Had a longer sleep today thanks to the grandparents being here. Have a mixed day of getting ready for a holiday, BabyRah, a haircut and just maybe I will get chance to write. Oh and of course there is the small matter of the Hungarian Grand Prix
@rah in August 2021
Just calculated my Noise BCH from yesterday and including the $1 SmartBCH I smashed all previous days, Even without the SmartBCH I was wlll up. Let me put it this way if I were to repeat the same performance I'd get 1 BCH every 37 days (and I am not including the Celsius Rewards that get added weekly)
So now I want to use this post for something different. This is a very special day in my adopted home city known as Day 0. At exactly 5pm today Air Raid Sirens will sound across the city and people will come to a stand still while they remember the great sacrifice of the city as a consequence of the reprisals that followed was effectively depopulated through both terror and widespread extermination (just for being a citizen - not that any circumstance ever makes it right).…
Dinner is served need to get it down me quick before the race start!
Fed and watered. Prime seat in the house and ready to go. Will there be carnage on the first lap in the rain?
Looking at that graphic - seems Hamilton likes this circuit
Team orders on Bottas? Take as much of the front as you can out and let Lewis get away?
Now that was definitely NOT a racing incident. Penalties for Bottas in the next race (back of grid start?) Looks like a good day for Lewis now though
Max up to 9th on restart is my prediction
Never seen anything like that. One car on the start line
I really don't understand what is going on today - anyone else?
Lewis playing the clean air gamble because he was getting nowhere
You are all going to hate me but nicely done Lewis!
Thanks Sky didnt see that one
Alonso has a very wide car Bottas five places down next race. ... and still Lewis can't get through
Air raid sirens over Warsaw as we remember those brave fighters of '44 who rose up against Nazi oppression in 1944
Race on. Go Hamilton!! Should be able to get 3rd now Any higher is out of range now. Alonso did a good job on him
I will say it before you do Bitcoin Baby! GASSSSSLYYYYY!
when i was a kid growing up this was an Alpine (Talbot) a terrible British car and I think Lewis would have even struggled to get past Alonso in this. I know I am a Lewis fan but well done Alonso. Without you Lewis may have taken 1st.Keeps the competition lively :D
Overall a marked improvement in August and I even turned around the slight overall deficit that I was left with at the end of June. Percentages in the three investment amounts are a comparison to original investment amounts Losses in Investment 1 have fallen by a quarter and Invest 2 has continued to surge although a significant amount of the growth as come from free crypto being added - I do the work and Investment 2 is mine - so why shouldn't I? BabyRah's is nice and…
Finally got time to look at my novel, but its quite late so not going to get much done tonight
So I managed a bit, but no new material as such just added to and ensured that it remained consistent with the new material and now that is me done for the night
Travelling today. Weather overcast and rainy so at least the car won't get too hot for BabyRah :D
Just seen the post from BitCoinBaby about Vettel's disqualification that is harsh when part of the ethos of F1 is to galvanise the car to get to the finish line. If it's the rule and it is clear I guess it has to be. Just a stupid rule. Consider this, if a car runs out of fuel during the race its the team / driver's loss. If they estimate it just right or with little reserve left credit to the team for the calcs and the driver for driving smart As a Lewis fan I do not want…
so yesterday was my second best noise day ever. the day before will take some beating though. almost ready for the road. How's everybody doing?
is it just me or do some given hearts disappear at times? maybe i inadvertently double click sometimes? i almost always heart replies unless obvious spam. so if you have a missing heart ill do my best to keep up obviously noise decide how much they are worth
pleased this track isn't the main road as beautiful as it is
and now we are in the middle of the forest. a nice retreat from city life
So now I am less than half a kilometre from one of Europe's most unfriendly borders, but in the forest (well in the last house on the edge of a small town abutting the forest). Time to retreat, time to relax, time for family and time to write and a bit of time left to make some more Noise. To retreat is no bad thing!
