Betsy Witkowski I definitely believe it is happening. As you said, the seasons have changed. I live in New England & our winters have been very mild compared to when I was young. We used to get tons of snow & cold weather. One day in January I was outside with just a tshirt...

~Love Rottweilers But Afraid of Cats!~

Jennifer @LovingMyBabies (85288) • Valdosta, Georgia 14 Apr 17

Yes it's true! I am scared of cats but I have a Rottweiler and I have always loved these big babies. Most people find that weird. Lol Well...I found one cat I am actually not afraid of! Her name is Pebbles-my children named her...

Betsy Witkowski I was allergic to cats as a child but grew out of it. Because of that, I never liked cats. In my 20's, my husband worked nights & we weren't allowed to have a dog at our apartment but they allowed cats. I hated being alone all night & suggested we try getting...

Trying To Break a Bad Habit

MARILYN @Marilynda1225 (82721) • United States 13 Apr 17

Breaking a bad habit can be hard. Do you have any bad habits you're trying to break? My bad habit is this....I love to read but when I'm reading I love to snack. It's just mindless eating and it can be anything from chips to baby...

Betsy Witkowski When I used to be an avid reader, I got so caught up in my reading that I'd forget to eat. Definitely snacking is one of my bad habits while watching t.v. I don't pay attention to how much I'm eating.

If you found $100 in a parking lot, how would you react?

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45494) • United States 12 Apr 17

Let's say you are in Walmart's parking lot (substitute any store you like!) getting ready to go shopping and out of the corner of your eye you spot money on the ground. You pick it up and are shocked that it is a $100 bill. You...

Betsy Witkowski If I saw it fall from someone's pocket, I'd tell them they dropped it. But if noone was around, I'd probably keep it. I don't think that anyone who loses cash expects they will get it back. I was robbed once & reported it to the police, they told me the items...

When You Peel and Chop Vegetables

hereandthere @hereandthere (45645) • Philippines 12 Apr 17

When I peel and chop vegetables, I start with the ones that go in the pot or pan first. For example, I will peel and chop the carrots and potatoes first. While they're cooking, then I will prepare the greens (either pechay or...

Betsy Witkowski I try to be organized & cut things uniform but after awhile I just want to get it done like you said. I hate cutting & peeling veges, it takes me forever.

It worked! It really worked!!

Laurel (L_B) @Happy2BeMe (99380) • Canada 13 Apr 17

Thank you @MorleyHunt for the great suggestion. I had heard about this lots of times but always laughed it off. It just didn't seem to make sense and I couldn't figure out how it would work anyways. Well last night before I went...

Betsy Witkowski I remember my mom rubbing that on my chest when I was a child & had a cold. It did help with coughing & congestion. I just never liked the smell.

Any regrets?

Toni @toniganzon (72281) • Philippines 12 Apr 17

Have you ever read a not so short but not too long discussion and then regret doing so? I thought it was going to be an interesting one but then when I came to the end of the discussion, I felt like I have wasted my time reading...

Betsy Witkowski I have read some discussions that I honestly had nothing to comment on. I also don't like things if I truly didn't. Leaving a generic comment just to comment seems pointless. If I can't add to the discussion, why bother.

Orange sheep? What next?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (339644) • Rockingham, Australia 12 Apr 17

Following musings about having Herc on our coat-of-arms when we get round to designing one, I remembered a photo I had of some orange sheep and thought I'd share it. We saw them up near Hadrian's Wall in Scotland when we were...

Betsy Witkowski That is really interesting & quite ingenious of the owners. I guess they must have had a big problem with their sheep being stolen to come up with that solution.

Great! Now my ghost is smoking.

flpoolbum @flpoolbum (2978) • United States 13 Apr 17

I love my apartment. It's an old building, a 104 year old duplex. I knew that a previous tenant, a member of my landlord's (my niece and her Dad) family was violently murdered in the apartment. I've seen him before. I had...

Is It About The Earnings Or just For Social Fun?

Sam Ech @Sambriel (2243) 13 Apr 17

I have been seeing some strange things on here lately that got me thinking and really concern, these days some Mylotters keeping talking about the earnings they stand to gain and less about the fun that would keep this unique site...

Betsy Witkowski I am new to My Lot & I admit I joined because I saw it as a way to make a little extra money. Now that I've written a few blogs & read some, I am enjoying the site. So I'd have to say both.

Give me my money back!

The Invisible Man @TheInvisibleMan (17597) 10 Apr 17

Have you ever experienced any situation where you felt like having your money back? I usually feel it when I go to the movies and watch a bad movie. It's a very bad situation because there is a feeling of lost...

Betsy Witkowski I have felt this way many times. When appropriate, I will ask for my money back. For instance, when you buy a product that doesn't work the way it's supposed to or breaks after using it once. I usually keep my receipts for at least a week until I have a chance...

Just For Fun - Some Things I don't Like About Getting Old.

Jabo @jaboUK (64354) • United Kingdom 11 Apr 17

I know you may think me antique, have not got my former physique, but if you are so bold as to tell me I'm old I'll think it a damn awful cheek. As old age creeps in I have fears that stiffness and aches will bring...

If you see an error such as a typo/spelling error on myLot what do you do?

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45494) • United States 6 Apr 17

Most humans make errors, and since I assume the majority of myLot members are human, we make mistakes, it's a given. It may not happen often, but when it does, it does - it is not the end of the world as we know it. I have...

Betsy Witkowski I personally would not point out a typo or spelling error. Spelling & grammar are one of my pet peeves & I can't help but notice them. We don't know what other people's backgrounds are or their education level. I'd just read the post & move on.
