I absolutely love this place. Always have and always will. I just haven't and can't come here nearly as much as I used to. Last time I came here was about 2 or 3 months ago to do a few reviews so I could renew membership and do a few things here. Now I came here to check mail and see what's going on. I was surprised to see I wasn't kicked out of any groups for being inactive. One group was saying I didn't affiliate the group with my reviews. Oops. Forgot that part. Bare with me everyone. I love this place and always will but things are different than they were years ago when I made it to yellow folder and I got that revoked for becoming inactive for a bit. oops.
It's been a little bit since I've been here. Probably a week. I will never stop coming here,
as wdc has a place in my heart. I really have not done much at all here though since I got back into working 3 years ago. I've tried to come periodically and read things at least but then that stopped and for a long time I've just been looking at newsfeed and mail. I came here just a few minutes ago and saw that I had been gifted an upgraded membership from anonymous! What a nice little surprise. Would love to know who anonymous is though. lol I know that won't happen though. So whoever you are, thanks!
Ok I really do not know where the time is going. I do procrastinate all the time with writing. Now I procrastinate with wdc. Got an e mail (you havent been to wdc in 2 weeks) 2 weeks? :O I do work a lot. Then when I'm not working, I'm playing games or running around. Hey, if you see this and I am in your group, go ahead and remove me. It really is not fair to all the other members in the group that I am just laying there dormant. I'd remove myself from them but I seriously don't want to willingly leave. Just thought I'd say hey and I really have not forgotten about wdc. WDC will always have a place in my heart.
This is my wdc check in. lol Just saying I am alive and very happy. Have not even had a bad day at work and I've been there since the tail end of June. I STILL have not reviewed but I still have the intentions to. If you see this and I am in your reviewing group but you are tired of never hearing anything out of me, go ahead and remove me if you want. One day I swear I will review again. lol I am off tomorrow. Maybe I will be able to review for each group tomorrow.
I have been super quiet here lately. Just have been going over my stuff here and reading a few things here and there but not reviewing. (Due to my mind drifting off to work half the time. Not because of the things I read bore me here because they do not at all! Perhaps I have a temporary reading A.D.D lol)
Anyway, I wanted to stop bye and tell everyone hi! If you see this, please say hi back and tell me what you've been up to! Hope all of you in wdc land are doing great!
Joey, I did not say anything like I had malaise of summer. I do not suffer from anything. I LOVE 96 degree weather! I work outside. I was saying I do not sit here and read stuff when I could be out enjoying the weather. And I have my mind drift off to work as I read anyway. So I do not read. lol
*Jenny* I have definitely broken down and cried several times already and probably many more times to come. It's a bit easier coming to terms this way that she won't be with us much longer versus just losing her out of the blue one day and being unprepared.
Joey Says...Where's Winter? We do have a recorder in case we can get her to tell us some of the family stuff and stories she's told many of us (some of which would have several of at least her Grandkids balling if it was played at her funeral.) I'm unsure if we'll be able to...she's very groggy on medication. We do have some great memories already stored, which we should write down and combine in a journal of sorts.
Just like before when I started working, I had not done much at wdc. I have read stuff but I have not reviewed much at all since working again. I started a new job. I am a courtesy clerk at Shop N Save. Those are the people that collect carts. When I come home I turn on tv, get on fb and play a few games, then get on wdc and see if I got any mail and delete items in my portfolio or read some of my old stuff, amazed. Yes, I amaze myself. Is that a bad thing? I totally planned to do a bunch of things here but since I'm working now, I just want to come home and mindlessly veg out. Or I go to wal mart or hang out with a friend. So GabriellaR45 with all that said, I 100% fully intended to be an active monthly rising star reviewer but the way it looks, I do not know when I will be able to really review. It is still early in July though. I am hoping within a couple days I will get 'er done.
And now back to your regular scheduled program already in progress.
