Saturday Savers: Despite The Odds

This week started real good for me. Things were going fine until suddenly, it all changed. My discomfort started with work and then moved into my business and basically, the only thing that kept me going was the knowledge of whose I am and where I come from.

Hive was also a major participant because I forget everything when I come here. At work, I would get lost in the world of different perspectives and visions. My mind gets busy, emptied of all not so good thoughts!

Paying Bills

Since I joined the Saturday Savers, I have looked forward to every weekend when I can go Hive Shopping but it wasn't possible today. It is the beginning of the month which means bills need to be paid. Woke up this morning to a pressing line of them. I had already settled some at the closing of last month, which I am grateful for.

Mom and I split the bills so we could live comfortably. She handles half and I do the other half. It has been good so far.

Not being able to go Shopping this weekend did not in anyway douse my fire. It only reminded me that things wouldn't always work as planned. The fact that I was actually prepared for it is what I choose to dwell on. This means I am starting to really handle my finances a little better. Hah!

In your face, Life!

Still Moving Forward...

I am overall happy that despite everything, I did move up a smidge in my goals:

  • I participated in the Hive Power up day, boosting my HP by 10

  • A tiny level-up in my savings

  • Earning some more LEO (through engagement) and DHEDGE

This one 👇 was last week:

So, the stone is still rolling and I would definitely be participating in the upcoming LPUD.

Ugh, bills!!! I'm behind this month and I hate it. Need to get a few more days work but nothing around this time of year.

Ahhh! I feel you. I am also still behind. At this moment, I am hoping for a miracle. Jobs here is just another word for exploitation. Peanut for hours of your precious time

Yea that's the fact.. At times , things can change one's mood but never give up

Thank you.

It is an honor really and thank you!

You're doing good ! Don't let real life get you down (yeah, I know, easy to say that, not so easy to do sometimes....). If there are times when real life bills stop you buying Hive, don't beat yourself up over it, just use it as motivation to engage more on Hive and make up for it with author and curation rewards. 😀

That is my plan! Thank you so much for your meaningful comment!

Fantastic Deraaa! You see even though it was frustrating and you paid bills etc, you still grew. Slowly but surely you are getting there, and steady wins the race.
My week was not as good as I would have liked, however like you I still made progress, and that is a win-win in my book!
Well done Deraa I am chuffed for you, next week we shall go Hive shopping again:)
PS Well done for participating in HPUD!
