tuggers Posted October 19, 2006 #1 Share Posted October 19, 2006 That was a question that was asked of me on another thread. I really don't think I spend THAT much time on here. I am retired (early) and since the Amazon trip I have a health condition that requires me to take fequent breaks during the day to rest. I have a laptop (wireless) and will fire it up when I lay down. I do a lot of my posting from bed. I have always been an insomniac so I do that late at night. All in all, I am probably on about four times a day. I do have a life. I work with an animal rescue, I read, I write, I am on several community and church boards and committees, I chair some charity boards, I help with an elderly friend, I shop, I volunteer, I take classes and I sometimes teach. I have a pretty full life for a retired, handicapped person. Don't know how I ever found the time for all that corporate mumbo jumbo before I retired. Oh yeah, and I cruise!! Frequently!! So how do you find time for the boards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Texed Posted October 19, 2006 #2 Share Posted October 19, 2006 So how do you find time for the boards? I do not have the time, and I am never here.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodPat Posted October 19, 2006 #3 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Gail, I find time to go on these boards about 4 times a day. I have always been a multi-tasker. I have a very busy life but I thrive on it. So checking in here is a time for me to rest and take time to learn a few things I did not know before. I love to read and reading here is so much fun. See you Saturday. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how do you find time for the boards? Being retired certainly does help. I also have wireless and a laptop so can work almost anywhere. I am building a new house and am on the computer a lot trying to research everyting I can that will be going into the house. Also, makes it a lot easier as many of you know I got very lucky in Vegas in June.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slotaddict Posted October 19, 2006 #5 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I would say I am here about 4X a day. I check the boards before I start working, in fact I am working now.:eek: Lunch time and at night after I settle down, watch a little tv with my laptop, check the boards and repeat the process the next day.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvufan Posted October 19, 2006 #6 Share Posted October 19, 2006 My puter is next to the TV, so I get on the boards a lot when I'm also watching a show. Of course, back when I was working for the government, I had a lot more time to play on the puter:D OOOEEE:D :D Bob and Phyl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogsrule Posted October 19, 2006 #7 Share Posted October 19, 2006 :p It looks like we have a couple of things in common: I am into animal rescue as well and have had to go part time because of a health condition. I do try to help those who can't help themselves whenever I can and I CRUISE......without apology!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheilaNC Posted October 19, 2006 #8 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I am retired from my previous job teaching at a university. Work part-time mostly using computer and have notification of posts of my favorite threads...just a few minutes is all I need to read and/or respond when the spirit moves me. AND I've learned so much and, hopefully, helped a few people. These boards are part of my cruising life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teedee Posted October 19, 2006 #9 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I am sadly not yet retired, but a lot of my work is on the computer so I keep this site minimized and pop in and out whenever I have a few free minutes during the day. Gotta have my cruise fix! Terri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue46 Posted October 19, 2006 #10 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I am a multi tasker as well. I generally keep a screen open to CC while I am working, and when things are quiet I cruise the sight. Of course somedays days are just too busy and I don't get on at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuggers Posted October 19, 2006 Author #11 Share Posted October 19, 2006 m steve, so there you go. More than you ever wanted to know about how I spend so much time on the boards. Also threw in how others do it. I think it is interesting so thanks for asking! Multi tasking is also my middle name! I can very seldom do one thing at a time. The mind is just always running through other things. Glad I'm not alone in that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecslady Posted October 19, 2006 #12 Share Posted October 19, 2006 So I am not alone in the multi tasking department. I also pop in every free minute I have at work, more often as a cruise gets closer and closer, like today. :):) And let's not forget, in the morning at home before getting to work and before going to bed. I've learned so much just by reading all these boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