You may have noticed that i stopped doing my Daily Noise Reports a week or 10 days ago - so now for the first time I give to you a MONTHLY REPORT for July BCH Received from Noise = 0.2629105 worth at today's price £104.67 Total tips received = 2909 BCH Rewards from Celsius = 0.00294982 worth at today's price £1.17 Total Earnings thanks to Noise Cash £105.84 Thanks to my changes in how I post this may well be higher - certainly in terms of amount of BCH if not value. I expect…
whats not to enjoy about this ♥️♥️♥️
Another $3.91 of passive income added today, most of it in stablecoin, thanks to Celsius
one last thing tonight. have to be extra careful here with BabyRah because there are wolves in the forest
Should hit 0.9 Noise BCH today and then the final countdown begins
One of the most wonderful things in the world about having a baby is when you hold him and he just stares into your eyes. Total trust total love... just total everything <3
and there it is. 0.9bch maybe as little as a week away from my first whole one. thanks to noise and my fellow noisers 😁
So random fact time again - which one is UNTRUE 1) I slept in a sleeping bag in the aisle of a coach and when it went around a corner suddenly a whole load of stuff fell on top of me and because my arms were inside the sleeping bag I was powerless to do anything as I watched it fall. 2) I slept on a market stall at -8C one winter night 3) I once slept in SIX different places / beds in THREE countries and woke up so confused towards the end that I didn't even know which…
So here goes in reverse order 3) In the space of 8 days I spent my last night in Klina (Kosova) before going for one night to Gjakova (Kosova) and then I went to Lezhe in Albania for two nights before traveling to Paskoqan (on the outskirts of Tirana) where I spent another couple of nights before flying back to England where i spent one night at my stepfather's before going and staying at my Grandma's - totally true It was quite an adventure travelling between Kosova and…
I just want to remind everybody - and indeed I mentioned it to a friend just yesterday - that although I dont seem to respond to comments of my friends' in channels i do see and heart, it is just that if i subscribe they clutter my feed far too much and I struggle to keep up anyway.. I have restricted myself to five relatively undersubscribed channels So if you don't see a comment on your Random Thought, Sharing Your Own Life, Your Own Content of Photograph among others…
So I started the day after pairing with TEZOs with DAI last night after its mini surge and leveraging it this morning when it dipped again. Result More TEZOs and more DAI Tonight my chosen pairing is ALGORAND vs MAKER as Maker should make a reasonable upward correction tomorrow that should outstrip any movement made by ALGORAND I could be wrong but with most my stablecoin long term committed to ALTs it is only micro-amounts anyway and I can wait it out if necessary
Managed to start some writing this evening - about 1000 words so far, but I am kind of filling gaps, which is harder and probably not the easiest way to write fiction. So far Novel 2 (part 2 of three in the trilogy) looks like this from the beginning 25% Complete 10% Gap not started 35% Complete 25% Partially done (maybe just under half) 5% about half done So maybe about 80% over all completed. it's not like an exam when you go through and write the easy answers first. There…
And so I have now set myself the target of writing the two most difficult chapters of the novel before my holiday is over. Unlikely to succeed but targets are supposed to be challenging
the forest is magical and beautiful but the one thing i don't like it's being on the menu. and I'm not talking about the wolves again. pesky mosquitoes
Been for a long walk in the forest with MamaRah and BabyRah and now finally I have time to go through my Noise feed properly and log my earnings from yesterday
About a week ago Coinbase Earn offered $3 of Balancer (BAL) and when i checked my account I was 'on the waitlist' but now it has completely disappeared i am not waiting and it is not on the Earn dashboard either. Anybody else experienced this or got any idea as to why this has happened?
So last night's move on Maker paid off and I just made a micro profit which now gets added to BabyRah's staked Algorand. i think I like this new NO RISK strategy of mine. From small acorns...
Been noising for the last hour or so and still havent caught up, but need to get down to some writing. Will pop in from time to time. Now to start those two difficult chapters I mentioned last night, but first methinks I need one more coffee
NEVER NEVER NEVER turn off your touchpad on your laptop. I dont know if it is because I am left handed but my computer goes crazy when I am writing. The page expands and contracts all over the place randomly (funnily enough it does actions which in another context could be quite useful but I never seem to be able to do them deliberately when I try) and also other things randomly open such as Save As... So I thought - "I'll turn it off while i am writing' BAD MISTAKE ON MY HP…
Nothing like listening to a bit of KREATOR to clear the cobwebs from your mind and press the reset button... I needed that.
