It is indeed, @manorvillemike! And I think those of us who live with cats perhaps get a leg up in understanding the value of doing nothing!

Hi there @cuddlekitten! Cute as always!

The "game of monotomy!" That's funny.... but true.

Thank you @traciyork, happy to put in a plug! So far, I have sent one article through to the greater world and it appears to have been viewed about 5x more than my typical Hive post... and that was with

I think I am probably just hiding behind the excuse of having to learn a new interface and how to work with a different web editor. Since Google hosts many of my top level domains, the integration to a

It'll be very interesting to see how much "traction" Blurt will get... with more and more of these "variations" around, I worry that "dilution" will start to become a problem...

Thanks @porters! I haven't yet felt called to the teaching part, very much... I worry that it would end up feeling too much like an obligation, and some of the joy I felt while learning would be replaced

Thank you for the kind words! I like to keep learning, too... but I tend to move onto new things, more often than staying with the same thing and trying to become "world class" at something.

Not so stupid, really. You succeeded, but you didn't agree to a life of drudgery. I've always wondered what athletes do, once they've won the Olympics gold medal, or whatever their aspiration was. You

Happy Birthday, even if a little after the fact! SIXTY. That's how far I'll be counting for the next one, next month. As we age, I think we cycle more and more through "the ones that were," no

It's all just a munted shitshow, and I suppose all we can do is just watch it unfold. We've just been sticking to our own preventive measures of zinc, vitamin C and D and generally trying to stay as far

Seems to me the "weekend of moldy bread." I had to cut some up today and feed it to the birds because it was developing green spots... maybe it's because it has been raining so damn much (at

Ack! Nothing more frustrating than "technology issues," particularly when a favorite piece of gear is declared "too old a model to warrant repair, but we can offer you a newer replacement."

That's a very sweet image, Silvia!

I think building is really important now... we can't rest on the laurels of "Look, we created Hive, and look how well it went!" That was just the start. I'm about to embark on a a bit of a 90-day

Well, Merry Unofficial Christmas to you @dswigle! Reading your post reminds me of my childhood and the glee my dad would feel as he stood in the middle of our vegetable garden, weeding in the summer heat

Congratulations @paulag! That's awesome, and well deserved — in the time I have known you through Steem and Hive, you have always seemed very dedicated to honing your expertise, so it's great to see you

Super happy for you that you get to go somewhere! That area is pretty nice; much of my misspent youth happened down near Algeciras and beyond, about 100km away... I'd say it's a bit touristy in the summer,

I used to call that "Too Many Interests Syndrome," and I tend to be a bit like that, myself... even as I write these words, I am working on many different projects and microbusinesses, side by

You are welcome! I have followed your blog since the early days on Steem, and based on some of the things you have said across the years, this does not surprise me!
