This month has been really good, and I am happy to be back writing again.
One thing I noticed is that it doesn't feel like a month already, but I guess that's a side effect of writing every day. I always found that I remembered things much better, because I am physically putting days or events into words after the fact, and sometimes during.
Last Month
I powered up my account to over 20k Hive, which is some of the earnings I made through some successful trades during (The Bull Market), if it can be called that.
Through earnings, I have raised my stake to 22,324HP
There was about $40 in HBD sitting in savings, so I decided to convert that into Hive and stake it, which brings me up to somewhere in the range of 23,400HP, so I am only halfway to Orca, which will be really cool.
During my time away from writing, I felt a bit strange when I came back here sporadically because I felt deflated, as my account at the time was kind of empty.
I am feeling much better since powering up, so I'm going to continue to do so during each HPUD, and when money gets straightened out, I will be putting some in here and there to bring myself up to my Orca goal.

Here We Go

My New Stake
By next month's HPUD, I would like to be above 25k, and depending on how much money I have available, I could potentially get well above that.
I know there has been some stress recently on Hive, and I have felt it myself, but yesterday I was thinking about it, and I genuinely believe things are going to be okay.
My rationale is that too many people have built too much to just give up, and too many have too much to lose by letting Hive die.
Yes, we hit all-time lows, which is scary, but I figured it is a good price to buy at and build up a stake.
I wish I had more disposable income, though, because I think I will be kicking myself in the future when looking back at this period.
