I used to rush around making the house spotless for his return, then one week I didn't. I asked if he had noticed anything different and you've guessed it - he hadn't. Since then I haven't done as much housework. Conclusion the housework I do is for my benefit or writing avoidance/thinking time. Just off to hypnotise myself to do more writing. Lol.

I hope I didn't come off as bossy last post, it was said slightly tongue in cheek (although it was all true!) I was just trying to convince you that your writing is important, certainly more important than a bit of dust on the tabletop, and you don't need justification to put it before vacuuming. I give you permission :)Serenityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03048931721883269821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120437128462068350.post-81206194855425156852011-03-02T10:16:26.544+00:002011-03-02T10:16:26.544+00:00Just read Serenity's post.

So I have no problem with that. <br /><br />By no means is my house gleaming... but I do need to at least put the hoover around the house (downstairs at least) once a week! And obviously the other is dishwashing. I actually sling lots of stuff in the dishwasher that I should really hand wash to sometimes save me time :-P <br /><br />Lol! I use my kitchen timer, and the timer on my phone, too! I think I'll be able to organise myself better once I have a full day to myself. Currently only get three hours. So I do what I can in those three hours, and usually the housework etc. when he's home (bad mummy!).Teresa F Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04368928238008888457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120437128462068350.post-67199086221121240502011-03-02T10:00:58.616+00:002011-03-02T10:00:58.616+00:00Christine - I am really enjoying 'Love Writing...Christine - I am really enjoying 'Love Writing'. She has a way of writing that things stick in my head, instead of going in one eye and out of the other. Lol.<br /><br />Teresa - Did you read Serenity's comment on my last post? I felt very contrite after that, but find it very difficult to ignore my housework. OneNote is very good for idea parking. One way I have found to give myself writing time in the day is to use the kitchen timer - 30 mins writing, 30 mins housework or paperwork. Try it.

RSI not helping either. But it is great when a new (plot) bunny surfaces. I use Onenote to note my new ideas down.Teresa F Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04368928238008888457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120437128462068350.post-41268634209829590002011-03-01T12:01:40.137+00:002011-03-01T12:01:40.137+00:00Ive just bought 'Love Writing' kindle edit...Ive just bought 'Love Writing' kindle edition.
