Man that was a long 2 months!
I missed myLot and my friends here so much! I hope you missed me, as much too. I went off the grid for two months because of unable to pay bills. Now I am back and this should not be happening in a long time! I am so glad to be back!
The catching up part will be tricky...
When I say "off the grid" I mean that, literally. I have not been that secluded in my life and though I didn't go crazy at times I thought I did. I read a lot, about 7 novels in that 2 month period. I played every game I have on both the consoles I own and other than that... I guess I prayed a lot. It went by slowly but here I am, I made it.
I think I have learned a lot about myself in these two months.
Hiiii myLot!!!! *hugs tightly and never lets go!*

I am going to say it again... wooHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I am so pleased to see you back again echo and I am certain that I am not alone at all. Several of us missed you, though some knew, as you had warned us, that you might disappear.
We will hang on tight to you now as there is no better place to spend the upcoming holidays!

Sometimes the priorities of bills even they get over looked when you can't pay them.
I plan to start off where I left off, that means, being quite active here.

I'm already having fun so that will tell you something!
This is a great Christmas present for me. Especially being gone so long, I do appreciate it more.

I had left MyLot for a little while, but I came back again because I need some extra cash.

echo! Welcome back!!!! I was wondering the other day when you would show up again. It's good to see you here. I've missed your contributions. Seven books???? Wow. That's a lotta readin' there. I hope they were good stories. Seems it was a somewhat enlightening time for you as well. I don't think I want to learn anymore about myself. What I've learned so far is too scary. Good thing you had some games to play. They're good for making the time go by fast. And praying is always a good thing. I'm glad you made it through a tough time and came out none the worse for wear (I hope). Welcome home to mylot!!!

alas...? Not all bad, I'm sure. A little insight into one's self is good once in a while. Reassessment is a necessary evil. Cheer up. You are loved and welcomed back with open arms in mylot! It's understandable that you missed mylot. It's a connection. A kind of lifeline at times. But your time away seems to have been well spent and it's behind you now. The future is brighter, I hope.

Yes the future here looks bright as it did before, as for the rest of the world that is still unclear.
I am having a hard time getting into the groove but I know it will come back like riding a bike. I am somewhat humbled by my warm welcome back so far. This does show the great community that myLot is.

Hello! Good to see you deazil. I was not sure how long I'd be gone either but it was long enough.
Yes those were good stories I read. myLot was still sorely missed. The interaction here is priceless. I didn't expect I'd learn more about myself, alas...

Hi Echoforever. Nice to meet you.
I had been off myLot for about 5 years...even though I did pop in a time or 2 or 3. I've been back here for about the last 3 weeks and try to keep busy with responding to discussions and even starting a few of my own. When I get back to school in about 3 weeks, I'll be spending less time here. I'm going to try to make the payout by the end of this month but don't really see it happening as I have only $1.41 built up so far.

I know we all come here for a little extra pay but really I see my earnings soar when I am having fun. Keep this in mind, maybe it will be the same for you as well.

Hey this is not you but almost every members here don't want or do not like to leave this place. Once we become the member of this site literally we fall in love with Mylot. If we does not log inhere for one day then we feel like we have missed something or missing something. So without fail we make the point to log in and see what new (post and discussion)are their so that we can share our views, grab some new knowledge and give something back (in form of knowledge and ideas) to other members.
Hey don't hug too much other your real life partner will be jealous of your this (Mylot) friend

This show how much you love to be on Mylot and the reason for this may be you don't like missing your friends and also some extra earning also that you may get here from taking part in different activities here at Mylot.

You are right with both of those. I enjoy my friends and over all my time here. This is the one site I consider my time to be an asset, where as most of the time, it is not.

A lot of the members dispise being away just as I do! But there are some out there whom don't mind a break like mine, or longer! Not me though I don't wish to go that long without my myLot friends again.

Hi Echoforever, nice to meet you...I mean welcome back!!!!!
Im glad you are back here, I missed you too and wondering when you will be back here. See I've passed your rating but I bet soon you'll pass my rating, let's see who reach the 1000 rating first.
Well, I can't stay a lot here I have a lot of works to do (must finish my thesis before July 2013, then start on January I no longer work as a part time worker but as an apprentice, and then I have craft target to make minimum 12pieces/day) Although Im not really away from here like you did, I have little time for mylot so I know what you feel for not having mylot for 2 months . Hope to see you again anytime soon, I have to go back to my class.

FF! I missed you!!!
These things sound like good opportunities in your life although I know becoming so busy can be rough. Don't worry too much about us here in myLot, we are always here... unless we take a break like I just did. When things slow down again on your end I know you will give myLot your attention again... we miss you while you're away.
Glad to see you FF, I think you will surpass me in the 1000 rating, you're very close!

Good to have you back!
I'm sure you will be a lot more active around here since you miss mylot so much. I just got back to being more active also. For around 6 months I was inactive though occasionally I get to visit here.

I am glad to know that you are back to mylot again. Well, I was also not active her for some months due to my exams and due to some personal matters. Now I am totally free and I will try to devote myself most of the time over here.
Happy Mylotting

Hi echo!
It's good to know that you were able to pay your bills already. You should work for more so you will not run out of money for your bills. We really missed you! Welcome back!

Hi friend, welcome back. it is really hard to miss this great site even a day, since we are very much attached with this site. Just allocate 5 to 10 minutes per day to this site to keep in touch with your friends, hope you will stay here for a long and my wishes for it

Oh I'll be spending more time here than that daily again. It was impossible for me to come here at all in those two months though. It was hard!

It's good that you have made it back to myLot now.
I must say that your reaction to getting back to myLot seems pretty close to the one I had when we crossed back over the Mason-Dixon line and I was again in the North after spending a year in Florida.
I don't think that anyone would fare very well if I went for very long without internet. I think that a couple of weeks would be my maximum for going sans internet, and I'm fairly certain that my boyfriend would never risk such a thing.

I'm semi-chuckling here at your comment because a lot of what you said is the same for me. I don 't fare well without internet for long. This was the worst of my breaks from the net though.
I am truly glad that span is over with.

Welcome back!. I, like you, took a little time off too, as I was doing other things, and just couldn't find the time to come in here. I have come to the realization that I missed my time in here, as I have had so much fun, and wanted to get it back. That is what mylot is all about, as when you start having fun, and don't worry about your earnings, you end up doing better. Try it, as it has happened to me. Sure, making money is great, but it shouldn't be the only reason for being here. I have been having a lot of fun, since I came back, and I hope to keep on having fun too. Take care, and have fun mylotting.

I am glad you realized that you missed myLot. Those are the kinds of people I like to have here. The money is of course great... its just that when you realize you miss myLot and not the money I feel that is much better. The fun is also the key here.
