I miss so much on Gather.
I never have the time
I rush to my computer
and race to get online.
I'm pounding at the keyboard,
Every minute I can spare,
But theres tons of good things published,
And I'm not even aware!
I feel I let my friends down
by missing their displays
and fail to read their stories.
Won't you please all send emails??
Let me know when you've done something
to earn a kudo, back pat,or
'Feature' spot.
'Cause if you don't,
    I tell you
there's a bigger chance
 I'll miss it
    than not! 
(I don't want to do that!)
           Thanks!!

Lori, You are a gather addict! Welcome to the group of addicts!
Ladybounty ~. Nov 2, 2006, 8:21pm EST
hahahaha Yes I am Connie.....do they have meetings for that yet?
Michelle W. Nov 2, 2006, 8:28pm EST
Don't worry Lori, I think all the Gather friends here will forgive you if miss things! We all do!
Sonia M. Nov 2, 2006, 9:41pm EST
LOL............Lori that was brilliant! I think all of us miss things we wish we hadn't.

I was off since yesterday afternoon due to thunderstorms and today we were in town most of the day....so am trying to catch maddly as dinner is on the stove.......!

That was good. I enjoyed it!

Lori, I am sure nobody expect a comment on all the stuff they and I put up on Gather. Have fun, enjoy what you can and feel free (talking for myself now) to e-mail on anything your little heart wants to know---people are full of knowledge just waiting to be asked. I guess like myself I have a lot of knowledge on a lot of things but would never have the time to put them up or pursue. If your interested in Photography, digital photography, or Photoshop I have had a couple of college course and could help you a little from what I know and done---by no means am I all that good but it is fun.

Nice kind and warm words, Lori.
Ladybounty ~. Nov 3, 2006, 2:48am EST
Thanks everybody....it's good to know that I'm not the only one who feels like this! I guess I'm harder on myself, as usual, than anyone else is but I just can't stand missing all the good articles and pictures here. If there was only 48 hours in a day!
Carol Roach Nov 3, 2006, 2:56am EST

sheila ~the hapless housewife~ j. Nov 3, 2006, 8:01am EST
I feel for you, LOL! I haven't had a lot of time to be online this week, and there are so many articles I haven't looked at that I feel overwhelmed!
Anne B. Grote Nov 3, 2006, 10:07am EST

Ladybounty ~. Nov 3, 2006, 12:17pm EST
Ron.....thanks if I could ONLY find more time I would LOVE to learn more about photography.

Carol.....thanks for the diagnosis.....although it IS frightening! lol

Sheila....been there and done that......every day this week! That's why I'm up sitting at my computer at 3 a.m. reading and commenting!

And Annie....you guys make it really hard not to care so much...I'd have to be a stone lady NOT too.....

Thanks everyone!

Ladybounty ~. Nov 5, 2006, 11:04am EST
Thanks Jewel....I'd rather have tons of emails to go through then miss something, too!

You got mail.
Edward Nudelman Nov 15, 2006, 10:52am EST
I feel your pain. Seriously. Great verse.
Aileen F. Nov 15, 2006, 11:51am EST
Click on My Gather and then Articles for Me and you can see what your peeps have been up to. Or, adjust your setting to let you know when they publish.
Ladybounty ~. Nov 15, 2006, 12:36pm EST
Thanks everyone.....for all the nice comments!
No matter what I do.....I seem to always be behind with 'tons' of articles, emails and comments to go through. Oh, I manage to get to them all eventually....but I apologize if it takes me longer than I wish it would, or if I miss something that I wish I didn't, and thank you all for your patience, friendship and the great poems, articles and images! You have added soooo much to my life in such a short time!!
Kathryn E. Jan 22, 2007, 4:27am EST

I don't think anyone can keep up with everything. I'm here a lot, and I can't, so don't feel bad. Clever way to express it by the way, too cool.
Take care.
Bonnie C. Jan 24, 2007, 12:45pm EST
wow....well written and so very needed
Too cute, I ove it. Pop on by over at my stuff and have a peek. i try to post about once a day or so (at least three times a week), and there's something for nearly everyone. *grin* Keep in touch! +10!
even when you have time to be on 8 hours a day you still miss a lot believe me !!
Ladybounty ~. Jul 20, 2008, 8:08am EDT
thanks for all the comments!
I recently got back online after about a year and a half and just cant keep up again!
I really, really want to but truly agonize over all the great stuff that I'm missing!
