The count down has started!

in esteem •  5 years ago  (edited)

The kids have their grades from school and those were super and good enough! So the counting down to the holiday can really start!
Here is the list of things I am counting down at the moment!

Work

2 more days of work to go before the holiday starts. Too bad it will be a rather short holiday. Only 2 weeks and a day! But that gives me some spare days for in August or so.
Normally companies do give you a certain number of holidays at the beginning of the year, but the company I am working for has a different schedule. They did align the holidays with the fiscal year, which starts in October. So that means that my holiday calendar goes from October until September. Really had to get used to that. For sure when planning the holidays at the end of the year! Normally people do take all what remains but in most cases I am planning my first holidays of the holiday calendar!
Really need to dig up some motivation to drag myself through these 2 days!

Holiday

Okay 2 more days to work and 3 more days until we drive off to the airport! Really looking forward to it. This year the destination will be Turkey! It has been 11 years ago that we have been there!
The hotel has a own golf court, so I do hope to play some golf.
The first day will be a really tough one, with lifting off around 00.40 a.m.. The good thing about this is that we will not be losing a holiday day :) The bad thing is that the kids will be tired and it will ask a lot of our nerves!
The hotel also has 9 water slides, so I do hope that also the youngest is allowed to use them. Maybe it will be a year too soon! We will see!

Dolphinhood

But there is also a steem related count down. We do have the overall countdown towards HF21 but I also have my personal count down towards dolphinhood. At the moment of writing this post, I do have 4487 SP. So 513 SP to go. I do think that when June is over I will start with the last 5% of my journey!
I did quite playing on most gambling dapps on the Steem Blockchain, so my progress will be a little slower. Still I do have the hope to have reached it before September is started. That will be quite challenge but I do think that it is possible!

So as you can see there is at the moment a lot of counting down for me?

Are you also counting down towards something?

Cheers,
Peter

Awesome Goals!!
My brother and I drove up the coast of Turkey a couple of years ago.
That resort looks fantastic!
I hope you and your family have a great summer holiday. :)

Thanks!
The same to you!

I have a few countdowns myself going on too.
This weekend we have a party because our football club is turning 25 and I helped organizing the whole thing.
Afterward I have a short holiday. It's only one week and wee don't go anywhere, but I really look forward to spend the whole week with my family.
Afterwards I start a new part-time internship as an online-editor and I am really excited to start and hopefully soon work as something I really love.

Wish you a good time in Turkey, hang in there for these days left.

Have fun at the party!
Thanks!

Good luck on the road to dolphin hood. Is it based on post earnings or just your steem power? Is it the magical 5,000SP?

Posted using Partiko Android

Yep it is the magical 5K! So just Steem Power!

I thought it was only official when steemitboards says so 😛

Posted using Partiko Android

You do have a point there!
Guess I will have to take steemitboard from now on as point of reference!

Posted using Partiko iOS

Great. Will look forward to see some great photos as well.

I will post enough of those!

Winter holidays in perfect weather down in the southern hemisphere, enjoy your time in Turkey a destination that is interesting.

To bad for me the northern hemisphere is what I have to call home! 😔

Keep going for dolphin hood, you almost there!

Thx! Getting closer and closer! Still a long way to go!

Posted using Partiko iOS

I think you have me along the dolphin....I am at same position as you.....let's see who get first ....👍

Posted using Partiko Android

Always in for a challenge! Let’s race!
But in this case it doesn’t matter who wins as long as we both reach the finish line!

Posted using Partiko iOS

Hey..it's not a challenge....but let see who reach first.....

You have a lot of fun things to countdown, don't you? I'll be thinking about you as you enjoy your time in Turkey! Have fun there and don't even think of us once!!! It's time to have fun! :)

I'm counting down for vacation, but, not seriously yet. I have 64 days to go! Perhaps I will stick a small one in between then and now. Dolphinhood, although at 4425, I have a ways to go. I'm a slow mover, but, only because I put $$ into tipu and it slows the progress. But, I get great pleasure out of doing that and if I can't have fun here, what am I doing here at all?

That is probably it for now!

I hope you have a wonderful time and your wait to get there speeds by!

!tip

Thanks for the kinds words and the tip of course!
We will all get there eventually!
Cheers,
Peter

Ha ... I'm going on holiday tomorrow in Greece :)
Have a nice time .... try to stay of Steem.

We did Greece last year. We went to Kos!
Same to you! Enjoy it.
Mhh doubt it that I can stay away from steem!

Holiday is a great moment to get re-energized as I just finished mine and am slowly coming back to also get acquainted with the upcoming changes and grinding towards my goals here. However, the time off made me realize why I work so hard in the first place which is to provide for the family and enjoy those moments and experiences beside them! Enjoy!

I always find it hard to get back to normal life after a holiday! So much of strenght with that :)
Indeed that why we do it for!
Cheers,
Peter

So many awesome things upcoming for you, @fullcoverbetting! At the moment, I'm only counting down the moments until hubby's work day ends today, as tomorrow is the start of his weekend (he works the Sun-Thu shift). Hope you have a great holiday, and that last little bit of SP needed for dolphinhood accumulates quickly! Also...

Thanks Traci!
Enjoy the weekend!

You're very welcome Peter, and you as well! 😊

Have a great holiday and much success in reaching Dolphinhood! 🐬

Thanks for both!

I didnt know that we didnt gave a holiday at the same time i always thought Holland and België were together but we still have three weeks to go. And turkey with a golf course rounds the same as we have in italy and we cant Wait to go.

Have fun!

No holiday here my friend, but the great news for me is that my grandchildren are doing so well. Little Eli scored above 95% in all of his subjects, Taytum was selected as a national champion in acrobatic dancing, Reece has mastered his Saxophone and the smaller ones are still in the grades.
What more can I ask for?
Blessings!

What a beautiful place to vacation. 👍 I'm counting down to reaching 1000sp. 😁

@fullcoverbetting - how exciting! A holiday to Turkey. I'm sure you and your family will have a great time. And congratulations to being so close to Dolphin-hood! A fantastic achievement.

Awesome! I have spent too many years building my own business and haven't gone too far except for a cruise a couple years ago. Next year for sure ;)

My buddy the dolphin! You can do it and I will drink a beer when we get you there.

Make the most of it, life is a holiday when you're in a holiday frame of mind.

Very nice, sounds like a it will be a nice holiday trip. I hope you guys have a great time.

I think you'll have Dolphin locked in by Sept.

@fullcoverbetting I love Turkey!! Enjoy <3
