Almost all the summer I didn't have much time to get online.As the school summer began,my son,my two nephews often came to my home to play with computer games,of course sometimes my son had to use it for study,and my lover waited for her turn to chat to her friends.
I had to labour in my orange grove,and that always made me so tired.During the early 7 days of August I had a chance to leave home for a trip,I went to Shanhai,Wuxi,Nanjin,Suzhou and Hangzhou.
So ever since July,I have hardly been here at myLot.Now I'm back here,but It seems that I can't find many of my myLot friends!Where are you,please?

Many of us are still here, wondering where the others are.
Some of gone, because they went off the rails, but many are returning now that the nights grow longer and it is cooler outside.
That's the joiy of myLot. Once you have your place at the table it is upt ot you whether you take a seat or not.
Welcome back!

"Mylot is like a small society and extended family"
That is the real secret of myLot indeed

Mylot is like a small society and extended family.Over here,so many people who come from different countries and have never met before even unlikely meet all their life exchange their ideas and share their happiness and anxiety one another.They are all kindly,even-temperedly and good- humoured.I have been fascinate with it,meanwhile I also attribute it to Internet which expands our radius of life.

Hi Oldsix. All I can tell you is that it was fun after receiving my first payment from myLot.
No, I didn't really spend much time on myLot until lately. In fact, I lost my mood for 2 or 3 days in the beginning of this week and wasn't able to participate much in discussions except to stare blankly at the screen.
Do just like me. When I am busy to come online, I just log in to post one or two comments and that's it.

Wow,congratulations,Jlyn10!I've reaced it but I haven't withdrawn it,yet.
Yes,sometimes the mood affects our work more or less,hehe.
You are very right.I must hold on arriving here posting.Have fun!

Of course including you,Jlyn10.Maybe you have enough time to visit myLot often,but I have to put getting online aside when I'm not free,so I have missed lots of great discussions from myLotters.I hope you've been happy all the past two months.

Sorry for being out of touch so long. Between school and medical issues I have been very busy. Now I am going through old discussions and trying to get caught up. Over the last month or so, I have become more involved with the Red Cross and working out. Although I finished with chemo in mid-June, my tumor marker count went up three weeks later and they decided that I needed to do another blood test six weeks later. I saw the urologist on the first of September and then two days later I was sent to New York to help with the flooding since I am a disaster services volunteer. After two weeks there, I was still trying to get caught up on everything so now I finally feel like I have time to get back in here. I do have one more assignment that I have to finish by tomorrow night, but other than that, all is well. I hope all is going well for you. Have a great week!!!

I could have deleted all the messages, but I just moved them into a separate folder in my email so that I could look at them later. Although I am over a month behind, in the last two days I did look through over 100 discussions and either responded to them or deleted them. It depended on whether I had anything that was interesting. I'm glad that we got in touch again!

I'm very glad to see you again,and it's never too late to meet old friends,so you don't have to say sorry,Daeckardt.
Oh,I don't have so much time and I have to share my computer with my family members,so I have to delete hundreds of discussions,and sometimes I have to postpone my comments so long,hehe.
Wow,you are really a strong and active woman!You've been suffered with cancer but you've never stopped all the work involved!
Yes,I've been very fine and everything will go well.Good luck and great health with you!!

Hi,GreenMoo!Hey,since you are here,and soon most of my friends must come to my side.Have you been busy myLotting all the past two months?And How many times have you withdrawn the payment so far?

It is pretty quiet on here right now. I don't know if people have had to get jumped away from online or what. I hardly make pay out each month because so many people have gone elsewhere and aren't responding or posting. I think it is sad for the site and hope it speeds back up in the Fall and Winter.

No wonder you haven't been here on mylot all this while.It reminds me of a Chinese idiom,that is to say,"the cow fondly licks her calf."It was surely an unforgettable trip for you to see the sights of so many famous cities.

Hi Oldesix, it's good to see you my friend. Many people come and go on myLot. It can be a seasonal thing whereby in summer, many are spending their spare time outdoors or holidaying. There can be any number of reasons why people are not here. Some come and go, some get bored and leave, and some are here most of the time...like me!

Hehe,I'm so glad to see you again,MsTickle!Yes,I should have understood the reasons why I couldn't find so many previous myLot friends,some are on vacation,some have to leave for something,and some have made up their mind to leave myLot...Let's just let it be,no one can be stopped here and no one can stop someone else from leaving here.Have fun!

Hi dear,
Even I was away or rarely visited myLot for the last 3-4 months as the site got blocked from the office where I am working. A little time which I get from home was not good enough to have a peaceful discussion and I seldom been here with. However, I got a tricky chance to continue and can say back here, but chances are more to disappear any moment of time.
Anyway, I am back and as you said, we cannot predict here in myLot, when people comes and goes back. Sometime people are so addicted and the same speed they will move out. All depend on their mood and the experience. Some will go away for ever and few are long time users and still a small group is just like on and off. So, considering these basic factors, how we can expect all of them here. Hope you will find someone in the course of time and have a nice day.
Thank-s

Hehe,it's so funny that you have to find a tricky chance to do myLotting!
Yes,all the visitors to myLot may leave,stay or become addicted for some reason,and we can't force any of them to stay with us forever.But I hope that all my myLot friends can find the pleasureness wherever he or she is.Have fun!

Hi,Oldsix. No offence.But it is more appropriate to say "where have you been to ?" than "where have you gone ?"As a Chinese , i know that you want to improve your English on mylot .Thus, i don't think you mind my correction ,do you ? Let us get back to the topic . Eh, i have not gone to anywhere this summer for that i was busying reviewing my lessons . It is always enjoyable to have a trip with someone you like . I have been looking forward to a long trip since i graduated from my college . Yet , there always exists something in my way to splendid places. Maybe the situation would turn around after the summer . Wish me luck !

Actually captinjack, Oldsix is correct. The correct way to ask is "Where have you gone?" rather than where have you been (to) The to is absolutely unnecessary here.

Hi,Captinjack,my Chinese friend!
Haha,first I used "Where have you been?",but I thought that so many friends hadn't come back to me,then I changed it.I HOPE I NEVER OFFEND ANY OF MY FRIENDS.Thank you for your correction,Jack!
Wow,you have just graduated from college?My son will be at the third grade in a highschool,he's preparing for the college entrance exams next year!
You can travel around all over the world some day,young man!Have fun and good luck!

They are just the same like u, gone on trips, or work has overtaken mylot. The same goes for me too, i wasn't that active for the past 2 months because i'm busy with work. However, when i'm back, i realise all my friends are back during that period of time. As such, now i've got most of my friends active on mylot again, and i'm glad with that.
