedule, if it's your intention to work in the rain when you are full, you should still get out and work. Consider it as training.

I have 2 jobs that are not done , But because of on going ground  works which have been dragged out for months and a ridiculous effort to get parked on one part of an estate they ain't getting done anytime soon 2 weeks behind and 4 attempts to get them its becoming a real pain .

 ;D ;D ;D

im obsessively organised sean at times.although i havent always been like this. ;)

work gets cleaned 4 weekly,6 weekly,8 weekly virtually to the day every time(apart from holidays).obviously i juggle some 6/8 weekly jobs around a bit that are away from ultra compact work but i keep to a pretty tight schedule usually.

strangely i get satisfaction from it! :o :)

Miles behind , basically missed a month , so I'm up to date . Lol
My daughter has got HSP , Lasts about several weeks so I'm having to care for her a few days a week .
Work comes second , more to lif than worrying about being on time .

Frost a tad today , oh know the cold weather is here

I'm about a week behind, its always the same this time of year.
I'm curious about how others work things on cleaner planner when they start getting behind?
So say you get to the end of that week with 2 days not done, do you move them over to the next week, or leave them where they are and just add them to a worksheet when there ready to be done?
Currently I end up shuffling work around if get behind, which can take a while as I have to look weeks ahead to find free space.

4 weeks. A week off for a bike ride to Paris, 2 weeks in Egypt and working on my own now have all come together at the same time.




Anyone want to buy 2K of work? Basingstoke.

They stay in my list of jobs not done - then I try to juggle work around to squeeze them back in. Parts of my round remain bang on time whilst others are hopelessly behind. I suppose I could make everyone a month late but I don't tend to do this. Any new work I take on I point out I'm hopelessly unreliable due to being seriously overloaded - strangely they still want me. I'm either brilliant or too cheap. (both probably).
