    Is there a Support Group out there for us???? I have the same problem . I "say" it is because my sewing room is cold...but is it? Or is that just an "excuse"

    You are in good company. What I T-R-Y to do is look at this site when I am in the room keeping my husband company. He is addicted to all of the news programs on CNN and watches for hours. Secondly, if he is not home I unplug my laptop, that way when the 1 1/2 hours is up and the computer shuts down, I move on to another task or chore. Thirdly, I check this site when I take a break from my housework. Sometimes it works. They say to do something for 30 days befroe it becomes a good habit.

    Oh, so you use the *sewing room is cold* excuse too! :lol: I've been saying I need to get a space heater for mine, but so far, just haven't done so. If I leave the door open, my cats think it is their personal playground and wreck it. If I close the door, it is too cold in there. Can't win for losing! :lol:

    My DH says if I would stay off the internet and quit looking for new fabric and just sew what I have I would be a lot further ahead! What fun is that?

    I am so addicted too! I haven't gone to the sewing cave since MONDAY!! I'm gonna start making this my reward...sew for 2 hours read these threads 1 hour and keep going with that til I can sew 3 hours, then 4 hours!!! I may not be a "regular" when I finally get down to an hour on here, but that's the breaks!
