Hey hey. Nice topics for the weekend again!
My weekend plans comprises of cleaning and being bossed around by my kid. Also doing dinner with friends and would love to go for a nice run, weather dependant! What's going on your side?
You've got being bossed around planned on the weekend? Nice, you get to do all the cool stuff!
I'll be at the range Saturday running and gunning in a match although have a doctor's appointment prior. Saturday night will be the couch and a movie or two and Sunday is yet to be determined although there's be some gun cleaning at some stage. I think I'll take a drive however, there's a couple antique stores I want to check out. Nothing much really, just relaxing I suppose, certainly nothing exciting is happening.
Lol to be fair, I also do a fair share of bossing. Gotta pull rank from time to time! How did the running and gunning go? I hope you had good news at the doctor's. Lots of appointments happening of late! !HUG !LUV
One must boss if one is bossed. Said boss must be paid forward.
I had a great time and did well; a top five finish out of just over sixty competitors. I'm not that much into winning, continual improvement is my thing, but I'm not at all in to being shit so yeah, I went at it hard and got the result.
I hope you're well and had a good weekend.
But oh, I'm not competitive! I just don't think half are shit! Well done too! Not too shabby at all, kicking but and taking names! Hive hi5!
I did have a good one, didn't do all I planned and did some stuff I didn't plan to do! So that's all good. Just been a busy week here, on my side. So just trodding along! Getting shit done. Slacking on my replies lol
!PIZZA
I go ok, a lot of effort has gone into that, training and in the field, so yeah I guess I expect certain results...and I get them.
Busy week. Productive tough I hope. It's Friday tomorrow though, and you can look forward to another weekend of getting bossed around. Lol.
!LOLZ the girl already has plans i tell you!
Thats great man. You put in effort you want to reap the results. Nothing wrong in that. We always have I eye secretly on the prize, human nature, although we all don't like to admit it!
Productive as i can be. I could be more productive but I get distracted! And clients bug me with"urgent" things. Constantly want to get in touch with the Google police, coz i have direct contacts you know. LOL

