Hi friends and everyone else! As you already know, I've dropped off the face of Mylot for a while, 5-6 months could count as a while.
My friends here are the best, and I want you to know that I haven't forgot about you. You know who you are.
I've been so caught up in life outside of Mylot (good and bad), trying to pull in some mad cash to help pay bills and to help friends and family with various needs.
Oh my goodness! Did 5-6 months really go by already?...
Was I hibernating in my snow cave?..Mylotters why didn't you wake me up?...
I would love to hear from you!
How's life been treating you?
What's the longest you've been away from Mylot? and what draws you back?

dragon54u! Thank GOODNESS! you are still here. You've always been a good friend of mine. I'm so happy to see you here.
And yes, I've had more good times than bad. I'm just so exhausted from the busy schedule I've been trying to manage. I hardly get any rest, but hey! I can't complain. There are people who would take my life in a hot second.

Welcome back! MyLot has become my morning coffee routine, so I don't miss it very often. I think I've missed if for about a day or two while traveling, but other than that I'm here. 5 or 6 months is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too long. Don't let it happen again! OK?

Hi catdla1! Thanks for the welcome mat. I'm so glad to see you here. Mylot was once my morning hot cocoa, and I enjoyed it very much. But I was getting a little short on cash and had to focus most of my online time cranking out bill money.
But I'll tell you this...The 5-6 month thing won't happen again. You've got my word, unless I croak (pass away). Sorry, just being honest.
Good to be back, and good to see you!

Hello my friend, how has life been treating you, I have had you on my mind and in my prayers, it is good the hear from you.
Things with me are good, I have no complaints I am just trusting in God and living one day at a time.
Wow, it is really good to know that you haven't forgotten about us. I don't MyLot as much as I used to either. But I do keep in touch with my MyLot friends and all is doing great. Holla at me sometime, through email, if you still have my address if not just pm me and I will give it to you again.
Take care Chevee

Is this Chevee?...Hmmm, it sure does look like it. I was hoping you were still on here. There is no way I can forget about you, and yes, I will send you a PM because I don't remember your email address. I'm never organized, but that will change, and this time I will not misplace your email, or anyone else email.

WELCOME BACK! Since the last time you were around I have changed my name, I am your old friend MSV1313/AngryKitty/MSV1016 LOL.
I can't stay away from mylot for more than a few days, even if I don't post I am usually here reading. LOL
The longest I was ever away was 4 days, when I was in the hospital after delivering my beloved son in 2007.
I am doing OK, my kids are getting big and I am still at mylot. How have YOU been?

Hi AngryKittyMSV! I know who you are. Good to see you! How did you change your name? I didn't know you could do that on here. I wanted to change my name but didn't know how.
Anyway, thank you for the "welcome back" mat.

You can't change your name easily, my name changed when I closed the previous account and opened a new one, I've done that more than once. LOL Long story. It's a hassle starting over, I wouldn't recommend it unless you were really having trouble on the existing account.

I am not that old out here of a being a member.I still can't back off from this site, am so very impressed and thus want to be stuck in this site for a long time.
People like you got almost hibernated for 5-6 months so sad about to know that.This site has been good for talking of all things around her.I have been not in here recently for a day or so.

When I first joined Mylot I was literally hooked on it within the first hour, but during that time I had a lot more time on my hands than I do now...so sad.
Thanks for the reply. Happy mylotting.

Welcome home! Yes, MIA for six months is quite long for a person who is active and suddenly disappear. I have been missing for a year here and when I came back most of my friends have left and I have to start all over again to look for friends here. Of course there is no short supply of good friends in mylot. I have not gone missing ever since. Mylot has a lot of things that is not easy to leave permanently. I am here to stay.

Hello friend! How are you? Six months really is a long time to be missing, but to tell you the truth, it doesn't feel that long, it feels more like 6 weeks and 6 days to be exact.
I don't know yet if all my special friends are still here or not, but I'm standing by to find out. Hopefully I can find the time to stop by often or just take a sneak peek.

