When (approx) did you last successfully update ?
It certainly looks like updates are due. To confirm, please open a terminal by pressing Ctrl, Alt and T together.
Then type or paste in this command to make the system check for potential updates.
Enter your password if asked.
After the update command has run look for a line near the end indicating how many updates are due. It may look like
To try to reproduce the problem, can you confirm if you are still on Linux Lite 7.4 and
thanks

i was away from pc for 3 weeks
when i run the command i get
153 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them.
operating system is saying 7.4
to get the system is up to date i simply click the popup to start the updates it runs normally and then say its up to date
doing manual update at the bottom right with Package Update Indicator has the same results

Ok, so the reported requirement to update is genuine. As you were upgrading ok earlier it sounds like a possible issue has developed on your system with the GUI process to action the upgrade.
You aren't doing anything unusual and further investigation would need someone with more experience on what the GUI process does.
My suggestion at this point would be to try an update/upgrade from the terminal. It might show an error which will give a bit more insight.
If you want to try this, I would first use the System Restore Utility (timeshift) to make a snapshot of your current set up.
Then open a terminal as before and run these commands. Enter your password if asked and respond to the prompts.
The first command checks for updates while the second implements the upgrade. Each command also copies the screen output to a couple of dated text files which will be saved in your home directory.
Once the commands have run, review the text files, post the results back please.
Note that the 'apt-get' command is limited to existing packages - it won't install new kernels or new packages so we will have to check those later.

so afte running the commands i got error that there is something wrong with dependencies but it gave me suggestion to run "apt --fix-broken-install"
i did that and re run the second command which seems to have worked and installed most of the updates now when i run "sudo apt update"
i get:

Ok, perhaps the original dependency issue which recommended the 'fix-broken' action was affecting the GUI.
Did you use 'apt' or 'apt-get' ? You've haven't shown the output so it is all a bit of a guess. It is possible the 9 packages still need upgrading if you used apt-get.
Try running the GUI version of the update/upgrade and report back.

checking the GUI it shows up to date now

I'm a bit confused - is it all working ok ?
Not sure what the 'http://prerelease.keybase.io/deb stable' line is.

Thank you. That output is showing the legitimate reasons for 6 packages not being upgraded at this time.
2 package upgrades are deferred due to phasing - they'll get upgraded at some point.
4 packages are being deliberately held back by the OS.
So the system is as up to date as expected at this time
