Yep, the most stressful season for me is here. Guess there's no way around it, so I will just need to face it again. π Counting down to the end of 2025 though. This year has been pretty tough for me. π I honestly don't know what to expect for the coming year, so I won't even try. No expectations. Just take it as it comes. Best to remind myself on this mindset as each day passes. What's important is I do the best that I can each time. πβ€οΈπ‘
Flowers in the garden always make me smile. Happy to see my lantana plant showing off its blooms. There are some more stems with flowers but there's no way to take all their photos without a drone. They're all facing the street. π
Saturday steps were pretty good, but still not yet there. I'm still trying to figure out how to hit 5K daily without feeling too strained esp. with my movement. My daughter's been sharing some IG videos with me on exercises to relieve of pain from sciatica. I will do my best in following most of them. Like I told my daughter, the exercises are not as easy as one thinks as it's painful to try them out. Thankfully I do have a bit of high tolerance for pain so I guess I can somehow endure a bit of pain. π« #wishmeluck
Prompt A Day : QUOTE

It's good to be thankful always. These days I try and focus on the blessings I have in life. Sure, my life isn't perfect, and there are lots of things I still dream of experiencing. I can't, however, overlook the fact that I still have lots to be grateful for in life. Focusing on what I don't have would not improve my conditions. I'd rather focus on solutions than issues or problems. I remember what my late dad used to say, "That is a problem all right, it's a problem with a solution." To honor his memory, I try and live by his advice. πβ€οΈπ‘ Honestly, this year brought me the biggest challenges. I will be glad when the year is over. Work, however, isn't done as I still need to learn my lessons and learn them well, so I would not encounter the same issues in the future. This is the part where I ask the universe for guidance so I will be mindful of the steps that I take as I move forward to better days.
Hive Goals
Here are the updated figures for the week:
Hive Power: 15200.217 --> 15225.512
HBD Savings: 202.733 --> same
Alive Power: 80.006 (liquid) ; staked 49.3K; 23K delegated --> 66.47 (liquid) ; staked 49.4K; 23K delegated
STARBITS: 2575193 --> 29225193
LEN:LENM = 96.036 --> 96.652
ALIVE:ALIVEM = 899.463 --> 903.497
ALIVE:SWAP.HIVE = 52.008 --> 60.098
All righty, most of my tracked figures have increased. I have to wait a few more hours to be able to claim my HBD interest. My HP goal is 16K for now, and it's good to see growth even when it's pretty small. π
HBD target is 300 for now. I also wish to keep growing my ALIVE tokens. One task at a time.. one day at a time..
See you next week for more tracking data π
I wish everyone a fantastic December. I know we're all counting down now. Me, not so much for Christmas but more so for the New Year. π I used to welcome each new year with a lot of enthusiasm and energy. Not so this time around. You do know it would be my third year of celebrating the holidays alone (but with the kitties and the guinea pigs). Like I mentioned above, I focus not on what I do not have, but on cherishing each moment as it comes. π That has been my best mindset for now.
I took a screenshot of my activities on TAB. That's from another month end (yesterday). Here's to more in the coming days.. below are the affiliate sites I work on daily
All righty, the first day of the month is over for me now. Five more work days coming. I really wish everyone a lovely month ahead. Nighty night from Manila. Ta-tah! π
