I usually set up my tabs on the browser with the sites I work on and Facebook, where I usually take my breaks. The last couple of days I have been going over to www.dailybreak.com instead. It is a fun site. Full of polls, quizzes and such. You go to different levels and get points. It's different and fun. So I just realized I didn't even have FB up today. I've been working on here or going to Dailybreak or working on other sites. Have you made a change in your routine lately? It's fun isn't it? Being different and making a change.

That sounds nice. I'll be glad when I feel more like doing that. I hope to get on the greenbelt again.

@celticeagle Do little stretches, a minute or so each day to start. Get your circulation going.

Never heard of dailybreak. Now that I have, I will look it up. Always looking for something to keep the old grey matter going.

@celticeagle it is interesting. I have to read on how to earn points. Does it take long to accumulate them?

@ElusiveButterfly ....No, they are adding up nicely. Have a certain amount you can do each day or give up some of your points.

I think it is fun. Quizzes and polls and things to do. I enjoy breaking there.

It is fun to make a change now and again.
Glad you found that other site that you can earn points on.
I have been doing mostly surveys and here when I can, a little bit different.

Yes, it is fun. I get in a rut and then I don't want to do anything if I don't make changes at times.

I do lots of other things on the computer while I'm here. Just because myLot is always open doesn't mean I'm here all that time. I caught up on CrowdTap the other day as I was very close to my $5 Amazon card so I worked on that and got it.

@celticeagle you ever get a gift card there? Is it an obtainable number?

What do the points do for you and can you redeem them in some way eventually? Doing something different can be rewarding on it's own definitely as it helps us get out of ruts we may be stuck in.
I spent quite a few days this month eliminating over six thousand emails in my inbox. It's hard to believe that there were ever that many of them. I'm down to 863, so I still have a ways to go. Some of them I need to figure out what to do with. Whether to transfer them to a file folder on my computer or put into a different folder on my email server.

Yes, you can redeem them. You work up to different levels that allows you to redeem in different ways. I am working on getting to where I can redeem for Amazon gift cards. I just like that I can do quizes and things. Fun for me.
I try to eliminate some emails I don't want to get any longer from time to time. On Yahoo they automatically filter many out if I get rid of them a lot and don't use them. So that is helpful. I have a lot of things I save on the email server. My memory isn't very good and so I save them incase I need to recall what transpired.

That's great. We all need to get away from FB a bit. I like to chat with my BFF and other friends there but don't have to do it 24/7.

I had recently discovered Daily Break myself and I do go there. I still go to FB and I need to get busy doing some work on things as summer means that I will have a couple of months with no paycheck at all.

That a good thing to do. I do things a certain way so I don't forget anything. I get in a rut.
