As a typical mother, my time in the internet is limited. I split my time for online work and for taking care of my son and the household chores. I am pretty organized with things so I just do the same things all over again. I go online during evening time (Philippine time) which is daytime in the US. It is because I do a lot of household work from morning to afternoon. How about you? What time do you usually go online?

I go on and offline all the time during the evening/night. I typically get home around 6 or so, and then I'm doing work here and there, but always get online to talk to people or surf the web off and on until midnight. I probably spend too much time online and too little doing work, but it always seems like there's too little time for everything!

I noticed that most people spend time online during the evening. I also go online until midnight. I have to wake up early the next day so I make sure I do not get late otherwise I will lose energy for the next day's line up of offline works.

Yeah, it is very important that I get offline in a timely fashion because there's always so much to do early the next day! I hate having to wake up early to get out of the house and do stuff, because I could definitely use the extra sleep! I just wish that everything started a bit later and people didn't have to wake up so early in the morning!

We are the same although I do not work outside home, instead I do a lot of household chores and I take care of my son during the day and spend time online during the evening.

So you only work online? I would probably do the same as you only if I don't have a son and a family to take care of. I can imagine myself spending too much time online should I still be single.

My online daily routine usually starts anywhere from 4am - 6am, pending on what time I get up with my significant other to get him off to work. Some days my time on here is more spuratic than others, other days I am on here constant, with minimal breaks as I am working on 3-4 different websites every day. I enjoy my time online as it lets me voice my opinions and learn about lots of new things.

It is good to spend free time online to make money or to learn. It is fine if you get addicted as long as you use the internet properly. I know some people who only use the internet for online games and to watch movies which is a waste of time for me. It is fine to play games when you get paid for doing it. It is also okay to watch movies online but not all the time.

I usually don't make it online until early evening hours. I work from 8-4:30PM so I'm not home until I get off work. I get home about 15 minutes till 5 which means I come home and get relaxed for the day and then I get online. Usually I wait for my partner to get home before we eat anything so I have plenty of time to get online before she gets back from class.

I do mylotting at very odd hours either... when i wake up at 2am and couldnt go back to sleep..i log on to mylot until my eyes grow tired..
i usually wake up at 5 am.. and it seems like a habit to me to turn on the computer first thing as i wake up... then of course log on to mylot.
then i leave the computer on the rest of the day..then check for discussions once in a while...
in between I do the things I need to do..
by the end of the day..i get everything done anyway!

I go on the internet throughout the day usually...but mostly in the morning when I first get up and before I go to class and of course at night before I go to bed or while I'm watching TV. What's annoying is that what is prime time for me, is usually a quiet time online because it's the early morning in the US and Europe. :P

I'm also from the Philippines, I usually go online at around 7am until midnight evey saturdays and sundays. Every weekdays as soon as I got home I go online. :) It really depends on my schedule at work because I'm working night shift. If I got so tired there are times that I don't go online at all. But there are also a time that I get a little addicted and I don't wan't to close my laptop. :) Happy myLotting!

Since I am temporarily unemployed, I am online on and off most of the day and night. Sometimes I have a very hard time tearing myself away from this darn computer long enough to get my chores done, especially since I stumbled across MyLot! This site has been very interesting to me and I tend to spend too much time on it.

Being an information technology student, I usually go online at night after school to do some research and make my reports.It's kinda hard because I merely play online games and enjoy.My time to play is limited unlike doing my school works especially during exams week. A number of projects to make and a need to study for the exam.

Usually midnight or early morning. Internet connection is faster during these times. Afternoons & early evenings are the worst, internet connections are very slow.

I usually get on around 7:30 in the morning, after my two older kids go to school, but before my little guy wakes up. I have a nice hour to an hour and a half of quiet time where I can concentrate on line. Then I do a little housework, and make lunch, then get my little guy to school. If I don't have any errands I will come home and maybe get on line or maybe do housework, depending on what housework needs done. Then most days I can usually get on around 3:30 for an hour or an hour and a half before I have to start getting ready for dinner. I am on right now only because I am waiting for the oven to pre-heat so I can put some food in there. So I will be getting off in a minute or so.

I'm a mother too, and the best time for me to be online is when I get time to myself, at night time. This is why I'm still typing away at 1:00am! Really stupid I know!
I'm on here during the day sometimes if my daughter's otherwise engaged, or sometimes if she's at nursery if I'm not too busy then. But usually there are lots of other things to do, so night-time is when I can spend some concentrated time on here. Although often I let it get too late, and I should really just go to bed instead!!

I used to online from morning till dawn, since I am a professional blogger and I used to write for other sites too. However, a tragic happened to my family that cost us a lot of money. Unfortunately, I have to sell my pc and I am now only renting one.
However, it taught me a good lesson. I now know how to balance my time, and I am now only online for 2 hours a day. The good thing is my income did not reduce that much, although I think it's still better if I have more time online.
Thanks, kabayan!

Hey,
Well I usually go online in the morning before I have breakfast. Then after I have breakfast, I again go online and then I spend most of the day online, because I am still looking for a job to fund my College fees. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Hi Aica,
I'm online almost all day, at work and at home, except when it's time to sleep. When in the office I check on myLot during breaktime, and drop a post or two whenever I can. At home I get to work on my online activities uninterrupted when the kids are about to sleep.