I am finding the quotes very interesting, you included it last weekend and it really made me think deeply.
I would have loved the haircut story but it was even before the time when camera phones became available in my country.
We were going to receive a family from the airport and I had to go cut my hair late in the night. The experience was horrible and for the first time in my life I had to shave the whole hair because I could go around with my hairline starting almost at the middle.
I am looking forward to having fun, my mom is around and spending time with her will be great. Miss her so much.
How are you doing today? I am sure you have got lots of activity as well, I can feel the energy buzzing.
Yeah, I figure that would be the case with the hair cut one. Some may have a photo though.
I really wish there was a photo of this, would be hilarious!
I'm good. Friday night here, just finishing some comments and will go and get my stuff ready for the gun range Saturday morning. There's a big run and gun event on and I'm going there to
destroy the competitionhave fun with some mates.I hope you have a good weekend.
It will indeed be hilarious and I would have made an NFT out of it because of my silly friends who will want a copy at all cost.
How I wish we could see some of the shooting games, it would be fun to watch.
Yeah, it's a great deal of fun, the shooting I'll be doing tomorrow. Maybe you'll get to see it someday.
Hi Galen, as always everything that drives creation is welcome; interesting topics, here I am already preparing my publication before I leave for work.
Have the best weekend engagement 💜, with excellent and nourished reads.
Work...yeah you're a little behind on the clock...here's it's after dinner Friday night and...well, it's the weekend already.
Enjoy your day.
Under the same SKY ☕🌀
greetings dear comrade @galenkp this weekend I have to receive my guard, in fact I'm only hours away from that, I hope you enjoy yours, as long as there is a period of time I will encourage you to participate, as always there are many interesting topics I'll see which one I choose
Ah ok, well good luck this weekend, I hope it all goes well.
Awesome! Got just the photos and subject for this one. Your brother's holiday trip actually jogged my memory for it. Need to dig through my old photos today or tomorrow, but should be able to find what is needed.
So, got a replacement camera by the way as a stop gap. It is the same type. Found it on eBay for a real good price. As I have said, I am all about familiarity.😀
Hope you have an aweome weekend my friend!
I'm intrigued, and look forward to your post with great anticipation.
Well done on the camera, hopefully that focus doesn't let you down this time. I'm interested to see what it produces.
Running and gunning at the range tomorrow, (IPSC), Sunday probably looking at some antique shops and lunch. Relaxed weekend. I hope you have a good one too.
Antique shopping, I love going to those and seeing the days gone by. Occasionally I can find some old coins at one as well for a good deal.
Yeah, I picked it up real cheap, and it is a stop gap. I am still on the hunt for something more modern and better.
One of the best
What is one of the best things that happened on your trip to another county. This has to be a trip you have personally taken and your post must use photos you took yourself on that trip. Your post must be at least 300 words
Hi @galenkp, can it be to another city in my country?
I'd prefer it to be another country.
This time it's really difficult, because I have to choose between two that I would love to write... the 2nd and the 4th topic... I have to decide, maybe this time I'll have more fun than philosophizing. 🤣
I love them, your topics are great, as I was looking forward to read them!
Thanks Galen!
Think it through, you'll come up with the right thing to do.
I will.... my owl spirit told me what to do, it always guides me, except when the panther or the black horse beats it...
I'll let my intuition choose.😉
Great topics as always. This will bring out the creative and the intelligent minds out there..
Happy and great weekend to everyone.
Thanks, I hope there's some good entries, I'm looking forward to reading them. Have a good weekend.
Excellent proposals, I am thinking about my trip to Cartajena de Indias and Bogota in Colombia, the best thing that happened to me was the excellent company of a great friend. The food, the places and the people. I will be telling you in a post. I don't have the photos in digital, at that time I used roll film hahaha.
It sounds like an interesting trip. Take photos of your printed photos, the result will similar.
Yes, here I am thinking about how to remove the glare that results after taking the picture. Editing with them hahaha
I've done the same in the past...I just accepted the fact that it wasn't perfect and moved on. Life is never perfect after all.
Hope you all have a great weekend!Hurrah almost weekend! I decided to keep my roll from last weekend going and send my entry in early before the weekend gets the best of me and I don't manage to get to it. So here we go: https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@plint/we-162-simply-the-best
Oh great, I'll take a look shortly.
I hope you have a good weekend. 😋
Interesting topics.
Yeah.
Hi @galenkp. This weekend I have to fill the gas tank of my car. Here in my country there is rationing and the tanks are filled by plate number depending on the day, that if the gasoline is subsidized. Sometimes the wait is up to 8 hours, I hope to be lucky tomorrow and get out of the gas station fast. When I get home I plan to marathon some series with my wife and if she wants with my daughter. On Sunday I will dedicate myself to enjoy publications in Hive.
This week's proposals are very attractive, but I am very attracted to the philosophy of the emperor Marcus Aurelius, here is my participation.
https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@nbarrios67/a-stoic-approach-to-life
Happy weekend.
Hopefully you get your fuel quickly and can get home and enjoy a series. All the best for the weekend.
This week's topics are encouraging me to do a weekend post, something I haven't done in a while
No worries, I hope you have a good weekend ahead too.
Damn. Too bad there are no photos from that time my brother put gum in my hair. It was a 1st prize for a bad haircut. 😂😂😂
Lol...that would have been funny. Probably wasn't funny for you at the time though.
It would have been. I remember it was frustrating at the moment
The weekend themes remind me of something that already happened to me with a bad haircut.
My entry
WEEK 162. That's how they shaved my hair.
I hope you have a good weekend.
Thanks. We've all had a bad haircut at least once right?
Very interesting topics really, I'd like to talk a bit about the first one but I'm not sure if I have pictures about it, I remember it was a particular work trip in a complicated situation, so pictures were a secondary thing.
Let's see what I come up with, I'm already thinking about what to do haha.
Regarding what I will do this weekend, well Sunday as I usually do I will go to church with my wife and kids, tomorrow maybe relax a bit from the daily chores.
Good luck with your post, and have a good weekend.
Hello!!
https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@brujita18/week-162-my-interpretation
Ok.
Hehe, alright this is fun! I will have to go with the quote as it spoke to me. Hehe, let's see if the words can be typed.
I hope you had a fun-filled day because I did. Hehe. Happy weekend!
It's good that you had a great day, I hope the weekend is the same.
Hehe... I hope so too. It is hard to believe I didn't take a sleeping tablet with the rate at which I have been sleeping. Haha.
I have had Bad Hair Months...
And No Hair months like currently...
But I have never had 300+ word hair! That is why most days I keep a lid on it.
Guess I better consider writing 300 about my former (Past Tense) Animal characteristic of Panther like agility and Cheetah 🐆 like speed.
This giphy would be what that ability would l👀k like now.
Lol, just rollin' like a cheetah huh?
Happy evening and start of the weekend to all. May the activities planned for the weekend be very rewarding.

