Do you get so busy with MyLot that you forget to do something?

Or do you get so busy with something else that you forget something? As I just ate my muffin I realized that I forgot to eat anything for supper. Not sure what I want either, so I guess I must not be very hungry. Do you ever forget to eat?

When I joined over two years ago this was all I wanted to do. I am here and on another social site, and I have not gotten to be here much lately so I just got all wrapped up in it.

Look through some of the discussions I have started. Every few months I post something about how to earn or what not to do. I have not in awhile because my jobs have changed. Sometimes people who are here a long time get mad at people or bored and they leave. I have not let anyone make me mad, and I am seldom bored, as I love learning about people, so I am still here. Nice to meet you. One bit of advice is to add lots of friends.

I do this all the time. I will forget or put off eating until I get a headache and feel as though I will pass out. I have fainted and come close to fainting from hunger many times, so I should really know better. I am hungry right now. I have not eaten since breakfast and it is now passed dinner time.

Hubby fixed lunch. I fixed food for my son's family for tomorrow, and made some muffins too. I realized as I tried one to see how it came out that I had not eaten an evening meal.

Yes that has happened a few times. Specially last month, I got real busy with Ebay and forgot to eat dinner a few times. I usually ended up having a bowl of cereal. I am a big believer in writing myself notes. I forget if I don't do it.

I am doing good. I kicked butt last month, this month everybody is holding onto their money. Not much is going on. I am hanging in there, people will be getting their income tax refunds and the economy will be picking up. Thanks for asking.

hello gardengerty lol nope i do not think that i have ever forgotten to eat, especially a dinner meal like that. lol but to answer your question, have i ever gotten so carried away with Mylot that i have forgotten to do something. nope, cannot say that i have. but lots of times when i am logged onto Mylot, i will put something off until later on in the day to get something done, whatever that that may be. lol take care and have a beautiful evening.

No, unfortunately I rarely forget to eat. But then, I'm pretty thin so I guess it's OK. And I never get to spend much time on mylot anymore. Wish I did.

I used to be very busy with my lot, and yes, I have forgotten to eat on occasions. It was only when I smellled the dinner burning that I would remember I hadn't eaten. However, for some strange reason, things have changed a bit. I am now so busy cooking and cleaning...and eating, that I rarely get time to log into myLot. I think it is time for me to change my lifestyle again!

Times flies when you're having fun? LOL that's my excuse and I'm stickin' to it! Actually, I don't "forget" so much as I tell myself, "OK, just three more posts and I'll sign out". Sometimes it takes me awhile to find them :) To the other part of your question, yes, I do forget to eat. I guess I don't prioritize my meals as much as I should. I'll make sure the girls have what they want and then I'll tangent off into something of my own, not having eaten. Happens more often than it should.

With no one to feed if hubby is at work, I do sometimes forget on a day off. I get busy during the day sometimes and miss my lunch. If that happens, then I eat as soon as I walk in the back door at night.

Oh I wish Gerty. Sometimes I feel like I eat all the time...lol. No, my thing that I forget is to pay my bills on time. Every now and then I decide to leave the money in my bank for as long as I can and I always forget then. I'm better off if I pay the bill straight away. I keep the bill close and handle it every day, but them the day it's due comes and goes and I've forgotten to pay.

I work with alot of sites online every day of the week. I get so busy at times also and forget to make time to get some cleaning and such done. It is hard to work it all in at times though.

I usually don't forget to eat, as I am usually eating all day LOL I usually am not doing mylot when I forget about something else, but as I've said several times before....I am going to attempt to be more active here. I'm in hopes of reaching my first payout by the end of March. Marsha p.s. Do they only pay once a month, or can you cash out at anytime?
@GardenGerty (157562)

Marsha, you earn $10 by midnight the last day of the month and they automatically pay you on or before the 15th of the next month. Never failed to do so in over two years. I sent you a message on Gather, but look for a p.m. from me here.

The problem that I have is that I am trying to do about a million things online in a day and mylot isn't one that I think about. I need to add it to my daily line up. I am sitting at $4.19 for the entire time I've been a member. Marsha

My fiance and I have both been so enthralled here or watching t.v., or talking or what not that we've forgotten we were hungry until our stomachs growled again. I guess you could say we knew we were hungry but we kept putting it off.

Sometimes it is that way when you are in a relationship. Other things are more important than food.

It's not that I forget to do things I guess. I put them off longer than I have to. Like right now my laundry needs folded. I would rather sit here and respond to discussions than do any sort of house work at the moment so keep the discussions coming!

Many times I find myself getting too busy posting here that I forget to eat. Or I do not feel like eating. I am Insulin Diabetic and taking medications for it that have really helped to decreas my appetite, so it is easy sometimes to forget to eat. I just try to eat at least a little bit, and hope for the best from there. But you do need to try and remember to keep yourself from skipping too many meals or you have the days where you will be constantly hungry as well.

Well when I was busy and more active in Mylot yes, things like this did occur. I think the top item was I forgot to sleep during one day of the weekend. It happens. Other times, I forget to finish up the laundry due to mylot but its not as bad. One thing that doesn't suffer from mylot interference is cooking. Especially since several staples of mine require attention. I'll admit however I use to put on slow cooker items to cheat a bit (chili, gumbo, roasts).

Unfortunately I never forget to eat. I may forget to do other things, but I never forget to eat. I don't know so much that I forget to do things when I am doing mylot and Gather, but I do avoild doing things when I am doing these sites. There are times I know I should be doing other things but I just keep reading and typing away.

I cannot tell you how many times I have forgotten something because I was working online. I usually skip a few meals because of this,LOL. I have tried to keep my time evenly spread between all the different things that I have to do through the day but sometimes it's not easy. So I guess your not alone on this one,LOL.
