Kate Bendix is a journalist and former TV producer who is setting up her own business, Natural Pet Choice which sells healthy, organic food for pets. She loves real food, proper cooking and organic produce for herself, so it makes sense that she should want the same for her pets. But when she tried to find a site on the Web that offered a range of natural pet products, she couldn't find one. This is why she has set up the website. She talks about her progress here. 

December 5th 2007

It's dead easy to become distracted when you work from home, especially when the to do list gets out of control (you know there's too much to do when the only thing long enough to get the list on is toilet roll).

I just added a few new products to the site today and realised how much work needs doing on it.  I've decided that websites are behemoths in their own right just hanging in cyberspace, consuming you and everything you can chuck at it.  But they're never satiated. It's all take, take, take, me, me, me.

See?  I got distracted again.

Here's my list of reasons why I shouldn't be working right now:

  • The cat looks hungry (sucking in of cheeks and pleading eyes)
  • It's dark and rainy outside (so relieved I don't commute any more.  I feel lucky AND smug)
  • I worked last weekend (it's Wednesday get over it!)
  • It's nearly 5.00pm doesn't everyone stop work now? (not in the land of the self employed, sweetie)
  • My Google ratings are quite high, I can afford to take a hour off (everyone's ratings are high, it's two weeks to Christmas, idiot)
  • I need to think about dinner (I'm always thinking about dinner)
  • I need an early night (at 5.00pm? Have I got jetlag?)


That'll do.  I'm over it now.  Back to it.

Maybe.....
