I feel like I'm neglecting my myLot "friends".

This box is hilarious! The side effects of Lotting are now Obama's fault too!

Hey! Why not? He's being blamed for almost everything else? Can I blame him for my going to sleep and not waking in time to get supper made in time to eat at the regular suppertime? I just did that.

Your butt goes to sleep?? Now that's a visual for Sunday morning, isn't it?? I usually just skim over my emails as opposed to opening them, but perhaps I will actually start using my email notifications to help me manage through the myLot neighborhood. I've just learned about the recent tab. I mean, I know it has been there all along, it's just that I didn't use it until yesterday. I blame Obama Just kidding!

Well, if you are answering things from your e-mail then, no, you're not being neglectful. Many times I don't answer things from my e-mail, I usually just skim over my emails as opposed to looking through them. 39 thousand posts...you, GardenGerty, are a rockstar

I try to always go back to the discussions that I have started and make sure that I respond to them, because if I don't then I really feel bad about it It is always good to finish what you start...most of the time anyway. Of course there are exceptions to every rule. Yes, I was neglecting my friends without knowing it, I intend to do better by dedicating certain days to friends only. That way I will stay focused on them and be more attentive.

Yes, I skip all over too, but I want to settle down more

You love all members?? That is so sweet myLot is definitely a lot of fun

Do either of you use the 'recent' tab? Everything goes there. Each time a discussion receives activity it goes to the top of the list. If you go there and refresh the page often (once a minute for example) you will see how many, and who, are posting and where too. Old and new topics appear there as long as they get some activity.

Have not used the recent tab yet! myLot is like a huge onion...one gets to constantly peel back the layers... This diet that I'm on has me thinking about food...

I like you!!

Here comes the distraction. Good luck with your target today. As I'm sure its going to be hectic just to comment on all the responses that you have received throughout the month. Good day!

Hi Mimo and well done on your new suit! Imust get back over to your topic too and catch up there. Oh boy, why are there only 24 hours in a day? Having a lot of friends doesn't give me the right to neglect them though and next month I will probably decide not to start any topics of my own and spend all the time on theirs. There are so many to choose from that it won't be difficult! I saw that you have added a response on quite a few of mine but I wasn't sure if you were following notifers or the 'started' list. Now I know

@mysdianait...Hmm, I think that is what I'll do, I'll dedicate some time, perhaps certain days, to only responding to my friends and their discussions. @ no one in particular...On a totally separate note, just sending this out into space...I totally want some turkey bacon right now. Yummy. And I need a pot of coffee brewing too. I adore Saturday mornings

With people like you telling me not to feel guilty, I'm almost starting to almost not feel guilty about this whole thing (Just between you and me, I consider using this very rude, but I thought it fit the situation here, you know like I don't feel guilty anymore!) In order to really "do" myLot right, I think one has to invest time into it, and since that time can be oft times limited (oft times limited...now I'm starting to wax poetic??, I need more coffee)...(don't mind me Hatley, I'm just having a conversation with myself...while I'm writing you lol) ...and since that time can be oft times limited, I want to better use my myLotting time. I have found that sometimes I will give responses to people that I have never even heard of before on here, and yet my friend's discussions don't get any input from me. But...as I told someone else, I plan to right my myLot wrongs, and try to dedicate certain days to only writing to friends :) And you Hatley, with this 53 thousand posts!!! Uuuughhh, you people just slay me with these 10's of thousands of posts!! Raising the bar much for us poor newbies???! Gosh darn, do you know how long I would have to type in order to get to your level of accomplishment here?? Just for the fun of it, I think that I should actually start trying to catch you...wonder how long it would take me??

I understand, because sometimes friends can discuss things that we are not familiar with or that we are not interested in, but I find that I don't respond to my friends much at all. I want to change that, so I'm going to dedicate a few days a week to just looking over my friend's discussions and responding to them instead of being all over the place.

@ "they're my priority here on myLot" See, that is how I feel, however, I have not been acting like it. Sorry to say, I had not even realized that I was being inattentive to them until just 3 days ago. I plan to embark on a mission to right my myLot wrongs. I'm going to designate certain days where I only respond to my friends here on myLot, that way I will condition myself to stay on task and not get distracted by other things here.

That's good that you don't neglect your friends here. Believe me, I did not even realize that I was doing such a thing until I realized just a couple of days ago that I don't go to my friends pages and look for their discussions, I always seem to be on the home page looking there. I have decided that I am going to start dedicating certain days to only respond to discussions that my friends have going on. That will make me feel like I am being attentive and not neglecting anyone.
