What do you do when you have been gone from MyLot for a while?
Do you go through your suggested discussions or just delete them all?
I missed a lot of time here last month.
I had two uncles die.
I had a job interview~ which I didn't get BTW.
I had a bunch of little pity parties.
So, I have over 100 suggestions.
At first I wasn't sure what to do.
I left them.
Today I started going back and doing more.
I still have over 100, but I am getting there.
Do you just start over or answer weeks old discussions?
What are your reasons?
I just don't want to ignore the suggestion.

I usually get through all of them easily Ruth, but I am able to get on nearly everyday, if I miss a day, I just get to as much as I can.
Welcome and no worries if you cant do all you want to do at once.

@Gwensmom Yeah just get to them when you can and you know they ARE just suggestions, you dont have to answer everyone. Hope you are feeling okay today Ruth.

@TiarasOceanView I am better than yesterday, but not getting anything done either. I need to make applesauce and clean the bathroom. Hopefully tomorrow.
I know they are just suggestions, but I try to answer them if I can.

I would definitely start with the most recent suggestions, but only read those that you think might be interesting. I don't think I would bother with those more than a couple of weeks old, as the discussions would most likely be finished.

I have never stayed away that long but my suggest box is busting at the seams which I do not open. I have other avenues to get what I want.

First i go to my notifications and do them one by one and delete them as i finished it . That way , it is clear to me if ever i stop along the way that the ones showing in my notification were those i haven't read yetv. As to suggestions , which i do next i choose the ones i like to read and delete all those i am Not interested with .

I think I will leave them and do a few here or there. Faster than going through all the lists to find one to do. Some days, I find it tricky to find on that jumps out at me. Other days, there are plenty.
Ah, me and my moods.

I think I will leave them sitting where they are and get to them as I have time.

It is fun. Many moons ago, I used to spend all day here.
I might end up doing that again.
