Even if I tell myself I can get on with countless useful tasks during that time, I can't settle to anything. <br />I also feel the same when someone is in the house doing a job. A lovely man comes to do work on our house, but he never stops talking. When he finally turns away to get on with the job in hand, I'm on pins waiting for him to pop up and restart the conversation. It's a similar kind of unsettling waiting game. I wish I could just ignore these hovering sorts of distractions!Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10346863303904973315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-86442105835595696782012-02-11T01:07:22.799+00:002012-02-11T01:07:22.799+00:00Brilliant idea - go for it!

I get to see the inside of other people's house which I could use in my novel/short story plots... what a great job for a writer.Paula RChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05550276147711384895noreply@blogger.com
