Good morning! It's still dark out but it looks like it's going to be a beautiful day. When I was out on my balcony, I could see the stars in the sky and hear all the happy birds singing. It always lifts my heart.
I'm sitting in my recliner using my tablet as I mylot. I would prefer to use my laptop but I can't get comfortable using it while sitting. My feet bother me too much to sit in a chair so I don't have a choice but to sit in my recliner using my tablet. I've gotten really fast at using my one finger to type 
That had me thinking. What do you use when mylotting? Phone, tablet or computer?

I use a laptop, and sometimes the computer in the den. Would it be more comfortable if you got a laptop desk for your lap or even a lap tray to set the laptop on?

Tablemate.com has one that fits over the footrest on a recliner. You can sit fully reclined, pull up the table and MyLot.

Same as you, I like so much more my full keyboard and my big monitor, the tablet is a pain.

Just my laptop or desktop. I don't feel comfortable mylotting from my tablet or phone; especially phone.

I use my laptop mostly, but also my phone. How come you can't use your laptop while sitting in your recliner? I'm sitting in my recliner right now with my laptop!

@moffittjc It always wants to tip over. Maybe there is a trick to it that I haven't discovered yet.

@simone10 I understand that. My previous laptop didn’t sit well in my lap. My current one is bigger and sits better in my lap.

I have a desktop computer. I recently bought an Ipad and thought I had the hang of it but when wanted to use it it was during the virus so did not work so waiting for things to get better so my technician can come teach me. He is my computer technician and I got it for me.

@LindaOHio Ok, I will. I've saved it in my favorites so I can check on it periodically.

@simone10 Maybe they're made in China??? I don't know where they're made. Make sure you measure your footrest and compare it to the size of the table leg span.
