No way I love steemit. I am still around and haven't given up...I basically have 3 jobs. Full time job with a concrete service (extremely tiring), part time job for a carpenter and I run my own business at night driving drunk patrons vehicles home for them. Can easily put 16 hours of work a day (9 am to 5pm and then 8pm to 4 am) with 80+ hours of work a week so I have been too tired to do anything. Along with these summer netflix releases I've just been binge watching instead of blogging. Lately I am either too tired or end up with a headache that prevents me from doing anything. Summers can keep me super busy, but I do want to get back to my regular posting. (Photography, #rockhound, dreams & streams). When I upgraded to windows 10, it also wiped my steemit drive with no warning. I should have known better then to leave it plugged in. (over 5,000 pictures lost) so I've been having a hard time getting out there and taking new pictures. The partition recovery process has proved to be tedious with most software "promising" to recover my files only to tell me I have to pay to get them all. That frustrates me but as long as I don't touch the drive, the files are still there hidden and waiting for me to recover. I just haven't had the time to do so.

I was hoping I'd catch a whales heart before I started this day job, so as to make blogging my primary income but things didn't pan out the way I wanted :P That and I seem to be addicted to powering up, so can't pay bills with steem if all I do is power up. The money I am making is too good to let go since I have money to invest now. The whole community seems to be split between steemit, palnet, weku, dlive and whaleshares...and probably smoke.io as well, which makes the whole blogging routine a little overwhelming when considering all these crypto platforms. Steemit is still my primary for sure and I try to motivate myself but seems every time I think I have free time, I don't. Between the day and night job all I do is sleep, eat, work, eat, sleep, eat, work, sleep. Very little sleep these days, and I could/should be writing up a post right now but I get lazy and tired and end up watching netflix all night. Ahh, that's life though. I appreciate you coming by...and hopefully I get back to it soon. Losing my files was very disheartening. All my templates, posting schedules, pre-written articles, ideas...all gone for the time being. I haven't given up though, I'm just lurking.

Jezzz. 3 jobs? Do you have wife, kids and dog on top of that @bitfiend? :)

Did you see new "stranger things"? I just started.

ps. I'm sorry to hear about your loss. 5000 pictures ... that's a lot :(

Cheers, Piotr

Haha..yeah, wife, kids & dog to top it all off! Some call me crazy for doing all that I do.
