May 16, 20: AutomaticWin, TripleTen, Washer Teardown Begins, and Games

Up at six today, but the Fitbit was acting up and so it only registered like four hours of sleep, which I’m sure isn’t true. I do think I was a bit short, though, but I didn’t crash in the afternoon.

Did the usual morning routine and finally got fed up with waiting for the STEEM price to go up relative to bitcoin. I’ve been sitting for three weeks, almost four and there hasn’t been any significant moves. With the bitcoin golden cross coming (hopefully), I figured I’d just go into BTC and maybe catch some gains there.

Sold out all of the STEEM I had on the exchange around 1865 Satoshis. Got another powerdown coming tomorrow, so we’ll see if the rate gets any better.

I hadn’t been out the past two days, so I decided to give it a go and got out early. Was early enough to score another #AutomaticWin and then finish up the #TripleTen at home. 😄

Warming up somewhat today, but cloudy and rainy still.

There were a lot of squirrels out today. This guy just sort of checked us out as we passed.

There was a bush along the sidewalk just chalk full of these lovely flowers. I don’t think they’d quite woken up for the day yet, though.

We did a loop past the lake. For many years we’ve had a pair of swans living here. Apparently, they were chatting down in Florida about how they have this whole lake to themselves and the neighbors overheard. Now we have nine of them!!!

Geeses still hanging out. Was time for some swimming lessons.

We saw two different little pitch black squirrels.

And, of course, what’s any good walk without a “Waaazzaaaap?!” from Mr. Chubbles? 😝

The flowers have started to fall off this tree turning the ground an amazing pink!

Kitty has been bringing us some treats.

I edited this one to save you the gruesome.

In the afternoon I did some chores and then started tearing down the washer. I got the electronical stuff off and some of the screws out of the casing, but I got stuck trying to get the top off. I think I have to flip it over and go at it from the bottom.

I’ve got a ways to go with it, but some of the wiring is cleaned up and ready to be stripped (yummy solid bare bright for sure).

In the evening we had leftovers for dinner and watched some Stargate.

My dCity is still cruisin’ with no crime today. I did finally sell out my STEEM, so I should have some more liquid here soon, but I haven’t bought the HIVE yet.

For whatever it might be worth at this point, I completed my Holybread tasks today! 😁

Still holding right about the same ranking. I fell back into the nineties a bit, but back into the high eighties again.

For my Splinterlands quest today I had five wins with Fire splinter. Once again, it didn’t take me too long, but that cut me a little short on DEC for potions.
