Hello Steemit, I'm back, sort of

in #steemit5 years ago

It's been over four months since I posted here, not for any complaint with the platform, but because I was working two jobs and training for an ultra marathon while my wife was relaxing on the beach in Greece.

That left me little time to write or even think about blogging.

Then there was the Wellington Marathon, followed by the ultra marathon two weeks later. Two days after that, it was my turn to hop on a plane and head to Greece.

Six weeks, many thousands of kilometres, and a dose of pneumonia later and I’m back from my honeymoon – totally messed up. The pneumonia is still there, now I have a virus, probably picked up on the plane, which means I can’t work.

So while I heal a bit I’ll try to re-engage with Steemit and put some posts up and see who else is still around.

What’s been happening while I was away?

Sort:  

Welcome back, I've missed you. Sorry to hear you're not well, but it sounds like you've been really busy. Hope you recover soon.

Something fairly new to check out is @exhaust which has some nice features to log your runs. I expect you could easily top the mileage chart.

Hey Steve, thanks for that. I was hoping to blog while I was away and catch up with Steemit people, but it just didn't work out.

The pneumonia is proving a little tricky to get rid of, but that's normal from what I understand. It takes a bunch of time. But 'll get there.

I'll check out @exhaust as suggested :-)

I hope all is well with you and the family, and the chickens of course ;-)

We're all good. Lots of good stuff going on. The chickens are fine, but slacking a bit on egg production.

My mother-in-law has some chickens in the back yard. They produced excellent eggs and three or four chicks while I was there :-)

They didn't make it as the mother got a bit weird about it and stomped on them.

But home laid eggs were a big improvement over supermarket eggs.

We don't have a cockerel, so we don't get chicks. Generally we expect each chicken to lay an egg each day, but only 2 are laying recently. The others seem okay. It may be the recent hot weather. I think we are doing well in having all 4 survive for over 3 years. Our previous batch did not do as well.

Hope you feel better soon

Thanks, me too. I'm constantly coughing at the moment with is just horrible. I can't do anything.

But it will pass eventually and life will return to normal. :-)

Wow that is an impressive amount of running. Welcome back!

Thanks. It was a good day out.

Hopefully I can get back into Steemit a bit now and re-connect with everyone.

Oh man! Happy to see you are back in these moments! We missed you a lot!

Yeah I see that. I'll need to look into it and see if it made any improvements to anything. :-)

It was probably big news here. It's going to take a while to get my head back into the ecosystem again it seems.
