Good morning Zac,
I didn't have any time in the past days, or better said when I've had time I wasn't in the mood to turn the computer on ... it's a somehow weird time at the moment.
The AC is very loud, so you can only use it during daytime to cool the room down and hope that it stays reasonable cool during the night. You may believe me that everyone here knows about the paid sleep, and everyone who does night shifts takes advantage of it 😂 !LOLZ
It's not the quality of the photos that counts, it's what's to see in the photo 😀
Yep, our shift is 24 hours, but I usually work "normal" after a shift, so I'm at least 32 hours at work before I go home. Until a couple of years ago I also couldn't sleep during daylight, but that has changed. Now I can sleep almost anywhere at any time 😴
Last weekend I drove to the Dolomites after work, slept a few hours and then I hiked around the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. I haven't been lucky because again there haven't been any dramatic clouds, so the photos are more post card images for tourists, but rather boring for me. In the afternoon, when I was back at the van, dark storm clouds arrived and I was happy because I thought there will finally be photos possible which I like, but it started to rain heavily and a thunderstorm in the mountains is too dangerous, so I went home with only images like these...
I'm not sure when I'll be on the Hive next - the week is busy and I'll be working half the weekend. Next week we want to visit our daughter and our niece in Lower Austria, and I'll take my camera with me, of course 😉
So I hope you two guys are fine and have a good time 🌞😊
Sending !PIZZA and !LUV as always 😉
Good evening Hannes,
it is weird times lately all over, and by now I think that you know that the Hive price fell down yesterday. The USA is entering a recession, the Japanese Yen has tanked, and the worry of a Middle East war has made that everyone is cancelling their investments. So, you have not missed anything, as times are bad currently on Hive.
Ah, that loud noise of the AC will be a real pest for the paid sleepers, and it's wise to only use it in the day. So, I understand why you guys don't use it at night. Besides, it is summer there and the nights would be nice and warm. We are ever so slowly breaking out of the low temperatures, and today was 18C, which is much better than 10C. 😊 At night it drops to 5C, and it feels like one is sleeping in a fringe 🥴 !LOLZ
I also used to work double shifts in the 70s as a construction manager, but that was years ago, and I don't know how you can still handle it at your age now. You are obviously a strong and healthy guy that can still endure it, but thankfully for you at will soon be all over. Kaput, and never having to work a shift again 😉
The Dolomites make for some magical photos, and we are both agreed that that we like the first photo, as it has a tinge of mystery about it. Beautiful photos as usual my friend 😲
We hope that you will enjoy your visit to Lower Austria, and may it be that you will get lovely photos my friend. I will see you when I see you and hope that all will be well with you 🙏
Cheers and thanks.
Hi Zac,
weird times, you're so right, my friend. I want to wait till after the US elections and if the crypto market gets better I will stay, and otherwise I think I will have to make a decision ... we'll see.
Paid sleep is best when it's a good and undisturbed sleep 😴 !LOLZ
Our temperature is still up to 30C during the day, but the nights are a bit cooler and it rains every day a bit. There are also thunderstorms and hailstorms around, but we have been lucky.
I'm glad that your temperatures are getting warmer, so you don't have to sleep in a fridge anymore 😉
Thanks for liking the photos, my friends, wishing you a lovely evening 😊
Sending !PIZZA and !LUV as always 😉

Hi Hannes,
Something strange here, as I am starting to feel the same way. Now with the fall of crypto prices, our post incomes are slaughtered, and we are losing out big time. So, maybe soon I will also have to make a decision to slow things down. It's a lot of work doing quality posts every day, but I have to say that nowhere else will we get paid well for our blogs, so I am thinking to slow things down by only doing two or three posts per week. A powerdown will also have to be done, but I am waiting for things to get better.
Oh yes, and it's wise to cancel the AC at night 😉 !LOLZ
Glad to see that your nights are starting to get cooler, and not so long now before your winter arrives. I have seen you getting along very well in the snow, and at least then your African temperatures will be gone 🙏
Hahaha, I don't know what it is to get a full night's sleep my friend. So often I am jerked awake with toe or calf cramps, and I think that my legs don't like the early morning extra cold. In summer I sleep only with a sheet on top, and the legs are happy 😊
Always a pleasure to see your photos and all our love to you and your family 😍
Cheers and thanks.
Good morning Zac,
I had already replied to this, but it seems the system didn't take it - also strange 🙃
My plan is to wait till the end of 2024 and then decide whether to leave or stay. Maybe it will all get better, who knows, but posting here is no option for me at the moment.
Posts on Instagram or X are easy and quickly made. I don't get any money for such posts, of course, but the audience is much bigger, although my accounts are too small to get more than a few views or likes 😂 !LOLZ
I'm wishing you two guys a wonderful weekend with warm temperatures for a good sleep 🌞😊
Sending !PIZZA and !LUV as always 😉

Good evening Hannes,
As long as we stay in touch, as we have a mutual bond, then all will be well with your decisions. I cannot tell you what to do, as you have to do what is the best for you my friend.
Just a heads up, my health is not 100% lately, and to tell you the truth, I am up at 2-3am most mornings. but I simply continue. I am tired of seeing doctors, as all that they do is to give me more pills, and so, no more doctors and I will just continue to handle each day the best that I can.
If you are happy with the general media, then I am happy for you, but whatever you do, don't let us lose contact with each other. Else I will cry 🙏 !LOLZ
May you have a special weekend, as you know who reminded me that it's your birthday on Sunday. I don't know how to contact you on Sunday, but if I don't see you, then we both wish you a very Happy Birthday, and may our Lord give you many more!
Cheers and thanks.
Hi Zac,
thanks, my friend, but even I can't tell myself what to do. At the moment I even can't convince myself to get up in the morning to take photos when I don't have to go to work ... I just stay in bed and later I regret, but it's the same next time.
But I'm trying hard to find my Mojo again, so 2 days ago I got up at 2 in the morning and tried something new to me: photos of the Perseid Meteor Shower. I got some meteors, but I think I'll have to try it again some time in the future, because I have found out that it's more work than taking photos of waterfalls ;)
I can fully understand that you have enough of going to the doctors and I do hope that my decision to avoid them as long as I can is the right decision.
And I do hope that you're doing the right thing, because you have taken so many pills for such a long time... many diseases disappear on their own just by believing ... I don't know, but I hope 🙏
I don't like my birthdays anyway and I was happy when all the birthday wishes were over on Monday, and I was happy for everyone who has forgotten to send Happy Birthday wishes 🤣 !LOLZ
But thank you so much for thinking of me and for the good wishes, my friends 😊
Hope you're feeling well and that everything's fine 😊🌞
Sending !PIZZA and !LUV as always 😉
