Doctor UplandDood's prescription - Take 2 and call me in the morning. **1 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Hahahaha.**..Hehehehe...Bwahahaah...** It has been said that **Laughter is the best prescription**. Do you agree? My dad and I used to subscribe to a monthly magazine called **Readers Digest**. Have you heard of it? If you have not, I highly recommend that you borrow from someone who has a subscription or read some at your nearest…

My attempt at something resembling a poem or maybe even a song. #My Cash Song ReadCash for Breakfast completed by an aromatic cup of NoiseCash. ReadCash for Lunch accompanied by a mouth-watering dessert of NoiseCash. ReadCash for Afternoon tea with a delicious dip of NoiseCash. ReadCash for Dinner washed down with a glass of NoiseCash. Come on, Supper has got to be a nightcap of NoiseCash. Then off to dream about ReadCash and NoiseCash. Morning, Cash! Afternoon, Cash!…

@Just1dood

Thank you @Emily2u for spotting the typos in my latest article - "Doctor UplandDood's prescription - Take 2 and call me in the morning." She said I'd eatien the "Ts". Lol. Indeed, I have. Seven were missing! Thank you!

@Just1dood

Thank you @AmazingWorld for your sponsorship. I'm very honored and grateful. I'll do my best to put out the best articles. Thank you.

@Just1dood

When I grow up, what will I be? **2 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** **A song to start** There is an old song that starts like this... *When I was just a little girl* *I asked my mother, what will I be* Childhood should be a wonderful time. Aside from studying and helping with some household chores, it is mostly carefree life. Depending on age group, in the morning after waking up - play. In the afternoon after lunch - play. For those in…

@Just1dood

Will you risk your life for a job? **3 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Everyone gets one This is a fact of life. We go through school so that one day we will get a job. This is true for those who want to run their own business too. You still work a job. The only difference is that you don't work for somebody else. You work for yourself. Given a choice, we probably don't want to work. But work we do because from it we derive our livelihood.…

@Just1dood

A superduper big thank you to @Eylz2021 for increasing her sponsorship. I'd like to say that she's my very first sponsor and someone who's gotten me very excited in writing here. I'll do my best to be consistent in my writing and get better at it. Thank you!

My neighbor - The 3 Witches **5 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** *Yesterday was a Sunday so I took a break from posting here. However, this article was actually written on 2 July 2021 but was unpolished. I haven't found time to polish it yet.* *Today was a crazy busy day. I could have sworn the day was running on fast forward. It's now just a couple of hours short of going into Tuesday that I have finally found the time to sit down and polish…

@Just1dood

Read this if it's your 2nd attempt (or you're new) at ReadCash **6 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Time flies when you're having fun(ds) I once saw a cartoon character **Grimm** from the comic strip **Mother Goose & Grimm** on top of a dumpster filled with trash and a circling fly. In the blink of an eye, **"chomped"**, the fly is gone and a caption on top of Grimm's head says "***Time's fun when you're having flies!***" I can't explain how…

@Just1dood

A big hearty thank you to @emily2u for being my newest sponsor. Thank you very much. Your writing has been an inspiration and your sponsorship has definitely upped the game for me. Another reason I need to be consistent in my writing venture. Ganbatte!

@Just1dood

Never underestimate The Puppy Law **7 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Our days are full of surprises. Sometimes it's by choice, other times it's put on your laps. If you're not careful, an innocent outing could end up coming home with an additional mouth. If you're not sure what I'm talking about, at least heed my warning...never underestimate the power of the **Puppy Law**. The Puppy Law Because of this Puppy Law, we ended up getting…

@Just1dood

A super-duper gratitude and big shout out to my two newest sponsors: @immarryandmerry and @ARTicLee. I'm super-duper motivated to do better and bring your greater joy in reading my articles. Thank you for your believe in me.

