RE: 🏆 The Curation and Engagement Leagues 🏆

in #engagement5 years ago

haha! Howdy simplymike! good to hear from you. Well, it has to do with my addiction to Steemit. Mrs. J basically gave me the option of cutting back or cutting it out totally. lol. And we both know that I'm somewhat addicted to it and we both know that unless I break away from the League for at least awhile, I wouldn't be able to keep from jumping in, I had to make a clean break at least temporarily.

We have lots of work to do on our property and I didn't do much work on it last summer because of steemit so she wasn't going to let that happen again and I agree, that wasn't fair to her for me to be ditching my responsibilities and repair and maintenance work.
haha! that's funny that you just assumed I would be on top of the list. lol. I'm still doing tons of commenting, it''s just different times like the middle of the night! But I AM cutting back some.

Sort:  

Sounds pretty familiar, lol. Just recently, I got the remark

It's almost like I'm married to a laptop and a mobile phone

and I had nothing to say, I could only understand and see she was right. lol

Ever since, I'm trying to stay away from this place when she's home. She goes to work all day, and I can understand that if you have like 4 or 5 hours a day to spend at home before you need to go to bed, you want to spend some quality time.

it''s just different times like the middle of the night!

So once she has fallen asleep, I take out my phone and I'm back on...

Fortunately (???!) I'm still not okay after surgery, so I don't have any obligations or responsibilities during the day. I don't know if I would be able to combine both.

OMG, you just made me realize how much of an addict I am....

haha! howdy again simplymike! Well at least everyone here understands the addiction. I just hope it pays off in the long run and we'll look back and be thankful for it. But you certainly have the right plan to handle it and that is very wise.

Concerning your health though, I don't like hearing that you are still not okay, is there steady improvement but just slow?

Some days it seems like there's a lot of improvent, other days it seems like I'm thrown back in time and I'm back where I was a couple of months ago... I feally don't know what to think about it. Righr now, I'm.considering to have a third survery, but as long as they can't assure me it will at least be the same or better, I'm not willing to take the risk that it will be worse afterwards. Plus, I really don't want to start all over again.
After 13 months, I have had enough. I don't have the mental strength to start from zero again. I'm so tired of it... it's not just the physical part... the emotional and mental part is just as heavy, maybe even harder to deal with...

Howdy again simplymike..I'm so sorry to hear about the condition not improving consistently. If they can't assure you of improvement with surgery then you can't take that chance. And the mental and emotional strain I understand is exhausting.
The only option at the moment is to wait and see if improvements become more consistent right?

Jep. Patience is the key, I guess. Unfortunately, being patient is not one of my best qualities ;0)

Howdy today simplymike! oh I know. It's impossible to be patient in some situations, I don't care what anyone says. But in your situation I don't think you have a choice but to wait and see. I hate not having options though. I mean you have an option but not a good one at this point. I hate not having good options. But one may develop.
