Second HIVE Anniversary

(edited)

Two years, and this year has been a little slower than I expected.

Health, mental and physical, has been the main thing limiting my output and in reality that will likely continue.

However, over the past few weeks I have found a hack to get me back into the rhythm of daily posting. The cricket T20 world cup, European Football Championships , and Copa America are all happening and, as each started, I began doing daily updates.

I may not have found the people who want to read daily sport updates, but the act of writing them has been helpful. Though I'll be honest, I'll be relieved when they start to end as keeping up with a couple of games of cricket and three or four games of football every day is sucking up pretty much all the writing time and energy available and I'm eager to get on writing other things.

There are a couple of posts from the year I'm really proud of and, in no particular order, here they are:

  1. Where's My Wallet
  2. Lunch Date Tapas
  3. Here's The Thing... About Nice

I've also experimented with both video and audio this year. Video will remain an occasional thing, but audio is due to become a key part of my offerings. I'm still trying to get things set up so I can do things in a manner I find uncomplicated. Of course, I said audio was due last year as well uggh.

And, just this week, I got to onboard my very own @lizzaturnbull, who is going to be using HIVE to tell folks about sewing as an ill person. Please, go follow her and say hello.

I'm not making any firm plans for this next year, other than to try and remain a regular poster. Previous plans have fallen foul of health, work, and various circumstances. That and my own best efforts of self-sabotage.

Let's see how we get on from here.

A thing I wish I'd done last year was note my HIVE standings and holdings to see the change. Oh well, I'll do this years:

Congrats on two years on Hive, time really does fly by when you're having fun! I'm coming up on 7 years in July, and I find that the more regularly I write, the "easier" it gets. I see you've realized the benefits inherent inn both saving HBD, as well as delegating as a way to grow your stake. I think you're doing great, and encourage you to Keep Going! :)

I am not really one to keep track of my growth process especially here on hive.... But whenever I come across post like this, I get really motivated and hope one day I could do mine 🙂.

Sorry about your ill health and hope you get better soon. And oh I have welcomed and followed your better half, hope she gets as much fun as we are having 😌

Nice! Happy 2nd Hive birthday to you, Stuart! I recently celebrated my Hive birthday too... although they go by with little fanfare! !LOLZ

I hope this next year is a healthier and happier one for both you and Mrs T and that she has a good first year on the Blockchain. Keep doing what you do best. Write. whether it's short story fiction or sports reporting or a summation of the weather... just write. It will all flow again. :-)

It's lovely that the ongoing sports competitions get you back to regular updates and, by implication, posting on hive. When one's health needs attention, we can't shy away from it. Health first. I wish you better days ahead as you navigate your third year on this platform.
