Well, hrm 😕 looks like today was the first day (well, besides yesterday but we were traveling, so that doesn’t count) that I didn’t go out for a walk. 😢 Been doing really well for the past couple weeks trying to get back into the habit, so we’re going to have to get back on it right quick or risk backsliding again.

I totally crashed out hard last evening for a good three hours, so it was kind of late by the time I went to bed (woke up at bedtime 😛). Ended up making it from about ten thirty until around six, still a couple hours short, but at this point it’s hard to call it…it was at least better than the last two nights to say the bare minimum.

I’d really planned on getting some stuff done for the semester that’s starting on this coming Monday and my stress level is pretty high at the moment…still haven’t heard a peep about Algebra, so I haven’t even started the first steps of planning for that. Nevertheless, Wenche had the day off and it was kind of like a Saturday and Sunday rolled into one and I didn’t end up working on too much of anything other than rewatching some YouTube videos to make sure I’m solid on the material.

Started to get back into the morning routine and was disappointed to find that I’d totally missed all the Pizza giveaways. 😭 I usually wait to do them all at once, but I was qualified for all but the last one…should have just gone for it. 🤬. Oh, well.

Otherwise, checked on the crypto markets, flashing a couple percent red everywhere, shifted and staked tokens, did some curation, checked on the SOL market and got a new member squared away, played some Wombat games, and then worked on my post.

After I got my post published and shared, we headed into town to do our grocery shopping that we skipped from yesterday. Ended up getting quite a bit of meat, which jacks the price up real fast, and we busted $150 easy…our buying habits haven’t changed much over the last five years, but we’re paying around fifty percent more over that time. 🤬 Nah, no recession, inflation is transitory and under control. Puh. 😛

Got home, put everything away, and got a sandwich for lunch. Watched some more Calculus videos for a bit (I’m getting to a point now that I feel like I have a solid idea of what we’re covering and how to get there, I still kind of draw a blank at some questions, but they’re getting fewer and farther between and today I quizzed myself on a Greene’s Theorem question and got the same answer three different ways 😁🤓, plus there is still time between now and then as well as time on those days to prepare, so hopefully it will be fine), and then it was Saturday shower time. 😉

Not too much else going on for the rest of the day. Wenche made us steaks and tater tots and salad for dinner and we watched a movie: Spy that was pretty funny. I played some WombPlay (still one more day until the new Dungeon Master season starts, not sure why I care that much, five cents for a month is kind of stupid, but I do have a couple new NFTs, so hopefully it will be better this time), and a little Splinterlands, but I was actually interested in the movie and put the phone down.

I was starting to doze off a little, but I realized I still had several thousand steps left for the day, so I got up and did some marching in front of the TV to finish them out and keep the streak alive. 💪

Wenche gave me the remote, but I figured I was already starting to get tired, so I let her put her vampire drama back on and was out before long.

Positive income and no crime or crises in dShitty? Alrighty, then, I’ll take it. 👍

Did a lesson today on Rising Star and got my Ego back to zero, so once again we slog missions; at least the lessons seem to be buying me more time than they were before with the additional guitar card.

Wow, I don’t know how long it’s been now that HashKings has been sitting there idle. 🤬 Needless to say, I didn’t take care of it today. I think I’m probably past sees death at this point. I hope that doesn’t mean I lost the harvest altogether. 😕

Huh, I thought I played more Splinterlands than I actually did…guess once I got to the next tier I put it down and forgot about it. Oh, yeah, we were watching a movie.

I did at least get to the next tier of Silver, but it still sucks having crippled monsters. 😡

Fourteen DEC? That’s a joke, right? No? Oh. 🤬

Claimed my SPS interest for the day and decided to stake it up this time, not going to compound any quicker if I continuously siphon off. It has been helpful, though, to build back a little more liquid the past week or so.

Still not done anything with the vouchers in game or left on the market. I guess it’s node operators getting paid solely in vouchers (which makes no sense, should be SPS, but whatever) that’s keeping the price suppressed. I think they’re planning to transition at some point, but that’s probably soon™️ (like Lands soon).
