**Magandang buhay!**
We had a breezy Saturday morning in DD, a little colder than usual, and the sun was playing peek-a-boo behind the gray clouds, indicating the rain would come early, and it did around midday. It was heavy and lingered all afternoon. Mr. B was not pleased because he couldn't finish the day's job. Oh well, it's nature's call, so what can we do?
Nothing much, but we can choose how we respond to it.
Me? I spent most of the day in front of my computer screen, trying out editing apps and tools. I have been wanting to organize and edit the numerous videos/short clips in my archives, but my occasional *laziness* got in the way, putting it on hold for so long. Thankfully, the LilGuy's page gave me a good kick, so I'm on it. Sometimes, we just need a little nudge to keep us going.
That just reminded me of my ultimate dream before my nth birthday. The years are swiftly going by, and I'm not even halfway through that goal. But I'm working on it. No excuses.
Speaking of goals, it's time to do a quick update on our progress toward our targets, which we intentionally skipped last week.
For HBD Savings, a total of 77 HBD was added over the last two weeks, which is a decent increase as far as I'm concerned.
- Current Balance: 1854 HBD
- Previous Update: 1777 HBD
That included the interest received four days ago. The monthly interest is slowly growing each month. Small amounts, but better than being idle. That's over a hundred HBD in six months. Not bad, huh?
Meanwhile, some 12.6k sats have been added to my tiny stacks:
- Current Balance: 200,122 sats (0.002 BTC)
- Previous Update: 187,522 sats
Small addition, but it's good to see the numbers changed after a few weeks of stagnation, lol! I honestly *thought* BTC would drop below $110k, but it looks like that's not going to happen soon.
And finally, my staked HIVE is now at 27,474. About 452 HP was added in the last fourteen days. We shall see if it crosses the 28k mark by the end of this month. It would be great if it does. If not, it's still okay.😉
