I have plenty of projects around the house that I could be working on and should have done. I need to make sure that I get up and start doing them. I have a long road ahead of me and will have plenty of nights where I don't have a GAL and will be alone. What I choose to do with that time is up to me.
matw,
I've found that I'm much better doing outdoor projects than indoor projects. I can stay outdoors from dusk to dawn, but indoor projects are a lot harder for me. The one thing I've found that really helps is to turn a project into a creative endeavor. For example, if I need to paint a room, I don't look at it as a task to be completed, instead the task is to make it so interesting and different that the room can become a showpiece. Try venetian plaster instead of paint. Use different colors of metallic paint. There's all sorts of stuff that can be done. But, the routine stuff doesn't get me off my @ss, the creative stuff does get me going.
I don't know if that approach will help you, but it's made a lot of difference for me. And, as a bonus, when people see your house and they start complimenting you, then things get kicked into high gear (and your WW may notice as well).
