Hi fellow Hiveians,
Today I wanted to catch up on writing after a really long two week break while on vacation!
Two Week Break
It went by quick as hell, but I took two full weeks off of writing posts!
Granted I had a post scheduled every day that I was on vacation but it was a blessing and a curse at the same time. Writing this post now, it feels both good as well as bad. I selfishly enjoyed a little bit of a break from posting LOL but like anything with opportunity cost, you partake or get left behind. I choose to partake!
We recently went on a wonderful vacation, which I have loads of pictures from, and it was great! We explored all kinds of places as a family and it was a really positive thing - particularly because I made it a POINT to not be in a bad mood when I was on vacation. I have had some challenges recently where I am just simply an idiot and in a bad mood. It's difficult to definitively point to what causes it, but sadly it does occur. Thankfully though, with the vacation that we took, I had none of that bullshit and we had a great time.
We took hundreds of pictures that I'll be organizing over the next few days and getting posted to the chain but it was a nice break, and a nice break from writing. I was putting in overtime to write and get things appropriately scheduled so that everything when I was on vacation would continue. Some think this is a bit of a bullshit strategy focusing on rewards but I made sure to just get the posts out there and instead spend my time on chain commenting on people who stopped by my post, and visiting a few posts of others to make sure I didn't ignore the chain entirely, and kept up with the engagement!
I think this strategy of not formally writing a post was a good one because I had the chance to let my creative side take a rest and recuperate, which isn't always possible. I certainly feel refreshed but it's like anything you take a break from, it takes a little bit to get back into the swing of things and get into the rhythm again. I have a few posts already in draft from when I was there, though not formally written, and plenty of other post ideas written in my note app for when I can get to them but it was a great break overall.
The really cool part about it was that I worked from the hotel for a week and we took the second week off. This gave my wife and son an opportunity to have TWO weeks of pure vacation bliss, going around to visit parks and do fun things outside and get some sun and relaxation. It's definitely one of the best things about working remotely, and doing home-schooling where we can just up and go wherever we want for a few weeks and the only thing we have to worry about is bringing my work laptop and school work with us.
The only thing that I had an issue with on vacation is sleeping LOL we all shared a bed and that was a fun adventure. Now that we are back home, we are all catching up on much needed sleep in our own beds at home! It's certainly a good thing to complain about, because otherwise it would be kind of silly!
