I'm A Some-timer (sometimes I'm here and sometimes I'm not)

Happy Wednesday Everyone! we have sunshine, blue skies and gorgeous white fluffy clouds in the sky. Quite a difference from other states that will be getting hit with a hurricane. I hope and pray everyone there is safe. Another morning that flew by. I am making a beef stew for dinner but was short a few ingredients (fresh carrots and onions) so I put in a small grocery order for delivery. It came on time and I my stew is now happily simmering in my slow-cooker. Lately it seems as if I can't sit here and myLot for any length of time. I used to be able to myLot for hours, chat and enjoy conversations. Now it seems I come here and something interrupts or distracts me from the computer. I'm starting to feel like a jack-in-the box with all the popping up and down I do. My apologies if it takes me awhile to respond. Maybe I've just lost my ability to manage my time better. My daughter will be taking her lunch break in a few minutes (another distraction) but I did want to pop on and say hi before this Wednesday totally disappears.

I keep saying I need a day off but here I am. A great day here with nice cool weather. Time to start cooking in the slow cooker soon.

@Marilynda1225 Every day is slow cooker day for me especially during the winter. I have many recipes I want to try out soon. I love this weather.

It's also a sunny day here. Still hot but humidity not so high. I had my favorite sashimi for lunch today. Have a nice day.

Having your favorite for lunch today must have made the day even better

I don't know what's happening lately. My whole daily routine seems to be off but I'm hoping to be able to get back on track. I miss my coffee time here

It happens to me too. Sometimes I devote too much time here and sometimes I am too busy with work that I hardly open mylot or just read posts and notifications and close it. I don't know if it's a distraction or a lack of time.

That's what I'm trying to figure out if it's being distracted or just lack of time. I miss the time I spend here and hopefully my daily routine will get back to normal. Hope you're having a good day

Just do what you can and enjoy the new place. Moving is exhausting.

Distractions heppen to all of us... And, I believe all of us just spend what time we can on myLot. You'll get back to us when and as you have time in your busy schedule. I hope you have a very nice day.

My day went well but flew by. Wish I could get back into my old routine and spend more time here especially when I have my morning coffee. Hope your day went well. Was today the day for your allergy appointment?

@Marilynda1225 Every day seems to fly by anymore... Yes, allergist appointment today. We spent the day there and I got my shot. We got home, ate and both of us fell asleep.

I am pulled many directions as well. We get here when we can. I may have to wait one more week for fall food.

Sometimes these sort of things happen. Things change. Hope you enjoyed some time with your daughter.

I have the same problem as @PhredWreck, my right eye developed myopia, the left has not changed. I had new eyeglasses made the past month of March, but I cannot adapt to them, they give me headaches. I have to give up, it's the age.

Your stew sounds delicious! I'm easily distracted. I have to really focus and make myself stick to one task at a time. That must be the reason I have so many unfinished projects around here!

That's me!!!! I start so many things and some I finish and others I leave unfinished. Now if only my body could keep up with all the things my mind wants to do I'd be happy

I guess I'm a some-timer too... sometimes I just don't feel like interacting here.

I have horrible attention span troubles that way. I can never concentrate on anything. I’m also hyper and have a lot of housework and the baby to keep up with so I don’t sit much unless I’m holding the baby while she sleeps.

I'm a some-timer as well. Your beef stew sounds good. I may make some this weekend. It was a pretty day here, picture perfect. High 68 and low humidity. We'll be getting rain from what is left of Ian over the weekend.
