Too much! Well, lets see. On and off for a good part of the day is the best answer I can come up with!

I love you guys!

*blushes* I'm in front of my laptop most of the day here at work, and I've been on here a lot the past month or so as a result....I'll be on less once I get back into classes full time at the end of March once co-op ends...but yeah, too much is probably about right, but I love you guys and keeping up with everything going on, so it probably won't change much!

I agree with that one
Soon might give myself actual times that I am "allowed" to check in. Want to keep up with everybody, but it is hard when I get so busy! If I didn't hate my job so much I wouldn't be on at all. And if I get accepted to do the volunteer work I want to with developmentally disbled people then I won't be on much, either! Especially when it gets closer to deadlines for stuff for school...
Eeek! I shouldn't be on right now!
It is so hard because I do have 'friends' (using the term loosely) that I go out with and have fun with, but no one to talk to about 'stuff'.
Ok, ok ... I am being barely coherent right now!

It depends. On days that I'm feeling good, I'm here more than days I'm not. And on days that I'm doing a lot of ebay work, I tend to just check in in the morning and while I eat my dinner, and not any other time.

Mostly I'm just on and off all day, and I definitely read more than I post.

on days I'm at work if its slow I'm here all day long, but only a few times after work most days...

days off like today- again depends- I'm stopping in between doing hosuework today... but if I'm out doing stuff like last Fri I may not get here at all... so it depends on whats going on and how I feel.. I have a feeling once the weather changes and I can ride a bike outside instead of inside I'll be on the bike on my days off for some of my long rides, so on less then, and I'll have a day off with DH by then, so that will be a day I'm on the boards less too.. we'll see what happens..

I saw your post about biking the other day but I never got to read it and then it disappeared! What's this about riding 150 miles in 2 days? Sounds like something my hubby would do!

Way too much! An hour? Two hours a day divided in small sections of 15 minutes, 30, 45, etc.

raising money for MS- a cause near and dear to me.. should still be on the boards... In July I will be biking 150 miles in 2 days... so I need to work my way up- way out of shape.. I was a marathon runner up until about 10 years ago or so... when I screwed up my ankle one too many times, and my knee slightly in a car accident, but I can bike and the knee seems to be holding out.. up to 6 miles per training ride just spinning on low resistance on a stationary bike... but I need to go way higher and get off the stationary bike and onto something else.. but can't till it thaws outside...

I'll be after people to sponsor me when it gets closer.. but meanwhile I'm just asking for lots of encourangement so I don't slack off and have to drop out before the race starts...

My job doesn't allow me to! I can access it but I'm so darn busy these days at work I don't even have time to pee I can really only get on after dinner, homework and showers are done so that leaves me with not much time. The weekends ar the best for me!

I think if I stayed home, I'd be on much, much more

Since starting the new job 2 months ago, I can't log in as much during the day when boss is there. That's why I love when she goes to meetings, but I'm sure she wonders what I've been doing all during that time as my I have no work to show for my time.

So I sneak a peak during lunch break but mostly limited to after dinner and weekends.

I'd much rather be on with you guys! All the action seems to happen during the day! And I'm starting to feel left out of the loop By the time I see posts, the topic is pretty much over and no one cares anymore by the next day unless they go back and check yesterdays posts.

Hi,

I used to check the boards several times a day but now that I am working part time I only get to check once in the morning and once in the evening. Lots of times I just scan and read how everybody is doing but don't have time to post.

I have to tell you that these boards have been a real help to me and I feel like I have made a lot of friends. I also love to hear what everybody is doing.

LOVE THE MESSAGE BOARD!!!!!!

I'd like to be able to get on earlier than after lunch cause most of you guys are off to bed when I get on and I miss all the good conversations!
