Having the ability to operate our home off the grid is a dream of mine too! Since we've moved away from the city we experience quite a bit more power outages (frequency and duration) and my mind just goes

Happy 9th Anniversary @tarazkp and congrats on that impressive writing streak! I really feel like so many people are missing out on Hive. I've tried onboarding quite a few people in my almost ten years

This sounds so ideal! It's nice to gift yourself a morning in real life from time to time. : )

Thank you! We can start collecting the company pension at 55, at a reduced rate. I ran the numbers though and the odds are still in my favor to collect for more years at the reduced rate. I'm going to

Thank you! That was me for a good number of years! Before we moved into this house we lived in a succession of small apartments and a tiny condo. It made it a real challenge to create.

Thanks! Ugh, I despise tax season. I try to keep up on things throughout the year so it isn't a huge burden. I just wish we had some kind of a flat tax or a simpler system but then I suppose the ultra

Thank you! I think this is really going to make a difference.

So glad to hear it! It certainly looks idyllic there. I think you made a very good choice. Thanks, Lizelle, I hope you enjoy the rest of yours as well!

Haha, it was a good one. Kind of a perfect pub joke. : ) I may be able to talk her into trying another episode, if not I'll be like Still Game—I'll have to watch it by myself. Thank you! This room gets

Thank you! It sure does help to have a peaceful space to create. I wish I could share more but will as soon as I can. : ) Lord, the crypto market is so exhausting lately. The regular stock market has been

I'm glad you enjoyed it! It's not often I come across a good joke these days. The kitchen should be all wrapped up next week. It's 98% done, the contractor just needed to order more handles, replacement

Thank you Lizelle! We're trying to go for the mid-century modern look across the house...it reminds me so much of my childhood because a lot of peoples' furnishings were still MSM in the early 70's. I'm

It was so exciting back then because you knew what goes down will eventually go up. A sideways market is infinitely more difficult psychologically. I still have hope.

Thanks!

This below zero weather really wears on you after a few days. Sunshine helps a little, thankfully Minnesota has an abundance of it in the wintertime. My brother is heading to Hawaii in April! I've never

Silvia and Paolo are so talented! I've followed both of them for years. I had no idea about the Hive Store! I'll have to figure out how to utilize that for books and poetry. It reminds me of the old eBay

Thanks, I'm really enjoying it. It's so weird how random connections can lead to opportunities. This particular opportunity cropped up from someone I met at the Tesla Shareholder meeting in November. Regarding

An early happy birthday to you! It's so important to start each new year off with some kind of intention. It's cliche to say but this time moves so swiftly and this life can change so quickly. This is

This is definitely the worst part of winter. If we can get through these next few weeks with our sanity intact then we'll have survived the worst of it. Crypto has just been exhausting lately. You can

It's so expensive to go to the movie theater now in the US. You can could on $30-$50 per person if you want to eat or drink anything. They've priced themselves into oblivion here in America. Thanks and
