Distractions
Not had much of a productive week at all unfortunately. I have had stuff planned and wanted to get stuff done. But when it came down to it I faffed about taking too long to make samples, got put off because one small thing I needed wasn't working and I didn't know how to deal with it. Finally perked up a bit more this afternoon (although after a morning which was a total washout - mostly due to my slowness and disorganisation) and am more motivated to getting a piece of kit working and used for my experiments. I have been putting off dealing with this bit of kit for 3 months already so I can't get too smug with myself.
I have no idea what I do with myself in the mornings but I've noticed I can easily spend 2.5 hours between waking up and sitting at my desk at work. Considering it only takes 30 mins to walk in or get the bus I seriously don't know what I do which takes up all the time. And then I can easily spend another hour not really getting much done once I finally reach work. It's a bit of a vicious cycle though as when I am late getting started properly at work, I stay later. Feels like life is totally slipping away with me and I don't know how to stop it and reel it back in and get going in a better way.
