Although I enjoyed my time in Kraków and steemfest, I’m glad to be home. During the trip to Kraków I heard that one has never heard somebody whine as much as I about their holiday, and I’m guilty, I admit it.
So, what did I whine about?
I’m selfish, specially when it comes to my time and using it. When I have different plans about life and someone or ones fuck up my plans I get cranky. Yes, I’m like a child who doesn’t get her will. But aren’t we all in a way? Extreme stimulation gets us all sometimes, for some the limit is just lower. That happened to me and I’m not proud of it. I’m usually very adaptable and I hold changes better than people maybe usually would. Usually my life depends on this skill. Now that very skill failed me big time.
I worked 20h shifts up to 6 to 7 days a week to make this trip happen, to have a holiday that I wouldn’t need to feel guilty about. To make up my absence from work and life in general. I prefer suffering before handed, so I wouldn’t have to pay to toll after enjoying my time.
I pushed my self to the very limit and over it just because of what? Unknown. The ultimate leap of faith. I’m glad I did it, but it wasn’t holiday as I thought it would be. I didn’t rest. That is something from what I’m paying the price now.
When one comes back from holiday, they want to feel well rested, ready to face the responsibilities of daily life. I don’t feel that way. This has nothing to do with steemfest or people in it. This is me and my expectations failing. And there is enough woman in me to admit that it bugs me out.
What now?
I’m one of those weirdos that actually like their life. For now. But I still dream to have vacation to recover from vacation. Daily life isn’t draining to me, not like it was before steemfest. I need to work only regular hours and let’s face it, it almost feel like holiday to me.
I remember you telling me about how hard you worked! That is some commitment to get to steemfest for sure. I'm glad to hear you are working more normal hours... everyone can suffer burn out, even the toughest peeps.
Get down the pool and spar would be my advice, if you enjoy that sort of thing. Nothing relaxes me more than a massive swim then sauna/Jacuzzi. That used to be my hangover routine when I had a proper job and the money to go along with it 😅.....
Oh yeah, and enjoy the whine ;-)
Sauna is definately my choise when it comes to relaxing. And after two burnouts already i have come to a point that i have to admit to my self that im not immortal... things are luckily much easier now and i take it fairly easy. Only 5 days a week and no more than 14h at the time 😅
I didn't know that you worked so hard to make the trip, this deserves much credit!
Even though the trip was pretty awesome, it's been great catching up on sleep and resting the ears and vocal chords.
Nice to meet you on this particular escape :)
Yeah it took a bit extra effort to get some free time, but I wouldn’t change that experience to anything. I also like to be home tho and catching sleep has been priceless 😅
It was nice to meet you too! Let’s hope there will be more escapes to come:)
I'm pretty sure there are more escapes to come, but first, siesta :)
Tell me about it! Vacation from vacation 😅
This is a sign of a highly intelligent mind apparently ⭐️⭐️
Aww! Are you trying to make me blush ! 😏
Hehehe. it's science :)
I value so much higher when one compliments my brain than the looks 💕
