RE: Steem: More than a Blog

in #blockchain7 years ago

There is definitely a lot going on beyond Steemit on the STEEM blockchain. And much more that could happen. When I think about what could be happening here, it makes me want the future faster. It also makes me want more from the present.

I think, however, I'm settling in here, getting used to things, overlooking the faults a little more and trying to post, comment and curate and see what happens. At some point, I might want to do something else, but I like doing those three things more than some of the other options available at the moment, so we'll see.

It's good to see you around. It's been a few days. I know you've got a lot going on but thought I just say, "Hey. Good to see you." :)

Thanks! I really enjoy writing and am happy when I can make the time to do it. I love having four kids, but gosh if that doesn't make my time extremely limited. o_O

It doesn't seem like that long ago I had two young boys running around, but both of them are in their mid-to-late 20s, married, one with a child and the other expecting. The one with the granddaughter lives with us so we've been watching her grow up and do things. Been working on scooting around furniture and taking a few unaided steps.

As much as I can say, in spite of it all, that I enjoyed fatherhood, being a Grandpa so far has most of the benefits without most of the downside. :)

Sad thing is, it all happens before you know it. Not sure if a stay-at-home parent experiences their children growing up in the same way as work-away parents, but it sure seemed to fly by for me. And it's not gotten any slower since.

I was fortunate, though, when they were in middle school on up to work for myself and be able to arrange my schedule around practices and games, so I can't say I missed out a whole lot. But I worked for someone else for the 10 or so years prior to that time, so missed a lot of the day-to-day things I would have witnessed more of if I had been at home.

Congratulations on grandfatherhood. It's a blessing and I'm eager for it when that time comes.
