RE: Life's Left Turns
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Yes Sir, we've had few unpleasant surprises these past few years with life events, investments, and people. I try really hard not to dwell on them and handle them with a measure of grace because it seems as if the more attention you give them, or the more disappointed you get, the more they snowball. In contrast I look back at the time period between 2016 and 2019 and it's weird how those years were almost the polar opposite—so many phenomenal experiences, friendships, and successes. Sometimes life events seem out of our control, disconnected from our decision-making, based on pure luck. Churchill said, "If you are going through hell, keep going." and that rings so true for me sometimes. As for the markets, you're smart to divorce yourself from alts. I believe if there's no real utility to them then they're going to flounder. Money has moved elsewhere—prediction markets, stock market, AI, etc. As for Hive, I just don't know. Sometimes I feel as though we need a real intervention to decide which direction we want things to go. Decentralization is wonderful in a lot of aspects but there needs to be cohesion when it comes to a roadmap of growth. I feel like this is what's missing.
Very great thoughts there. I'm actually worried I won't touch on them all. I agree that life is like seasons and while they might not follow the traditional seasons, they have their ups and downs. Also very true that there isn't much else we can do but move forward through it. I'm here till HIVE goes to zero, but where I used to think that wasn't likely, it's starting to feel more possible now.
In this post is some of the evidence to prove my case
If you didn't know I've been getting downvoted for a long time on Hive
They have been trying to bully me with downvotes and words but it doesn't affect me I've been online for over 25 years
So I've dealt with people like this before it's nothing new
But what they are doing is bad Very badi joined steemit like everyone else thinking it offers freedom but I must say steemit offered much more freedom than Hive does
Everyone already knows I only post my own original content I have no need to steal anything from anyone
I've been labelled a lot of things on Hive 😂 by the biggest farmers scammers and downvoters
Actions speak louder than any words do especially when them words are coming from a compolsive liars
I will keep updating this post when I get time

I had to follow my own advice about grace yesterday. Lol. We had some trees planted in the backyard and got a couple of Treegators to help keep them watered. I attached the hose to a spigot in the back (that we've never used before) and turned on the water supply to it. Suddenly I heard water rushing—the supply line to the spigot was gushing inside walls. Another thing the previous owners likely hid from us and our inspector didn't find. For now we have a dehumidifier running and when we get back from our trip to Ohio this week we'll have to open up the walls. Deep breaths. I don't think Hive is a lost cause quite yet but I do think there needs to be some kind of coordinated effort to decide on a cohesive path forward and that should probably happen pretty quickly.
Oh man, that sucks! I'm so sorry! I made an unexpected trip to Ohio myself today. It ended up being a grand disaster in a lot of ways, but also kind of good in some other ways.
Thanks my friend. It was horrendously stressful, especially after the chimney cap failed last summer and created a waterfall down our chimney. We've certainly been through it with this house. The home inspector we hired should have his license pulled. Also the previous owners should be ashamed of themselves for cosmetically covering up so many issues. The good news is after 48hrs the dehumidifier is pulling less water and the walls will probably be dried out before we hit the road for Ohio.
That is good news! We had a really good inspector do ours, but I think he is retired now. In the future we would probably have my buddy do it now that he is licensed for that. He'd probably be the one fixing any of the issues anyway, so hopefully he would pay really close attention to everything!
Yes, I don't think we'll have to worry about mold. I was also thankful the leak happened on a pipe we didn't have to shut the main water line down for so we can put the fix off until July when we're back. Both of those things are blessings. I won't be using this particular inspector ever again. I also want to be there when when/if we buy another house. I'll probably create a checklist myself of vital things to inspect and make sure the inspector checks them all off.
That is good and that sounds like a smart plan!
