Hail to the Hive!

As active and adventurous as some of you Hivers may seem to think my existence is I do find myself incredibly bored and in a bit of a rut, no more a kind of limbo really, at the moment. Maybe it is because I am used to being away or doing something interesting, traveling, diving, narrowboat living or whatever, that I am feeling acutely frustrated at the lack of progress in certain areas right now.

I thought the recent trip to Egypt was just a kinda booster, time filler, refresher for diving stop gap kind of thing and that as soon as I returned to the UK I'd be well on my way to the next planned project. Alas no. I've hit stagnation central and find myself looking back at last months trip and wishing we had extended it by a few more weeks as nothing seems to be happening as fast as I would like.

I know, moan moan moan, but geez I am finding this frustrating as there's no fixed starting point for this elusive new scuba work project and I am caught in a mire as my options for stop gapping here are limited and even they have been delayed.

So I will look back on these shots of our recent trip and try and gain some inspiration, some motivation, some positive energy to use this time more constructively. Now I don't completely waste it as I do spend a few hours a day on Japanese language study ( which is keeping me sane right now) but I need to feel some real progress soon with life in general, this project better get rolling soon. I'm sure it will and when it does and everything starts rolling I want you all to hold me accountable and if I complain about how I'm too busy this and that say " ahhhhhh wait a damned minute there @scubahead! THIS is what you wanted" 🤣. I'm sure I will see the funny side.

But man I wished we'd stayed in Egypt a while longer. It was the very opposite of life tight now. It WAS inspiring, it was motivational and my word you got some positive energy from it ( maybe they be right about dem pointy buildings).

I think looking at these and typing this has helped. Got it off my chest and feeling a bit better. I really should quit moaning and just get up and do something.

😄 And on that note, that's exactly what I'm gonna do
