Today was my first day back in office after our Maui vacation. It was a busy and unproductive day, though I did manage to do a lunch time workout which is always nice.
I also got a really good number of steps as is always the case when I work in Seattle since I park my car quite a bit away from the train station and when I get to Seattle it is also a little bit of a walk, about ten minutes of brisk walking each way.
As you can see from the picture above gas in Seattle area didn't have a chance to react to lower oil prices that came about due to the Iran cease fire. Though when I compare these prices to the prices in Maui they seem cheap.
The cease fire came really unexpectedly as just before that Trump was saying that he is going to obliterate the Iran civilization. Both sides seem to be claiming a victory and there doesn't seem to be a clear agreement. So the war might resume after two weeks...
Bitcoin definitely had a good pump on these news. Not sure it will stay above seventy thousand mark. It seems to be already backing off the highs.
Other crypto coins had even higher pumps than bitcoin, Fartcoin had over ten percent pump earlier and now is down more than ten percent.
While in Hawaii I was eating some really tasty food in the restaurants and even poke from the Napili Market was amazing. For almost a full week I ate just seafood and fruit and only on our last full day I had a burger at the Monkey Pod by Merriman.
Despite eating healthy food and lots of walking and swimming I still gained about four pounds during our vacation, so getting a good number of steps combined with a forty minutes of calisthenics and only one meal today was a good day to start getting back into shape.
Tomorrow is back to the office so should get a good number of steps as well as a weight lifting workout at the free gym in our building. Since they are bringing everyone back to the office there are a lot more people in the gym now.
Since it is a smaller gym it creates challenges with machine availability, I should find a time outside of lunch time to get to the gym. Will try to go maybe early tomorrow.
It is also tax time, so I should finish those this weekend. I am also doing taxes for our son, so that is more stuff to do. Thankfully his taxes are a lot less complicated and are mainly W2 and interest and dividends.
But we are still collecting all of his forms and might make a best estimate and file for an extension for him to make sure we didn't miss anything and to give him time to locate all the forms. He is missing his University of Washington form, which is worth up to two thousand dollars in lifetime learning credit.
Splinterlands has been making a lot of changes recently, there are new cards in the voucher shop and I believe that it is the first time when there are multiple cards available three to be exact.
The season is also more than half way over so the battles are becoming easier and ratings are going up which results in higher SPS earnings. SPS is flirting with all time lows and I recently saw it less than ten percent above all time lows.
This is a great time to accumulate SPS though...
