I went to bed, but I couldn't go to sleep. I got back up hoping that I would get tired enough to feel sleepy, but so far it's not working. Actually, now it's Saturday (12:17 a.m.). Haven't had a night...

Menie I've had weary, sleepless nights like these once in a while. I guess you might have been thinking of issues in your personal life - either minor or major. While we are aware that it's not a healthy option to stay up late, sometimes it can't be avoided....

Good day to you all. Hope you all have a good weekend. I went to work today and was going to work for half a day on my day off, but we caught up so quickly I was only there 3 hours and 45 minutes so it’s a little more that will be...

Menie It's good to hear you could render extra work on your day off - translating to a little more on your paycheck. Here in our location, rendering extra work on a day off means lots of explanation why one has to do extra work. We need to 'convince' the employer...

Hello everyone. I hope your day is off to a good start. It is 54 degrees F and dark here at the Jersey Shore. The high is only 58 and this is going to be the warmest day of the week. It is another day of work today. I am...

Menie Wow, I must say I envy your tenacity. Right where I am, I work full-time in a private company where we render at least 9 hours of work in a day. However, it is common for local employees to work overtime without getting additional pay. Though I'd love to...

Woohoo! One is an actual class ($44.12) and the other is a hall duty ($22.05). I’ll just bring my lunch to the hall duty and have it there. No tanning again today but I’ve gotta make hay while the sun shines as they say. The...

It looks pretty but is chilly outside. We should warm up a little bit more yet. I just got my new phone so I will try to get that set up soon if I can. I don't know if I have everything yet. That's because it mentioned a sim...

Menie Less plans, less stress. This is how I would call days like you mentioned. Sometimes it's good to have days where you could just indulge in relaxation and play some games... It calms the mind, too. Be happy and well.

I must say that having deadlines is what makes me motivated. The feeling of stress is part of it. The more I was being challenged, the more I wanted to perfect the tasks assigned to me. At present, I do not have deadlines for...

Menie I must say, deadlines aren't for me; more so if these are multiple tasks where the set deadlines are so near apart.

Menie It's great to hear you're looking forward to spending this Christmas Eve with your 'family'. Personally, I am with my family every year to spend the holidays. However, I got no plans in particular to visit anywhere in the country this year. It's house time...

I must say it is better than the first day. I couldn't start working at 9:00 a.m. because the kid is down with a stubborn dust allergy and needed to see a doctor. There is too much dust in this godforsaken place. Then, when I got...

Here in mylot. I was not as active as I had been in the past days. Maybe it's because of the lack of sleep, the chores and things I need to do, or maybe I feel lazy at times. Sometimes at night here when most of you...

Menie Same thoughts, I feel I need to engage with myLot much more than I actually do. But I can't help it. My dayjob takes most of my time, rendering overtime without pay. But I guess this would change by next month. I will be giving up my job due to toxicity,...

Menie Great to know you headed for Church this Sunday. I was not able to go to church again, sadly though. I've felt slugglish these past few days but I don't know why. Anyway, God bless.

Menie Wow, just the thought of going on a leisure trip by train excites me. Here in our country, there are lots of trains but one usually rides it when commuting to and from work location. Understandably, it's a hurried trip with thoughts of work deadlines on your...
