What I will be doing on 1 October 2020

Tomorrow, is #HivePUD day. Realistically, I am probably going to be in a weird space and both that day and then next - and away from my keyboard. Possibly having to do advanced prep for the market and making koeksisters.

What is Hive Power Up Day?

This is from @traciyork's announcement post where you'll also find details of the prizes for participating:

Hive Power Up Day has been taking place on the first day of every month since it's inception on that other blockchain over a year ago. There's a great old post from @sndbox that explains all the reasons you personally benefit from powering up. For the community as a whole, it's a great way to show support for our blockchain home by staking (aka powering up) Hive and adding to its value. And as @streetstyle has always said...
On the first day of the month...

• ...we ask that everyone who can do so, power up any amount of HIVE they are holding on the first of the month.

• ... we ask accounts that are currently powering down to please pause the powerdown during the hours of the first of the month.

• ... we ask that those who are trading and/or selling Hive, not to do so during the hours of the first of the month (and if possible, cancel any type of sell order on any exchanges for the same hours).

Oh, and be sure to visit @hivebuzz's post about Power Up Day Helpers. Helpers and accounts that power up, all stand to get badges at different levels, explained, in numbers Hive's own mathetician, @nickyhavey, here.

So, back to why I'll not be around much tomorrow:

When I started writing this, it was all a little iffy, but it's now confirmed: The Husband will be under the knife tomorrow. For two, possibly three, procedures. Because we've not heard about the last, we're choosing to believe that no news is good news.

When he does something, he does it properly, The Husband.

I am telling myself, believing and telling myself that it will be fine and that he will make a full and quick recovery.

After all, as the doc observed the other day, he does heal well.

So, while I shall be around, I am likely to be a trifle distracted and sitting down and writing a power post may just be beyond me.

It will be a 4 - 4.30 am start, so I'm thinking, and as I said, that I should take to the kitchen. As I will probably get to fetch The Husband some time on Friday - kitchen day - and it's a two hour round trip without the admin/hospital things in between - it's a sensible and productive way to use my brain time.

Oh, and don't forget to power up!

See you on the other side...

Until next time, be well

My October 1 too should be fun. It's a free day for me so I've decided to catch up with the bitcoin course I was taking on Nowacademy. When it is evening, I'm probably going to finish "The last of us" game I'm currently playing. LOL
