I have realized again in the past couple of days how frustrated I get when a project doesn't go right. We have a light switch in the bathroom that doesn't always work, so I wanted to replace it. I helped my Dad replace switches...

DanaMark When I went out to work on the grill, there was a large spider sitting in the middle of a web going across the steps of our deck. My first task was to get rid of that spider. I doused it with bug spray. A non-acrophobic person would probably just knock it down...

DanaMark Your cats were quite creative in finding their own litter box. That must have been quite a surprise. Good luck with getting the smell out.

I know it is a silly question, but I am just curious, I am at home I didn't work today. I work-part time, when ever they need me. I thought I would work all week but the Women I work for is a teacher, I take care of her Handicap...

DanaMark I wish those bigger hits would happen toward the end. When it happens right away, it is hard to quit and go home a winner. After driving a ways to get there (our takes about 50 minutes) we don't want to quit and go home right away. We want to have more "fun."...

DanaMark It depends on the day. A time ago, I used a $7.00 ticket the casino sent me. I played all afternoon on the free money, and hit once for $71.00 and once for $81.00. That day I went home ahead by $70. The last time, however, went just the opposite. We just have...

DanaMark February 2008 - that sounds like forever away. Six months can seem like forever when I'm waiting for something good like Lost. I'm ready. What are they waiting for?

Most of my role models growing up were on television. And, for better or worse that's where I picked up good and bad habits. For awhile I admired sports figures and tried to live up to their athletic examples. And, later on...

DanaMark I have used my Gmail account for my alerts ever since I started at myLot and have never had any problems. I set up a filter that sends them directly to a "Forum" folder so I know immediately how many new ones I have from myLot. It works quite well!

My computer went down so I won't be able to respond to discussions as much for a while. I'll have to sneak on when my wife is not using her computer until I can get mine working again. It won't boot up at all, so it may take a...

DanaMark I don't have my laptop fixed yet. I am using my wife's computer today. She is busy scrap booking. My son got it to work when he was here the other night. It still worked the next day when I booted up, but after about 1/2 hour it tied up again. I guess I'm...

Last night while my son was here, my wife was going through some things that we have stored from when our son was growing up. She found an equalizer that he had as part of his car stereo system back in his younger years. He said...

DanaMark I thought you were going to say "you have to get rid of the junk to make way for the new junk." lol. I agree, it is often hard remembering where the saved stuff is located. I know I haven't missed any of the junk we threw away. I hate to say it, but it is...

DanaMark I've read about many people not getting responses when they contacted what they thought would be a myLot support staff. It is too bad they don't respond. I suppose they are busy, but we rely on people who start forums and web sites to help us out when...

DanaMark Stealing posts from other members is really bad. I never considered that possibility. If a person can't think of their own discussions, they shouldn't be on a discussion forum such as this. That's would be like butting into a conversation and repeating what...

DanaMark No matter which way you decide to go, you will have moments later on when you question the decision, whether it is yes or no. Just remember that you made the decision you thought was best at the time. That is what we must do with all our decisions. We make...

DanaMark Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions. I'm learning from the comments that it is not necessarily a "women in general" thing. That's one of the reasons I asked the question. Now I know.

DanaMark As I'm reading the comments, I see that it is not just a man or woman thing. I am learning something here. I guess that's what these discussions are all about. Thanks for your response.

I am very impatient when it comes to waiting for things. When I want something, I want it right now. That's one of the reasons I don't buy a lot of items online. But if I can't find something in the store and end up ordering it...

DanaMark From what I understand, your star rating will appear after your ranking number beside your name reaches 100. That ranking number goes up one each time you post a comment on someone's discussion, or after the first comment on a discussion you started. You only...
