Nope, I am not complaining. It's just an observation of my whereabouts everyday. This month August, I was everyday here trying to make a payout for this month but I don't think I will be able to. It's September now and I have to make a schedule for my writing endeavour. I still have a lot to write in my other blogs and at my main writing site hubpages. I have written a plan what to write before I flew to the Philippines. Ideas are there but nothing is done. Well, these spontaneous coming in of visitors distracted me from my plan. I think I have to lock my room and tell the people in the house that I am working and not to be disturb. But then, I would miss those people especially if I have not seen them for ages. Hmm.... What will you do if you are in my shoes? Lie to the people that I am not here? Anyway, I will not be here the whole day at Mylot anymore. I have to have a schedule. Enjoy your new month September guys. Ciao. BTW, I will be making hibiscus tea today

Be with your guests, and if your online stuff doesn't get done, don't worry about it.

@thelme55 They think you are rich because you live abroad and are married to a Eurpean. My daughter-in-law has the same problem when she goes home to Thailand. She has paid for a lovely new house for her family there, but they don't realise that she works 12 hours a day in order to have been able to do it.

I am always with my guests unless somebody will come whom I don`t know personally and want to borrow money from me. I am not a money lender but some people here in the Philippines thought I am rich @jaboUK

@jaboUK yes, you are right. my parents realized that because they were in Germany and Holland for 3 months and they have seen how we live there. It is only my father now whom I have to attend to and her caregiver whom I called my "adopted" daughter. She is my 23 years old cousin who lives until now with my 82 years old father in our house since she was still a 7 years old girl. She said, it´s her payback time to her uncle who took care and sent her to school. We are lucky to have her in the house. We call her our guardian angel

That's a very pretty hibiscus. I think friends are more important than MyLot really. And I'm sure you'd agree.

I would take things as they come,.. too much planning doesn't seem to work.. I haven't written in hubpages for years now.. though I do see my hubs being chosen for something or the other.. I am out of hubpages I guess. the only site I am on regularly is mylot.

@sofssu but do you still get paid by hubpages for passive income even if you're no longer submitting new articles?

I agree with you. Planning is only up to planning. I have not written for a year at hubpages but I regularly visit my hubs and edit them if they are not featured so that all of them are featured as I want them to be. Mylot is really a good site to interact with our friends online and when I am here, I forgot all the things around me @sofssu

If you lie might only be lieing to yourself so best not to. I feel I need to write less on the site and more somewhere else too.

I find that myLot is such an easygoing place to earn our extra funds. None of this submitting and waiting and possible rejection. We just get to be ourselves and talk about what we want to. I love it here. I did write an article on another site and will see how it goes, but it will never be another myLot! Wishing you luck on your other sites, too.

Yes, I am doing that @acelawrites. Just wash the hibiscus flowers. Put them in a pot and add boiling water in it. Wait for 5 minutes and drain. Add a calamansi juice and sugar in it before drinking. I have written about how to make this tea in my blogspot site. I wonder if I am allowed to post the link here. I have to read the FAQ again.