Ok so made a start on one of the two difficult chapters, this being the first of the two. Literally just wrote this in the last few minutes. It is the first draft so I am not sure it will survive the editing process. Enjoy _________________ I woke up early when the day came and crept out of bed and grabbed my dressing gown. The air in the flat was particularly nippy this morning. I quickly made coffee and went to her side of the bed and put both steaming mugs on her bedside…
So in the end I managed about 2200 words and got down about 40% of one of the difficult chapters. A bit of a bitty day but progress made. Hopefully I can say the same tomorrow.
worked out last night in the early hours how to finish one off the difficult chapters. it's deliciouusly cruel it's perfect 👌
not the greatest picture in the world but just a few mins ago
Leisurely (which means) busy morning walking in the park with the family. DaddyRah's pram driving skills are definitely improving as he did an off-road route and somehow BabyRah slept through it. Now time to go through my Noise and get to some writing if BabyRah allows
Just getting to the nasty part of the chapter, been looking forward to writing it. Those of you who read the sample from last night will know it started so well for the protagonist. Well now it's downhill all the way from here... BUT NO SPOILERS
Also from this morning's walk
So today I decided to share part of my submission letter for my manuscript for the first novel with you. As you know it was accepted so I must be doing something right I have removed spoilers "I shared the manuscript with three acquaintances and all three encouraged me to publish. The first, a female, described the story as arousing, authentic and enthralling. The first male said it was engaging and admitted that he cried unashamedly at the moment ____SPOILER_____. The other…
Oh wow Dominika (novel) has got so nasty - I knew it was going to be hard. I am almost crying writing it! But it is necessary the protagonist suffer or the lesson will not be learnt.
That was hard, one of the hardest chapters I've ever written, but so necessary to the plotline. I think it is a good thing to emotionally engage with the characters and the journeys they are on. So the first of two difficult chapters complete and the second one is not so hard as it will form a bridge to move the story along. I love writng and how much it engages the mind and emotions.
So I've written a whopping 5200 words today including the most difficult part of the most difficult chapter in the whole novel. I started the next chapter and made some good progress but my words are becoming rambling so it is time to stop. I will have to do a rewrite if I keep going and now my mind is too tired to write with the tightness that is needed to achieve what I want. Standards matter and especially if it is to be published
3.30 am here and babyrah poo bomb dealt with. he's so cute thou6. need to sleep
so woke up this morning to a soggy rainy forest. ideal writing conditions only everyone is inside and it's too loud. let's see how it goes
been going through my Noise feed steadily commenting and hearting, but its actually quiet now so i should use the time to write. I can make Noise when it is loud lol EDITED UPDATE: No I am not. Literally as I pressed POST BabyRah woke up. Such is life.
In-laws have just got back from a walk and less than half a kilometre from where we are staying they saw a pair of wolves cross their path. This is why we can't leave BabyRah in the garden on his own even for a few seconds. BTW don't misunderstand. I am happy for the wolves to be here and frankly we need to get along better with nature rather than bending it to our will - which usually means enclosing or exterminating. Mosquitoes are of course an exception
So good progress is being made on the other difficult chapter and got right to the central theme now. And now I have to tear the protagonist into pieces before she can move forwards. My heart is breaking as i write.
So there it is. I've hit my target and drafted the other difficult chapter in full. Now I just need to go back and complete the missing chapter from early on in the novel and complete the novel with the last couple of chapters and the Epilogue / Afterword. Great progress in the last few days and now I get to enjoy the gentle slope into a surprise conclusion.
Maybe it was the fork in Ethereum but there is a feeling that everything is coming back to life again Is it just me or can you feel it too?
I dont know if this has happened to anybody else but suddenly my Noise feed is full of people I don't. Probably about 80% mixed up with my people
so today i wrote a net 1750 words. i say net because although it wasnt as rambling as i thought last night it needed a bit of tidying up which meant some deletions
and so after all it has been a largely successful but soggy day. Maybe if I listen carefully I will hear the wolves baying. BabyRah is safe in bed with us though.
So it has started rainy over the forest today, but there is a promise of increasing sunshine as the day goes on. Sounds perfect but just maybe the humidity may be a bit too much Hit my writing target for this week but it is always good to write a little a day. Every sentence hones the writers skill, sharpens his pen and develops his style
My Alts are coming back to life! I moved too early on them in the dip and at worst they hit 50% of the value I paid for them (ouch) and this was despite not moving until about a week into the May dip. Too soon as it turned out. So in the last few days they have recovered to about 65% of what I paid. Still not good, but better than half. Still need to hodl for some time, but they are moving and because I moved on the dip, albeit too soon they don't even need to get anywhere…
So the investment part of my Portfolio (Coinbase) is now in the best condition it has been in since the end of May. Just been for a lovely walk with the family and come back to another jump. Maybe I should go for another walk.
