Have you reached your totally arbitrary MyLot financial goal for October 2019?

I just realized that it's October 30--the month is about to end. It's time for me to examine my MyLot earnings and see if I am on track. As I write, I am troubled by turbulence on my Lear jet. I thought the ride to Paris would be smooth, but no. My life is always in flux. As I look a my MyLot earnings, I realize that they are boringly "normal." I will make my "typical" goal, but I will not have a spectacular month. For perhaps the first time, I am not setting any goals on MyLot this month. I am more concerned with finding some smooth air. Have you set a MyLot goal for this month? If you're visiting your flat in Paris, can you visit me, so we can discuss MyLot? There is a Cafe on Rue Mouffetard that I favor. I will attach a song that I wrote but didn't get credit for. It expresses my sadness right now. I hope you enjoy it.
A real funny parody of the song "Everyday I have the blues. I do not own the music or the photos used in this video. No copyright infringement intended. I do...

I could do that if I became a cereal poster. But I made a huge bowl of my last cereal for Horse Jr. the other day.

@NJChicaa Perhaps I will. I will get more pretend Honey Nut Cheerios. Those are his favorite (and one of mine too).

Meh, I've set a "fluctuating" goal this month. I'd like to earn more since mylot will help me buy some supplies for gifts.

@TheHorse Soap. I am making soap for friends as part of their Christmas. Going to buy them something else to go with it, not sure what though. I saw a set of small jenga blocks at the dollar tree today and thought about getting it, gluing them together and making a basket of sorts.

Your voice is definitely better.. words are easier to understand...your pronunciations are tougher to follow.

@TheHorse The singer...your voice is fuller and velvety ... but pronunciations...may be my English is bad so I cannot follow...but there was considerable clarity in words this singer used, you let the words glide...whereas he stressed the words...Don't know ... can't describe...not always...and gliding is better no doubt..sounds musical. But for those who are non native English speakers...it is tough.

Suddenly yesterday I decided I wanted to reach $5. Last time I reached it was end of July. Yesterday I made .48 cents today .44. So I have .90 cents to go. I am hopeful.

@thehorse I've been troubled by flatulence rather than by turbulence tonight. Must change my diet. I hate it when fellow passengers become flatulent on a long flight, that's why I too only travel by private jet now. Maybe we could meet for lunch in the Argentine restaurant half way along Rue Mouffetard and compare notes.

How can one be "troubled" by "flatulence"? That seems like an oxymoron.

@TheHorse I take your point. What I mean is that when someone else lets rip in finer style than my own I get envious.

@xFiacre A slighty older friend told me that you should never fully trust a pharte when you are over 55-years-old. However, I enjoy pharting in elevators, check-out lines, stair wells, and during first dates.

My Lear Jet is my favorite plane to fly, because it is more fuel-efficient than my older Boeing 727.

Yeah I will meet you at the cafe if they let me in with my UK passport. I will ask Boris to join us and explain everything. He may bring Teresa if they can play nicely. I think my MyLot payout should cover the milk in the tea. We can fly back together as long as my passport is still valid.
