Just wanted to say hi guys.  Have been sitting on my sofa while I work on the PC recently, and because it is less comfortable (due to the angle) than sitting on my hard chair that numbs my bum, I have spent more time doing what I must online and less what I fancy in those few minutes in between.  Has also meant more time for reading and writing and singing and playing and tickling, and you get the idea right?  but not cleaning...lol...i still aint off my butt that much more yet.  Although E increasingly cleans more and more, so maybe i have a great mini slave int he making here.
Hope you all having a good new year
Peace

I actually got most of the house work done, went out, cleaned the car and the yard.  The only problem is I didn't get much done on Minti LOL.  but that is ok, lets see how well I do tomorrow with the rest of the house.

Doing good

by MarlenaComment Published at 10:3010:304 comments4 comments206 Visits206 VisitsReport

Doing good with the Minti intake.  When I was living with my mother-in-law I was on all the time.  Now I just go on in the morning for a bit and if there is nothign on Tv and Austin is occupied then I might find myself checking things out again but nothing to crazy like all day long like I was doing before.  I have my own place now to take care of and Austin is a handful needing lots of attention.

How are people doing with maintaining a healthy level of Minti in their lives? 

Somehow my computer has been behaving better these past few days, so I have been online more - but sat at it less!  Less time sitting here rebooting and then catching up from where I had to stop I guess.
At the end of the day though, I al still logged in here all day long along with my other regular sites, so that when i do sit for two minutes - or more, then I can check something quickly witout having to go through the whole signing in process each time.
How is everyone else doing?  Are implemented ideas/plans working?

On and Off

by exquisite-flowerComment Published at 14:4514:450 comments0 comments96 Visits96 VisitsReport

i do various things online every day of the week. i like to keep my PC on for extended periods of time because family around the world can hook up to my IM and leave messages for me or chat if I am available.  Often we find messages we leave for each other as we are all busy and we have all adopted this policy that if we are around stay logged in and we can at least say hi to each other, it is better than writing an email that only ever says hi. 

Based on this policy I tend to do the same with Minti  I will be logged in all day, but will do other things around it.  and it only takes 10 mins to check a piece of advice and vote on it, sometimes less if it is only a paragraph.  I then consider if I have a reply worth offering.  Sometimes I will do a few at a time if E is occupied and I have the concentration, else I come back and do another later on.  It works for me. 

Although I am on all day I spend about 3 or 4 hours on in total not including time spent just chatting.  Wow, that sounds heaps.  But let me break it down:  i know email takes me about a half hour, RLC takes me about 45 mins other sites take me up to a half hour and then there are also surveys that I do online for small change.  yes.  that must be about right.  When I have guests it cuts down to the one necessary hour to do RLC and sort email into folders ready for reading when I am next free.

Peace