A tricky question for my Noise friends. Asking this as no family I know is on here (compared to other social media) and one of the answers might be I am a selfish ass - so hit me between the eyes if that is the case: So here is the case I have been with MamaRah for 14 years and got married 7 years ago and in April along came BabyRah. You almost certainly know that I no longer live in England and my family are "foreign" - well strictly speaking I am the foreigner in their…
Has Coinbase crashed - kind of loads but without any figures / numbers
Another chapter that had been partially written nailed. Protagonist is moving to a better place now. Two chapter left to write and the Epilogue and Afterword. And still my fingers itch to write.
Got an interesting dilemma to face. Tomorrow i am going to hit 50,000 Coins again on Cointiply. Should I convert to BTC while it is surging and may surge even further or should I hold on Cointiply for a steady 5% and wait for the next dip and add to my Cointiply Coins all the time. What would you do?
so writing wise i completed the first draft of the last chapter. to do missing contextual chapter from earlier in the novel . epilogue afterword which is 80% done so all in all my second novel is almost complete
last day in the forest today lots of walks and babyrah and some noise and maybe some writing
One of the things i do habitually is to look at the correction percentages after a surge / pump and on the whole after the last couple of days - with few exceptions - the drop in value of a lot of assets has been less than 2%. Seems to make me think that for the time being this is sustainable. Have the bulls finally broken out?
With me now closing in on my first Noise BCH (at 0.95 and counting) I have just revisited my P0x article about the wonders of putting Noise and Celsius together. If you missed it. https://www.publish0x.com/rah/the-symbiotic-synergy-of-celsius-and-noisecash-xxwpelx
good news. Despite not expecting to I have found a window and added another 700 words bad news. BabyRah is really grouchy with a bad stomach and diarrhea. Could be consequence of iron supplements that he needs that ironically (no pun intended) made him constipated for 2 months You may wonder why I am writing instead of fussing around him - am I so cold? No - MamaRah and the grandparents are watching and he gets even more fussy if too many people so I am observing from a…
So BabyRah is doing much better now . Actually he is sleeping so I am going to write. Weather looks like it is going to be bad for one last walk before going home tomorrow.
I got asked the other day what app I use to write with and actually I am a very simple worker with simple tools - so I give to you a slightly adjusted screenshot of Microsoft Word and another sample that hints of trouble... but doesn't give too much away. I left the word / page count visible
Just realised I need to add another chapter - I thought I had once chapter to go (and the afterward to finish) but i've realised that the story has to travel to far in the space I allowed. So addendum to one chapter and two to go!
one more walk to the forest with BabyRah ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
The day started so well and now so red. Chance to leverage some asset growth
What is going on today? Everything was rosy in cryptoland until about 4 hours ago and then a sudden massive dip and now after not checking for about half an hour about 2/3 of the dip has gone away. so averaging about 3% down. Is this a good sign for tomorrow.
Oh my what fun - BabyRah has just proper laughed for the first time and what I mean is a sustained laugh not an almost laugh / snigger. For a day that started badly for him he is doing so well. Brought a tear to my eye.
and so now it is the last night of the holiday and travelling tomorrow. Work again from Tuesday. Life is back to normal (almost)
one last look before saying goodbye...