The last 2 days of my review goal has been bad for reviews. I was super tired yesterday and didn't do any then. Now today my kid is watching tv in the room I do surveys in and such. Color me crazy but I think I concentrate best when silent
Tell you the truth, I wasn't gonna come to wdc today. I was not even thinking of wdc.
This day has gone so well for me! Started off the day with a phone call telling me that I got hired at my local grocery store! Then I went running around with a friend who is the mother of my niece and I haven't actually done that in 2 years with her. I then was going to come here and share my news but then I saw that my membership has been renewed. Someone actually renewed my membership. Well, it was through RAOK. So thank you RAOK! And thank you Joy ! I was just going to review until I got enough points to renew. But I still have the goal of getting to the number one reviewer ranking spot. I will be coming back here in about an hour or so. Got a few more things to get done.
Holy crap! Ok I was gone from here for a couple years..... still peeking in and checking things out every so often. I have not reviewed or wrote anything in a few years here. I came back (yet again) 3 days ago to buckle down around here and do some reviews, so I can get enough points again to renew. I just checked my rank on the review board and I am #74. SEVENTY FOUR in three days. Holy crap! I should be doing game of thrones or something now. (Is that still a thing? I'm not into the show though) Well anyway, I am off to do some more reviews. I have a goal to get to the number one spot now. I have had that goal once before.
For me to really get into things, to get motivated, or just for the pure fun of it I like to pretend. I need to rack up gift points to get a membership and unlock my items, etc. Here's the thing. If I do not review 1 to 3 things a day, something weird or bad is going to happen. For every day that I do not review anything, an alien from outer space is going to abduct a human. That could be bad or it could be really cool. I enjoy aliens, so I think it'd be pretty cool. It will happen to someone though that hates aliens and wants to stay firmly on earth. So with that said, I better start reviewing so I can save the earth!
I used to be really active here. Then I got a job that was only seasonal but I still didn't do much on this site when I wasn't working. On May 4th, I got fired and right away I started looking for another job. No one has hired me. Every place is only hiring for 1 position but interviewing more than 1. It's like a competition. I'm not good in competitions. Well I have been doing a ton of surveys daily for money. I almost have enough to get a tattoo done. Anyway, I feel really bad about not being as active as I was once before here. I still talk about wdc. And I still come here just to look around at things. I am going to start reviewing again though. I need to renew my membership. So I need to get points. I wish I was still a yellow folder but I had to go mess that up. lol I was gone from here for a good year or so. And in a weird semi related topic....I wonder if when I die, how wdc would know. I am guessing because of fb. I have some friends there that are from here. I know that no one in my personal life is going to get on wdc and say what happened. Just a thought.
Wow! Good to see you! Yep Changes are happening everywhere it seems. Keep up a good vibe and keep asking How does it get even better than this? What could I create that even my mind can't imagine? Open for the inspiration.
Yep, good to see you back reviewing: good activity to focus the mind off of the "problems". LOL
I can relate to the last part as I am on my own as well. One good thing is I will be gone, soo..would not really concern me then. Folks would get the vibe as I would haunt them. LOL Actually, I do have stuff written in a notebook all my various endeavours in my will file as well. I leave it to whoever wants to play! I would likely have it all deleted. Which ever of my siblings ends up with it will do something I am sure to let folks know here. Live and enjoy now. Be grateful and live the day.
northernwrites Good to know. I think I did read that somewhere.
I have not been here in about at least a couple months. There should be more hours in the day. Why do I ever have to sleep? I could get a lot done if I did not have to sleep. Well, honestly, a lot of what I have been doing is making lists and playing all forms of candy crush. I just started back up at work a few weeks ago. That is only weekends now but wil be all week long sometime next month. I have a pen pal I have been trying to write back since December....I just needed stamps but whenever I thought of it, the post office was closed. I borrowed a couple stamps last night. I will write that letter tomorrow or later tonight. I thought "Hmmm before I go to the list site, I'll pop over at wdc! I am glad I did. I will always love wdc! Instead of me going to the list site, I think I'm going to actually review things here.....til I start itching to go make a list.
