Wow. Thank you, Dan. I never think of my posts that way, but, you just made my day! I appreciate it. Now, to catch up! No computer and my phone overheated today. The universe wants my gadgets back!

I hope you are having a great day!

I'm so glad I did this, I've long wanted to say something but you didn't really believe me until now.
I hope the issue with your gadgets has been resolved. We are so attached to them.

I went three months without a phone. I actually was fine with it. :) That was less than two years ago. You know my computer broke before and I do need it to pay bills and the like. I like the technology, but, when they break, I take the opportunity to be without and free.

Now, I must get on top of my MarketFriday posts! Between my gadgets and my sister being in the hospital, time was not mine. Today, I can breathe a little easier.

I found myself getting attached to the phone and other gadgets. I try to have a healthy balance without being out of step.

What did you do for your birthday???

Oh, Denise! I'm trying to understand. First of all, I must say I'm sorry your sister is ill. I realize it's hard for you too and I'm ashamed that I was complaining about much lighter problems.

I have started to use the money earned here. I know everyone is looking for more voting power and expecting Hive to reach high values, consequently many here will be very rich..., but what if that doesn't happen? The younger ones have time to wait, but no one knows how long. So I took a few holidays paying with Hive and paid off some debts. Unfortunately, this year is off to a bad start for me and I may need everything I've saved up here. That would be very bad, it would probably mean the end of me here and I hope it doesn't happen, I don't know yet...

What do I mean by that? My opinion is (please forgive me for thinking I can give advice) that it is good to indulge from time to time and not hesitate to use the money earned for small pleasures or needs.

I think you are absolutely right! I feel guilty saying when I use some of the money for small pleasures, but, that is why we all work so hard, yes? The money earned here is ours to use how we see fit. I never power it down because I have other streams of cash that flow. It is fortunate for me, but, If I didn't have it, I would definitely use this.

You shouldn't be ashamed of saying things. I never feel that way about you. We all have to bellyache once in a while, it feels good to get it all out. My sister is ill, that is true, most of it is caused by her lifelong addiction to smoking. :( She is getting treatment, but, the damage caused will not get better, but, she can take care of what she has left. It is just hard to watch.

Even if you power it all down, you can still post here, although it may not be what you want to do. I feel like you still have stories inside of you. I personally never tire of them, but, of course, I respect whatever you do. I still have your email. I am not worried you will disappear. :)

This year is a bad year for you? I didn't know that! I am so sorry to hear this. I hope Magda is feeling better as I know it was a slow go in feeling 100% for her.

I like the way you think! Life should be enjoyed! I am not ashamed to say that I do! :)

"Life should be enjoyed!" I'm so glad you're doing this, Denise. I try too, often it works for me, but there are still many things that stop me. I don't want to complain now.

It's hard for me to read about your sister. I too know what this addiction to smoking means and how harmful it can be. Once again I wish her all the best!

I hope it's not that bad though and I don't have to destroy the whole HP. See, I made a correlation between HP and the number reflecting reputation. When I saw colleagues with high reputation and very low HP I thought they got their reputation artificially, you know you could in the past with bots. Now I realize that for most it actually meant a need for money, a problem that arose in their lives. It's only when you're in a similar situation that you learn to pay more attention and understand better.

I am now in great lack of inspiration, I still don't know what I'm going to write for #marketfriday..., I'm searching, searching.
All the best, dear Denise!

Yes. Many high reps/no SP calls for a power down.Some have bought crypto with it, others, a financial need. That is what we earn for, yes? The truth is, my sister will never get better, but she can take care of the health she has got. She is more positive about keeping it better.

Please dont worry about Market Friday. I know your heart and sometimes it is just not in the cards that day. Thanks, Dan! @bluemoon i hope whatever is going on in your life, it sorts itself out. Be well.
