Hey all my friends, I will be offline for a few hours.

Hubby is scheduled for an out of town medical appointment. I have to drive him, so I will be off a while. I will still always try to stay in touch with my friends. I know we have a lot to discuss with the MyLot changes.I do not...

Thoroughrob Good luck with the appointment. I am so disappointed in the changes. I will check it out and decide if I will stay or go, but definitely will not be here as often.

celticeagle @celticeagle (168369) • Boise, Idaho 30 Apr 13

In the alert this morning about the changes here on Mylot they mentioned that if money was the reason for being here on Mylot that there were many other places on the internet where we could make $10 a month. So does anyone know...

Mother's Day is around the corner and I have no idea what to get my mother. What do you get a mom who has everything? Any suggestions would be so appreciated.

Patsie Hatley @Hatley (163776) • Garden Grove, California 28 Apr 13

I really think the owners are pushing it with some people they accept here or else they need to train the care givers to have more patience.This poor woman who has some sort of motor control nerve problems that make it almost...

Thoroughrob It is sad to see someone be impatient with someone that is trying, and knows what is going on. It is abuse. If she uses an agency, they should be reported to the agency. I have had a few aides that work with my son. A couple, I don't want back. Right now, I...

Trusting a Mylotter?

kenshin2143 @kenshin2143 (1880) • Philippines 14 Apr 13

I am just curious on how trustful could one mylotter be to his/her fellow mylotter who has many posts here and having a high ranking account. Let's say a certain member here who have lots of posts and is a high ranking member...

Thoroughrob I would not trust a fellow Mylotter. There are a few here, that I talk to other than here, and if I knew they were really in trouble, I might try to help. I would not lend them money, but might send them a gift card or something to try and help them, but only...

firecracker @sacmom (14192) • United States 13 Apr 13

Thoroughrob It really sounds like no one there knows what is going on. I am sorry they gave you such a run around. I guess you found out how much you could trust what they tell you. That is bad for business all the way around.

Thoroughrob I don't think she is right. I would think it is the other way around, especially if you use lots of different people. They all have different ways of doing things.

It was hard at first, constant cravings even with 4 weeks of patches. But my dr was happy when I told him I had quit when I saw him 2 weeks ago. I still have to let him know that it's been 2 months now. It was difficult, and...

Thoroughrob This is happening more and more. Maybe it is because he is a guy, and looked like he knew what he is doing. I hope he is feeling better now. I know a lot of people that giving blood affects that way.

Do You Still Have Cable TV?

elmiko @elmiko (6630) • United States 8 Apr 13

Thoroughrob I do have it, but have been thinking about changing. I am just not sure what the best choice would be to cut our bills down and still get to watch what we want. I am not a tech person, and it is kind of confusing.

Thoroughrob Sometimes it is not the person, it is the vehicle. My son bought a truck, from a car lot, and was getting stopped for lots of things. Come to find out that it was a suspected vehicle for drugs and the other owner traded it in.
