I am not doing what I am supposed to be doing

Normally I am not a procastinator... Normally I just get on with the job. But since The Block I am finding every excuse under the sun to sit on my bum and do nothing.I had great plans today... I was going to pack (after all I am moving Friday!), but I have not lifted a finger. …

I had great plans today… I was going to pack (after all I am moving Friday!), but I have not lifted a finger. I don’t have a whole house to pack as we living in a tiny unit and I didn’t unpack much when we moved here earlier this year, but still, there is lots to do.
I have sat on the computer, read blogs, tweeted, ate 3 crumpets, talked on the phone and now I am watching Dr Phil.
I do love these days!

    ….and considering you have been doing nothing lately;-0 you would think you are more motivated….You know you work better under pressure.
    You should move like me…..on friday just add as much as you can into the boot of your car and cross your fingers nothing breaks….simple and no pre-packing, just lots of blogging and DR Phil in between.

    You are allowed to relax after all the hard work on the block surely it is well deserved. 🙂

    We all need days like that Katrina – you especially at the moment I'd say 😉

    If only we could not feel guilty about them it would be perfect! – Or is it just me who sits and thinks about all the things I should be doing?? LOL

    hmm, crumpets huh, nomnomnom. Honey or vegemite???

    Good luck for the move on Friday, (I hope the sun shines), and I hope that you and your sis are the block winners. You gave up more than the others (leaving partners and the kidlets), so deserve the big reward!

    It's Wed morning here in sunny U.K. and I've just stuffed in 2 crumpets with an inch of butter on each…I think you well and truely deserve a 'down' day as only yesterday I went thru the entire Block site on ninemsn and looked at every room (remember I still can't download the show over here)…you have done a massive job under conditions I can only guess…whether you win or not you and your sis must be so proud…well done! My favourite room had to be the kitchen…just love that dining table, the lights and your art work is just so clever!! Have a rest…it will all get done one way or the other. Robx

    god I'm not surprised, you'd be very exhausted atm. Mate it took me around 2mths before I started to feel myself again after my reno project early this year. It's hard to explain, but you know what i mean. Good luck with the move, I suggest you get someone else to pack for you.

    Are you serious girl! After what I just watched on the block tonight, I think you deserve a whole month of sitting on your bum doing nothing!! I hope you had a good day, I do love those days of sitting on the computer, reading blogs & doing not much at all. Make the most of it while you can, I say. And can I just say while I will enjoy getting my evenings back (hello 7o'clock news!) I am going to miss seeing you and Amie every night on the Block. You girls have been the highlight of the series.

    Take a break Katrina. I'd be giving Scotty Cam a call to see if he can round a few people up to do the packing for you! It's been great getting to know you on the Block. hugs and best wishes you to. Jane x
