Payment in kind might encourage you? 
got the same problem.. when it's "my time" i just sit on the setee ( we're not american here.. we don't own "couches". ) and play games, surf the forums, or watch TV..
when I'm being paid to do the job, or it's for a friend and payment is a favour to be returned in kind at a future date, then it's no problem..
what we need is a co-operative.. I'll come and do your electrics if you'll come and do my plastering etc..

i know just how you feel !
i was a lazy bugger until i went self-employed, now i do any thing to save a few pounds around the house now that money is tight, new skills include joinery, building, decorating, electrical, plumbing, mechanical... and the list goes on, if you don't have the money to pay somebody to do it, you will soon get at it your self.
i find once you start it, its not so bad

I am being serious here - get your thyroid checked.I had a medical at work and it was discovered I had an under-active thyroid when I had a follow up blood test at my doctors.
I am on tablets now and the difference is definately noticable, as before I was lethargic, fell asleep once at the wheel, kept putting jobs off at home.

i've been told by the doctor that i am borderline underactive thyroid gland.. never gave me tablets.. juts this side of normal he said..
might be worth another trip and another blood test..
might also explain the weight problem.. thyroid has something to do with metabolism doesn't it?
