"Saturday na? I thought it's still Wednesday," the Farmboy scratching his head after I told him that the pack of loaf bread he bought the other day was expiring tomorrow, the 28th. I always remind him to check the date because he often buys bread nearing the expiry, which means it has been on the shelves for days. But for some reason, he seems to forget every time.

With him thinking today was a Wednesday, he may have calculated we still have 3 days to consume the pack before it expires, lol! It wasn't the first time and I'm used to it that I don't say anything, or at times, tease him for a laugh. "Or did you buy it because you want to give it to the neighbor's cat?" I asked. "Ha ha ha, probably!" he teased back. We just laughed of course. At one time, his grocery bag included a pack of bread already growing molds. "Yikes! Did you pick this up with your eyes closed?" I tossed the pack to him. He was surprised to see he bought a *trash.* "Well, even the cashier didn't notice it," his lame excuse😂 We can't even give it to *the cat.* Anyway, that was just a *preview* of what our conversations in the house are like at times. We can't always be serious... But yes, it's Saturday and while I think about what to make of the bread, let me share how my week on the blockchain was in terms of numbers, although the title gave it away already. ## Yep! 19k Staked HIVE I shared [turning 3](https://inleo.io/@ifarmgirl/turned-3-on-bitcoin-halving-day) on Hive a week ago. Oh, just how fast time goes but I'm glad to be here at this stage in life. Hiving has become sort of my *retirement* hobby. Oops, I digressed. But yes, my total Staked HIVE ([Hive Power](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-hive-power-hp)) is now 19,000.

It was 18,808 last week, which means an increase of 192 HP in 7 days. I manually powered up 20 [HIVE](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-usdhive) so all the others (172 HP) are [curation](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-curation-content) and content rewards. It's growing nicely, yay! ## Staked LEO Meanwhile, my Leo Power moved a bit. I skipped the daily [staking](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-staking) so only 35 LEO were added. I'm kinda on a budget.😅 - *Current LP: 29,640* - *Previous Wk: 29,605* I want to keep at least 1k liquid [LEO](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-leo) in my wallet for use on [Leodex](https://leodex.io?ref=inleo.io) or add [liquidity](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-liquidity) in the LEO/Swap.HIVE in the Diesel Pool. Yet to make up my mind about it. Things could change so we will see. One thing is sure though, I love that we now have an [off-chain DEX](https://leodex.io?ref=inleo.io) for our onramp/offramp needs. It's new but I believe Khal's team is working tirelessly to keep it bug-free. ## [HBD Savings](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/hbd-savings-the-standard-for-other-investments) - *Current: 874* - *Previous Wk: 847* I had to check the numbers while writing this because it seemed unreal, lol! The last 2 digits just changed places.😅 27 [HBD](https://inleo.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-hive-backed-dollar-hbd) was added. At the current price, I should not be putting HBD into savings and buy HIVE instead. But I'm keeping some liquid HBD for that purpose and bought some HIVE. I can't time the market so purchasing at different times and in small quantities is my bet. Someone said one should not be buying and staking coins or tokens during the bull season. A good advice, yet here we are still adding to our stakes. I think it depends on one's short-term and long-term plans. It makes sense though, to not stake everything. I wish you a fantastic weekend, everyone!