@Just1dood

Are you a good steward of your bank? **8 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Passive Income One of the hottest topics that have been around for a while is the fascination and pursuit of the illusive Passive Income. What is Passive Income? Investopedia summarizes it as follows: Passive income is earnings derived from a rental property, limited partnership, or other enterprise in which a person is not actively involved. Self-Run Bank Whether we…

@Just1dood

Is the love of your life blinding you? **9 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** My recent increase in online presence due to more writing, reading, and chatting has gotten me to think about what I'm about to share with you. If you spend a lot of time online, I highly suggest that you read this. You can't fight Advancement If you have not been hiding in a cave over the last decade or so, one thing you'd have noticed is the incredible speed at…

@Just1dood

Help....how does anyone clear 104 notifications? Any idea? That's quite a monumental task. I shall attempt to do that today. Wish me luck! Hopefully, by doing so I get to visit read many of your articles today. See you soon!

@Just1dood

Distance makes the heart grow fonder **10 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Are you on many different writing platforms? If you are, maybe you can help me answer this. As I progress in ReadCash and getting more involved in writing here and engaging in the community, I find that it is quite a unique platform. The writer's engagement level with each other is high. When you do a deep dive into the comments section, these are not shallow comments…

@Just1dood

Hi all! Today is Sunday! Yeah, as if you needed me to tell you that. LOL. What it means is that I will not be posting any articles today. Ahem...I see some giving out a sigh of relief. Be nice. Hahahaha...Enjoy your Sunday. Will post tomorrow.

@Just1dood

[Just posted on @uplanddood's noise.cash] 99 notifications on the bell, 99 notifications, Take one down and pass it around, 98 notifications on the bell. 98 notifications on the bell, 98 notifications, Take one down and pass it around, 97 notifications on the bell. I'm singing to this tune - https://youtu.be/Tudxz7IGWfg while I clear my Read.Cash notifications.

@Just1dood

I've been clearing the notification bell so fast I think I might have broken it. Some cleared notifications are reappearing! Help!

@Just1dood

Something I'd never shared anywhere before and hopefully will bring you a smile on a Monday: Before I started writing here and in another writing platform, I've written quite a few many short blogs, specializing in the topic "Loren Ipsum". For your benefit, it goes like this... "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut…

@Just1dood

How to tackle the tide of Read.Cash notifications **12 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** This had started out as a short post asking other readers "How Does One Clear 104 Notifications" short post. https://read.cash/c/open-for-all-cc80/post-695e8595 I promise you this won't be a long article. There will only a few points that I've learned as I started clearing these notifications. I believe many who's been here long will go through this same…

@Just1dood

Thank you @ARTicLee for our sponsorship contritbuion I'm grateful and your continued sponsorship makes me look forward to Mondays! Lol. Thank you, my friend.

@Just1dood

Are you Self-Sabotaging? Let's find out - Connecting the Dots. **13 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Did you know that we have a time bomb inside each of us? The moment we are born, it starts ticking. No one knows when the time is up. It is morbid but that's the truth. Either we can focus on this ticking time bomb or we can focus on the time at hand. If you don't believe in salvation through the **Lord Jesus Christ**, and the prospect of an…

@Just1dood

Having just posted an article for today "Are you self-sabotaging? Let's find out - Connecting the dots", my mind wanders. And in it's wandering, I thought of another topic. And for this topic, I'd just put about 4 bones. Keeping it in the closet for later addition of meat. Meanwhile, I've been challenged to do the "I Never" series. Been tagged twice. I'm getting the feeling like it's one of those Tag-Wrestling. Once tagged, can't stay behind the robes. Have to climb over and…

@Just1dood

Never say Never. I've been Tagged! **14 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** First Tag This is the first time in my life that I've tagged so many times. Reminded me of the Tag-Team wrestling I used to watch when I was a kid. I recall that once a team member tags you, you have to get into the ring. The first tag came from @Emily2U's post "TEN Random "Never Have I Ever Questions".…

@Just1dood

Thank you @snapping.turtle for your sponsorship! I'm humbled and honored in your believe in me. I shall continue to post more nonsense. LOL.

