@rah in August 2021

@rah

Hard day yesterday with BabyRah, easy day for work today, Let's see how BabyRah is today :D

@rah

Havent done the stats yet - will wait til Celsius comes in later but i think again my portfolio is at an ATH and I am waiting for a greater correction on Cosmos to leverage a bit more growth

@rah

definitely cooler today and looks like rain. waering jwans rather than shorts for the first time since... i can't remember

@rah

Celsius Rewards in. that is another easy $4+ passively earned

@rah

Time for True or False. Which ONE of these statements about me is untrue I got really bad toothache in Ghana and had to have a tooth extracted when I got home because the Lonely Planet Guide (remember them) said Ghana is wonderful but don't go to the dentist I was once in the Sahara and when I stopped for a break there was no water only Pepsi I have been in car crashes in three different countries.

@rah

BabyRah just before i wrestle him to sleep

@rah

Probably is the most pointless word ever invented in language as it renders every single sentence it appears in completely worthless I am probably the best time keeper i know Noise is probably the best platform for free crypto I am probably a good dad. Each one of those sentences is undone by the word probably

@rah

Ok so here goes. I was in Ghana and I had a really bad tooth that later had to be extracted and the Lonely Planet guide did say that. I must stress however that this was in 1993 and I was in the small provincial town of Koforidua. The professionalism of the dentist was undoubted but the facilities were very basic. @cryptozeug called the Sahara correctly,. I was there and at some point we stopped for some refreshments. There was no water but we must remember ALWAYS Coca-Cola…

@rah

Made it to another milestone a few minutes ago. Thank you very much all of you - my fellow Noisers

@rah

Got BabyRah down last night at 20.24, the earliest time yet and still I woke up this morning feeling more tired than ever. He did his bit!

@rah

Didn't get chance to compile the figures yesterday, but just done them now and I am pleased to see that my portfolio is at an ATH. The bulls are running, but hardly rampaging yet!

@rah

Doesn't work every time but Daddy's Super Power does seem to be getting BabyRah down which takes some of the pressure off MamaRah - which can only be a good thing!

@rah

I always thought I would have problems with nappy changing as I have often been around others when it is nappy change time and frankly i have always wanted to puke. Yet I have not had this problem with BabyRah and I have always heard it is different when it's your own,. And finally I have worked out why. When it is somebody else's baby you are cleaning up s*** but when it is your own you are cleaning your baby. The small mental adjustment makes a massive difference.

@rah

Needing Cosmos to fall a little further to do a buyback. Changed it for DAI when it was about halfway up its recent surge. Moved just a little bit too soon (why is it that i always seem to do that?) but it is correcting down nicely. Thank you very much

@rah

and in the two hours I was taking BabyRah for a walk Cosmos plummeted and I leveraged gain in both my DAI and COSMOS holding which are staking anyway so win win and CryptoRah is a happy boy!

@rah

An annoying concept from American English is the modal negative and sadly it is creeping into British English too. Let me illustrate. 'Let me see if I can't help you.' - WELL IF YOU CAN'T I WILL ASK SOMEBODY ELSE. GOOD DAY SIR! Why not just say. 'Let me see if I CAN help you.' It makes more sense! I have a few more of these if you are interested, and I know that British English is not faultless. After all we gave the world the future perfect continuous - which has been…

@rah

So after drawing to Southampton the mighty Manchester United have lost to the emerging Lincoln City. Admittedly it was the Papa John's and it was United's under 21s. Watch this guy. You heard about him first from me. Antony Scully Crypto advert unintentional!

