The Big Nothing

There's absolutely nothing going on in my own garden at the moment. All that's left of this year's gardening season is trying to come up with recipes for chayote, yacon, sweet potatoes and Jerusalem Artichoke. That's kinda fun too, but not as fun as the real deal: growing them.

Whereas during other winters, I would be thinking about buying new seeds for next spring, maybe sow some sweet peppers already, there's none of that this winter. There's another back surgery coming up in February or March, so I can forget about next year's garden. I guess I'll have to focus on other things to make sure I don't miss it too much.

So, more than ever, I'm craving to find out what's going on in your gardens, on your balconies, on your farms or in your growing/living rooms.

Welcome to the SteemIt Community Garden Journal Challenge, which encourages you to share your monthly (indoor) garden/balcony updates with your fellow Steemians and create your own garden journal.

With regret I will miss this month to post not because there is nothing in my little garden to show, but because I am on holiday far from home.
Next month it will be winter, plants will go indoors and I will see which ones will be the survivors.

Meanwhile I will be happy to read and see the posts of the other gardeners.

Thanks for the mention @simplymike. At this point in the growing season, the only thing growing are the icicles hanging off of the roof edge.
Good luck with your pending back surgery.

Hi @simplymike, thank you for your presence on marlians.com

This is 'your boy terry' and at this stage, i am turning to each human and steemian as it has become very pertinent to do so. I simply would like your support, presence and love in these very times as i implore you to please consider supporting my kickstarter to setup a 'Macrohard' hub in the Philippines to gather in it 'programmers/entrepreneurs'.

I have grown very ill and i cater to my dad who is with terminal illnesses. All my resources are exhausting and being with my dad now, things are very different; regardless of my state of health, i can't stop working.

If i continue like this however, i may deteriorate beyond repair. I have been ill like this for years already and i am already at the brink.

I need to heal and i need your help.

Lately, i was in Steemfest to discuss all my projects, including 'marlians.com'. I was there with my last ounce of energy.

This was my talk:

At this stage, all my projects (ulogs.org, steemgigs.org, marlians.com, teardrops.network) are set, each model of each one but it is also in these times that my battles have skyrocketed and my health has deteriorated. Among the four aforementioned platforms, which are all linked, three are in early-alpha stage of development and in use.

To be more effective thus, i desire to setup a hub called 'Macrohard' in the Philippines, near my house, to enable me gather 'programmers/enterpreneurs' to hasten the development of each of my projects prior to SMT, allow me to have room for a health-rehabilitation, cater to my dad still and eventually establish a source of sustenance.

With a 'Macrohard hub' set up, we can emanate 'brothers' and together help many others build their noble dreams.

I have written a fundition post explaining my intentions for the hub and i am now coming out heartfeltly to implore you to support my kickstarter, however small.

Fundition allows you to donate using steem, other cryptocurrency or even FIAT. (My direct paypal: [email protected])

The image below shows what i have gathered so far in preparation for the hub set-up:

One major thing i got is the DJI Osmo pocket camera as media-creation will constitute a key element of the hub.

What I Can Do Currently To Give You A Hand In Return?

  • Where you have donated something, feel free to send me an email on '[email protected]' containing your steem username and ask me to help your with something. I may be able to help you in return with something, just tell me what it is openly.
  • I would also like to give you some MARLIANS stake to appreciate you. (See this post). Note that MARLIANS powers the marlians.com steem-tribe currently and stakeholders in MARLIANS will have a starting-stake in the 'TEARDROPS SMT', which powers 'steemgigs.org, ulogs.org and macrohard.pro'.
  • When the hub is set and stable, with its own network of developers and stable core of 'now steemians', i can help you further your cause or help you in the process of building your noble dreams, even for free. In general, our base audience comprising of 'true fans' can be yours too.

Read More

I am your boy Terry, whether bulls or bears. I have explained all my projects in a 70-min read here, just incase you want to read more about the histories and stories constituting 'surpassinggoogle', to gain a detailed understand of what each my projects is about.

Or Get Some Shirts

If you don't want to donate to the kickstarter directly and you would like to buy some apparel instead, i set up a Teespring store, which i will keep filling up with more items. Where you purchase an item, the profit will go towards my kickstarter.

See sample items in the store:


You can also vote the 'steemgigs' witness here.

Join Me In A Party.

In case you would like to speak with me some more, you can join me in a party over drinks, music and dance, let's #partyonachair while discussing matters that you desire , matters that concern the world, steem or you.

See sample parties:


Your Boy Terry

Hice resteems de su publicaciĆ³n, pero por algĆŗn desperfecto, en Steemit, no aparece el resteems en mi pĆ”gina. Tuve que buscar su publicaciĆ³n en las personas que sigo.

I made resteems of your post, but for some fault, in Steemit, the resteems does not appear on my page. I had to look for its publication in the people I follow.
