help please I just found out I have ten or fifteen more Best Responses,
and I am not complaining, of course. But I am swamped, and hope all of
my mylot friends can forgive me for not saying thanks individually.
I just have got so far b ehind on thanking people and feel so bad about
it too. So this is a discussion I guess about saying I cannot get to
all but I thank all of you from the bottom of my heart. Have any of you
ever just got swamped here because life has interceded and taken you
away from getting caught up on your mylotting? my diabetes has been acting up and have had to be off for awhile taking care of me, now I am off to my doctor for a diabetic check up. So this is my way of saying thanks so much for giving me so many Best responses , thanks to all of you
Hugs from Hatley.

hi ellie and letran my doctor said I am doing great, and is sending in a new referral to have my eyes checked, seems they are making the print a lot tinier now or I just need new glasses. I wanted him to increase my glyburide and he said no way since I went down to 63 at dinner and had everyone trying to help me bring my sugar up. so I am fine.

You surely deserved the BR's and it was the least one could do to show their appreciation! You have helped many of us with your thoughts and views, my kind friend.
Keep a check on your blood sugar level and hope to see you back in full swing at the earliest.
Take care

hi bodhisatya thanks so much, very kind worlds. My doctor said I was doing well and in fact so well he would not increase my diabetes
meds when I asked about it. So I am feeling so relieved now when I
get the referral to have my eyes checked for new glasses I will indeed\
be a happy camper.

hello hatley,
what can i say, congratulations to you! that was some fine thing you did and probably fifteen people think that you were the best of all the response.
the last BR that i got was only about a week ago, and i was the only Responder of that discussioni hope you can help more lotters am sure they didn't give you BR for nothing.

hi letran thanks I am so elated that my checkup is just fine,in fact I had asked my doctor to increase my diabetes medications and he said no I really do not want to as you have too many lows. You are really doing very well. so now do not have to go back for three months. hurrah.

Aww that's sweet... I know that I have given you some best responses for some of the discussions you posted on of mine... the reason being because your responses were the ones that stood out and ment a lot to me. I love reading your responses, I actually think that it is nice to be able to vote people's responses as the best. I have also got behind on thanking people, it is not something that I have done on purpose, but more because I have just been in a world of my own recently as you know from my discussions.... and my only refuge has been here on my lot, the best place to be, to take my mind of current situations.
Anyway... you thoroughly deserve the best responses that i have awarded to you, and you do not need to Thank... just carry on giving your opinions and advice, because it has helped me out!
Hope you are doing okay with your diabetes... Take Care!

oh no cip I really was not angry,honest more like kidding,as for my diabetes I have had that for many years so dont worry, besides the
doctor said I am doing very well, Please do not think I was angry
as I did not mean to come off that way at all, more like tongue in
cheek so to speak.As most Americans I am proud of my country but then
that is the way with all of us here, we are all proud of our own countries and cip really your discussion did not make me angry.
I just have my own style of responding. And it sure did not have
anything to do with my diabetes. because I am living now in a senior retirement center inside of my own apartment my doctor just wants to
check on my progress more often, as I am at the mercy of the cooks here as to what I am given to eat. when I was on my own I controlled my diabetes much better but now am doing better and lost 6 pounds, am happy that I did so well.

Personally I can relate with this one, and trying to keep up with discussions you start, while also wanting to take time to respond back in others discussions, and Thank people for giving you the Best Response is a lot of work, and does take some effort for sure. I think if we all had more time in a day even we could not get it all done.

Hi Hatley,
I'm willing to bet that most don't care if you thank them for giving a best response. I know I don't care about those things. I actually would rather no one thank me when I give a best response. Why? I have trouble picking a best response quite often. I don't like attention drawn to the fact that I chose one. It's actually one of the things I like doing the least on here. I feel the same as when my kids were small and would ask me whose drawing was the best. I could never choose.

Oh my mom never asked my opinion on things like that. She used to ask me who I would want to go with if her and my dad split up....it was so so awkward. They never split up thankfully. My mother and I were not close enough for her to ask me about her clothes or things unfortunately. I'm like you....I wait at least a month and sometimes longer before giving a BR. It is really hard sometimes.

hi sid just thinking my mom when I was in my early twenties used to ask me if this dress made her look fat, or did I like the dress? and I am going in my head, thats the ugliest thing I have ever seen but I cannot tellher that, shes mymom,Some questions are just plain hard to answer. I usually have a hard time giving a br because there well be several that both are very good but I do finally give one out. I do wait unlike so many til a month has passed to allow people to respond if they will.

I didn't give you that many, I doubt I even gave out that much anyways..But don't worry about thanking the people, unless you have something else to say, I believe they discourage thanking someone..Don't ask me why, I have no idea..

hi carmelanirel I have not given out any for awhile either, off line life sort of sneaks up on one. I just hope I did not break any rules making this discussion. Any way I do not have to see my doctor for three months and I am doing great so that makes me really happy.

I am learning many things from you madam.
Really your responses are very natural.
I love your way of modulation.
I love a senior person like you.
And i don't know that you are a "diabetic" patient. How is your health now.

hi gabs thanks so much I was so pleased tobe so honored. it makes up for getting a comment deleted when it was not my comment, its odd that the comment was a stringof letters and I have never in all the time i have been here did such a stupid thing in a comment. I did send mylotadmins an email explaining I was the person who reported this comment not the one who made it.

wow! it's really overwhelming if you get 10 to 15 best response in one day. It's amazing mate, i have no doubt about it because you are one of the best mylotters here. As what I observed everytime you post, it makes more impact because it's clear and with content. I admire you for being nice to all and comment on different discussion with no hesitation and it's as great help to us. Thank you for supporting also my post.

I am sure all your friends who gave you the best response mark would forgive you. Sometimes with the thousands of new discussions we have participated at in Mylot, we tend to forget the earlier discussions we have participated at, depriving us of the surprise of making the best response in that discussion. I do have a few best responses in my belt and I must admit that sometimes I really do forget to say thank you to the Mylot members who have appreciated my idea and efforts.

Hello Hatley
You deserve it. No need to feel sorry that you can't say thanks individually, it is your words in every responses you made shows your kindness, I think that is enough.
Have a nice day~

Thanks for sharing.
Welcome always.
Cheers.