@rah

challenging night with BabyRah last night i have to work and she needs to rest. let's hope BabyRah naps well today so we can

@rah

As a single word Data is the one word that represents the ultimate in academic pomposity. Data is or Data are ? This Data or Those Data? Think about it logically, Data is a synonym of information and information is an uncountable noun, You do not have informationS, only pieces / bits of / snippets of information etc What I have just said, but the letter of the law, is NOT true, but it is not pragmatic. Strictly speaking Data belongs to that group of irregular plurals so it…

@rah

so I just received an email from my bank that they are cutting my savings interest rate again. It is going down from 0.010% (the last 0 is important because it makes them look good) to goodness knows what. AND THAT IS WHY CRYPTO Greedy ********* dont want our money anymore after the bailouts of a decade or so (taxpayers money I care to remind you) which they use for liquidity. It is piracy of the worst kind.

@rah

So little Noise today, so much to do. BabyRah has been really intense. I even had to stop and take him out of the pram and sing to him on our walk. Not sure what the neighbours thought!

@rah

This evening something truly wondrous happened. BabyRah has become quite proficient at rolling onto his belly from his back in recent weeks and a few nights ago MamaRah woke to find him on his belly which was a cause of concern, However, today in the space of about 10 minutes he rolled onto his belly and then onto his back at least five times, Previously he'd only managed it once. His technique is a bit heavy headed and he tends to land on the back of his head but for now…

@rah

Been a while since I did this so I am signing off with one of my not an NFT. Just before I stopped sharing somebody requested fish so here we go

@rah

busy morning ahead but let's make time to make some positive noises together

@rah

Moved some ALGORAND in the middle of the recent surge now hoping to catch it on the way down and leverage more growth. Meanwhile it is staking as DAI anyway :D

@rah

I am curious about people's experiences and thoughts. Complete the following sentence... The best thing about Noise:Cash is... I will share my answer in a different post later.

@rah

Managed to find a brief writing window got maybe 200 words down and then... BabyRah!!! Doesn't need any further explanation lol

@rah

Earlier on I asked what people like most about Noise My answer is the diverse people I have come to know and the sense of community. There is no nastiness such as that which can be seen on other social media (interestingly Twitter is among the worst and how often do we draw parallels between Noise and Twitter?). Secondly if i don't see somebody on for example Facebook for a few days I hardly notice as i know Facebook also filters what users see, but on here esp if it is…

@rah

I wish the new affliate link had come sooner. I have introduced several people to Noise and even one @kathrynmcgrath89 as recently as last week. But hey-ho that's life

@rah

So little movement today, and not just on the market. Every time I get a chance my eyes just go and I need to sleep. And i so want to write. The manuscript is quite close to done and the momentum of the forest is gone and now the Publishers are expecting something from me So tired... On Saturday MamaRah and BabyRah are going to her parents for a couple of weeks to give them time together and I hope to relax maybe watch a few films and complete some projects and tasks that…

@rah

So BabyRah was doing really well all day but decided to only stay down for five minutes on his last nap so now I had an overtired and cranky little one to put down, but it seems stay calm and keep going his little will doesnt have a chance against the willful determination I have

@rah

Up early with BabyRah and got a couple of hours of training to deliver this morning and then it is the slope into the weekend. Tomorrow MamaRah and BabyRah are going to her parents for a couple of weeks so BabyRah can have some grandparent time and MamaRah can have some time. I will be home alone and have time to rest and finish some projects - novel number 2 for example - and a few other bits. Grandparents love being hands on and BabyRah loves spending time with them too…

@rah

Other than counting my daily staking rewards nothing is going to happen on my Coinbase today. The two I am waiting to dip haven't and everything else has. Is that the worst kind of wrong call? Oh well let's hodl our way out of it - and at least it is staking anyway

@rah

Weekend has arrived. TIme to chill and relax. Today is one of my checkpoints when i do a month on month comparison Will give you the percentages later

@rah

BabyRah has worn me out today. Just woken up from the mother of all naps. What's new?

@rah

Just moved some Cosmos after today's growth ready for the weekend dip and if it doesnt come it is staking in DAI anyway!