emergency stop for babyrah. korma back on a journey is harder to xeal wirh than at home
a picturesque resi stop on the way home
a quiet day for me on noise today but home now and all is good and back to normal after a week in the forest
Head has not been totally in the game today, between coming home, a cracking headache and a very unsettled BabyRah I have only just now had chance to start my P0x tips and look at my portfolio Yesterday there was a lot of Noise and corresponding hearts -I think today with be much quieter
So made a move on consolidating some TEZOs in DAI - looking to leverage gains in both currencies when it dips
going to be a long night i think. BabyRah isn't acclimatising to being back home. napped dor only about 10 mins a couple of hours ago but not really slept sinve about 1pm when we were still travelling seriously overtired
BabyRah is finally down but we'll see for how long going to take the advice i was given since he's been born 'sleep when the baby sleeps' i think there is a conspiracy between existing parents not to warn expecting or new parents about the sleeplessness
and so after the week off normality returns and i have some training to deliver in about an hour. very early start esp for a first morning back
So since it is a new start after my holiday I thought Id quickly share my working ethos on building client cooperation - relationships are built in the spontaneous not the formal. Those casual encounters in the corridor or coffee room matter - be interested AND interesting - be human (be fallible - makes you more approachable) - go the extra mile (it really doesn't cost that much and reaps huge rewards) and there you have it in a nutshell
Still got some way to go on my Alts but they are growing again nicely. Only question is after Hodling for so long do I take the profit earlier (I am nowhere near that point yet BTW) or do I wait and go big. My feeling is to hodl it out a bit longer because a small profit makes what is now a three month hodl relatively pointless. Conventional wisdom however suggests taking profit early. Thoughts?
Another landmark number of fans reached - thank you very much each and every one of you.
Just came up in a thread I am following but what was your first computer. Show your age :D Mine was a Zx81 with a massive 1k RAM. Black and white picture you got by shoving a lead into the back of a TV. Everything (and I mean everything) had to be entered in BASIC. We all did this 10 REM Starter Program 20 PRINT "I am amazing" 30 GOTO 20 Then type RUN and watch your screen fill up with how amazing you are!
Cracking storm going on here. Not seen so much rain for a while. At least it is good for the plant life / trees. Wouldnt want to be out in it though!
Things are definitely brightening up in Cryptoland
In 1996 Alan Shearer moved from Blackburn Rovers to Newcastle United for a then world record fee of £15m on 9th August (also 1996) he made his debut. Who was it against and what was the score and more importantly did he score?
Respect to Arnie for this
Maybe I shouldn't get political on here but I can't stop myself An appeal to all of my Polish friends (and please share). Have a look at this man. Many years ago he was your Prime Minister and at the time my view was I could drink a beer with him but never buy a car from him. Since then he has honed his statecraft and matured as a politician especially in the European Arena This is the man who CAN SAVE POLAND from slipping further and further into the exact totalatarianism…
Anyone else noticed hte interface has changed on Bitcoin .com
Havent done any writing today and it almost feels like my fingers are literally itching. Parents in law have gone home now and holiday is over so it is just BabyRah MamaRah and me. Maybe tomorrow I will get some time. We'll see.
Some nice continuous growth overnight. The next couple of weeks will define whether the bulls are back
Just checked my current Noise figures and now stand at 0.98 BCH. Full membership of the BCH club is rapidly approaching I am happy to say
Got a progress report from the publishers :D Type set and set to publishing standards - next step is proof reading which it is in line for in the nearest future another step closer...
on smart phpne at mo so not writing too much because i cant 😂 BabyRah is having another aet of vaccinations today so he's likely to be grouchy. will reply to my posts when i can and go through my feed aftwr all in all not bad fot typing on a smartphone
So it is now exactly a year since we found out that we were pregnant with BabyRah. It was a six year journey that nearly cost MamaRah her life in 2019, but now we have him and he as she made me whole he makes us complete.
ALTS are still bubbling along nicely - maybe the bull will get across the finish line and drag them back into profitability during this run
so far so good with BabyRah ❤️ no side effects after vaccines
Ok so a long morning tomorrow four sessions relatively back to back. Another quiet day on Noise for me. Vaccines for BabyRah and lots of other stuff going on. Still no chance to get to my writing today.... ... maybe tomorrow.
Busy morning so far My BCH is crawling slowly to 1, and maybe it has slowed down due to the increase in price? Now looking at Friday (I hope) to hit my first BCH from Noise. How are things for everybody today?
Look what I received in my email this morning. This is an initial draft of my novel cover based on my suggestions. What do you think? It is all quite exciting as it begins to come together
So I have myself a dilemma. Really tired after a long morning. BabyRah has fallen asleep on MamaRah. I have told her I am ready when she needs me. The prob is that i have a training session in about 2 hours and need to be fresh. So I have a window for who knows how long - write or sleep.? I feel a greater need to sleep but feel like I should write.
