~A Secret I Have Been Keeping~

Jennifer @LovingMyBabies (85288) • Valdosta, Georgia 10 Aug 16

Very few people know about this. To be honest I am embarrassed about it. There are only 3 people total that know about this... I am not sure how to even say this because I don't want to be judged. No matter what your opinion is-if...

bounce58 I think a lot of people here already said/wrote it -- this is a blessing. I know that thinking about the future (or the baby's future) is scary, but I'm sure that as the days come, or as the baby grows you'll realize that it was all worth. I know life would...

Review: MyLot

Babygirlrae @carebear29 (31970) • Wausau, Wisconsin 27 Apr 16

All I have to say is I love MyLot! You make new friends and can say whatever is on your mind and so on. Yeah you make money and get paid but its all about the interacting you do. I love that you get a lot of support here no matter...

bounce58 I love it here too. Actually, I've been off about a week from here because ever since I came back, I've been spending too much time in here that I was neglecting some of my real work/job. I had to pause and do some work. The week is almost done, so I thought...

Are you a quiet person?

Lee Ka @kaka135 (14931) • Malaysia 16 Apr 16

I don't think I am a quiet person, though sometimes I wish I am. I think none of my friends think I am quiet as well. I might look like a quiet person, but most of my friends said I am talkative. Some told me I am like Molly in...

bounce58 I consider myself a quiet person. I don't talk much. I sometimes feel that it is better to 'do' than talk about things. And I feel that smart people don't need to exhaustingly talk about themselves, or what they're doing, or what they know. They just act on...

bounce58 I haven't but I could definitely see the financial advantage to that. I guess if you really have no choice, or intent on saving money, then go for it (Plus side: I'm thinking that you don't have to sign a lease agreement, so if it gets bad then you could...

Worn Out

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (317238) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 15 Apr 16

Today I feel like a worn out dishrag. Worn out and wrung out. I know this is grief. I just don't like being hit by it all at once. One moment I was laughing and the next I was a bucket of tears and right now I'm so depressed I...

bounce58 Same with you, my birthday is in July also. I'm making a birthday wish that I could be let off the tiny roller coaster as well -- I've come to realize that my troubles are nowhere near what you're going through. If I could be let off early, that'll be even...

How do you pinch pennies?

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (160978) • United States 15 Apr 16

We like the pennies we earn as well as those we pinch. I scrape the peanut butter from the jar to make one more sandwich, etc. I do not like to waste.That is just a small thing, though. Early in the morning, as soon as my husband...

Are you healthy?

Lee Ka @kaka135 (14931) • Malaysia 13 Apr 16

I don't think I am healthy, I guess it's because I am lacking of exercises and I used to sleep really late that have spoiled my health. I feel dizzy and nausea easily. But, whenever I went for medical check up, all the results are...

bounce58 I did get a check up last year. I don't normally do, but I went sometime in spring last year because I was going through an unhealthy-phase. I was sick all the time, and I also was not sleeping well. The doctor said I was fine. Although I was not feeling it,...

Like who you are

Sissy15 @sissy15 (12304) • United States 14 Apr 16

A life lesson I've learned along the way is it doesn't matter if everyone around you likes you if you don't like yourself. No one else's opinion matters as much as your own, you're the one living your life, and only you truly know...

bounce58 I'm still surrounded by people who put me down. And made me question how I perceived myself, which I thought was pretty darn good. Thanks for the reminder. Soon, I'll get to the day when they can't put me down any longer. When their...

Does business slow down or pick up with warmer weather?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 14 Apr 16

At my current job - business picks up exponentially when it is warm outside. It hit 70 today in Minnesota (I wore a t shirt outside today!) But I am not looking forward to returning tomorrow due to extreme business levels and...

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 14 Apr 16

Have you ever done this? Had your car professional detailed, or do you take care of it on your own? I was bored today so I went over to my dad's house - where has a ShopVac (A portable vaccuum type thing) and sadly it did not...

bounce58 After I bought my Pontiac G6 off craigslist, the first place I brought it to was a detail shop. I didn't look around, and I just went by google, and it led me to a semi-established placed where they did both inside and outside detailing. I think I paid much,...

Has MyLot been a tad quiet recently? Or am I in a cave?

The Horse @TheHorse (220289) • Walnut Creek, California 13 Apr 16

It seems MyLot has been a tad quiet the last few days. Or maybe I've just been too busy, and haven't been interacting as much as I usually do. I won't bore you with the details of my Monday and Tuesday (stuff like getting an exam...

bounce58 It does feel a little bit quiet. I usually click on my Follows' discussions, and Explore's Most Recent Discussions, and for the past few days, there were not too many new discussions. Even if I refreshed the page constantly.

bounce58 I'm not new, but I did respond to a newcomer today. It's exciting to introduce or welcome new members here, and think of how they will perceive the site. That aside from a little bit of earnings, this site is actually an avenue for self-expression.

Jennifer @LovingMyBabies (85288) • Valdosta, Georgia 13 Apr 16

As I told all of you earlier I was supposed to be meeting a new client this afternoon. Well, that did not happen. She told me she couldn't find the house and her GPS kept getting her lost. So she gave up and went back home. I am...

bounce58 I guess sometimes faith works in mysterious ways. Sometimes even thru a GPS which wouldn't show the right way. Or maybe it was timing. If she tries again tomorrow, then today may just have been not the right day.