Hi pergammano, life is going so much better for me. I can finally breathe a little without all the stress. One thing about life is that trials and tribs don't have to last forever. Well not in every case.
It's sooooo nice to see you too. God bless you, and keep smiling.

YEah, your previous avatar used to show more of your face, and in a darker shade.. haha =D Well, taking of breaks will always tend to be longer than expected, for mylot is one addictive place, to make one give up alot of things in the process.. haha =D

So you noticed I changed my avatar?...Hmmm
I was waiting on somebody to point that out.
Actually my intention wasn't to take a break from Mylot, but to step away for a hot second in order to make room to create a cash flow.
But time got away and left me behind, but I'm glad I accomplished a lot, more than I expected.

I feel ya. There's only so many hours in a day, and we can only jungle so many things in that short time frame.
What if the days were longer...like 48 hours instead of 24 hours? Hmmm, never thought of that one. I guess that's a whole other discussion.

My word! Has it been that long since I saw you on here last? Well, five to six months isn't that bad if you accomplished what you wanted to. And doing good for others is a good thing. You should be proud of that. Life is treating me better and not so good. Each to its own accord. Glad you are back and doing well!

Oh yes, it was well worth it. I'm now in a better place and able to help more on the bills and save a little pocket change too.
I always find ways to help other people. I'm not complete unless I'm helping someone. I love people! That's who I am.

What's up tamarafireheart? I miss y'all too. I use to be so active on here back in the days (6 months ago). I never imagined I would hibernate that long. Shame on me huh?
Although I miss being here, I did manage to get my business off the enough to pay some bills and take care of other things. All works well.
Good to see you girl.

Welcome back! I just recently came back too. I was away for about 9 months. Which is pretty long I guess. My family moved and then as you can atest to; life just sweeps you up and the next thing you know it's been months since you've been on myLot! Now that I'm back I've been trying to check in about once or twice a week. I still can't devote every day to myLot but I really love it. I have gotten some really great advice here on various subjects. I'm glad you're back and I hope for all the best for you!

WOW! Nine months! and I thought 6 months was long. I guess we came back around the same time huh? It's funny how a busy life can take you away from Mylot for so long. I can't devote everyday to Mylot either but I'll try to drop by and put in my 2 cents every change I get, at least 1-2 times per week.
I'm glad you're back! Happy mylotting!

Well hey there stranger! Nice to see ya again! What's going on
with you since we last heard from you! What have you been up
to? Just left us without even saying a word! So how has life
been treating you and what where you thinking staying away
from us for all these months? So start dishing girl! We want
to hear what you'v been up to! Things here have been crazy
as always, but nothing really out of the ordinary, at least
I don't think so!

Opal! I sure can't forget about you. Life has been so distracting for me. Which is overall a good thing. When I have problems I try not to dwell on it. Instead I just find something or someone to care for.
For me, helping out anyway I can will heal whatever wounds that are damaged. I'm back with my husband now, it's been 6 months since we got re-attached, and guess what?We are still standing! After all the crap we've been through.
It really means a lot to hear from you! I hope that smile on your face is getting wider by the second. In order words, I hope you still smiling.

Well, I was laid off for awhile and I have not been on as well. It is just to trying for me right now. I'm back at work second shift again but that is ok. I'm still not taking phone calls as I still can't pay them. I come back and plus but don't write that much as what do I say I'm depressed and can't pay the bills I made. I come back for my friends and take a look around. Then I go and play games and go off in to la la land. Y0our friend onlydia. Nice to see you.

Miraclefreebies!! Hellloooo!!! How are you? I often wondered where you got to! I saw you avatar when I was going through my friends list last week and wondered…Now you’re back! I stayed away when I first joined believe it or not. I became a member and then stayed away for a month or two. When I came back I became part of the furniture here and the longest break I’ve had since was two weeks when my daughter was home on school holidays!
Hope you are here to stay for a while or I'll come and get you!