So today is another landmark in BabyRah's life. He is not having the best day of his little life so far as he had another round of vaccines yesterday, However today is the day when he turned FOUR MONTHS OLD already. Soon he will be out of nappies and walking and running and talking non-stop I wait for those days when we can sleep again but in the meantime we are trying to enjoy every moment - even the difficult ones.
just checked my celsius and i now have 0.99 noise bch. so close. will i cross the line tomorrow? we might have to wait until Saturday to find out
So in the end I managed 700 words today - not as epic as the amount I was managing last week but every little helps :D
Busy morning ahead and then the weekend - although with BabyRah weekends are often more tiring. Working is a break! How's your outlook for the weekend?
Just tried to post with two pictures but it wouldnt let. me. I didn't realise yesterday that I was provided with two draft cover designs. Which one do you prefer. I will try to put both in this post and it seems to have worked
Just got BabyRah down for an afternoon nap - a real rarity. He doesn't like sleeping during the day Might get 5 minutes peace
My coinbase is breaking even again. Celsius is another matter as is Noise Coinbase is working for me again Yippee!!!
Why is everything so damn difficult on an Android Phone Not the first issue I have had with the counterproductive crap OS that google came up with. This time I simply wanted to download a photo from my email (one of the book covers) and send it to somebody by text message. Downloaded from email fine. Where the hell did it go? No idea. Downloaded it again and found it and it is too big And what the hell is it all about when you send a text message with an image. If you write…
I am so close to my first ever Noise BCH!!! Strictly speaking I probably am already because Celsius rewards are applied today even though I dont actually receive them until Monday. I am $2.14 away or but another way I have 0.997xxx BCH
Had a rare treat this morning. MamaRah got up with BabyRah and I slept in. It really is the first time i have managed to do that since he was born :D
Nice Saturday stroll with BabyRah. Hope to get through my Noise feed later
Publish0x is reverting back to FARM, Great news and suddenly I have at least one useful P0x token again. Changeover date 6th September for first withdrawal BTW I ended up not going for the walk - Was all ready and then BabyRah fell asleep - something he is not very good at doing in the day. Dare I wish to believe it is the start of a routine? Crazy I know!
made it 😁 will try to make make my second in 100 days but with surging prices might be hard. my rule is noise only and associated celsius rewards
Mixed success with BabyRah naps today. Struggling to get him down for one last nap before his final feed and putting him down for the night and then it is night mode. Wouldnt change it for the world but seems God or nature had a sense of humour when deciding to make babies so uncooperative. - on that note what is it they have with filling a nappy just after changing them despite doing your best to wait or read them Is it a poop demon or something?
so in the 24 hours that's seen my first noise bch and my coinbase move back into profit again its proven to be quite a day. i wonder what tomorrow will bring
so this morning BabyRah will get his walk with me. How's everybody's Sunday looking? 😊
Nice walk for babyrah and me but got a bit warm for both of us
To celebrate achieving my first pure BCH through Noise I have just published an article on Publish0x about it. Please feel free to check it out. Thank you Noise and my fellow Noisers https://www.publish0x.com/rah/how-i-made-my-first-noise-bch-xnxnxyj
MamaRah has stolen my song to ease BabyRah to sleep. Only I sing flat so I dont know what she is doing to it, but it can't be worst than my version.
Now there is a surprise. Spurs in front. COYS
Just written the most sexy delicious 500 words I have ever written, need to respect community rules though :D Too hot for Noise!
So overnight I made my next nominal Value target of $700, next nominal target is $800. Thank you Noise and my fellow noisers and hope you hare having a good morning or good day or good evening whatever time zone you are in
Time for true and false again. Which TWO statements about me are true and which one is false. 1) On two occasions in my life I have found myself looking down the barrel of a gun 2) I once travelled on a boat which foreigners were advised to avoid as it was a hub of human, gun and drug trafficking 3) I was emergency evacuated from Albania during the 1997 Anarchy Remember two true one false. Have a go!
