Hi everyone... I thought to start this discussion yesterday but due to lack of time i am starting today. We mylotters access mylot either from home or office or cafe. Right? other than these three places, can you imagine a place from where you can mylot? My only one sister is five months pregnant and she immediately got pain on her lower part of stomach. Everyone thought that it is due to pregnancy but as days were passing by, the pain increased and after an emergency sonography, the doctor had detected a tumor and suggested immediate operation. So, yesterday the operation is successfully over. Well, me and my brother in law are staying with her one by one. When i stay with her, i have carried my laptop and accessed mylot from nursing home. Do you think that it does not suit to access mylot from nursing home? or just i am a time killer? Have you ever accessed mylot from a place that you did not ever wished? Please share. N.B. I am still accessing from nursing home.

Hi didi... Thanks for the wishes and i will surely convey it to her. Actually when she sleeps or just naps and no visitor around, then situation becomes hectic and that is why i have preferred internet. The distance between nursing home and my home is just few meters. have a nice time.

About your topic, no...there is nothing wrong using the net even inside the bathroom if anyone can do it. It's not a timepass either, when you're inside the hospital, taking care of your love ones, it's not 24/7 so, using the net is not a taboo. Enjoy mylotting

jai I've used the net inside the bathroom before It was those times I am so busy researching for something and time is really so important that I could not just leave the laptop.

hi! i sincerely hope that your sister is doing better after her operation. that is sweet of you to be able to be there for her in times of delicate situations. for me, when you have time to kill, mylotting is such a good way as any to pass the time... regardless of where you are. in my case, i usually bring my laptop wherever i go. as our house has wi-fi, i can pretty much access the internet within our grounds (kitchen, bedroom, garden and my home office). when i go to our head office in the metro, i can have wi-fi access too as well as in most hotels, airports, malls and cafes. but mylotting time is quite limited for me due to a very hectic schedule. once i was on a 2-hour bus ride with wi-fi access, i tried to check my emails as well as a few sites which includes mylot. unfortunately, because of limited access and the signal is tooooooo slow (i was afraid cobwebs will just sprung up--- that's how slow it was... hehehe) ... i could not do even a bit of mylotting except for reading some PM. i decided to just wait until i got home to do the internet. later tonight i'll be visiting my sister-in-law at the hospital who had just given birth to a healthy baby boy a few hours ago (by my count, i have 15 nephews and nieces already). i won't be bringing my laptop then because i'd be sure to play nanny to the kids who would be visiting as well. happy mylotting! :)

yeah... it's nice to be able to mylot a bit every now and then. my posts are few and so far in between... but i still enjoy it whenever i get back to mylot. i just got back from the hospital myself visiting my sis in law. keep your sister in vitamins for speedy recovery after the operation. :)

Hi myles... after a long time nice to meet you again. Thanks for the compliments, yesterday i called principal over phone to allow me a leave and today is a holiday and tomorrow, i shall seek a leave again. Lets see the days after tomorrow. I dont carry my laptop anytime and whenever i go. I just wish to reach my home so that i can access peacefully from my home. I know poor signal is too much disturbing in communicating on internet. Thats why i prefer my home or my college/rent house most. It is an exceptional that i am mylotting from hospital. Happy mylotting too and have a nice time.

First, I wish your sister and her child a quick recovery, a healthy birth and long and happy lives! I don't think it's wrong to myLot or other things as long as you're not ignoring your sister's needs and comfort. You're not the type of person who would do that, though.

I don`t see what is wrong if you access mylot from the nursing home where your sister has been admitted or for that matter from anywhere or any place on earth or outer space or from the moon.Since you are not disurbing anybody there is no harm in doing it.At least you are keeping yourself busy and earning some money.An idle mind is the devils workshop and by mylotting you are keeping satan away.So go ahead and don`t bother what others say or think.

It is good to hear that your sister's operation was successful and I hope that she will get well soon. I think it is fine to use Mylot from the nursing home. As long as we have an internet connection we can use Mylot from almost any place. I think it is a good way to spend the time in those periods where you sister doesn't need you for instanse while she is sleeping. Most of the time I use Mylot from my home, but I have a laptop and a wireless internet connection, so when I go away for the weekend I usually bring my laptop. I have used Mylot from the place where I spent my mini vacation and from the school where I took some classes last summer. I have never tried to use my laptop from a nursing home or a hospital, but I would bring it if I had to spend a lot of time there.

Thanks for the wishes porcospino, surely, i shall convey to her. I access when she sleeps or just rests and apart from it her hubby is also with her. Hence i get some time to mylot without ignoring her. home is the most preferable place for me too as i can mylot by lying on bed too or keeping it on table. I have accessed mylot only from home by my laptop. In journey through mobile set and sometimes in cafe. have a nice time.

I often accessed myLot and other websites while I was at clinics and in the hospital at various times. That is one nice thing about the university hospital system...it has wi-fi throughout. I don't think I could live without internet access for so many days while I was in the hospital whether it was for chemo or other problems.

