Today I'm bored. I just can't get into the discussions here. I think maybe I'm just restless with spring fever. The weather has been gorgeous and here I am stuck inside the office building all day at work. So my friends, how are you today? Are you ok? Or do you find yourself a little bored as well?

Yep, I'm bored. But I don't feel like doing anything different. There really isn't anything for me to do right this minute. Ugh, I'm annoyed with myself for letting being bored bother me. Hmmm, well that gives me something to do I guess...I don't want to watch TV, but tomorrow I should get a Netflix in my mail. Boy I hope so.

I think I'll be getting pay back for being bored. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday next week I have so many appointments. iCK.

I know what you mean hon. I'm bored out of my mind too. It's raining and cold here so I can't even go outside and go for my walks. And I've got the 'brain freeze' thing going on again, so I can't think up good responses or discussions today either. LOL

Sounds like we are about in the same boat! I've had lots going on in life and finding it hard to concentrate to do any of my freelance writing, let alone spend a great deal of time here at mylot, but I do check in every day! Oh, and the rain is back here now so it must be nice where you are? Did you send this rain? lol

Looks like we have the same weather now. This wants to hang around here. I hate days and days of cold and rain. At least the temperature isn't bad here! It just feels colder because of the dampness!

i find that mylot is not what it used to be. i find the discussions not as interesting as they used to be in here. i find the discussions are not what they used to be and i just cant get into them either.

I totally agree with you. I find myself spending as much time reading lame discussions that are totally off the wall as much as finally finding something interesting and worthwhile to respond to. I think mylot.com needs to find some moderators and get the lame stuff off here instead of paying them to continue and running off good members.

Only when it comes to writing for money!!! I get writers block so bad! But tonight, a huge rain storm with probably snow is due in (southern california..yes, you read that right) and to last the full weekend with 2-3 inches of rain, take a break on Monday and a second storm comes in on Tues - Wed.

Ewww, coffeebreak--your weather sounds awful. We have rain today and through the weekend (of course). I'm just hoping that NEXT weekend is nice weather as we are having my grandson's second birthday party at our house. Would be nice to get outdoors for a bit and not be holed up inside!!

Yeah! someone else in southern California. I moved off the mountain from Running Springs a little over 4 years ago when my husband passed away , so I don't miss the snow from there. I see it on the mountain tops from here and it is so pretty . I do miss sitting in front of the fireplace in the evening watching T.V. or reading, but I light a bunch of candles while watching T.V. now and am satisfied. We do need the moisture and I am sure the ski resorts will welcome the snow. I won't be watering my potted plants for a while anyway.

It happens once in a while. I am just glad to have a few minutes to get here these days. Newborns keep you jumping. I treasure each moment, but miss my pals here. No time to really be bored.

Nice that you are having good weather. It is a little cold here right now. I guess it could be worse though so I won't complain. I get really bored quite easily these days and can't seem to get into mylotting. I try and do at least one or two responses but even that has been difficult lately. I have lost my motivation to post here in mylot and don't know how to get it back. I kep reading the emails I get from mylot about my friends discussions and I read the discussions and can't get into responding to very many of them. So I have tried to not even log into mylot for a few days thinking that maybe then I will come back and get motivated again but it seems to make it even harder. I don't know why I can't get into it. Alrighty then, talk to you later my friend, Have a good mylotting day, Chris

Hi there Chris! I'm finding a lot of the discussions these days to be just plain old boring! I think a lot of it really is and it is taking more and more effort to find discussions of interest to respond to. Maybe you can add more interests? Or take a longer break and come back? I know I have to take breaks often or else I'm totally burnt out! I also think the earnings has gone down to the point where you can hardly make a buck a day and that pretty much blows the light out of my fire here with incentive to be here much.

I have been very depressed lately and I am just now getting over it, I try to write a story everyday and on one of the days I was just too down to do it.

Yep, a boring day here too. I have work to do, but really not in the right frame of mind to do it! I need to win the lottery....this working for a living is really cutting into my personal time! LOL

Tell me about it! A lottery win would be so nice right now. Pay off all the bills and just concentrate on my freelance writing that I enjoy doing! And no alarm clocks and working at my own pace. Wooohooo, that's the life!

I've been feeling like that over the past few days, mind you my son hasn't been well, so I've had my hands full. I feel ok today though, maybe because the weather is picking up a bit. I am so tired of the cold!

Well it is a dreary day here today, lots of rain, with more in forcast for tonight and tomorrow, Sunday--etc. Next week isn't looking much better either. I want spring and just those spring showers, not the rain that last all day and night for days on end! Whahahaa!

today is my first whole day with my new computer so I am not bored. I am finding the difference between Windows XP and Vista. As a very Senior citizen I am not real quick to adjusting to anything new, but I persist. I do so much with my PC that I am lost if I can't get online. I went for my required 30 minute walk and wasn't going to start the PC again, but I am addicted. Instead of doing all my credits for traffic exchanges, I think I will play some free slots or go to the POGO site for some friendly chat. so keep well all friends.

Awesome! Sounds like you are adjusting well to your new computer! I didn't have any trouble with Vista but my hubby hated it and put XP back on his new computer...lol. I guess we all have our preferences! Have fun with your new computer!
