Feels like accomplishment... I need to stretch myself and keep moving.

I have spent a little more than an hour here on Mylot. And I knocked off all my notifciations.
I kept my laptop on the counter next to my kitchen so that I could cook and mylot simultaneously. I was not in a mood to cook but I had to.
Mylotting kept me entertained and distracted and my dinner is ready I also kept playing some good melodies from 70s Bollywood songs on YouTube. That's what I do when I find any chore boring and monotonous. A little distraction and music help. Now it feels like an accomplishment...Dinner is ready and the notifications are done
Now I feel that I should take a break from the screen for a while. I need to stretch myself and keep moving. It is 5:30 PM here and I will just take a short walk on terrace in fresh air, bring the clothes from the clothesline and fold them.
I will try to come back here once more before I call it a day and read some of your posts and respond to them,
Bye for now. Take care Catch you later

@cabuyogty Only if we read and respond to others here, they will do it for us. We earn as a community and we have to help each other.

@arunima25 mylot is one of the things which helps me to relax after being stressful at the work.

Yes, I could go for slow 20 minutes stroll and that helped. Mylot is for the free time that we get in between our offline job. Peep in whenever you can. I do the same. I am missing in action here on busy days.

@sjvg1976 I agree to that. I too feel good after some bit of mylotting. Sometimes helps me cheer up if I am feeling low about something

@arunima25 My husband needs physiotherapy and I went with him, just in case he needed some help. Then we had to stop at the grocery store for the weekly shopping.

It's better to stay updated with notfications. I try to do the same but then it does not happen that way all the time.
What's keeping you away from home?

How could you cook dinner, listen to music on YouTube and write on mylot? You are amazing.

@arunima25 It is interesting to hear that you could write on myLot, when music is being played. I find it difficult to concentrate if music is going on and I am writing on myLot. I could either listen to music or could write here.

I had a simple dinner of potato capsicum sabji and chapati. When the sabji is being cooked on sim flame and just needs a few stirring in between, I can be on mylot. And there is always some music going on in my background. I love music.

@dpk262006 My husband feels the same way. But I need music all the time. Only when I am in online sessions, I switch it off. Else cooking, cleaning, reading, artwork or online work, Music is always there.

Music helps with everything. A stroll for 20 minutes later helped me refresh myself.

I felt good after that. We all have that NO MOOD day and still we have to do things. Music and little mylotting help.

I just try to be regular here. Some days I am more active but other days, it might be just for few minutes.
