Down the Docks - Monomad Challenge

Hail to the Hive!

Lately I have been neglecting my hive posts as I've been on a nightshift grind and feel like a walking zombie during the day but a recent trip to Plymouth rekindled a bit of the old blogging inspiration I needed and it came mostly from a walk down the docks and the vibe of the fishing boats moored up there.

I found my mind drifting off to memories of our recent year and a half living aboard Badger the Narrowboat and looking forward to getting back into the floating life groove that we were in living on the canals here in the UK. There's a definite lure, an attraction pulling me back towards this life. I think it's the nomad and adventurer in me that makes it so appealing. Rootless, in motion, drifting. Always a new place to go to. It's in my blood.

So I am going to have to make myself a promise and keep on the hive vibe as I realise I have been sucked into a kind of normal working type life cycle. Eat sleep, work, repeat. Several weeks have whizzed by without me posting and this day trip has jolted me back into a different focus.

On my days off I need to get out and explore more as we will be off on our travels again soon and I will regret not peeling back the layers of this place if I don't get out there more. THis nightshift cycle I find myself in is a means to an end but I mustn't let it consume me or derail my other interests.

And the Black and White community is a great outlet for me to get myself back into the block chain.

Nice monochromes and a good reminder I should have some in the future and post them to Hive

Thanks man! I’ve been a bit absent recently which is really strange for me so I needed to motivate myself to get posting again and b&w is my favourite medium so nice to get something done.

Yup, back on it again. After we sold the boat and temporarily moved down to Devon I got a bit derailed by working nights. I’m making good on my promise to myself to get back on it again though. Will have more tomorrow!

Sweet, don’t want to lose that momentum that you built up.

Exactly 😃. I think now I am back into it again I’ll be fine. It’s amazing how easily you can get derailed and how fast the time flies