Hello @galenkp. Here my participation: https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@mariela53/the-soul-is-tinged-with-the-color-of-your-thoughts--week-162
Yeah, but you didn't follow the rules unfortunately. It's such a shame as I've had to mute your post.
many humans have animal-like characteristics including me, I think I will review one of these animal characteristics for my entry
A dolphin huh? Good choice.
Hello @galenkp! This week's themes look interesting. Let's see which one I go for, although my weekend promises to keep me at home with my homework, I hope yours is fun and you have a super good time!!! A hug!!!
I'm glad you like them and I hope you have a great weekend ahead. 😊
Well, here is my participation
https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@cjlugo/interpreting-the-emperors-quote-or-weekend-engagement-writing-topics-week-162
OK.
Can't choose a topic since I didn't travel to another country HAHA, the last choice is interesting since I think I have the knowledge to interpret based on my thoughts, so I'm gonna try it.
Good plan.
You leave us some good food for thought. Here is my participation. Happy weekend dear @galenkp .

Thank you for letting me know.
Hello friend, thanks to you
I would say I’d write on something and then not do it. So, not to jinx myself (like I always seem to do), I decided to just keep mute until I really do it! Ha! It worked. Lol. Thank you for the topics.
Had a bad hairdo once but that was way before I even had a phone. The lady made what I didn’t ask for. If you know what a calabar hairstyle is, it turned out pretty much that way. It was painful to me because I’d go to school looking like Cinderella gone wrong.
https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@deraaa/as-a-man-thinketh?referral=deraaa
Yes, I've noticed you do that a lot, say you'll get involved and then not do so which is why I ignore those comments when you make them.
Lmaaaaaaaaooooo. Bad habits.
Hello! Enjoy the rest of the weekend

Excellent, thank you for entering.
☺️👍🏼 Thank you
Really wonderful quote by Marcus Aurelius. I will write about it. Happy Week End Everybody. Thank you very much @galenkp Every Week End you have interesting topics for us.
It's a great quote and one that can make a difference in a person's life if they understand and apply it.
Another wonderful topics to explore for this weekend, okay let me get writing before I resume class.
There's no hurry, there is still 24 hours to go...as of two minutes ago.
Hello everyone. I'm always late to the party.
Here's my entry https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@marriot5464/weekend-engagement-marcus-aurelius-quote?referral=marriot5464
You're not late, there's still over 20 hours before entries close.
That's great. Thank you for having me sir.
This time @galenkp, there are more funny topics. As I have not suffered with bad hair cut so I preferably write post on my animal Characteristics 😂. Thank you once again for these amazing and funny topics.
No worries, if a topic feels right for you then go with it.
Mate! Can I use the logo of the weekend Experiences community? If you allow it will be an honor for me. Thank you!
I'd rather you did not if that's ok.
I may not get to post this weekend 🫤. My dad usually works out with me Saturday and Sunday mornings, and then plays with the kids, which creates a window for me to do something if my choosing. He had to take this weekend off for a trip outta town, so I’m full-time dadding it this weekend. Hoping for some time later today to consider the topics, come up with pics & a post still 🤞. Happy weekend to you!
No worries, the real world has to come first. If you get to it then great, otherwise there's always next week.
Excelentes temas para un compromiso me encantaría usarlos todos pero lastimosamente los descubrí tarde, justo hace unos minutos fue que observe esta publicacion, sin embargo quisiera saber si es posible responder a todos los temas en una sola publicacion y si es asi ¿cual es el limite de palabras?
I'm sorry, I don't speak Spanish.
Excellent topics for an engagement I would love to use them all but unfortunately I discovered them late, just a few minutes ago I saw this post, however I would like to know if it is possible to respond to all the topics in one post and if so what is the word limit? sorry for writing in Spanish
There's still about 10 hours to go before entries are closed but if you don't have time there will be new topics this Friday. You can write on all topics but it might be best to focus your efforts into only one so it is your best work.
Fortunately when I told you my question I already had most of my publication ready, I was just waiting for your confirmation. Thank you very much for answering and I invite you to look at my participation: https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@juva/sly-as-a-fox-weekend

Have a great Week
Hello friend, I think I did everything wrong ha,ha,ha,ha. The translator told me that "there were 4 hours left to finish the publication" and it was THAT 4 HOURS AGO THE CHALLENGE FINISHED 🙃.
Also, that the publication was in another "county" I understood that way and it is ANOTHER COUNTRY ha,ha,ha,ha. I have pictures in another country, but I thought I would show you a nice island that is very close to me 🙃.
I have to change the translator 😊. Thanks anyway and I'll keep an eye out for other initiatives that I can see you're taking very far.
SUCCESS!
I know it can be difficult with a translator. If you use Peakd I put a countdown timer on the topics post so you'll know exactly how long is left to go to the minute.
