Where are you when you mylot?

All of us have different daily routines. I usually like to go through mylot discussions in the morning while I'm having coffee, checking my emails, etc. I do it again in the late evening when I'm just relaxing on the couch with my feet propped up. However, that will change a bit this weekend, I am the academy coordinator for our wildland fire academy, so I will be mylotting when I am not busy at the academy. Since I'm the Logistics officer, they will be keeping me pretty busy, haha. But I will be staying at my own home this year instead of in the barracks, so I will still have my down time in the evenings. So, when do you mylot? What is your favorite place to be when you are mylotting?

I mylot while at home in the living room, sitting on my easy chair with the laptop on a computer table. I can pull the computer talbe close to me so I can still sit back in the chair to be more comfortable. It is much more comfortable to mylot in myh easy chair that it would be on my bed, or even the couch. I am not in here all day, but when I am here, I do what I can, however few posts it might be. when I am away from my computer, I post once in awhile on my cell phone. I don't do that to often though, as I much prefer to do it on my laptop. I am glad to be a part of the mylot community, and I do enjoy every bit of time that I spend in here. good luck to you and happy mylotting.

I do not find it very comfortable to be on the computer in bed. I have a tray table upstairs as well that I can put my computer on and then work from my bed, but not all cozy and comfy. I like having some kind of a table for the laptop. I do have a desk top upstairs as well.

That is why I love my laptop, I can sit (usually indian style) on the couch or bed and use it. I also like sitting in my rocker on my screened in porch when the weather is nice, particularly in the morning

I'm in my home office, at the end of my lunch break entertaining Frodo, my Dalmatian pup. Usually I write marketing copy and science articles for a living - typing MyLot responses is the fun aspect of an otherwise not-very-fun job! Oh, that and online jigsaw puzzles. And solitaire. And Mah Jong. And Tower Bloxx. Annnd ... coo, MyLot games!

Depending on what I am doing and what time of day, I too am in my home office mylotting. Usually, if I am at my work table, then I am on mylot for a break from whatever I am doing that day.

Sad isn't it? I bought a dalmie because he'd get me out of the house. But it's "fetch Frodo, I'll take you out in a moment" - one hand on the frisbee, other on the keyboard ... Actually, that sounded rude!

When I get up in the morning, I get on the computer, delete the stuff I'm not going to do anything with, look at my yahoo groups posts, and, after that, if I have time, I'll start going thru my mylot stuff. I can look at my mail at work, but I can't respond, but it does allow me to delete mylot discussions I won't respond to. When I get off work, I again go thru and delete things/look at things before I start mylotting, because, once I start I don't want to have to stop and do other things.

With my full-time job taking most of the hours each day during the week, my time to come on to myLot gets limited. I could only participate in myLot in the evening hours after getting back home from work. But, any way, that has become my favorite way of relaxtion, posting and responding to postings. Very enjoyable to be active in the myLot community.

Well my favorite place is to be at home mylotting as it is more comforotable to do while im at home. I usually am on mylot while i am at work and when my bos's are gone. I get more mylotting done at work then i would at home. Im not to busy at work and can get my work done pretty fast while here, but at home i have to cook, clean do the laundry and to much stuff so i dont have much time to mylot unless im watching TV or i should say Trying to watch TV but while im sitting in my bed or on the couch is when i wuld be mylotting at home. I would like to get in more time to mylot at home so i can make the payout this month on here but its hard while im at home so while im at work i try my hardest to reach my goal of 20 responses a day on here.

I am online off and on all day. I have a laptop on a tv table. I may have the television on, or the radio. I might have a cup of coffee, or tea while I am online. I buy broadband to go when I must travel.

How expensive is it to have the wireless card? Is that in addition to a dsl connection at your home? I have a desktop and a laptop. Maybe next year I can get a netbook.

I have an att wireless internet card, so I always can get internet no matter where I am. I always take my netbook with me when I travel. I love my laptop, but the netbook is so much lighter and more portable to travel with.

