6 am
I woke up.

Posted twice on Weku, slow connection but I finally managed.

First post I read was an entry Looking back/Look forward @olivia07. The contest ends in a few hours.

Bus-kid asks if it is allowed to eat some cornflakes with milk and if I like some tea. No tea for me now.

Face is painful.

Whatsapp with eldest about grandson not talking or badly pronouncing words. Husband has 80 mg prednisone has Tolosa Hunt one out of a million has it. Only slow progress. The village is back in 1627. Dressed up, fights etc. Bad luck for me I cannot be there.

Answered some replies via @partiko. Keep my fingers crossed they will be posted. Steemit.com cannot be loaded plus never shows if I am mentioned.

Dpoll - done
@fredkese asks if you heard about "Lilith".

8:24 am
Scales and tea and next I will post something before the connection totally leaves me.

9:13 am
I lost some weight.

Replied more comments.

How to make good content out of poetry?

9:35 am
Drank my tea, youngest makes more.
Posted How to hang in. Weku first. Cannot load SteemCoinpan.

Steemreply still does not work.

Update @team-ccc on Discord. SP is needed for a higher upvote. Suggestion: team runs a contest too.

Generally speaking does it benefit to delegate SP to Steemians?
@fitinfun, @macoolette? Who knows the answer?

Good thing Steemians are so lazy, more chance for me. Btw the links shared are good content. 👍😁.

Bus-kid did the laundry (sport clothes) youngest is feeding the wolves. Both have to mow the lawn too. I will try if the sun is down or partly down to avoid worse allergies.

Posted Tip 26: Thursday Contests & Giveaways.

@thereikiforest sent Sending Reiki Healing Love 💕💕💕
I hope you feel better soon 🙏 I really appreciate it.

I could use some Reiki. Long time ago I learned and practised it. It worked for my (at that time) the youngest. Never for me. I seem to consume a lot of energy (we did with a group receiving in turn). I decided to use it for animals only. More likely I use my own energy.

12:08 pm
Posted Anouncement WINNERS Contest Looking back/Look forward Mirando hacia atrás/ mirando hacia adelante contest #CCC 2.18 🎈🎶💕🎈.

We had two winners.

12:50 pm
Wrote my Wednesday walk.

Time to make some food. We did not eat yet except for the bus-kid.

2:20 pm
Bus-kid complains about the grasstrimmer. No sign of the youngest. It has to do it with the lawn mower (the one that loses the wheels every with every step you take with some bad luck. Lately it did not happen.)

I joined @phortun's photocontest plus
It is Saturday and #caturday so I shared some #catsofsteemit. Posted with @appics see here. I also made a #dailypetphotography out of it.

Joined @qurator's Toss up Thursday with the "Thursday Contests & Giveaways".

The children do great work outside, mow better as I do.
The youngest is lucky. Only one wheel came off once.
The bus-kid complains about its back and is sneezing.
As soon as I set one foot outside my eyes start tearing. The window is open, at least some warmth from outside comes inside now.

If I am in pain I find it hard to drink. Still, need to drink 2 liters water.

4:30 pm
Never heard of "Bellflowers". With over 500 species they should be as famous as the dandelion. Posted Glockenblumen?.

6:57 pm
I cooked and we ate.

I posted Know what you eat on a day. My entry to Tasty Tuesday.

WordPress time.

Worked further on my 140 words poem in Dutch. I wrote three earlier parts about an elderly couple. I join two writing challenges with it. Still one picture I need to make up a story about, might be I write an extra 140 words story. The challenge is for the month October.

8:38 pm
I posted Doordraven on WordPress and Yoo.rs first.

Sorry, @fitinfun I am the one for the (short) stories and tales and I cannot only post what might make an income.

I told her today and also that if my earnings are too low I have to quit with hosting contests.

This was my last post of the day. I hope to be on Yoo.rs soon again. I want to read, comment, answer and engage to the sweet and creative people there. Hope to have some better internet soon or able to go out and sit at the library or at the bank or supermarkt.

My eldest sent links of the party going on in her village. 1627 alive. Hope to see the YouTube videos too.

Use Partiko

How about giving it a try yourself?
With my lousy, unstable connection it is the only app that still works most of the times. I can post with it and the notifications show an overview with who voted, commented and mentioned you.
You earn points if you use it for posting, commenting and upvoting (partiko points can be traded into Steem).
There are extra points if you watch a commercial of a few seconds.

With Partiko you can edit each post and if you edit it you can add as many tags as you like.
Try it. There is nothing to lose

Do you like photography?

Appics is a great app. Go to appics.com and ask to be an 'early bird'.
Please, add text to your pictures. A good post has text no matter if it is a meme, photo, drawing, actifit report, etc. With Appics you can comment and upvote and earn token too.

Posting with apps

If you use @actifit, @partiko or @appics to post you earn too.
@actifit will reward you if you did 5000 steps at least (reward and upvote).
@partiko gives you 30 points for posting.
@appics has it's own token too.
There are more apps that will reward you if you use them.

More tips you can find at @wakeupkitty.pal.

Use them to grow especially if your connection is fine and not as slow as mine.

Each day I write a diary #forthechildren.

If I can I use SteemCoinpan for posting
Note: SteemCoinpan wants you to use three tags!

1. sct
2. sct-en (or one of the other languages)
3. sct-diary or an other subject.
   Posting via SteemCoinpan saves me the first tag plus I can use more tags. Your post will automatically show up on Steemit.com
