I have been on mylot for years & since i am a dork when it comes to technology i never knew how to put a picture on for my avatar. My son was here yesterday & he has new pictures of his new baby daughter w/my favorite grandson & i ask him would he put one of the pictures on got me. I AM SO EXCITED HE DID, LOL. Have had people to ask me why i didn't have one now they can't do that anymore. Why don't y'all ask me something else?? I like to chat.Happy sunday to everyone.

Cool! Glad you finally got your avatar on here. Cute pic. Avatars on here sometimes reflect what we love, do and believe. Some change avatars to suit their moods among other things. Mine is the simple image of water in its versatile form. I like water because it is very flexible and takes on any shape of it's container. If were all as flexible as water we would be the perfect race. No wars, no devastating conflict as we would understand and just go along with everything. But I wish it were that simple. Lol. If you would have a choice besides your wonderful pics of your grandchildren, what would be your avatar be antiquelady?

Wise choice. Antique stuff are history in itself. I like antiques, my granny left us a lot of those. Each antique tells a great story of its past. I perfectly understand the nut part. At some point it aint too bad really. I remember I tried to convince my granny to use a calculator instead of doing her business computations on paper. She was stubborn and said I'm not comfortable using any of those hideous machines. She was half chinese and preferred using her own secret weapon calculator known as the Abacus. She challenged me to which would be the fastest calculator. She made up a list of numbers for both of us to compute. I on the calculator she on the abacus. I naturally lost that challenge. She was too damn fast. Lol. My granny taught me a valuable lesson that day. Old people may not roll and catch up with the times. But they sure have their own tricks good enough to defeat the new generation at some point. Lol. Cheers!

Congratulations! finally you have a nice avatar to grace your page. I know most of us who are not born in the computer era are technically handicapped and a little support from the computer savvy people is a great blessing. Your grandson and his newborn sister makes a great opening for your new avatar. Maybe the next avatar will be a picture of yourself which would be great.

Hi. ANTIQUELADY. Your grandson is very adorable. That is okay, I did not know how to upload my photos on myLot until last month. I am very happy that you are able to spend time with your grandson and your granddaughter too. I would like to see a picture of your new grand daughter when you are able to get one. I know that she is very adorable. Bless her little heart!

hey, lady....I just wrote a flippin' book here in response and the d*mn thing got swallowed by the ethernets!!! I had said (or somewhat closely): I see that your grandson looks really proud of his new sister. I hope your son taught you how to post the photos so you can keep us updated on the grandkids.

I just hate it when that happens & it does quite often. Makes me talk ugly, lol.my son was going to show me but i told him i would forget what he said. Till i can do things a few times i might as well forget it. My memory definitely leaves alot to be desired. In other words as the uoung folks say 'it sucks'.. I did not sleep well last night either but that's not unusual for me. Wish my excuse had been because i ate too much catfish. That is one of my favorite foods. Ryan is very proud of that baby, i'll tell u. Hope it lasts, lol. Thanks for responding.

Oh...and I had also said that you must have gotten up before the chickens to have made this post so early. I've been up all night for various reasons and it's about time for me to lie down. I had fresh catfish and hush puppies for dinner last night and I don't think it set too well with me. NOW...I'm off.

Good morning, dear friend, and Thank You for the wonderful wishes...yesterday! It's kinda exciting when you have an avatar isn't IT? I am so glad you chose Ryan and Little Angel Andee. Ryan looks so proud, so thrilled with the precious little bundle he is holding. I, too, do not know how to change my avatar..my son T.J. put this one up and it is a picture of where two rivers meet...where I spread my Father's ashes, which was his wish. I had a spectacular day yesterday..and the most wonderful dinner last nite! Thank you. Luv & HUGZ

How cute is that? I haven't seen you this excited about anything EVER! That is so cool! I am a dork when it comes to some technology. Some stuff I do just fine. My BFF won't even get online so I think I am doing pretty good. Pictures are fun. I get pics from my granddaughter and have another site i put them on.

It is now Tuesday, so happy Tuesday! Your new picture is adorable. He looks really proud of his new sister! I am technology challanged also. A friend helped me with my avatar. There was a discussion about avatars and copyright infringements so I was thinking of changing mine, but I can't remember what I did.

Well, the picture I have on here is one that I took back before I became a member here, so it is like about 5 yrs. old now. I should consider putting a Newer picture on here, but then would people know it was me? But good to see that you finally have a picture here, and being able to show off your grandson in the process is a Good thing for sure.

Hi ANTIQUELADY, really glad to learn that you finally have got your own lovely avatar. It's meaningful as well to have your dear loved ones in the first avatar.

It's really pleasant to have them accompany you when having fun with others chatting here We don't find any difficulty to recognize you too when seeing the lovely avatar which is so unique. Happy posting and have a nice day