@Just1dood

How to use QR code to tip in Noise.Cash A Pleasant Surprise **15 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** [*NOTE: My profile link at Noise.Cash -* *https://noise.cash/u/UplandDood*] Yesterday, I noticed a different message when I clicked to check on my Noise.Cash notifications. There was an unfamiliar "**Challenge Message**" from an unknown sender. It sounded too good to be true. I took the risk and clicked on the message. Nothing happens. The next…

@Just1dood

An introvert in an extrovert's clothing **16 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** An interesting thought, don't you think? Though not ridiculous. Humans are highly adaptable. I find that to be true from my personal experience. Having said, that I'm now confused as to which I fall under. You see, I have this theory that there are two types of people in this world. Simply said, those who categorize people into two types of people in this world and…

@Just1dood

Earth calling @Emily2u. The Rather article is done. Not sure how I'm gonna add images though. The questions were so bad. Anyway, it's coming out on Monday.

@Just1dood

Sunday is for rest & some nonsense **17 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** TLDR " ..." That's right. Move along. Nothing worth reading here. Skip if you're busy. But if you have plenty of time to kill, proceed at your own risk. Hahahaha... [*Note: I'd written this post last Sunday (11 July 2021). I do not post on Sundays but will write if inspired.*] The day had started late and I wasn't about to rush it. Though I have made it a point to clear…

@Just1dood

Found out that there are self professed article police on this platform. How interesting.

@Just1dood

I'd rather not rather - The only time this title works is with this article. **19 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Bzzzt - You're Tagged! If the tags in read.cash were electrified, I'd be Electroman by now. I've been tagged so much in the last few days that I will be able to shoot electricity out of my fingers. Maybe toes too. The latest such tag was from @emily2u. If you've read my article, "Never say Never. I've been tagged", you'll know…

@Just1dood

Jabbed: It was like going through a dairy farm (I think) **20 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** To get the Jab When I started writing this two days ago, it's exactly 24 hours since I started queueing up for my first Covid-19 vaccination jab. Before I go into the actual experience, let me give a little background on how it's handled in our country. There is a government "endorsed" app that we need to download to track our movement and records a…

@Just1dood

It's Tuesday afternoon. I've managed to read some articles, gave some comments and also done some noise.cash posts. Normally, I'll continue to write an article to keep for rainy days. I now have 4 - 5 semi and fully completed articles saved. However, today my motivation just wasn't there. I am not inspired. Have nothing that jumped out shouting, "Write me, write me". I think I'll take a break and go play over at noise.cash today. See you there! Please remember to say, "hi".…

@Just1dood

Network = Net worth **21 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** I don't know if this is an UplandDood original equation or not but I've been thinking about this lately. It's actually been on my mind ever since I started my working life, eons ago and now seems like in a galaxy far, far away (if you follow my writings, you'll notice that I like to use this phrase. One reason could be that it was imprinted on my mind during my formative years. Anyway,…

@Just1dood

Readers are Leaders **22 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Have you heard of this phrase before? What do you think? Do you think it is a true reflection? Are you a reader? If you are, are you a leader? Maybe for some, it is a little difficult to answer. I mean it's easy to answer if you are a reader or not. If you read and like to read, then you are a reader. But a leader? For that, you may need to define what a leader is. The…

@Just1dood

Thank you @bloghound, my rhyme professor. Thank you for your sponsorship & topping up the amount. I'm sweating now...bloghound on the prowl. Tell me how, not to kow-tow! I'll do better with my rhymes, I promise. LOL.

@Just1dood

Beauty is in the eye of the Beholder & Tips on how to be happy for the rest of your life **18 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** There was a time not too far back in time where everything goes. There's no such thing as being politically correct or being under the microscope for writing or saying or singing something that may not necessarily be acceptable to the general public. I mean, yes, there are certain acceptable norms as practiced at that…

@Just1dood

Rhymes eat time; I eat Pizza **24 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** I'm not used to writing my daily articles in the evening. Today was an interesting day. (*Fyi, this was written on the evening of 22nd July 2021 with some amendments right now before posting*). Woke up early. Well, early compared to later. Later, means waking up without an alarm clock. Yes, I know early is relative but I'm too embarrassed to tell you the time. LOL! Regardless,…

