I live barefooted and naked, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i. I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
The day before yesterday and yesterday I moved several steps closer to my goal of attaining dolphin 🐬 level by December 1st, thanks to the rise in DOGE fiat values. The day before yesterday I sold my 3,732.7894 DOGE on BitForex for 281.72 USDT, and yesterday I used that to buy 4.0741 LTC, which I then sent to a SWAP.LTC address on Hive Engine on my second account, @tydyn.rain (to keep the assets separate from my main account for the moment, to more easily track them). After transaction fees I received 4.03850731 SWAP.LTC, which I then sold when LTC's price went up nicely last night for 787.9409142 SWAP.HIVE, which was pretty sweet. I'm also happy to finally have all my assets on Hive now!
So now I'm just waiting on the HIVE value of my 8,685.53645290 SWAP.DOGE on Hive Engine (which is also being managed on my @tydyn.rain account) to rise past a certain threshold (0.0255), then I'll finally sell it, hopefully netting me 2,214.811795 SWAP.HIVE, which would give me a total of 3,002.7527092 SWAP.HIVE, which added to the almost 20 HIVE that I already have allocated for the December 1st #HPUD, would give me a grand total of around 3,020 HIVE that I'll hopefully have to power up on that special day. I'm so close! After that giant #HPUD power up, I should have approximately 6,100 HP! Holy jumping fuckmuffins!
Even if I have to sell my SWAP.DOGE for a little less, I'd still have quite enough to reach dolphin level, which is a pretty nice feeling! So getting to dolphin level by December 1st is all but guaranteed, as long as I'm able to successfully meet one more challenge...
The next challange after I finally sell my SWAP.DOGE is to swap my 3,020ish SWAP.HIVE for HIVE without losing anything to transaction fees. If I time it right on uswap.app, when a large amount on the SWAP.HIVE side of the bridge is needed, then I'll not only be able to swap it for free, but I would also likely get a bonus. That's my hope. I just have to watch closely for when a lot more SWAP.HIVE is required on that bridge. I really wish that there were a quick, easy, and consistent way to swap between HIVE and SWAP.HIVE, and visa-versa, without fees, as for large amounts, the fees are felt quite a lot!
These assets that I'm using to do my massive power up mostly came from posting on another sovereignty-driven blockchain, Bastyon, where I was very active before coming to Hive. Some PKOIN were also earned by putting my holdings for two rounds on a community node, which earned me a good bit too. I've been thinking that perhaps I should begin posting there again, maybe promotion my Hive posts, like I do on X. It's still amazing to me that I was actually able to make so much in the time I was there! I have a great deal of respect for Bastyon, and all the sovereignty-driven blockchains, Hive of course being one of them, along with Qortal, Koinos, and Holochain, of those which I'm presently aware.
My impending leap solidly into dolphin level will launch the next stage of my time on Hive, as once I'm past 6,000 HP I know that I'll get into the double digits quite soon after that, with orca level in my sights as my new short-term goal. Yes, I definitely seem to thrive on Hive, and the more I thrive, the more everyone around me will thrive too!
I've been able to get fully caught up on my Hive notifications every day for a week now, which gives me a large feeling of relief. I still need to find a way to wrap things up earlier in the afternoon so that I have more time for land work, and well, pretty much anything else in my life aside from Hive. More balance is needed for sure, but I'll just keep doing my best, both on Hive, and in my life.
I left the Flow House yesterday later than I had intended again, at 4PM, taking a short time to take a few more photos for this post, before putting my focus on land work. My two tasks yesterday were doing another round of paid bamboo propagation in Ano's nursery, and using my machete to collect a wheelbarrow full of Cecropia leaves for the next morning's milking cow food. Again, I didn't do anywhere near as much as I would have liked, but at least some important things were done. I still have to make time to get into my nursery and the fenced garden, as there is so much work needed in both. It's a bit overwhelming, but there's only one of me, and there's a lot that I have to do, so I just do what I'm able each day.
After working I took a shower, strained out and blended kefir with honey (as I didn't have sufficient cinnamon for my usual kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend), got food supplies from Tutu's, made food for myself, got food for my kitten friend, then I headed back to the Flow House for my evening round of Hive catch-up and tasks. I also bought LTC on BitForex with the USDT from the DOGE that I sold the day before, then sent that to Hive Engine, as I mentioned above. I was able to get everything fully caught up and done by about 10:30PM, and after a little token management, I promptly went to sleep. I did sleep well, thankfully, waking up just before 4AM, and not being able to sleep again for a bit, I did a little token management, then I focused on doing @benthomaswwd's @heartbeatonhive contest, before going back to sleep until about 8:30AM.
The time is now almost 12:30PM, so it's a great time to end this post, so that I can get to my afternoon round of essential Hive tasks, and maybe a little catching up, before going to work on the land later in the afternoon. I deeply appreciate you all so much! Onward and upward, joyfully together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
