I Am Trying To Play Catchup Some

I have been busy again with things going on, and then my Stress Test yesterday that I was not able to be as active in here like I would have liked. Just was doing some things I really needed to get done as well as I have an Event with my Jerky business coming up this weekend as well.
But at the same time I was going thru and making sure all of the discussions my friends have started here are in a myLot folder so I can go in and respond back to them as I have time. Been going thru some of the older ones I had missed when I was not as active here right now. So if you are getting responses from me back on your older discussions, you now might know why.
So are you behind months when it comes to discussions that your friends have started? Do you have your own Folder set up in your Email to try and catch up? Or do you have your own seperate Email just for myLot? It does take a lot of extra time to do all of this, but I am sure it will be worth it as well.
Happy Thursday my Friends.

I know when I am behind, I usually go to the oldest messages first and work my way forward. It sounds like you do the newest ones first. Whatever works for you! Have a great week!!!

Hiya KH,
That is me at the moment too with Folders like you say. However I have about an hour on here sometimes less to fit everything in as I am working for my Husband as well so I find it really hard to fit time in sometimes a bit here a bit there in posting and all that.
Hope your Jerky thing goes well KH and you sell lot´s and I hope your Stress Test went well. I am not very good at that sometimes that stress thing it takes me a while to calm down. Not all Days are the same but I have had some very stressful Days just lately and I have taken time off altogether to pick up the pieces of my life. Besides my Hubby has had the Computer practically all Day happily making and remaking his websites.

Good luck Tina.xxx@KrauseHome (36445)

Thanks for the Well wishes. Due to the things going on in my life at this moment, I cancelled the event with my Jerky I was going to do. Not sure if I will get refunded back any of the money owed to me or not, but I felt it was best for now. I have other events and things coming up that should be worth it, but needed to take care of me.

I cannot answer all of my friends' discussions, but I try to read most of them. I do not keep them in a separate place. I have a lot of other places I receive e mail from as well. I have noticed that you are answering some of my older discussions. I hope that you get the results you need from your stress test. Is your event this weekend? I am trying to play catch up in another way with the things in my house. Have fun playing catch up.

Well, I cancelled the event I was supposed to do earlier today due to the results of the Stress test which I already posted about in another discussion, and will post more what I find out tomorrow. I do have a couple of other events lined up and will plan on doing them no matter what hopefully. Just was feeling so down Friday that I decided the Best thing was to take today easy after attending church and this is what I did.
As for your older discussions, yes, I am trying to catch up on some of the ones I have missed when I have time.

Ha Ha!! You posted this discussion three weeks ago!! I bet you're caught up by now! I'm so far behind that it's going to take me a week or two to get caught up thanks to my email being locked up due to a hacker getting in it. I've got about 70 discussions to catch up on and here I go! I hope you didn't have that many!

Actually, I usually just go through my inbox and respond to discussions as I get to them. Sometimes it does take a few days to get to them all, but usually not much longer. There were a few times that I was about three weeks behind because of trying to get caught up with school work, but that doesn't happen very often. I usually do my paid emails first then surveys then mylot. With mylot discussions, if someone has responded to me I will do those before other things otherwise discussions are the last thing I do. I finally have my inbox cleaned out again so now I can start over again! Happy Thursday!

I do have my emails filtered and though I do read and or respond where I can I usually do good about getting to them. There are times I have quite a bit to at least read to see if I can respond, I do not try to sweat it too much as I have been really busy lately.
I do have a folder of those I cannot respond to as I have no idea of the interest and or topic and who knows maybe one day my interest and or knowledge about the topic may be re-born.
I hope the results of your stress test come in soon and that nothing you need to worry about. Good luck with that.

I don't feel the need to answer every single discussion my friends start (though I did answer this one).

Hello Tina.
I know how it is to be busy. I actually have turned the emails from mylot off a long time ago as i get too many mails as it is on a daily basis to my yahoo account. I have just had an exam yesterday, i have to present my completed paper to the guidance teacher tomorrow, i have a wedding on sunday, and another exam on tuesday - so busy busy as a bee.

The hospital here is going to be calling me to make arrangements for me to take a sleep apnea test.
I have been thinking of starting a Mylot folder myself. Right now it all comes into my major email. Gets confusing. I may do that. It does take extra time but may be worth it to have it more organized.

I always read the discussions that muy friends start, but I don't respond to all of them, because there are some topics that I don't know much about and I am not really able to write about those topics. I have more than one email account, but I don't have a seperate email for MyLot. I receive the notifications from MyLot in the same email that my friends use when they write to me and I usually have a lot of new emails when I opened that email account. Sometimes I mark the emails that I want to reply to, but I don't have a seperate folder. Maybe a separate folder would be a good idea...

With all of the things that are going on in my life right now, there is no possible way that I can keep up even remotely with all of the discussions that my friends have started. So, instead of keeping a folder or anything like that, I just try to do what I can and I hope that they understand that I am going through an awful lot. I also know that I don't have the time to commit to starting my own discussions, so for the time being that is something that I am not doing.

I am playing catch up as well!
Even just responding to this discussion I am already (6 days) late. I have a separate email just for myLot, and I don't usually miss a lot of days, but I have been busy so there's about 60 notifications in my inbox that I still have to get to.

Hi Tina~
Yes. I did the same thing like you~ I will place all discussions in one folder named Mylot and every time I get here I will make sure to sign in to my email account first. Fro there I will pick the topic or any discussions which I think I can add points and know what to say. I will not answer to discussions which I did not know or not sure about it. There are thousands of discussions in my folder and I try to catch up with it now. But most of the time I will stuck at few discussions for a long conversations~

I used to have a folder but I don't anymore. If I can't keep up with myLot, I just miss out for that day. There is too much in life to stress about so I save my stress for things that are important, like bills and my health!
If I'm missing something in the cyber world that I don't have time for, that just means I'm busy living a real life!
You should look at it that way.

Happy Thurs.to u. Hope your event goes well this weekend. I don't usually get behind, hate it when i do.

I try to respond in a day or two. I don't have a seperate place for MyLot. I just get the notifications in my standard e-mail and answer them from that. If someone posts a lot, I may not respond to all of them and just pick one or two that interest me most. What is a Jerky and what kind of business is it? Whatever it is I hope you have a lot of success with it.

Stress Test -- for heart, is it not? Yes. it takes a lot of time to go thro all the responses and post our comments. I am not having a separate email id for this. I get nearly 40/50 mails every day and by the time I reply all of them it takes 3 hours and then I take rest. I have no other work. but being a lady u may have other house hold responsibilities towards children and others. take care. have a nice day.
