@abh12345

Thanks for the invite and I am flattered. I think I would enjoy taking part, but I do not think I should.

I suffer from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. It is caused by repetitive action, such as typing, playing a guitar, working as a mechanic. I only fall under the first category. Sometimes I get carried away and post a few longer than usual comments and that night I have difficulty sleeping because of the pain.

Also, I find my memory is not so good anymore and I find my stamina weakening to the point where I need to take a break to nap for an hour halfway through my day (am 75 years old).

I foresee I will only be able to do less and less as time goes by - unless something drastic happens to change my life...like go to Russia for rejuvenation treatment :)

I have had some very generous offers since joining steemit, for instance, if I make certain posts, I'll get voted by the community, giving me an income which is better than I receive as a pension in S Africa, which is about US $125 pm. I had to turn them down - but turning you down costs me more, as I have a mania about wanting to help new posters, those I sense have talent and need help. Working with you would help me achieve that dream, but, I really cannot.

I can help, one at a time, posters I consider talented poets or authors of fiction (especially fantasy) - so if you find one you think I should help, please feel free to send me their link.

If I may, I would like to suggest someone who has talent, is a wonderful person and seems to have boundless energy. Why not invite @dreemsteem ?

hi again @arthur.grafo

I fully understand why you would not feel this a suitable under-taking, no hard feelings at all.

This comment alone shows me that you would do well, but it certainly sounds like it is not in your best interest to produce this length of comment, day in day out.

Hopefully @dreemsteem receives a notification of this offer and comments.

Thanks for your reply, have a great day :)

Hi there! Wow!!!! Thanks for the nod and for the list in the above post! I have been getting inundated with GINA notifications lately - and I didn't even see that this post had tagged me! I would have missed it altogether had @arthur.grafo not mentioned me in his comment :) (thanks Arthur!)

I've been insanely busy these past few weeks with juggling 2 temporary jobs - but they should clear up within the next two weeks! (hopefully???) hehehe

I will check out the post on the Engagement League! sounds intriguing!!!

Thank you @abh12345!!! What a fun little notification to get on my birthday! must have been meant to be! hehehehe

@dreemsteem
Χρόνια Πολλά - Happy Birthday (have you caught up with your daughter yet? - Kids nowadays seem to be born older...

oh... i think we are the same age now hehehehehe we love to giggle but her humor is so well-developed! She has me laughing ALL DAY LONG

THANK YOU for the birthday wishes! :)

Well a happy, possibly now belated, birthday to you!

It sounds like your schedule is pretty busy right now, but when you have a bit more time then I think it would be worth joining in the fun :D