Dare I say it... methinks we are beginning to find a bit of a routine with BabyRah
So here goes TRUE vs FALSE 1) TRUE - both occasions were in Albania. On the first occasion I was passing a mechanic's yard and this guy randomly pulled a pistol on me. In the moment nobody knows how they are going to react and so I just laughed at him - a bit forced tbh and walked away. Only when I was safe did the emotional impact of the possible danger occur to me. On the second occasion a guy pressed a gun into my kidney, again you don't know how you are going to react…
Although he managed it once last week on the sofa under my extremely close supervision BabyRah has just spent the last hour practicing rolling from his back onto his belly. Before then he'd done it only once. He has done it half a dozen times in the last hour. Another step in BabyRah's development
Hope we are all aware of this but just in case. Watch out for scam emails purportedly from legitimate sources. I just got this one from "Coinbase" I have highlighted everything that should raise a concern, which might not always be so obvious to non-native speakers of English. Any questions about any of my highlights feel free to request. It coincided with the last QR event so for a second I thought it might be real even if strange. If you are not sure look at the evidence.…
Massive storm where I am and banging headache - not sure it is a coincidence. Sorry by the way if I am not interacting as much as usual. Doing what I can. No writing today though.
Anyone else paralysed by Coinbase connection issues? Have a chance to leverage some growth and it is getting in the way. Cosmos might drop further but if it rises again I will be so ****** off.
Really frustrating the prices I am watching are beginning to recover and an opportunity to leverage some growth is slipping away :(
Preparing for a Job Interview For many applying for a job is a highly stressful and pressured life event. This is not necessarily a bad thing because a little bit of tension can bring that additional degree of focus that might be the difference between a successful and unsuccessful application. Some compare a bit of tension to the getting the right note from a guitar string. Too much stress and the string will break, but conversely too little and the string hangs loose and…
So here is another go at read:cash/ I promised this article a few weeks ago about Preparing for a Job Interview and this is based on one of the training resources I have put together for my coaching business. https://read.cash/@rah/preparing-for-a-job-interview-f2428d3e Enjoy
So after yesterday's fake "Coinbase" email (is it a coincidence that i am having probs with CB today?) here is a summary of danger signs to look out for. -Bad grammar and bad spelling -Shortened forms (eg we've) are considered informal and unacceptable in such emails -email address - where it was sent from -destination for any links - hover to see where it goes. -knowledge gaps - do they seem to know what they are talking about. -context, did you experience an issue are you…
Back blurb for the novel now done. Will make a couple of minor adjustments though before it is finished
Still no good on Coinbase. I know it is not issues with me but there own internal problem. Please tell me i am not the only one. I have lost at least one opportunity to leverage some growth today :(
and still no joy from Coinbase that has been the entire day now and missed opportunities. They should compensate with some free crypto
so it appears that coinbase works on the app but not on the browser and now aftwr it's mini dip this morning cosmos has rocketed and its out of sight for me to leverage anything for the foreseeable. thank you coinbase 😡
Woke up this morning and just checked my Coinbase it appears to be working properly again. A bit too little too late after it stole a growth opportunity for me
Just putting this out there. What are the community's feelings about why investing in Crypto? Two points to discuss, but feel free to add to the discussion. - Tax evasion - removing the relative monopoly that banks have on our fiat funds by giving us an alternative. In my opinion taxes are frustrating and annoying, but so long as they are not extortionate we should be prepared to submit to the relevant authorities as they pay for among other things, heath (in the UK) ,…
MIght actually get some writing time today - let's see how it goes. Publisher contacted to see if they are interested in running with the entire trilogy. Might be premature because they probably want to see how The Confession goes.
Just earned my $3 of FETCH on Coinbase Earn. Thank you very much. If you haven't got yours yet... :D
Slightly later tonight than recently but BabyRah is down after a good feed. A bit touchy today because he has some nappy rash which we hope will clear up soon. he is doing so well and we are so proud of him xxx
Nice surge on COSMOS overnight, looking to leverage some growth when it dips.
Cosmos is dipping beautifully after the surge. If I time it right this might be one of my best sell buybacks ever. I am so happy Coinbase is working properly today :D
I am getting so excited about the novel now - no release date yet - but the way everything is accelerating is just incredible. I have friends who aspire to be novelists - and somehow I jumped to the head of the queue and MamaRah is so proud of me too which helps - even though she will probably never read it lol :D
Decided to capitalise on the Cosmos dip - maybe slightly early but 2% in about 3 hours so not complaining EDIT - actually make more 1.5% DAI and 2% COSMOS
Looking to make a similar growth on Algorand as I did on COSMOS earlier but it is still going up. Let's see how it plays out over the weekend.
