I live barefooted and naked, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i. I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
I'm on the edge of my seat with excitement, because after many months of working toward it, little by little, bit by bit, step by step, I now only have two more steps to go to reach my goal of attaining dolphin 🐬 level by #HPUD on December 1st! I know I've been talking about this a lot my my recent posts, but this is big for me, and I'm sooooo close! When all is said and done, I will have grown my Hive Power by almost 100%, which is absolutely incredible, especially considering that no outside fiat investments were used to do it!
To be able to reach my dolphin-level goal by December 1st, the two steps that still need to happen are, 1.) the HIVE value of my 8,685.53645290 SWAP.DOGE has to go just over 0.0255, which will cause my sell order to go though, and 2.) I need to time it right so that the SWAP.HIVE side of the SWAP.HIVE-HIVE bridges on USwap or BeeSwap is lower than the HIVE side so that I can convert my SWAP.HIVE to HIVE without having to pay a fee (I'd actually get a bonus). If anyone happens to know of any other way to convert SWAP.HIVE to HIVE without having to pay a fee, please let me know! I was happy to learn that BeeSwap does this too, just like USwap, though USwap is usually better overall for this particular purpose. At least I have two possible places where I can do this now, which doubles my chances of success!
Given that all the starting points for the Hive-Power levels are moving targets, continually going over time, I have to keep that in mind as I run my calculations. Last week it was approximately 5,712 HP needed to reach dolphin level, and this week it's about 5,714 HP. This information can be easily checked in @arcange's excellent and very informative daily Hive Statistics posts.
By the end of today I'll have approximately 3,035 HP, which is 100% organic growth from my time, energy, and efforts on this glorious Blockchain over the past 2+ years. When I do my massive #HPUD power up, it will be the first time I've used outside crypto assets (also earned organically) to invest in Hive. It's pretty incredible, and quite exciting, that I've been able to grow my account to this level with no outside investments, and that I'm able to invest so much from outside Hive into the Ecosystem at once now! Amazingballs, and yipee yahooey! When I say that I love and believe in this Blockchain, and there I'm all in for the long haul, I mean it!
Yesterday, Saturday, I got all my essential Hive tasks and a fair bit of catching up on my notifications done, by around 3PM, which is when I left the Flow House to go do some land work. Since I took all the photos for this post in the monrning, just after making my superfood fire coffee, I didn't have to do so in the afternoon. My first task of the day was to replace a damaged hose head in my nursery. That didn't take long, and soon I made my way to Ano's nursery to do another round of paid bamboo propagation work. That didn't go quite as easily or smoothly as I would have liked, but I still got a fair bit done. After finishing bamboo propagation, I took a shower (to help with the itchy burn from little fire ants), then I grabbed my machete and collected a wheelbarrow full of Cecropia leaves for next morning's milking cow food. I finished that just before sunset.
After working, I took another shower, strained out kefir for my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend, got food supplies from Tutu's, made myself some food, got my kitten friend some food, then I made my way back to the Flow House for my evening round of Hive catch-up and tasks. I was able to get everything caught up and done by about 10:30PM, and after a short round of token management, I went to bed. I slept well until 3AM, and not being able to sleep, I put my time to use and completed @benthomaswwd's @heartbeatonhive contest, another short round of token management, then I went back to sleep until around 8:30AM, at which point I got out of bed to go get my leftover superfood fire coffee from the Landing fridge, and to get my kitten friend some food. Like yesterday, today I also took all of the photos for tomorrow's iteration of this post in the morning. I really like doing that in the morning, as the light is often better, and it means I don't have to think about it later, so I can get right into land work.
It's now getting close to 12:30PM, so it's a great time to end this post now, so that I can get to a few essential Hive tasks before going to swap out a broken washing machine for a working one in Power Sharing, get cow food, begin my thorough round of catching up on all my Hive notifications and token management, a few more important Hive tasks, and then finally beginning to compile the token data for, and to start writing, my 77th Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update, which I'll publish just before going to bed. I deeply appreciate you all very much! Until that post tonight, and the next expression of this post tomorrow! Onward and upward, joyfully together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
All photos were taken with my Motorola G Power Android Phone.
Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