@Just1dood

Success is overrated **26 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** What is Success? If the **Oxford Language** definition is to be believed, success is simply "***the accomplishment of an aim or purpose***." When I wake up in the morning - I've accomplished my intent to wake up in the morning (by God's grace): That's a success. Grooming is important to me - I brush my teeth, wash my face, put on a clean set of clothes - I've accomplished my aim to be…

@Just1dood

Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting @Pichi28, my newest sponsor! Thank you very much Pichi. Sponsorships like yours make my burning out so much more bearable. LOL. I'd just finished an article with no title talking about that. Thank you, you inspire me to be better and write more goofy stuff. Cheers and have a pizza!

@Just1dood

I'd like to express my gratitude to a very talented ReadCash writer and photographer @ARTicLEE for his sponsorship. I'm truly humbled and now more than ever to write more nonsense. Hopefully I won't end up being banned. 😂 Thank you, my friend. You inspire me. I need to pick up my camera more often now besides writing.

@Just1dood

A Blank Paper: Making sense of Block, Stock, Balk, Wok, Bedrock & Chalk **27 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** A Writer's Block People say it is a good thing to start with a clean slate. As I'm sitting here staring at a blank screen, it is hard to imagine how that can be a good thing. Not only am I presented with a blank screen but I'm also equipped with lots of invincible ink! Would I consider this writer's block? Not really. Come to think of…

@Just1dood

I just got back from a short break. I'll post about that in noisecash shortly. I wanna quickly thank @Bloghound, the Queen or Rhymes...the Lady of Live Raps for upping her sponsorship. Thank you very much. I'm very humbled. I'm now super inspired. I shall continue to spew out more bad rhymes and raps. LOL.

@Just1dood

An article with no title (feat. Four Stress Management tips) **28 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Through mud & snow This last weekend was an interesting one. I feel lethargic. Demotivated. Felt like dragging my feet through mud or knee-high snow. Just downright ... ugh feeling. I almost couldn't write anything, especially on Sunday. Sunday is a day I don't do any posting but still aim to write. The articles that I write on Sundays go into…

@Just1dood

Woke up to a day brightening surprise! Thank you @Eylz2021 for upping your sponsorship! I'm honored. Humbled. Inspired, Encouraged. I look into my ReadCash crystal ball - I see...ummm...errrr..oooo...more nonsense to come! LOL!

@Just1dood

Wrong Auto-Pilot **July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** There is a danger in doing things that you have been doing enough times that it has become an auto-pilot activity. If you have two activities that are quite similar, your brain can't differentiate between these two similar events if you let it run on auto-pilot. Let me elaborate. This morning, I have woken up earlier. I guess my mind is still a bit 'blurry' as I went about doing my normal…

@Just1dood

Don't be dusty, trusty Rusty; Random Rewarder, All's in Order (Why I think he visited me) **30 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Don't be Dusty It's been 9 months! I was beginning to wonder if Rusty will ever visit me again. Yes, 9 months since I last welcomed Rusty. That was during my first endeavor into writing at ReadCash. He visited me at "Sending Cryptocurrencies – Take Heed of These 2 Warnings!" and "My Peculiar taste in…

@Just1dood

Thank you @AmazingWorld for your sponsorship! I'm dead tired today but that sure caught my attention! Lol. Thank you, thank you.

@Just1dood

Plagiarism. What's that? Can it be eaten? (A Farcical Look) **31 July 2021, Somewhere in the Metaverse - UplandDood (@Just1Dood)** Start on the right footing (or rather heading) This is purely my point of view. No research was done for this article so it all comes from my puny little brain. I'll jump right into it. Yup, testing the depth of the river with both feet. We'll start with the Title. The Title or my heading is my way of saying, in order to avoid being accused of…

@Just1dood

Thank you @immaryandmerry for your sponsorship. Like Emily, I don't know how to see if it's increase and/or extension, etc. Lol. You've been an inspiration and enjoyed chatting with you on noisecash too!
