I've decided to leave mylot

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 6 Oct 21

Some of you may be curious as to where I have been, that is the reason I am making this post. I've not been on mylot since the 19th of September as I decided to take a hiatus. I won't go into details as to why that is, but I...

Challenging myself

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 19 Sep 21

I feel the need to challenge myself. While I won't be telling anyone the exact reasoning for the challenge, or what the challenge is, I will be reporting as much as I can about some things I've done that day. Today I've watched...

Spaghetti for dinner

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 19 Sep 21

Keto Spaghetti that is. I feel weird even saying that because honestly the only "keto" thing about it are the shirataki noodles. I'm not the biggest fan of those noodles to be honest. Sometimes I add onions, green (bell)...

How do you defeat burnout?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 18 Sep 21

That is, when you've been going and going with work and just pressures of life and then BAM! You can't do it anymore. There's just no desire to do any of it. It is definitely not easy to get forward momentum going, so I'm...

Kinetic Sand

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 17 Sep 21

I picked up some kinetic sand that some of you may have seen on youtube videos featuring ASMR. I don't believe kinetic sand is necessarily new (I'm sure it's the same thing used in sand art) but it is popular right now. Well,...

What social customs should we retire?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 16 Sep 21

Things like handshaking, bowing, phrasing like "how do you do" etc. What is something that is overdone and could be retired without consequences? I think handhshaking could be replaced with bowing. Same for hugs. This...

What invention do you think will be completely obsolete in the future?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 16 Sep 21

The first thing that comes to mind might as well be considered obsolete now. That is, the home telephone. Most people use their cellphones now. I often wonder if things like a laptop and computer will become obsolete because...

What's a superstition that people in your country / culture follow?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 10 Sep 21

I guess the ones that come to mind are the black cat one (unfortunately), the ladder (don't walk under), and the crack in a sidewalk one. I am sure that I am forgetting quite a few of them, so please if there are others you can...

What song(s) do you know word for word?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 9 Sep 21

Curious question. I think we all have a song memorized, and maybe that song changes. I don't have a song currently memorized. I guess there is not just one song that I've been singing lately, but rather a few. What songs can you...

What is the biggest threat to mankind in your opinion?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 8 Sep 21

My answer is so simple it doesn't take much space to write it. We are. We're the biggest threat to ourselves. We destroy each other, ourselves, and the planet. I could go on and on and on about this, but I'll just say that we...

Sweet Tooth

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 6 Sep 21

Woke up wanting to make something sweet. Will have to wait until I do my weekly grocery shop. I have all the ingredients for one thing but that isn't ultimately what I want. Keto, obviously. Keto sweets are delicious. How's...

I started as I was making my breakfast. I opened the cabinet as the coffee was brewing and threw away things that had expired. I turned around, said "oops, I need to start my meal" and popped two egg whites with spinach and...

Would you like my laundry list of to-do's?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 3 Sep 21

Sometimes we just do not think of the things we could do to make our world's a little tidier. I've been thinking about those things the past two days. For one, I need to take everything out of the cabinet that has expired....

Shooting at a HS yesterday

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 2 Sep 21

The second in our state in as many months. I learned about it because a friend's sister was close by and freaking out. The friend messaged me about it. The HS is several miles away, nowhere near me really. One student dead, I...

What has / do you believe people learn by being exposed to the wealthy?

AmberLynn @ScribbledAdNauseum (104628) • United States 1 Sep 21

Or for that matter, the less fortunate? What have you learned by being exposed to an income bracket that is not your own? I grew up poor. I am poor now. I know how to save, but I also know how to spend (sometimes too much). I...

What is a subject, either online or off, that you could talk about for hours? I consider myself to be an extroverted introvert. I need lots of time to just be in my own head and think, but I also enjoy some conversations here and...
