I took a short half day trip to the farm on Monday morning. I caught up on my friends discussions etc. Well when I returned I was dead tired so waitied till Tues. morning to catch up once again. Let me tell you with 71 friends it was a rough time to say the least. I had one friend on my list even start a discussion asking where I was as I hadn't posted or responded for awhile. I wish to thank this friend here. You know whom you are. I also want to say a HUGE thanks to myLot for this great site. Take care all & have a great time here. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!

We all need to do other things in our lives besides My Lot. Hope you had a good time at the farm.

I did notice that you're a little quite a few days ago. I thought that you didn't have any ideas to post down here. Its good to hear you're back once again. keep up the good works and happy posting, grandpa.

Well, Good to see that so much active member of myLot even spares his time to his own family and personal life. Thats so great and surprising one. Don't worry about the rest when you get yourself engaged with your personal commitments. I would frankly add that I don't know how you become indispensible for me but really missed you alot. I think that you are the luckiest one how much love and sentiments you have from mylotters. Welcome back Grandpa Bob.

It's alright Grandpa Bob, you don't need to reply to all. Why, if you do that, you will need more than 1 day to clear 1 day's worth of discussions! :P So I pick and choose now too. ;-)

Well, your discussion doesnt ask for a specific response so I'll just say what effect your topic had on ME, which was, you reminded me that having friends here on mylot means interacting with them and exchanging responses to discussions! I'd totally forgot the advantage and purpose of making more friends here, partly because of my own style of working (I usually stay inactive for a couple of days and then have a "binge" of posts) and partly because, as I remember, most of my friends hadn't replied to my private messages when some time ago, I tried to interact with them. Anyway, now I'll clear away the inactive and usless friends and try to build up a friends network as enviable as yours!

Some of us actually start discussions saying that we are leaving, so friends will not worry. Isn't it great to be missed? We are glad you are here. I guess you will not die in front of your tv and sit for a year before you are missed.

I know what you mean, about "catching up." I went out-of-state for three days over the weekend, to help a friend move, and catching back up takes a lot of work. This site does have a really nice sense of "community," though, doesn't it?

Yes it does feel more like a community to me at times. It's become a second home for me as I'm home 24/7 taking care of my father. Thanks for the response also. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!

Good Grief now you know you're missed when no one hears from you. I was away to the city for doctors appointment so I wasn't on myLot all day, but it wouldn't have taken long before we'd all noticed you were missing. Take care.

It dont take much to miss someone on here Bob, especially when they respond in such color as yourself, its a gift sometimes to see a post from you, and with 71 friends on your list, there are many people that miss you when you are away...its good to have you back, and I hope that your day away was a very pleasant, I'm sure you deserved it.

At the end there it seemed like you were leaving the site. I post alot everyday i guess maybe 30 a day. Well, that may not be a lot for some people but for me it is a lot. I hope the farm was good...

Hey, glad that you're back. I actually went through my friends listed & deleated over half of them. I had 70 something friends & now I think it's like in the low 30's. Then I turned the notifiy on for everyone of them. That way it'll be easier to make sure I respond to all of there discussions. Welcome back! Hope you had a nice trip to the farm!
