Well it seems I have been missed by a lot of my old timer friends here. I am still around doing all my gardening etc. Been baking and canning things as well. I do not get on as often due to a problem with trolls awhile back. Maybe soon I can start back being a "regular" here posting etc. But for now I do log in often and do read all the emails of discussions etc. Just not starting many myself and responding to very few. I have not made payout in a few months from being absent from here. So, how long have the longest been that you stayed away from posting etc on myLot? HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I only get a few email notices and other than that I don't even bring up mylot much less try to start any discussions. Just like I was one to start them anyway huh? hahahaha It has also been a few months since I made payout but it usually took me a couple of months just to reach the 10.00. The few emails I do get if I can post anything of interest to them I will reply.

It's very good to have you back, even if for awhile! My garden is long gone but I got a lot of green beans and found out I need more peas next year. I wonder why myLot doesn't devote some time to troll control. It would certainly be a more productive place without such destructive people. Hope you and yours are doing well!

I had a feeling that's why you haven't been around much lately...trolls. I have no clue the longest I've been away from here but seems noone missed me cause I only got emails from 2 of my friends here and no PMs from anyone.

There you are Grandpa Bob! I was wondering where you disappeared to! It appears your daughter has gone MIA as well. Hope all is well with you and the rest of your family! To answer your question the longest I stayed away from mylot was probably a couple of weeks. Though that was back when I was new to the site. Now I can't seem to get away from it without logging in daily. That is, so long as my connection and computer aren't giving me any trouble. Hopefully whatever problems you were having are gone now. Happy mylotting!

Hi there gramps, great to see your smiling face back on here. I remember you getting frustrated with the trolls a while back and announcing that you were going to make yourself scarcer on here. Looks like you got a lot accomplished in your time away! The longest I was away....wasn't really away but spent very little time on here when taking care of my mom in her final months. I think it took me months to reach payout. I got on here each nite before going to bed and read thru and maybe responded to a few but really wasn't into it. Anyway....hope to see you more often on here. Don't let the silly little trolls win. ok?

Well hello Grandpa Bob, its nice to hear from you again. It sounds like you've been busy in your garden. I haven't been able to get on here as often either, life just got really busy the last few months and I don't get a chance to get on here much anymore. I haven't reached payout for about 4 months now, its been going really slow. I do read all the discussions and if I feel I have a comment to make I make it. I'd say about 4 mos. is the longest for me.

I am the same way GB, I don't MyLot as much as I used to either. I have started getting away from the computer and doing other things, that are more physical. I know I need the exercise for my body to stay healthy and functioning as good as possible. I talk walks in the evenings, I go to bible study on Wednesdays, so I am making myself a little more useful. I don't garden that much I do plant a little during the spring and summer months, nothing to brag about. So whenever I can catch a post from you it is very pleasing to me. Stay Safe.

Even at my busiest, I make it in almost every day. With the exception of when I go on vacation and have no access to a computer.

Hello Grandpa Bob. welcome back to mylot as a regular mylotter. I was wondering how come I did not see much of Bob here. Now I see that you were busy with your fruit farming. Well, I was inactive during my summer vacation. It seems that I am more active when I start to work on campus, but not when summer and winter vacations come, a time for my family together. Happy posting, Bob.
