tess1960 Mom has always treated her grandchild much better than her great grandchild. Overnighters, trips to museums, entire weeks at grandmas house, over and over and over. And her great granddaughter begging for visits and feeling left out. I guess after 16 years of...

I feel love all around me . I have gone through a lot of bitterness, but I think I have to overcome that. Happiness should be an aim to make us feel better. The beauty of life begins upon waking up. You know God loves you for the...

tess1960 Happiness must come from within and not from without. Meaning the things that surround us must not be the only things that make us happy. Things can come and go, even people can come and go. Everyone goes through hardship and bitterness. The ones that learn a...

Everyone is trying to attract attention on mylot. We all want more and more attention. We want people to stop by and drop off comments. I sometimes get this mental image of us all standing in a big group shouting “Me! Me! Me! Pay...

Taking this challenge from @Maggs224 and @Auntylou. I don't remember much before the age of 9. What I remember I can't necessarily pin an age to. 1. I remember when my parents were away, as they did every year for a convention,...

I have been inspired to write about bacon or rather the smell of it after reading a post by @Raelove she had posted an article about bacon which is worth a read and rate and of course your opinion on it too! There are some things...

tess1960 Mmmmm....bacon! I love this particular food. Enjoyed your article. You are so right that the scent of bacon can wake a slumbering person. Don't count bacon out completely in America. Not everyone cooks bacon to a burnt crisp here. I like mine as you described....

tess1960 MAnty eat their main meal at lunch time and a smaller meal in the evening. I am told it is healthier. Personally I eat my bigger meal for supper as that is when my hubby and I can sit and eat a meal together. We are overweight and that is probably why. If you...

Just curious to know how you all promote your mylot referral link, or if you even promote at all? I know there are traffic exchange sites online that I've been trying out but it doesn't seem to be affective at all. Are you guys...

tess1960 I placed my referral code anywhere I could find to paste it when I first joined. I also sent invites to about 30 people that I lnow. I got maybe 5 responces. Some join and then never do anything. It is hard to get revenue from referrals unless you have a big...

LOL or Laugh/Laughing Out Loud is too mainstream. Do you ever get tired of laughing out loud? I think I should refrain from using that acronym. Do you think SOW (smile out wide) is a good alternative?

tess1960 wow, you sure did get a lot of responses to this discussion. Well done! I too think I often use LOL too much. I like the CUL (Chuckle a Little). I like emoticons too as some of them are just perfect for the short and sweet response or the gut wrenching yuck...
