On the Treadmill: days 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. 10,11,12

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 29 Sep 21

Whew! Accountability works because I've been being diligent on the treadmill (I missed one day out of this day 5 to 12 group) despite working long hours. Even if it's only for a couple of minutes, I make sure I walk a little,...

On the Treadmill: days 4 and 5

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 22 Sep 21

Yesterday was day 4, today is day 5. Well, I wasn't able to write on here yesterday because I've been working extra hours, but I certainly DID get on the treadmill, day 3 for 5 minutes just like I said I was going to do. And then...

How do you keep up on myLot??

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 20 Sep 21

I'm thinking about using some sort of planner so that I can: keep up with the people that I follow, their discussions that I comment on, just in general stay on top of things as far as commenting is concerned. Do any of you have...

On the Treadmill: day 4 (I don't feel like it)

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 20 Sep 21

Ugh. But not. Exercise can be such a chore, but I honestly *like* exercising and of course you can't help but love the results. Starting this discussion here on myLot has already helped me in being consistent with this treadmill...

Do you have a home bar?

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 19 Sep 21

Do you have a home bar, and if so, how is it set up? On a bar cart? In the kitchen in a corner? I know someone who has all of their wines etc. in a cabinet that is directly above their stove, and when those cabinets are open,...

On the Treadmill: Day 3 (The struggle is mental)

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 19 Sep 21

Well, 10 minutes done today and... we're on to Day 4. Walking is a mental challenge for me, rather than a physical one. I'm *physically* capable of walking for an hour non-stop on the treadmill, but *mentally* I'm just not there...

On the Treadmill: day 2 *again*

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 18 Sep 21

Well, after I started a discussion yesterday about treadmill day 2, I realized that it was actually day one because I had walked on the treadmill very early yesterday morning (at about 2 or 3 AM), and NOT the day before. So,...

Sorry for the novel, but ... Why can't she just be grateful?

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 17 Sep 21

I've been working at a job for the past 10 years. For the past two years one of the people the owner hired started bringing his girlfriend to work with him every single day. The company has a very laid back atmosphere. The owner...

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 17 Sep 21

I've started a walking program... again. I haven't walked on the treadmill today yet, but I will. This time I really want to lose weight. And not only do I want to lose weight, I want to be healthier, a lot...

I need to concentrate on ME and my own life!

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 3 Oct 12

So, where do I start? The long and the short of it is that I need to concentrate on my own life. I do a lot for other people, and tend to neglect myself. I have always been like that. A friend of mine called me a few...

I feel like I'm neglecting my myLot "friends".

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 29 Sep 12

I feel like such a bad myLot friend right now...thank goodness it is the weekend and I can drink some wine to relax and therefore ease some of my guilt, but we are not talking about that right...

I feel grouchy today.

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 26 Sep 12

That's it, nothing earth-shattering. I just feel grouchy today. I started on another diet, I'm hungry, I'm irritable. I feel mad at the world...but I do feel grateful for all of my blessings and all that is good with...

Do you believe that it's natural for a man to date more than 1 woman at a time?

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 20 Sep 12

I belive that it is natural for a man to have more than one woman at a time, and I put this discussion under the Bible interest group because the Bible is where I got this idea from. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not...

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 20 Sep 12

A favorite TV show of mine may be going off of the air due to mismanagement, and I feel very sad right now, really, and I should not feel this way, but I do. See, I was just reading online where a new head honcho has been...

Do you believe in "energy vampires", people who seem to use YOUR energy?

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 3 Sep 12

I think that I have discussed this before, but I want to talk about it again because I find that I encounter this type of thing A LOT. Have you ever been around people that seem to come around you feeling all depressed and so you...

Confession, I'm an e-mail HOARDER.

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 1 Sep 12

Yes, that's right, I HOARD my e-mails. I have 3 e-mail accounts, and all of them have e-mails numbering in the 10's of thousands. My aol mailbox ALONE has about 35,000 e-mails in it. Hey, don't judge me, I bet if you invited me...

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 31 Aug 12

Is it just me, or has Nikki arrived back on the scene looking much slimmer than she did when she went away a little while ago? She looks good though. I loved the blouse that she had on today, white with long leather cuffs, so...

Should I let him go or tough it out??

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 27 Aug 12

I am in love with my best friend, and we are still strictly FRIENDS at this point. I would say that he is in love with me, HOWEVER he and I are not together for a few reasons, mainly because neither one of us is ready. For one, we...

HomeBase @HomeBase (1104) • United States 24 Aug 12

Uuuggh, it is so much work, this being in love. I have heard some say that being in love should not be "work", but I disagree, I think that to get the best out of anything in life that is worthwhile, one must work at it, and the...