@rah

What a difference a month makes. 27th as well as EOY are my two check points because it is when my fiat interest is applied to my savings and I do my accounting anyway, August has been very nice so far

@rah

And so the weekend is upon us. Formula One fun tomorrow and maybe a bit of Chelsea Liverpool later. Some noise along the way too. Anybody doing anytning exciting

@rah

Everybody is nearly ready to go. Two weeks home alone. Time to finish some projects and make more noise :D

@rah

Is it just me or has everybody's portfolio been stagnant for a couple of days - so little movement one way or the other after the little dip and recovery earlier in the week

@rah

It was very kind of Vettel to stop and check on Norris. He wouldn't have done that a couple of years ago

@rah

Still absolutely nothing happening on the market today

@rah

WOW!!! Where did that come from.? Celebrating with Chelsea and my bro is a happy boy!

@rah

Oops it could all be going wrong for Chelsea but it is the right decision

@rah

lol I could have done better than that last Salah effort!!! Chelsea could hold out here they are looking increasingly comfortable

@rah

and there we go. A result that opens the door for both Manchester clubs a chance to take an early advantage in the race for the Premiership

@rah

So tonight with MamaRah and BabyRah away I am watching a film. I think the last time i did that was when they were away and i had a Hobbit day. Knowing with Nicolas Cage, never seen it before. About halfway though still undecided.

@rah

Knowing is not the greatest film I have ever seen. Will notch it down as seen but won't be rushing to watch it again. Not a convincing apocalypse

@rah

Can't believe I had a chance to sleep in this morning and I am already awake. I guess BabyRah has changed my body clock. At least I slept through. Highlight of the day is the Belgian Grand Prix. How is your Sunday looking? Restful I hope.

@rah

With Russell directly behind him and the WIlliams not known for pace and reliability it really is in Max's hands today. The only scenarios where it can't be is a Max mistake or if Lewis gets in front of Russell within the first lap. Even if there is carnage on the first lap Max should be ahead of the melee. My prediction is (assuming they all survive the first lap) 1 Max 2 Lewis 3 Seb (I think his Aston Martin might surprise a few) If not Seb it Perez should make it. Sorry…

@rah

Time for another True or False. When I was at school I was always a bit of a fighter - I am pleased to say I grew out of it and am much calmer now. So with this in mind which of the following two statements about me are true. As always the one that is untrue is almost true. 1) I had a problem with a gang of 5 people from another school when I was about 16 so I tracked them down one by one and resolved it without actually having to fight them. 2) When i was 12 I shocked a boy…

@rah

Was it just me or did Noise go down for a while there?

@rah

Connected with my most recent Renoise, just an explanation as to what is going on where I live. Based on something I have just posted A couple of years ago the ruling party (PiS) took over the national broadcaster (TVP) to the extent that it is now a state propaganda channel. Now they have attacked the free media by going for TVN who are fairly anti-PiS. The issue they found with TVN is that it is majority owned by the American Discovery Network and they believe Polish news…

@rah

In a Galaxy not so far away... Polish Democracy is in a critical condition. A couple of years ago the ruling party (PiS) took over the national broadcaster (TVP) to the extent that it is now a state propaganda channel. Now they have attacked the free media by going for TVN who are fairly anti-PiS. The issue they found with TVN is that it is majority owned by the American Discovery Network and they believe Polish news should be broadcast by Polish owners. This has…

@rah

According to Sky News an automated Tesla has crashed into a police car in Florida. Still someway to go with the software methinks.

@rah

So here are my answers to my last TRUE / FALSE (It is a bit long but you will get some idea of the story telling style I use in my novel writing :D) 1 TRUE. This was a strange one. This gang had been bothering me for several weeks and there were two alphas and three weaker members. The three weaker ones all lived quite near me and one of them even lived about four houses from me. There was no way I could take on five, but as always the weaker ones are really vulnerable if…

@rah

Just seen a longer clip, he lost traction and off he went. I mentioned earlier that Perez is prone to mistakes but I didnt expect it to be so prophetic,. I think the weather might swing it back in Lewis' favour despite what i wrote earlier - just so long as he gets in front of Russell quickly i am expecting carnage on the openning lap sadly. I just hope whatever thrills and spills that everybody remains safe and unhurt

@rah

Race hasn't even begun and plenty of Noise already! Going to be an eventful afternoon methinks!

