I'm Back!

It's been a pretty quiet week for my page if you follow me - I think it's been a full week without a post, but it's been for a very good reason!

We officially welcomed this little bundle into the family on the 21st, which has left me without a lot of free time to write. More accurately, I just prefer to snuggle a baby, so it's been lower on my priority list. Which as a result means my weekly update is going to be pretty lack-lustre on the earnings end and that's totally okay.

We've had a ton of family over and visiting, getting to meet this little one and it's been a great time. Her two siblings adore her as well, which is always nice.

Now that the first week is gone, I think I'll be back to posting more regularly in the coming days - but I'm not going to hold myself to anything. We'll just go with the flow and see what happens.

I'm currently sitting at 1,124.281 HBD and I've just managed to re-sub to InLeo for another month which is great. My Leo stack is sitting at a modest 18.592 Liquid, and 1,440.49 staked, which isn't bad given that this 18 Leo gain has been largely earned while posting memes on InLeo and just chatting with folks I enjoy - pretty passive and very relaxed, which is a great way to go.

As for Hive/HP, I'm up to 716.777, which is a gain of about 46 Hive - not much at ALL, but with two weeks of very few posts, that's not surprising and doesn't at all impact my year-end goals. I am confident I will be past 1k well before December - and honestly depending on how my wife's newly-begun maternity leave goes... I might be able to put some fiat into Hive again which would be great. Having done this twice before, I can quite honestly say that even with her reduced income while on Employment Insurance for maternity leave, we have always come out way ahead financially when she's home and I'm working. No daycare costs, a lot less gas spent, and we both actually have enough energy throughout the day to keep up on housework, cooking, and all that fun stuff. It's difficult when we're both working to have enough energy to fit a day's worth of after-work-chores into a 3-4 hour span when we also want to give our kids attention... so I'm pretty optimistic that we'll see the same great growth we did with my eldest and middle kids during this last maternity leave.

My wildest "things are going very well" hopes would be that I could get right back to 11k+ HP within the next year but we'll see - that'll take a good bit of dedicated posting and some dedicated fiat-purchases... but it's important to have pie-in-the-sky goals as well as more grounded ones so we'll just see what happens and roll with it!

I hope you're all doing great!