Had a bit of fun earlier today. Got the following reply to one of my posts so decided to play (not heart). Why do spammers think that because they string a couple of non-specific meaningless sentences together that they deserve a reward? What is funniest was they regurgitated the same msg and when I asked again they gave up. Needless to say (s)he gave up at that point.
Just a reminder if you didnt get it yet. $3 of free FETCH is currently available on Coinbase. If you didn't get yours yet make sure you don't miss out. I got mine yesterday. Wishing you all well :D
I really can't decide which is cuter. BabyRah looking into my eyes with complete trust. I get so lost in his love BabyRah falling asleep in my arms and being so at peace
Closing in on 1500. I am overwhelmed, humbled and grateful for the levels of support I have on here. My fellow noisers and noise really are amazing. Wonder how much longer it will be till I hit that 1500. Thank you to each and all of you.
BabyRah's increasing dexterity is presenting its challenges, but one advantage is that he can now assist in his own nappy changes now by the simple fact that he can hold his own feet up which means I don't have to. He does it when I encourage him and then I have two hands to deal with the messy end.
Hoping to have a repeat of yesterday's success with COSMOS /DAI paring today. Moved some surged Cosmos ready for the buy back
:D :D :D My Coinbase is now above the value of my original investment amount on it's own. Which is really good considering I have made some transfers to Celsius. Means my trading account is really reviving as this is the best it has been since the May crash when the bears escaped
Just updated my figures and as things currently stand my portfolio value has just hit an ATH - which is based on a history going back 14 months to when I first started.] And I am not even sure the bulls are rampaging yet...
Leveraged 1% growth of my COSMOS and added a single DAI to my stablised platform. In the space of just over an hour. Not huge figures... but then when you think about how the banks reward us..
Not sure if I should dare to write this but I have got a writing window - well at least until BabyRah wakes up again.
I recently posted on how BabyRah has finessed rolling onto his belly. He still hasnt quite figured out how to get back on his back yet. He has managed once. However when he is on his belly his favourite thing is not one of his toys as he prefers to stare at himself in a mirror. Is it possible for a four month old to be vain? lol
Managed a paltry 500 words today - but they were good words lol
not feeling great today. MamaRah wants us all to go for a walk bur in not sure I'm feeling up for it.
BCH broke £500 overnight - are the bulls truly back?
Just fell back to sleep for two hours. Did I miss anything? Feeling a lot better now though
And there is another Cosmos surge for me to take advantage of I hope. Fourth time in 3 days :D
BabyRah is looking very fine today
always nice to know 💕💕💕
Looks like I am in the Noise desert again for some reason.
Not the usual sort of thing i post but it is so cute that I couldn't resist
Hoping for a BitCoin Baby Sunday dip on Cosmos. Moved too soon on the surge today. Feel tricked like a batsman playing against world class spin after the week I have had. Been knocking Cosmos out of the ground and now it tossed up one too many. For the unfamilar that is cricket terminology
Just checked my Celsius I am already a 20th of my way to my second BCH. Happy days :D
Time for some Sunday Noise. My mission, and i have chosen to accept it, is to start training BabyRah to sleep in his big boy cot in his own room rather than the crib that is attached to our bed. He needs to be able to do this in less than two months so it is time to start. He had a false landing a few minutes ago, he fell asleep in my arms but woke up when i put him down. He is not unhappy though and my hope is that this is the first step which will lead to him being able to…
BabyRah didn't actually manage to fall asleep but he did remain peaceful in his cot for about half an hour. Small steps, but increment by increment...
Been for a walk and I am not sure but this could be the first time BabyRah has been in the rain
I have never seen this before on P0x - I wonder what the author wrote
Just made a nice double move on COSMOS and DAI, gaining in both currencies. Fifth time in a week. On another note BabyRah has just managed to put his toes in his mouth for the first time <3
The legendary Red Arrows based where I from, performing over Gdynia in Poland where i now live. A touch of home in the Polish skies
Supporting Chelsea today as my bro is a fan. will be interesting to see how Lukaku does. He was always an almost player in the Premier League and now he has his chance
A gift for the new boy. Harder to miss than score
and now it is two. Arsenal are looking at a drubbing esp when I sense Chelsea aren't even out of second gear yet.
So it seems that the currencies I was looking to dip failed to do so significantly enough and those I wish to grow dipped slightly over the day. Still managed to squeeze a bit of gain though as the day went on.
