I Need Some Time

Hello all, how are you? It was my son's birthday two days ago. He had a great time and we did as well. I did have some little issues with my eyes so I have limited my screen time. Nothing serious they were just tired and I needed to relax them. A good thing I have done is spend some time getting to know a few new subscribers. I have also spent some time looking at the new Noise App platform.

Son's choice for dinner

Well as the title says I need some time. What am I talking about? Ok I am having a rough time setting time aside to write right now. So rather than put the time into a certain topic I'm going to just write about what's going on and what's in my head.

Article I Erased

I had an article I was writing and decided I didn't like my insights and information. I was close to the 3 minute mark. I was busy today at work and jumped on here when I had a few minutes here and there. So the 3 minutes took me 8 hours. It's hard to write when you stop and go. I have done that a lot on a lot of my articles. I don't know if you as readers can tell. I will tell you it's nice when I have a block of time set aside. Really we should write when we're comfortable and have time.

Frustration

I can't tell you how frustrating it is to only see partially out of one eye. My vision has gotten better but when you can't see perfectly many tasks can be difficult. Like simple task like putting the lid on a bottle, putting a shirt on a hanger, reading small font, closing your one eye all the time, not being able to see things coming clearly from your left and many other things. I'm seeing about 50% of my vision view. Monday will be three weeks since surgery.

Last Friday (I think) I signed up for Coinbase to buy some BCH. Actually I was going to write an Article just on this but now I just want to share my frustration already with it My goal was to transfer some BCH to read dot cash wallet. It was a gruesome process they wanted all my personal information, pictures of identification, and even a selfie. I was nearly close to giving up because the site just kept having error after error. I tried to register a credit card and it would come back saying my card number and expiration date is invalid. This was the furthest I got on day 1.

The next day I tried credit card again several times same thing. I got fed up and decided to do a deposit via bank transfer. This was difficult as well, site kept saying wrong account number or routing number. Maybe after 5 or 6 times it finally took. Once that was completed I was able to purchase some cryptocurrency. This process was easy but I made a mistake I bought BTC πŸ˜‚. Fornately I was able to convert it easily back over to BCH. Ok all done right just need to send to wallet. Nope message comes across please wait for your bank transfers to complete.

Alright my thoughts were ok it's Saturday bank won't be open until Tuesday because Monday is a holiday here. I don't know why I thought to try again but I went back to try to add my credit card again. I typed everything in and it took. Bought some more BCH. I went to send and this time it told me you have exceeded your $0 limit please increase limit. I navigated around Bitcoin some and found where you can increase limit. I click it and it says your limit increase has been sent. I was like what? I didn't even put an amount in or anything. Here is the screen shot showing my deposit limits per day after it was increased:

Nothing changed the next few days. Alright it's Tuesday now, I go to my online banking account and I have two charges from Coinbase that both cleared. Alright I should be able to send now right? I first try to do the amount that came from my bank transfer. Well it still says wait for bank transfer to complete. I try the amount with credit card and finally it sends. I guess a simple win I guess.

Today is Saturday and I still can't send the funds I deposited with my bank transfer. I'm going crazy and I'm thinking about the one thing I seen on Coinbase the very first day when you had to select which form to use to deposit. It said bank transfer is highly recommend. Umm πŸ€” really? It's been a whole week now. Only thing I can send is the amount that I have made off the deposit sitting in my account.

Final Thoughts

Well I have many other things going on. I didn't touch on all of them. One last thing is setting up for my son's birthday party with friends. It was suppose to be Friday but he wanted to change it to today. He has 10 friends coming over. I had to get food, drinks, and snacks from the store. I also had to clean and rearrange the house a bit to make room for these temporary guests. Anyone want to come over and help? Haha.

I have been overwhelmed this week and haven't had much time to write. It finally caught up with me as this will be my first article since Thursday. I can't promise when I will write again. I'll just take some more time to get things squared away.

Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate you my friends. I have many articles to read and have to do some Noise. I think for the next few days I will just be a reader. I'll reply to my comments as well.Take care and enjoy your weekend!!

Hope you can see well soon, it must be really uncomfortable... about Noise.app , is it ok? I'm thinking about it but not sure, I don't want to lose my time, and these days I'm pretty busy with other issues of my real life so I can realize that I don't have time for being in any platform! So frustrating too... I need also some time.

It's ok it has a lot of cool features. Still a lot to come yet. It has kind of side tracked me though. Trying to build a following all over again while trying to keep up with the current platform. I really only have time for one. The FT hasn't been activated yet. Apparently it's going to be more content focused. Yes we all need time a lot of us have families and other priorities. This week should be slower for me maybe I will get back on track a bit.

Coinbase is actually faulty you can try other wallets that supports usd like binnace, you buy some Bitcoin on cash app and swap on cctip it is quite easy to use.

Coinbase wallet has many problems, you can use Binance or Bitcoin Com. Wallet that is helpful and decentralized one.

Our comfort in writing holds utmost importance, as without it we wouldn't be able to write something good. Happy birthday to your son, and will wait to see the pictures from the party.

I also have lots of draft articles here, some of them are already 3 minutes of read but I also don't like my word's and so I didn't tried publishing them. Writing also takes a lot of time to me, that is why sometimes I feel asleep while editing πŸ˜‚. Writing is not easy since day one for me but I still love writing. Anyway I wish your coinbase will be okay and your eye will get better so it won't be hard for you to write an article.

Thank you. I really don't know how I have been able to push out what I have the last few weeks. Coinbase I thought would be easy, maybe it's the initial hardships and will be more functional once I get through the first few sends.

Also happened a few time with me and took lots of time completing an article, happens sometimes.... Even a few days ago I wrote an article, however I only clicked save instead published. An one and half hour or may be two when I check it back (after reading others articles) and, I saw no new views, suddenly I saw there Not yet published.... I smiled and the published...

I hope the bank related issue will be resolved soon and you won't have to lose the transferred amount.... Right?

I suggest writing on a piece of paper the seed and derivation path to your read.cash wallet. The wallet of read.cash is non-custodial. If you clean your browser you might lose your money without access to the phrase.

Thanks I have it saved and have it printed out in a safe place. One day I may find an easier way to operate. Thanks for your help initially btw