I haven't had to be admitted to the hospital since July, but I was in and out pretty every month this year until then. Being an online student, I had no choice but to get on the internet so I could complete my classes. I just hope that I am able to stay out of the hospital from now on. Have a great week!!!

Hi daeckardt. Hope, your health issues are over. Well, that was the last time that i accessed internet from a hospital. When you are bored inside hospital and there is no way to relax your mind, Then i think there is nothing wrong in accessing internet. Have a nice time.

Just a friendly FYI : In the USA, we mostly call the centers I assume you're sister is at as a rehabilitation home. A Nursing home is usually for older people. Is she not in the hospital? Maybe she's just in a room resting, I'm not sure what you mean. I am glad they were able to operate and I assume all is well with her and baby, which is good. I have accessed mylot from an old smartphone I had, but it took a long time to earn from there. Still, if I were to get another smartphone I may still access it so that I can earn while on the go. That is probably the worst thing for which i've "killed time" with.

Hi somecowgirl... Here nursing home and hospital mean the same and most often rehabilitation home is called where addicted people are under treatments. Where older people stay is called old aged home. Again a hospital indicates a government center where patients are under treatment. thanks for the wishes. I have a simple phone with gprs facility to access net. have a nice time.

almost everyday I try to steal time beside my busy work hours to have mylotting. actually there are other activities to do in my office, but my current job is very awful and boring and my existence in mylot beside to having fun is also to decrease my boring. Don't you think it's little weird for me to almost never have mylotting at home with my laptop?? But I really did it! anyway, I hope your sister will get better soon. I think in that situation you should leave mylot and focus with your sister's healthy -even may be there are some people there. your presense will make her stronger and pass the moment better

Hi shibham, Sad to hear about your sister. But it's a good thing that she had already undergone an operation to remove the tumor. Hopefully all will be better for her. Regarding accessing myLot - for me, there is no better and comfortable place to access myLot but at home. But of course I have tried accessing it from other places too. I have tried it on malls too. At nursing home it would be okay and I have heard some myLotter too have had accessed it from the hospital.

Same here. I am not much of a shopper, so I was just basically waiting for my family in a shopping mall. To kill time, I put $2 in one of those public internet access and next thing I know I'm logged on myLot.

I have accessed my laptop in public places but not in a hospital settings. I think it is ok provided that you are not using the hospital electricity and it does not affect how you communicate with your sister. You can also decide to switch it off when she is awake to make sure that you give full attention to her during this time.

For me, this is the first time that i access mylot from a nursing home. Actually, i have nothing to do there.... just to look after her and in case of emergencies, to call nurses. I am using hospital electricity and for that i have to pay them and no, i am communicating with her when she needs. have a nice time.
@Mashnn (4501)

Then there is nothing wrong with what you are doing. I do not know whether you need to pay the hospital for electricity. I think they usually include electricity charges in patient's bill.

I didn't use mylot from anywhere else except from home, as i don't have mobile internet and public wifi is often hard to find. I'm sorry to hear what happened to your sister. Hope she is feeling better. I think you don't need to feel that you are a time killer, it means a lot that you are there for your sister (I wish wouldn't have to be alone all day when I was in hospital) Hopefully she will have a speedy recovery!

She is feeling better but pain is there. right now, she is napping. No, she is guarded either by me or her hubby. Not to leave her alone at any cost. Thanks for the wishes. Have a nice time.

Hope your sister is better now and you are taking good care of her. Dont get too engrossed in mylotting that you are not aware of what she is doing!!! lol. I have only used my laptop at home and have not taken it anywhere as yet. Nobody has been in hospital since I bought my laptop so am not sure whether I would be tempted to take it with me if I had to stay in a nursing home with someone!!!. Hope your sis comes home soon so that you can mylot from the comfort of your home soon.

As for accessing the internet from a random place like a bar/restaurant or in even a nursing home i think it is quite a good use of time because like someone else said you can show whoever is there in your case your sister all your pics or other things to cheer her up and make her smile :) Again take care and hope everything goes well :)

Yes! I have also accessed the internet through my laptop in a hospital and a nursing home. Those were the times that I have some important papers to finish but I didn't want to miss and help in the pregnancy of my sister in law. Also, I have brought my laptop into many other places just to access the internet before. But I don't have a myLot account yet at those times. I do access from the malls, in the passenger seat of our car, in the lobbies of the hotel and other places. I have been playing a browser based game which I am really committed into that's why I always try to access it whenever we have a war in that game. Being an addict to that game gives me the motivation to do so. And yes, I am still into this game, it already became a habit for me.

Hi....agent. Well, this is the first time that i have accessed mylot from a nursing home or better can say except home. But yes, sometimes i access from my college( if i have off class) and in case of emergency from cafe(my connection is slow hence videos dont play easily). Otherwise i am fine with home. This time as i have to guard her, hence i have found it the best way to stay away from loneliness
