Guest guest Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Sometimes, when folks get busy and there are a lot of posts we can all fall into a habit of scanning and then answering those posts that hit us the strongest. That doesnt' mean that the others are not important but it does mean that sometimes posts get missed. We also have Yahoo, and the rather too often occurrence where posts are lost to 'cyber space'. I'd like to remind everyone that if you have made a post and get no responses within 24 hours to post again, or call attention to the post as did. I saw that her post came around dinner time yesterday... so it would have missed all those that were already off line for the day and some folks aren't on yet in the morning. We all do have varied schedules and come from all over the world.. that's why 24 hours is a good time frame.. give folks a chance to see the posts.... Personally, try to shut down by 9 pm, my time.. and usually don't get back on until about 6 am... Yesterday evening I had a chance to head into town for groceries and got way behind on the emails that were sent over the next few hours.... I'm working on catching up, though...

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 I work nights (not evenings), on a rotating schedule, with varying nights off. Most of the time I'm on in the mornings for a short while, though it was much longer, til I started falling asleep right where I was sitting, lol! Then, most of my nights off, I'm on the groups til the wee hrs of the morning, but sometimes I have to walk away for periods because I need other " me time " . Everyone needs that at times. Then, I also have been having problems with freeze ups on my puter, and it's a little old man of a computer, so there's that also.
