The beginning of these posts was my My Life Just Hit a Brick Wall at High Velocity, on the Cusp of My 50th Birthday: Mid Life Crisis 101 post. I link that post because I want to give my readers some useful context for what I write in these posts.
Warm greetings all! 🙏 💚
Today is one of those busier Hive days for me. That's really saying something, becuase staying here in Nanawale, with so few other things strongly drawing my attention, I'm on Hive most of the day, every day. That's how I've been able to engage so much that I got on, and have remained, on the @ecency leaderboard. Yes it's a bit out of balance for sure, but I know I won't always have this much time to devote to it so consistently, so while I'm able, I'm investing as much time as I can in Hive, because to me it is an investment.
I've really come to enjoy and look forward to creating my daily #Index4Index posts. Every morning I go on a search for the perfect quote or quotes for the day. Today, I used multiple quotes around one particular. If you'd like to see my latest one that I posted today, you may do so here.
I also posted my entry for Reflection Hunters Contest: Round 85. I've been very consistent for many months with my entries for both the Shadow Hunters Community Contest/Show Me a Shadow and the Reflection Hunters Contest. I also enjoy hunting cool shadows and reflections during the week for my entries.
I seem to continue slowly branching out into more and more areas of Hive, as I get accustomed to easily managing what I'm keeping track of at any particular time. I've been slowing creeping into using ListNerds. I'd use it for a bit, then forget about it for a while, then come back to it again. Now I'm working with it pretty consistently, am now working on building the account, so that I am able to make use of it more effectively.
It's similar with Actifit. I've had the app installed on my phone for months, but never made use it. Today, however, I logged in again, joined the Actifit Discord server, verified my account, and even played around with seeing how it recorded my walks around the property and up and down the private dirt road where I'm staying. Since I make multiple posts per day now, I'd far prefer to integrate any Actifit reports that I do into a post that I already do, like the one you're reading now. I'm not sure exactly how to do that well yet. I'll likely fiddle around and experiment a bit before I start doing any sort of regular Actifit reports. I know @caelum1infernum is looking forward to my reports because I live in very jungly locations very close to Nature here in Lower Puna, and my reports would be rather different compared to most others. No city or suburb stuff here, that is for sure.
I've been playing Rising Star for a few months now, and I'm doing better and better. I've been buying cards that make running missions easier, such as multiple energy boosts and pizza boxes, and and ones that provide good amounts of fans. Even though I avoided it for a long time, I finally logged into Splinterlands for the first time, and began reading up on it, to better understand how to play it. I'm hesitant to get into another game, but these games are also investments, so I'll see if it can be integrated without too much difficulty.
I'm getting very close to 1,000 HP. It's exciting, and definitely gives me a feeling of accomplishment, but in terms of HP, it's an itty-bitty drop in a really big bucket. It's OK. My goal at the moment is to get to Dolphin Level, so somewhere around 5,500 HP. Then on to 55,000 HP, then 550,000 HP, then...you get the idea. I'm all in for the long haul on Hive, so I will get there. 🦸🚀
Aside from walking around a bit in the late afternoon, I brought a potted longon tree up to The Barn, to plant it tomorrow in a nice sunny area. I also planted some mild hot pepper plants (not sure of variety) in the amazing soil of the ganja bed. Most of the pepper plants already had peppers growing. They should do very well there indeed.
OK my dear Hivians, it's time for me to finish this post and wind down for sleep. I hope y'all enjoyed this post, and I wish everyone a really sweet, lovely night! 🙏 💚

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! 😁🙏💚