Hehehe Hello Palonghorn... I was making me the same question on my mind this morning... where do mylotters mylott? How do they mylott? Ha! Well I have an eshop, and I´ve been a stay-at-home-mom, ever. So I beautify my eshop while I mylott, at the same time. One photo here, one mylott there, and so on. I stop, when I make meals,get children from their schools, while we make homework, I was dishes and take kids to their extraschool activities, such as tennis or futbol, and then I return to my pc. But I mylott always at your home (our home is your home). This week I had two of my children sick. On monday and tuesday I had Andy throat sick and today I had Bety with stomach ache. But they are upstairs, or beside me in their pc, just quietly sitted. Blessings!... Dainy

I usually do my myLotting when I'm watching TV at home, either in the living room, the dining room or in the bedroom. (Obviously we're also TV junkies :) Sometimes I do it sitting in our backyard. Oh, the wonders of WiFi. There's no particular time when I myLot. When I feel like it, I just open my laptop and read the discussions and participate if I can contribute to the topic. But this would change in a week's time 'cause I'm going back to work. It's almost at the end of my vacation time :(

Even now that I have a new job, I am still mylotting in the office. I love to mylot when at work especially when I don't have anything else to do. It's when at work that I have more time to think. Because when I am at home I try not to surf and touch the computer. It's family time and my own time to do stuff offline. And mylot really keeps me busy when there is not much to do at work.

I come onto mylot at different times of the day however there are also times when i have not been on here for a few days. I have a very demanding full time job which takes up a lot of my time. I am also a single parent and so that cuts my time down for coming onto mylot. When i am at work and i am having my lunch i like to call in to mylot to check out any new responses aswel as respondng to peoples new disussions. Then very late at night or early hours of the morning i will again try to come onto mylot to get some more discussions done. Not always easy at night as i am so tired and it is hard to think after such a busy day.

myLot is kind of my second-job (besides Reading the Bible on YouTube and writing connections and networking with friends on Facebook and going to the bank and store and out to eat and watching TV and sleeping and occasionally bathing and going to Bible-study or church ) so I do it in my little-apartment, in the bed/computer/dressing/reading-room, from about 1 to 4 every work-day.

Home, I don't have the benefit of owning a laptop, though that'll be next "big" purchase as my desktops kind of a dinosaur. That and I don't really frequent anywhere that I'd be comfortable spending the kind of time that occurs whenI sit down at a computer with internet capabiltities... YOu can try to avoid it but eventually you'll soemhow wind up in either youtube or wikipedia and then the next thing you know it's tomorrow. .

I normally do it in the comfort of my home, or should I say office as well since I work from home? Haha!~Best times are always night time as in the morning there's just too much stuff to do. At night is the best when my wife has put our 8-month old son to bed & she herself retires as well, like NOW!~ Haha!~

I just moved and my new home is pretty chaotic at the moment. There are things everywhere, the only free table is in the kitchen and I am sitting at that table with my laptop. When we manage to remove some of the things from the living room I plan on doing my mylotting there. I usually like to sit on the couch with my laptop on my lap. In front of me I have a table with my coffeecup because I like to drink coffee while I am using the computer. I look forward to sitting on the couch again I usually mylot when I return to my home after a busy day, it is a nice way for me to relax.

I'm at home at the dining room table and I usually have MyLot open on a tab, same as my Facebook and email accounts. I am trying to work harder on MyLot, though. I mostly leave my laptop running all day so I'm back and forth, answering posts and hopefully try to create one post a day. Strange, nobody says they're on the loo when they mylot....embarrassed???

I usually go myLotting at home after coming home from work. I can't do it at the office because things are getting busy in there. I find it more convenient to myLot at home because there's no task or work to bother me so I can spend my whole time myLotting when I'm at home. During weekends also I have lots of time to spend in myLot. I also go through myLot discussions while having coffee because it feels more relaxing. Have a nice day.

The best place i think is my cough and my big cushion. After dinner, I have a habit to open my computer ,chat with my friends online,and do mylot.Now i am in my holidays, I have more free time than usual, i like to sit on the cushion and drink coffee to attend discussions.
