Do I have a note pad feature on PC?

If not, this can be a suggestion for the future update.

Server space issues, privacy issues etc.. I don't know what this will involve, I'm just too lazy and too disorganized in general. (and my browser is so old, it doesn't do much. )

Looking at 'my daily mood', there are columns that I can maybe repurpose it for my needs but it's like stretching it.

Is there any place that I can take notes and keep it private? I don't want to mess with the settings for 'About Me' page, meaning I'd like to keep it open for anyone to see freely..

Use the private message feature to send yourself private messages? I use to do that in real time; bought a zillion postcards and wrote a note to myself and walked the half mile to/from the post office each day to mail them to myself. I received them a day or two later, LOL. Good exercise and nice quotes/self esteem notes

Yes, I like Perna's suggesting for sending yourself PMs.

The only other thing I can think of is the Mood tracker has a journal entry you can add to each entry you make there, and those are saved for as long as you have your account.

Thanks for your kind help both of you.

I'm back with the report. First, 'view Mood Tracker' took me to View Quizzes, so I don't know what's going on with that.

Then Perna's suggestion. I think I can use that. What I really wanted to do was to copy someone's beautiful signature quotes, I just wanted to keep things in one place.

Hmm,,this is really great, the preview of the msg is showing my one liner quote. Maybe I can reply to it and add more quotes or other personal notes to it. So it'll be tidier.

That's such an incredible things to do! Never heard of that till now. There's a slight problem though, that is, your postman might think you're odd.

I lived there 20 years and knew the post lady very well

I was in an old, historic, small town and it just had a post office, a cash-only restaurant, and a convenience store at its center. When I was working to lose some weight, I would walk to the convenience store each day and buy 1 canned or boxed item and I saved up a weeks' worth, copied the "weight" of each and added them up (almost 5 pounds) then mailed them off to a food bank and determined to lose that amount of my own weight by the end of the month.

I love thinking up odd little experiments and projects like that. On one of my walks with my postcards, I found a bunch of pennies scattered in the road! I collected all I could find and there were 9 of them. So, I made up a short story about "searching for the tenth penny" Every day as I was walking to the post office, I'd think up different endings (what if I were to be bold enough to ask the next person I saw if they had a penny I could have; what if I were to start collecting found pennies, walking/searching until I found 100? :-)

Thanks for the great story, and I like your signature quote, btw.

You're full of imagination, I'd say that's another vital ingredient in life.
Thanks for this!

I used to walk to work along a big main street and i kept finding car parts - a hubcap, a tail light, etc. I hoped to find enough to construct my own car!
Thanks for this!

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