@rah

Weather is getting worse. Seems they are going to try to get started before it all comes in.. Maybe the weather could work in Russell's favour

@rah

Perez - might be back in although I suspect not. Maybe they should let him back in but with a back of grid start?

@rah

there you go BitCoin Baby - Perez could be back - pit lane start for him. I personally would endorse this as a positive thing.

@rah

I am beginning to wonder if the race will actually be called off?

@rah

Look at that Medicar go. Much faster than last time it was out!

@rah

Finally - 10 minutes to go!

@rah

well thats almost four hours of my life that i wont get back. At least there was some Noise

@rah

I'm a 10th of the way to my second noise bch already. slightly behind tjough on my target to achieve it in 100 days purely from noise and associated celsius rewards

@rah

managed to write 300 words in the midst of the day. not a lot but more than I've managed recently

@rah

Woke up this morning to find both my portfolio up and another freebie on Coinbase Earn. $3 of Rally is now available after completing three quiz questions. :D

@rah

Made a withdrawal today from Cointiply and was pleased to see that they now support DASH and LiteCoin as well as BitCoin and Doge I don't know how long this has been the case but it has been my first withdrawal since June.

@rah

It is hard to believe it but BabyRah is now 20 weeks old. Every day feels like an eternity - especially when he is awake - but paradoxically the time goes so fast. It won't be long before he's seen his first six months.

@rah

Just done my favourite party trick again and leveraged some growth in both my DAI and Cosmos thanks to the dipping price :D

@rah

Going to do the calcs later but I am pretty sure once my Celsius Rewards come in my portfolio will hit a new ATH Happy days.

@rah

I am enjoying the surge in NuCypher. it is one of the alts I nvested in about midway through the big dip. It only needs to reach about 70% of its ATH for me to make a nice healthy profit. It's not there yet but moving nicely in the right direction. It is one of two that i am watching steadily claw its way back.

@rah

Gotta love Celsius - that's another easy $4 passive income predominantly on StableCoin but with some other holdings including playing BitCoin long

@rah

1350 words written today. Getting some momentum back i am pleased to say and those three remaining gaps are getting smaller. Maybe the first draft will be finished by the end of the week with MamaRah and BabyRah being away

@rah

So tonight's choice of film while MamaRah and BabyRah are way is Jason and the Argunauts (1963) with classic stop motion monsters which just about still hold up (esp the Skeletons) - sometimes old school is better than CGI which is just too perfect. Not everybody's thing, but I will enjoy!

@rah

And so the film is done and so am I. Early start in the morning and a long morning ahead including my first face to face with a client since 11th Marc h last year. I have another one later in the week but then there is a week before BabyRah gets back just in case. Not sure how protected he is so precautions must be taken This week is very much an exception, but human contact outside our household .... :D

@rah

And so today is the day when I finally meet with a client face to face for the first time in a year and a half. As I said last night there are two possible meetings this week, but it is very much this week only for now.

@rah

One session done, three more to go including the face to face and then I hope to get back into some writing. Let's see how much I can achieve today :D

@rah

And so in a few minutes I am going out to face to face with a client for the first time in a year and a half and to be honest feeling a bit anxious despite insisting on some safeguards which she also agreed to. Let's see how it works out.

@rah

Face to face session went relatively well - what I mean by that is the client was great, but people... Anyhow home and so far unscathed and it was a refreshing change to actually meet a client again after so long!

@rah

Portfolio has just hit a new ATH as the alts I am backing are really beginning to revive. Happy days

@rah

Another chapter finished - exactly 1999 words today So to do is one more chapter the afterward to bring the work to an end and then the editing and checking/proofing begins.

@rah

Was going to watch another film tonight, but time escaped when I was writing so now just watching some football bloopers. Football's Funniest moments 2020/21
