URGH. I am a procrastination junkie atm. All motivation to work gone, brain is foggy, just want to sort the house/go for a job/smash through a none-work related to do list/ do some self care/ get on top of the house (single parent of 18 month old.) But unfortunately.. I have a job. Anyone wanna try some shared accountability? It's 10.54 am here I'm gonna check back in an hour and update about how it's going. I'll be honest and try and get some things done. Anyone else wanna update/do this together? YAWN.

:)

Count me in! I'm soooo tired as my youngest was in bed with me all night and kept waking me up, then my oldest woke the whole house up having a nightmare. I was so determined that I was going to be productive today, but have been slobbing on the sofa doing the bare minimum.

So, in the name of accountability this is my list I want to get done before school pick up:

Take a lasagne to my parents
Respond to 8 emails
Initiate 5 other work related jobs
Put a wash on
Empty the dishwasher

Okay so here we go update (late as i went to get some lunch which says it all really)

I managed about 40 mins of focused work since my last update. My tummy derailed me doing an hour when it started rumbling for breakfast. So not ideal but at least I got something done..

It's so hard to be productive when you're up in the night with little one's isn't it. My DS son woke me up at 3.45 telling me he'd done a poo" then sat upright in his cot chanting SNACK, SNACK between 4.15 and 4.30am, had another poo at 4.30 a.m (urgh 2 nightime nappy changes!?) and then up at the crack of dawn.

What do you do for work? I work for a charity in project management so feel SUPER guilty if i'm not productive as it's for a good cause.

Good luck!

Well done, 40 mins of focussed work is an achievement! I have flitted between activities but have managed to do everything except the initiating 5 other work related things. My inbox is a little clearer.

Tomorrow I WILL be more focussed!!
