Back to work - hello Steemit!!

in photography β€’Β  7 years agoΒ 
It has been a LOOOOONG time since I’ve been on Steemit πŸ˜• Life (and especially work) had gotten so hectic that I had to drop off social media for a bit…

Nonetheless, it is now 2018 and thus a new start to a year πŸ˜† Let’s see if I can manage my work load a little better this year and thus hopefully have a little more time to spend on Steemit again πŸ‘πŸ»

As you can see, it is still school holidays here in South Africa. The kids still get to sleep in whilst us adults have to get back into the swing of things at work 😐 All I can do is reminisce over those care-free days as a kid... If they only knew now how much responsibility they will be taking on as adults, I'm sure they'd appreciate their childhood even more. But, as we know, they definitely don't see or understand that perspective yet - and that, well, is life πŸ˜‰

I did! It was a lot of fun. Now full steam ahead and get ready for my world trip!

Awesome!! Looking forward to posts on that!!! Where you headed?? So far I only have a trip to Germany planned...

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I am posting those for sure! Can't wait to make a living off of Steemit and me a full time traveller and Steemian!

I will be heading to Asia first, then Australia and New Zealand. First stop is Thailand, followed by Malaysia and Indonesia :D

When are you coming to Germany!?

Wow!! That sounds awesome!! You better make a trip to Africa at some point 😁
Heading over the second half of June 😁

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Maybe one day. Going on a Safari (how clichΓ©) is definitely on my bucket list!

Oh sweet! Where exactly are you going?

Might be a little clichΓ© but you better make a plan πŸ˜‰
Spending a few days in Berlin and then about 10 days in Southern Germany (mainly in the Black Forest area). Can't wait!!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ

Whahaha!! I must've been typing too fast πŸ˜³πŸ˜†

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I haven't seen you for a while @cheeto.blue and it is great to have you back! :)
I guess all of us go through the cycle of wanting to grow up but as that gradually happens we long to return to our childhood.
Well.... WELCOME BACK! :)

Thanks so much for the kind word mate!! Yip, it has been a long time - good to be back though 😁
Hope you had a good holiday?

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

It definitely was great to have a stress free week but we all have to return to work sooner or later haha

Yip!! That's a fact!! And that was today for me 😐 You back yet?

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ (edited)

Remarkable , I am retirement material , and still waiting to grow up to see what I want to be! Was at the shops today , saw some parents at the supermarket with young kids, I said " You do know they are no longer taking children as trade-ins for Goods?" Some people have no sense of humour!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Awesome thanks for sharing!

Whaha!! I really can take a life time to try and figure out what we really want to do with our time...
Whahaha - now how can they not find that funny 😜
Good to hear from you though Alan πŸ‘πŸ»

Keep up the good work. The best time to enjoy life is during the formative years.

So true!!

Welcome back mate. How good is it that you happened to return as price rips higher! ;)

Glad to see you're back @cheeto-blue :)

Thanks so much @lizelle - it is really good to be back 😁
I hope you had a great time over the Christmas period?

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

We did @cheeto-blue, despite falling victim to housebreaking for the 1st time in 10 years! Thought we were immune to it, but only lost a laptop & TV as the alarms were ringing - not the Christmas bells :) Armed response were speedy!

Ouch!! Burglaries are the worst over the festive season 😣 Sorry to hear...

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

It was extremely bad timing, the Grinch of Christmas paid us a visit, but typically South African, we did not let that spoil our fun :):)

Glad you didn't let it spoil your fun - hehe 😁

Welcome back and Happy New Year @cheeto.blue

Don't sons looks like angels when they sleeping? Nice capture!

Thanks so much @joanstewart!! And a happy new year to you too 🍾
