What activities prevent you from being active with myLot these days?

I've been missing a lot of discussions here at myLot and quite sad for this. I've not been starting new topic too and in fact, this my first topic for this year. I've been very busy with my regular job and can't even stay longer than 15 minutes here. That somehow saddens me but can't do anything because my regular job should be my priority. Sorry to my friends if you don't see me much of me in your discussions. How about you, what other activities are preoccupying most of your time that you can't stay longer here?

Hi there! I have joined other sites last year and that kept me from posting here in mylot. I have been addicted to my new found site. But I don't want to leave mylot and that's for sure so I'm trying to manage my time so I can work on both sites. They are both good so I will be maintaining them for my earning sites. It's a good thing that you have a regular job as your priority. If I'm you I would be really happy but still, I'd like to visit mylot once in a while. I love this site and the community. Ciao!

Your new found site must be so satisfying my dear! It is hard to maintain more than one site if you have regular job like me, but I really am enjoying so I do try joining good sites like mylot and others. I wish you the best in all your online activities and out! Thanks for sharing!

Since summertime, I haven't had internet at home. That is what limited my activity on mylot the most. I just got internet back at home a couple days ago and I already and getting back in the swing of things. Before my internet quit working, the thing that limited my posting the most was that I wasn't finding topics I wanted to respond to and was having a hard time coming up with new topics of my own to start.

If it is internet problem that is hindering your online activities that is really very unfortunate. I do get crazy if my internet connection has problem. A day without internet is a boring day. I hope your problem get fixed soon. Have a nice day!

For the last few months I could only get online at the library, which was only like once a week or so. Now, I do have internet at home! So I can now post on mylot a lot more and do all the other things that I have missed during all that time without internet.

Hi friend, good to see you again. We miss you here. Well, for me, the activities which prevent me from being active here sometimes are writing articles to other sites and going out with friends. Lol. I have found life now outside home. I have a new Filipina friend who can drive so she will just pick me up in the house and go around the city the whole day hahaha... when I arrived I am tired so, I can't log in. And there are times that I am busy writing articles to other sites. But I see to it that I can be here at least 4-5 times a week. Happy working..

I know what you mean my friend, you must give priority to your bread and butter,, hahaha,,, well, I am not so regular in CIAO but I was paid twice already in that site.. I will request another pay out at the end of this month.. heheh not big but at least I have something to take when I go around with my friend here. hahaha... But here in mylot, I always bear in mind that I have to reach my pay out here every month. That is why I have to log in. LOL...

My friend so happy to know you now have a outside life! Ha!ha!ha! If we were neighbors we certainly will go out together a lot of time! Good for you dear, it's nice to have a changes like that. I log in regularly but can't get to stay for long. I can't even go to Ciao! I've almost forsaken that site! I can't really set aside my regular job as that is where I get good income. Have a nice day!

Hi dear!! Even I'm missing mylot from last December.It was my cousins wedding which made me busy.Then I had to start my project for my degree.I'm still working on it,and it will take one more month to complete it.Then comes my final semester exams for another 2 weeks.Daily I'll be coming home around 6:00 pm then I'll be playing some games for relief and then dinner.After that we will watch TV then I'll go to sleep.This has become my daily routine.I hope I'll come back to mylot as soon as possible.I'm missing it a lot.When every I get mails that your friend has started a new discussion,it really reminds my mylotting days. Happy mylotting!! Keep smiling!!!

Hey there friend... Yes it seems that somehow activities or discussions here at mylot are slow. Priorities in ones day to day turn around have for most like me take mylotting to a chance spare minute that may be, over other activities that should not get neglected. I've tried to visit this site as much as I could but have also found less interesting topics to participate in. Perhaps some others may not have time to start a new discussion as you have. Nonetheless it would be sad to forsake the friends that one has gained and have supported you through time in this site, so I come in at least once a week to keep up. As long as you come in every now and then, I at least would understand. I am happy that your regular work has kept you satisfyingly busy. Mylot may be a great habit but it can be bent to accommodate your priorities. I'll see you around...happy mylotting (or something...hehehe)

Hi my friend! Happy to hear from you! Yes dear, new interesting topics are getting scarce these days. Maybe many others are busy with other activities. You are right, it is hard to forsake the good friends we have here at mylot. I cannot forsake myLot if only for my very good friends and that of course include you!

I understand your position salonga. Nothing prevents me from being actively participating here. I have all the free time in the world so I can come in here at any hour as I am not tied down to any job but only during the night where I have to supervise the running of my pub.

Work, work and work.... The start of 2009 was a very busy one. I have not posted everyday here in mylot and other sites. I just get to visit once in a while. I had to concentrate with work. Planning meetings, done reports and other school activities really stole my time. I still need to finish my Examination Plans, School Organization Elections and reports for this March, so I will try to be active this April since that will be a slow down for all school works. See you maam

Hi Salonga, I have noticed that you are not around much and was wondering what happened to you. Now only I came to know that you are busy with office work. I was also busy with work and my system was also down. Even now it is not working fully and in between work the windows explorer showing some error and getting closed. I have informed the computer engineers and hopefully they will come today and will do the necessary. I do hope you also will be able to active in mylot again. Thanks and regards.

For me, its just that I've got so many other things going on right now, that I can't get on here for too long, only a few minutes a day. This is the only day, that I've been able to respond to more than 5 discussions, its only because we're having bad weather and I'm stuck at home, I don't have anything else to do right now, so I thought maybe I should catch up on Mylot today.

Hi salonga, I was wondering where you went. But I guess your job must take the topmost importance and it should stay that way. I was recently off mylot too, because of a writing assignment. I had to complete it by a certain date, but did not manage to do so, even with less mylotting. So there were days when I totally concentrated on writing instead of mylotting. But whatever earns you more money should be the way to go.

Just like you my friend, my regular job is my priority. We in the agency is even starting some new system in our work process and yours truly is being assigned to handle the supervision. So that makes me too busy and almost forgot about posting.

Last December I was not able to login because I decided to enjoy my Christmas with my family back in the provinces. It was worth the while that I enjoyed my family with them. When I returned back to work I tried to get in as regular as I could but I think my offline work also got in the way and prevented me to be here like I used to. I really think that it will take me some time to really return like I used to be.

Hi salonga! It is always so wonderful to see you even if it is only for a few minutes! It is ok that you don't have time sometimes! We understand! I wish that I had a job to keep me busy sometimes! I kind of miss being able to have my crazy schedule the way it used to be! Unfortunately, I have too much time to be able to be here, but no money to be able to spend! So you do what you need to do and come back when you have the time. Your friends will understand. I know that I do!

Hi Opal dear, I am so pleased to hear from you! Thanks a lot for your kind understanding! Well I understand your situation but knowing your good writing skills, you can also do writing jobs for Associated Content or Reviewstream. If you are not yet doing that, then it is about time as they are giving good pay. Have a nice day!
