    Hi lorraine!
    Thought I'd say hi since I am procrastinating. I'm supposed to be getting my hub for today done (30 in 30 challenge), but I can't concentrate for a long period of time.

    What are you supposed to be doing?

    supposed to be doing nothing really i suppose, but looking around the house there is plenty i could be doing, but not in the mood for house work.   I am off work til Sunday, so no pressure on me to do anything.....  I am enjoying seeing you around in the forums.... is the 30 day challenge difficult

    Well, I'm only on day three at the moment and on my third hub, so all going to plan at the moment. I hadn't written anything for about two months, so I'm trying to come back with a vengence now! Keep thinking of ideas for hubs and writing them down, and I hope I can get through them all. I am a bit worried that I will just give up halfway through.

    I don't have a job at all so there's no pressure on me to do anything ... other than find a job. Which clearly I am failing at.

    Hi everyone,

    I've completed 2 hubs today and ripped one down and re-built it to make it look better.

    I'm now killing time for a little bit, to give myself a break.

    Writing can make you tired, bored and even silly at times, and it is those times we all struggle to get through.

    Writing can be inspirational, which can lead to more writing, but you have to maintain focus and composure.

    Try not to let yourself wander way from your main goal.

    Take it easy or however you can get it.

    I'm out and back to work.

    Thanks and enjoy.

    If you are bored, that means you are in dear need of a CHANGE!
    Grab your car, bike, bus ticket, broom stick, whatever you use for transportation and GO! Anywhere. Any place you haven't been before. Even for a hour. It's like a trip to another dimension. it's the best cure from a boredom. Trust me.

    i think it is happening all over the place.  They no people will not leave as there are not so many jobs out there, so they treat people badly..... my company have said we can not tell them any time in week ew cannot work

    SO for instance, i can work 7 days a week except for 2 -7 on two of those days.  The shifts are any time from 8-8 they say if i don't turn up for a shift they put me on, even if i tell them i am never available that time of week i will be disciplined.  Can u believe that.....  it is un real

      things are so messed up...in my area, most everyone I know is sitting back, getting drunk and collecting unemplyment...they say...no one is hiring!! wich isnt true...unemplyment, for one, is hiring....Im so glad my husband works, I would be disgusted if he sat around doing nothing, for no reason....its not fair that the hardworkign peopel are stuck doign everything, for little pay, when others are at home playing nintendo and getting paid!! (I know, not everybody is doing that, just talking about my neighborhood..)

      My son can not come into school, today, he has a runny nose through a hole in his shoe. (Northern English people sometimes use the word through, instead of because of.....)

          thats when I need to remember, what goes around comes around. I mind my own business, and they make thier decisions, it will come back to them. I cant control other people, all I can do is live my life the best I can.

    I'm not so much bored, but frustrated with my lack of writing skills and tired of waiting for the phone to ring (for hubby).  There is so much I NEED to do around the house, clean closets, paint my sons room, but my motivation is zippo.

    I escape when I write - so its not boring for me.
