One more week of sunshine ☀️

Here goes, a blog on the iPhone that is acting up and registering one in 3 keypresses, from the departure lounge...

I have a spare hour before.... I get on a plane for a week in Mallorca!

😎

What? You've only just arrived back in the UK!?

Yeah I know, but it's a week and a half until I start work and my mum needs some painting doing. So why not hire the worst painter, not in town, for the job, so he can spend the rest of the time lounging by the pool?

I got lucky I know, I am not a good painter and the only reason I got the job was... it's not what you know it's who you know. Cheers Mum!

The apartment in Spain needs a coat of paint to protect it from the 'harsh' winters. Does anyone actually believe me when I say it is cold and damp in the winter? The mould attacks the inside of the walls facing Europe and the hope is that a clean, a bleach, another clean, and a special paint will help.

It'll probably also help that I won't be there this winter, breathing out CO2 and generally bringing dampness (?) to the room. And honestly, I won't miss the place come November - much better to be aware that it's going to be shit weather in the UK and dress up for the worst.

So yeah, a little painting, and hopefully a fair amount of sun before work begins next month. I have the laptop and so the scheduled posts for the EL, Actifit contest, and Acidyo's #sfpl will still happen.

Disappointingly, I couldn't find my Fit-bit before I left today and so you won't get any Actifit posts this week. I'll have to replace those with an Appics 'beer by the pool' post instead.


Or, I could get paid to Resteem - see my latest Resteem for details. It's an interesting one, follower count / follower SP total / follower relevant tribe stake total / Steem UA ranking - just some of the many options.


I changed my vote timings the other day and have since learned that this was not the time to do so - do not copy me and wait until fork day.


In advance of this trip, I wrote down some instructions regarding my Steem accounts for my brother in case something happens to me at any point. The person I gave the USB stick to said 'why now, you'll jinx your flight'. I say BS, prepare for the worst and hope for the best.


Alright, time to finish my drink and get on the plane (that will land safely later today).

Cheers

Asher

    There is something really satisfying about painting. At the end of the day the arms and legs are all stretched to exhaustion, the lungs full of that paint scent, the skin has taken on the ethnicity of whatever color was inside of the paint can. But then when it is all done, food and drink never tasted so good, and a shower is a bit like a luxury spa. Enjoy. I need to get down to it around here as well.

    I trust you made it safe. Best wishes for a little vacation mixed in with the paint.

  • @bashadow(70)· 2559d

    Nice one last vacation before work, enjoy the hopefully sunny days. Have a !BEER for the flight, it will smooth out the turbulent bumps, if there are any.

  • @hitmeasap(75)· 2559d

    "I changed my vote timings the other day and have since learned that this was not the time to do so - do not copy me and wait until fork day."

    Too late for that. Doesn't take me that long to change it back again, but I don't really care much about it.

    I guess I wouldn't have said the same if I had hundreds of thousands of Steem though... Good luck with the painting! :D

  • @teutonium(65)· 2559d

    How much are plane tickets from Mallorca to UK? Prob not that much, the most expensive part of traveling is the hotel and you got that covered...

  • @fullcoverbetting(74)· 2559d

    Don’t tell me that you will work harder in the upcoming week than the last time you stayed in Mallorca!

    When you touchdown the resteem reformation will be in full swing and you're earning for your adventurous spirit. I'm a man of my word. I'll consider the upvote as the virtual handshake 😀

    Have fun winterizing the Spain spot and in all seriousness some interesting ideas are popping up in regards to our experimenting with curation...

    Cheers!

    Yeah. I noticed a few people have changed their vote to come in a split second after I post.

    I thought I'd wait and see. A week or 2 is not going to make a massive difference in my curation earnings that for sure.

    interestingly my mum was saying that she's finding the winters harder in Gozo these days than the summers so she's planning on coming back for a 3 week stint in February! 😱

    she covets the central heating and John's cooking and generally being spoilt which is fine by me. 😁

    Have a fab time in Menorca. I hope you get plenty of it beside the pool.

    Mallorca is a great place for your holidays! Fun, Sea and Drinks all night long 🌅

    Wish I could paint badly too...

    Have fun in the sun and enjoy the time with your mum.

    Same.. but I cant be arsed to change them back, it's not like its a lot anyway.

  • @meesterboom(81)· 2559d

    Haha!! I changed mine too. I got confused though, will the reverse auction window be getting changed to a minute or five minutes? On gitlab it says 5 but I was sure I saw a post saying 1.

    Anyway, enjoy the painting and the warmth you lucky batata!!!

    How wrong is it to shout, your mother has the painters in!!

    Ahem.

    !beer

  • @cicisaja(65)· 2559d

  • @abh12345(80)· 2559d

    It seems that others have also been a bit premature 💥
