Have you set your totally arbitrary MyLot goal for March 2023?

Here I sit with freezing toes, watching the rain come down. Winter has returned. It's in the 40s F here (under 10 C), and the cold air made me glance at my computer clock, with the date underneath. It's already March 28, which means I had better set my totally arbitrary MyLot goal for this month. Due to the flakiness of my friend, the Day Care provider, I have had some extra morning time to MyLot and work on my book. Therefore I will have a good month on MyLot. My conservative goal of XXXX.YYYY should be east to reach. But my aggressive goal of ZZZZ.AAAA is within reach if I am proactive over the next few mornings. After posting this, I will focus on hash. Hash is good. I like hash. Then I will cook up an egg. Yes, that's a set-up. How is your Tuesday shaping up? And most importantly, have you set your totally arbitrary MyLot goal for March 2023?

I´m desperatly mylotting trying to reach my third goal (I already reached the 2 first goals and will get paid). If I´m very lucky I might make enough money to buy a big steak with it. Now that I eat much less, I can cut it and eat 3 tiny juicy steaks, one every day

@TheHorse I also like it rare and dark in the outside. I make them with a cast iron skillet and heat it a lot. I love it very juicy. Almost mowing but not quite.

@marguicha Exactly. If a cow gave its life so we can eat, drink and be merry, we owe it to said cow to have them taste like cow, not just carbon.

I do the same with steak. I bought some nicely marbled but inexpensive steak the other day. I cook up some onion and other veggies in my fraying pan, with lots of soy or teriyaki sauce, then I add about 1/5 lb of steak at the end (rare but dark on the outside). It's yummy.

I've decided I'm going to try to get two cents more than you this month, pony... See if you can keep up... I had a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit by Jimmy Dean for breakfast but I'm hungry again now... I usually don't eat lunch until I wake up between 4 and 5 pm...

@TheHorse Jimmy Dean sandwiches are already prepared and then frozen. I just have to microwave them. When I make the sandwich from scratch, I fry the egg hard.

Somehow, in March, I've made 27¢. Mind you, I think those are American pennies so worth more I think I'll try to make 27¢ more before April. Still won't reach payment.

@jstory07 I am on an interesting cusp. I have published many "scholarly articles" and one book chapter. But I have never published an entire book. That would mean I am not a "slam dunk" for whoever might want to publish my book. I am a "high risk" investment. Kind of fun, in a way.

My Tuesday began as most Tuesdays do, and it continued to be a Tuesday right on through, and now it's a Tuesday afternoon and will soon be a Tuesday evening. I set my arbitrary goal early this month and may just meet it. Then again, it may take the last train to Clarksville and make a Monkee out of me.

My conservative goal of $30 Million is going great. I'm only $3.3090 short at this point and according to my calculations, there are still 90 days left in March, so I should just make it. My friends Cheech & Chong really like Hash, too. You have a lot in common with them.

Because my goal here is kind of a joke (and a way of poking fun at anybody who is concerned with what they make on MyLot, myself included), I just laugh if I don't achieve it. I am never disappointed. It is cool and cloudy here too. It did not rain on me on my drive home from work just now.

Missed it in the last two months. Well if I am active here, I might reach a double digit . Hope you can achieve your agressive goal

Is it really time again for the total arbitrary goal post? That went by quickly. But here we are, I hope everyone met the goals they wanted to meet. Every time you write about hash I think I am going to break down and have some. I haven't yet, because I know I will want to have it again, and again, and...well, you get the idea. Maybe this weekend. The more I think about it, the better it sounds.
