Am I Happy?
Yes, Friends. I am happy. Why are you happy Francis?
Well, I was happy because I finished a good trade yesterday.
What will I do today?
But, in all of our lives. A little rain will fall. Even some dollars fly away.
Remember the "green iron horse?" He wanted his "knees" replaced. lol
In case you were wondering. It makes steering him possible. And that is important.
Left side first
Now the right side.
Now he is ready to go. But, he took my all of my trading money. Ugh
To repair him took $146 dollars. Ugh again.
Maybe I can find a good trade today to help me with the cost of this "green monster." Ha
If I am complaining about the little green monster. What if I had to feed and repair this giant green monster? Yikes
The little "Completed Orders" page looks rather puny, compared to the cost of the "giant green monster" above.
Let us look at the page anyway. The little gain of $100 dollars, less the commission, seems like child's play.
So friends, you can see the little bit of trading success isn't much to get excited about.
But, we take small steps as we move along in our trading.
The "homesteading" I do doesn't cost as much as what the "giant green monster" requires.
So I am watching like a hawk at the market, before I put the repaired "iron horse" into action today.
Who know what I might find? Ha
If I had a tractor like the one shown below. I could "really" get some work done. Ha
Thank you for following along with me in my trading and homesteading.
Without my trading. My homesteading slows down to a crawl.
Wish me good luck in my trading today.
If you have any questions. You can ask them in the comment section below.

Yes. This is why we call fiat, "currency" because it's been fabricated to flow out out of your pocket and into someone else's pocket. So we can fixate on not having enough or we can change our thinking and realize that we have the power to attract more to us by the actions that we choose...like trading, crypto-coins, precious metals and blogging on Steemit. ;)
@rebeccaryan
The currency we need to do most anything worthwhile. Can be tough to get.
You put it perfectly.Out of our pocket. And into someone else's pocket.
But, that is what we do. We learn to adjust accordingly.
I wanted to do "homesteading" today. So my trading suffered. Ugh
Oh, well. Another day to try. If I had sacrificed the whole day.
I would have had a good trade. I couldn't do that though.
Thank you and knarly327 for your upvotes. It is such a delight to come in
from the field and see the upvotes and the value.
Makes the pain of no trade a little easier to bear. Ha
Francis
It is nice to be a way and then come back to a a buck or two and a friendly message. It is hard to balance what "needs" to be done and what you really want to do. I struggle with this myself, almost every day it seems. :)
replacing the knees on the iron horse shouldn't have been that expensive. glad your training went well thanks for sharing with us
Oh! Francis , I wish You good luck not only today. Let it makes You happy. It's nice to know. Iron horse requires investment. What can you do? It is also important to You. A successful trade will cover all Your expenses. I wish You much success. Have a good day!

If I had one like that last pic I could make short work on cleaning up the "farm". Might be a little to much though.
Good work Francis!!!
@alextuteu
Thank you for your kind comment. I need encouragement as we all do.
Francis
The iron-green horse needs more investment
You are very successful in this work
