Teresa Schultz's Responses

anyone remember me?

John King @ison_1 (1240) 9 Mar 16

I stare into the blackness, I see nothing. I shout at the void, I hear nothing. Dull senses, ineffectual nerve endings What's it all for?

What else is there to say? when there's not much to exaggerate. I don't wanna sound like some one who writes to much. I remember on mylotter who did that, she just wents her response and comments from one paragraph to the other....

Teresa Schultz I really appreciate longer responses, and try to give longer responses myself. Sometimes my responses get a little long, even! It's fun interacting, and the more one does, the more one earns, and it's easier to interact when responses are longer than just one...

paigea @paigea (36318) • Canada 19 Feb 16

Today the power company has a planned power outage from 1:30 to 4:30. I filled the big gallon (why gallons in Canada?) camping jug with water and I filled some jugs with drinking water. Then I planned my errands so I will...

Teresa Schultz Your post is a reminder that I should feel so happy we haven't had power outages in a good few months now. We were having them all the time for a long time, every day, two hours a day, and sometimes two sessions of that a day. If we were lucky, there'd be a...

Teresa Schultz I wasn't sure if the country I live in (South Africa) issues this kind of report, so went to look quickly. I didn't look very long but gave up. If we do issue this kind of report it's not quick to find, or not published online at all. What I did see in Google...

Over and Out

DianneN @DianneN (247186) • United States 12 Mar 16

Teresa Schultz I love the beach; looking for driftwood and sea glass on the beach, more than a concious walk on the beach, but looking for driftwood and sea glass one does walk a lot on the beach - and one even squats a lot too - if one bends as one should to pick something...

Around My House Photos

mor @stringer321 (5644) • Kiryat Ata, Israel 8 Jan 13

I had to throw the trash so I decided Why not uploading some photos of my neighborhood around the house. Every single picture can show many things and many stories at once.

Teresa Schultz I agree. Photos can really help one a lot with topics to write about. Just describing a photo, everything about it, in it, related to taking it, could end up being several pages of writing.
