Planet Earth Date - Tuesday, July 3, 2018
After Steemit's down time yesterday, I still intended to spend much of my work time away from my favorite addiction.
But you know... the plans of mice and men. ;)
Hi Steem Fam,
One more day of intentions to work on my website thwarted.
I PROMISED myself yesterday, after it also got away from me, that I would NOT even CHECK Steemit first thing this morning.
I would not give Steemit a chance to tempt me, all over again, today.
I reasoned yesterday that there was NO reason to check Steemit first thing each morning as I've been doing since my birth here on February 10th.
Check for what, I asked myself?
Replies to yesterday's comments?
Rewards to claim?
Great posts that had not received even $0.00 in upvotes?
Posts that had no comment, especially those with a title that either intrigued or described a problem being experienced?
Post drafts I could polish and publish?
What about my too-often broken intention to work on my site?
Was Steemit my baby or something?
NOPE!
There was absolutely NO need to check anything on Steemit until I finished enough of my work.
So I'd be strong. I'd resist the temptation.
And I would NOT click in to Steemit UNTIL I got at the VERY least TWO hours of real work DONE.
Then Steemit went down.
Eventually I visited several Discord channels. I found out about @Ned's explanation of why Steemit was offline via a message @zipporah had shared that was then passed on to many discord channels.
Turns out that the automatic system freeze on Steemit had been triggered and it would take consensus between all top 20 Wistnesses to take corrective action. Some were offline because of the time zone difference.
Someone came in to the #SteemGigs channel to ask what was wrong and @PurpleDaisy57 pasted the above message from @zipporah.
Thanks for getting the information to so many people, @zipporah!!!
Thanks for reposting in @SurpassingGoogle's #SteemGigs discord channel, @PurpleDaisy57!!!
After clicking around a bit more in discord, I thankfully settled down to sleep deeply and well.
In the morning, of course I HAD to check that it was back up.
And THAT was what started today's fast roll down the 'not dealing with main priority' hill ... make that mountain.
I basically spent the rest of the day meeting and greeting.
Upvoting and commenting.
Constantly saying 'after this last one'.
So I thought I'd at least get a post out of all my enjoyable activity today.
Here are just three of the posts I not only upvoted but much more importantly to me, commented on.
Earlier today in the late morning, I read our own #Ulogger #SteemGig's community member, ***@uche-nna's #Ulog about his father...
I felt the spirit of @uche-nna's father watching the very short video introduced by his son with...
It's the 55th day of the gratitude challenge organized by a great soul @tojukaka.
And today am more thsn greatful because am happy.
Am greatful for my dad's health.
Been diagnosed with partial stroke, it has been easy, from talking, to walking and the rest.
He was able to do them. But today,
Here's the rest of the story about @uche-nna's Dad, Gratitude Challenge Day55: Dad's Health.
Next up, we have @bethwheatcraft who has been super busy over the past few days working on a special project that is the subject of her video.
Well, part of the subject.. the project gives the context for the very important life tip she shares...
So why did I do this?
Well, I have been moping around thinking about all the things I won't be able to do in 10 years.
I likely won't be renovating bathrooms at 40 years old in my condition.
But, I feel good right now. I am strong right now. I have come off of a year's worth of training for the police and even though I can't pursue that, I am still in good shape.
Why waste the here and now by....

The last post I commented on was Ulog:02 Feeling Down by @rosebell. She shared in her ulog how she's been feeling down for a few days.
Lots of people have been feeling down, off, over the past couple of weeks. Have you?
Here's how she starts off her ulog:
I haven't check my steemit for almost 3 days, my facebook and other things I usually do. I don't know, its like I feel sad for no reason. Last weekend I was able to sleep almost 16 hours a day. I feel lazy, I feel like I don't want to eat and I don't have any idea what's...

So.... did you see any of these posts on your Steemit travels today?
If you didn't, give them a visit and share some of your love with them.
Each of the authors are different.
Both in content, layout and the experiences they chose to share.
But they are all great Steemians, sharing their days, their lives, with us.
Enjoy and talk soon,
Angela
PS JUST as I hit post and clicked around for a bit, I found our community #Ulogger and one of three #SteemGigs members who regularly record Sir Terry aka @SurpassingGoogle's Saturday Talk and After Party every week.
If you have not yet had a chance to listen to the recording, here's @IshanVirtue's video recording, THE 10TH STEEMGIGS TALKSHOW with SURPASSINGGOOGLE - Even Geckos Love Steemgigs!!!.
