Tisha Hi, Arunima! Long time no hear. Lol. I've been busy since the new year started. Things are good for me here at home, but I don't want to get ahead of myself. I've got a lot on my plate, too, working from home on my freelance business among other...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (181717) • United States 8 Apr

My husband's friend stopped by to see him yesterday and found him in good spirits. When I spoke to my hubby last night, he said that someone actually responded to his call light in an hour. Usually it's 2-3x longer. I will get...

Affirmations For the New Year

celticeagle @celticeagle (168256) • Boise, Idaho 15 Dec 23

I want to feel more positive daily. I am going to start saying some affirmations each morning when I get up. I have written them down but need to make them more accessible I think. So, what do you think of them so far? I am...

Tisha I've been doing affirmations for years. I've learned to do them in therapy. Wouldn't be able to function if I didn't do them regularly... But it's a good idea to put out there for those who don't know.

A Post Before Shutting Down The Laptop.

Tammy @tammys85 (30134) • Baltimore, Maryland 21 Aug 23

Hey there, everyone. I've been marking tasks off my to-do list, and posting on MyLot is one of those tasks, so why not complete the list? I got started on my work a little after 11am, which is later than I had hoped (as I wanted...

Tisha I like how you hold yourself accountable here. It's through your posts here that I began to try to do the same. Unfortunately, I haven't been consistent. But now I've been doing much better. The key word is "try". Trying ain't gonna get it done. I've learned...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (181717) • United States 1 Jul 23

What in the world happened to June? It seemed like it just flew by. Happy Canada Day to my Canadian friends! We've been talking about Chinese food for a week now; so I think that's what we'll be having for lunch today....

Tisha June did fly by. But it's always like that, June being the busiest month of the year for me... I have no idea what I ate yesterday. Can hardly remember what I ate today. Lol

Hey There, Everyone.

Tammy @tammys85 (30134) • Baltimore, Maryland 10 Apr 23

It’s a little after 4 pm on my end, and I’m just getting started on today’s tasks. I had therapy this morning, and then I was taking some time for myself, so I’m slightly behind on things. But that’s okay. Today, I’m proofreading...

Tisha I'm glad to see that you're doing better than you were before with your anxiety. I can definitely relate. What amazes me is that even though you may be going through with your mental illness, you still tend be pretty consistent here on this platform. I have...

Day 255 (Psalms 127:1-5) (A Song of Ascents. Of Solomon.) Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it. Unless the LORD guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. It is vain for you to rise up early,...

Tisha @just4him Wow! That's some good daily bread from the Word. I've always felt that my child is a blessing to me. My daughter gives me the light to push on in this dark world. I work hard to be a positive role model for her. Even though my parents may have...

Tisha @rakski Well, hello "sleep deprived". Welcome! Sorry to hear that you're sick. I'm just getting over a head cold myself. Went to the doctor's to make sure that I don't have CoVid (I'm good). I'm feeling much better after being sick for about a week......

When do you know it is time to give up on a site or app?

snowy @snowy22315 (182207) • United States 14 Mar 23

I have one app that I have been using probably since about 2010. It used to be really good, and I have made some nice cash on there from time to time, but now just seems to be flat, and I haven't been able to cash out for 6...

Tisha It's sometimes hard to let go. I understand that, but I agree with the others that said it's time. Six months is a long time to not be getting anything from an app that's supposed to pay out. Personally, I don't like doing surveys. I stopped doing them a...

My review of Bright Idea 20 years ago on Epinions. Have you written on "lesser" writing sites? Do you still feel "dirty"?

The Horse @TheHorse (220260) • Walnut Creek, California 30 Jul 22

As some of you know, I wrote for awhile on a site called Bubblews. I stumbled on the site when Epinions was dying, and always felt "dirty" when I wrote on Bubblews. It was a terrible site. I also wrote for a spell on Bright Idea,...

Courtney Dutton @MommyOfEli2013 (84226) • Rupert, Idaho 5 Aug 22

I read earlier in a Facebook group that I am part of for picky eaters that someone was diagnosed with autism and ADHD while being an extremely picky eater. I never thought of picky eating being a part of autism. My husband...

Tisha My daughter is autistic and I suffer from bi-polar disorder. So I understand what you're going through. I was a picky eater as well when I was growing up but I did kind of outgrow it. As for the depression, I have my ups and downs as well. Fortunately, my...

Tisha I don't like to do too much shopping on Fridays. I only shop that day if I forgot something needed during the week. Usually I don't like to do too much shopping on the weekends, either, because how busy it can be especially now during the holiday time. But I...

Tina Dalasinski @Tina30219 (82066) • Onaway, Michigan 16 Nov 19

I am so excited and a little nervous I have a focus group from 12 to 12:30 this afternoon and the best part is I will earn $30 in amazon from doing it. I hope to get more. Have you ever done focus groups before?

Tisha Yes, I've done focus groups. They're a good way to get a little bit of extra cash. It's strange that they didn't tell you what the group was going be focused on, though. The topic is usually how you get chosen for the group. I've done focus groups for as...
