    Taking a small break

    Helllloooooo KB!

    I have come to a decision that I hope I can stick to....
    I'm wasting waaaay to much time on here- even though I hardly come on here anymore, the little I'm doing is still too much. Like last night- MrsB was out, the kids were asleep, so I sat down to do some desperately needed work on the MotoEquip website. I thought- "I'll just check KB".... 2 hours later I suddenly realised how much time I'd wasted... nothing got done on the website.

    Some freinds have offered to help out with the website- I can't ask them to help until I've had a bloody good crack at it.
    My house needs painting. The place is a mess outside and in.
    The combined stresses of a new job, the 'silly season', having two pre-schoolers and a new business that we have injected tens of thousands of dollars into is getting at me in a big way. If I keep going like this it's gonna put me in hospital! And if you think thats an overly dramatic statement, ask to see my stomach the next time you see me!

    So for the time being I'm not going on here (wonder how long THAT will last- 2 days?) MrsB lurks on here under my user name, so if I appear to be on line it'll be her (I hope!). I'll be popping in and out as MotoEquip to check on my business threads and PM's, but that'll be it.

    And for the guy's and gals I chat to on MSN- sorry but that's out too, well OK, maybe a little bit.... you know I can't resist you Rashika

    I'll be back.

    I know what you mean Tony, shit I don't have 1/4 of the stresses and going-on's that you do and I hardly find the time to log on, but I can a lot at work. All the best for your family, business, and of course your stomach (whatever that means!)

    I know I'm only a new person here, but I know some basics about websites, and could help you with that motoequip website you mentioned. Might get you motivated.

    See you need to find a job where you get paid to sit at work all day and read websites.

    There are some perks to working in IT.

    Thanks a lot! You *know* there's a Management Spy lurking somewhere on this site and you've gone and blown our gaff...

    Heya TonyB. Look forward to seei9ng you back later when you get some of the other stuff sorted. Can understand you, dude - I also find that I get sidetracked with KB when I could be doing other things.
    Motorbike Camping for the win!
