[Well, schnikies! Today is supposed to be the start of the first week of my break, but it’s shaping up to be just as stressful as last week. 😭 I got this post to do, of course, and then Mom needs a ride into the doctor’s office for an eye surgery and I have to kill time waiting for that and I have the Calculus grades to take care of today…throw on top that my watch self-destructed and my shoulders are up by my ears! 😱]

Actually got a pretty reasonable night’s sleep for once last night. 😁 Fell asleep watching Inhumans around nine thirty or so, was up around three and went out to the couch, and then got up about quarter to seven for a good eight and a half hours. 💪

Got on with the usual morning routine and I can’t really think of anything interesting to note other than cryptos trading sideways with a bearish bent (HIVE is crushingly low 😢), otherwise just all the normal stuff I do every morning. Got my post done and shared in time for the World Cup Final between Argentina and France.

Man! That was a fantastic game!!! 🥳 For the first half Argentina put on an absolute master class, amazing fooosball, fun to watch it…all kinds of amazing ball control and footwork and tons and tons of one-touch passes. Being up two nothing at the half it looked like the trophy was in the bag; however, France had different plans.

The second half started off kind of boring, looked like Argentina was going to start playing more defensively and just ride the game out but there was a foul, and a penalty shot, and a score! That breathed new life into the French side and within ninety seconds (and a gorgeous goal) they’d tied it up.

In extra time both teams came out swinging and Argentina took back the lead. Still, France equalized and it went to penalty shootout with Argentina beating the reigning champs!

The game was really long, though, so we were late getting going on the grocery shopping and headed out as soon as the game finished. We got our normal stuff as well as extra stuff for dinner tonight (and some yummy treats for Mom’s Christmas present) which got us closer to two hundred than not, got home, got everything put away, and Wenche started making the food. She also did a shitton of cleaning the last couple days, the house is looking a lot better than it did, I must admit, like she steam cleaned the kitchen floor…what a difference!

I had a little bit of time before I needed to get myself ready for dinner, so I busted out the Quest and ran a mission on Into the Radius. Died for the first time and was glad to see that they took my advice and the items don’t spawn all over the place around your body but are confined to the backpack (helped with recovery and things didn’t glitch into the ground). Kinda’ felt a bit guilty playing while Wenche did so much work, but I simply couldn’t resist the temptation.

Quit out and as I was starting to get myself ready for dinner (needed a shower, change into some nicer clothes, and get the present wrapped) my watch started going crazy. The screen started going all wonky and the button wouldn’t work and it just kept restarting itself over and over. 🤬😭

I tried to reset it and tried plugging it in and looked up troubleshooting, but the only way to reset it was using the button (which wasn’t working) and I didn’t have the time right then so I gave up on it and got ready for dinner.

We had pig-cakes and potatoes and cabbage for dinner (a traditional Norwegian Christmas meal), opened our presents (I got a hundred bucks and a comfy wearable blanket - plus the controller I already got the other day 😁). Wenche liked the earrings I got her…proper diamonds in sterling silver this time. 💎

After gifts we played a round of Rumikube and Wenche won this time. I got close, only had one tile left to play, but it was stuck. Was fun anyway and we cleaned up after Mom left and I went back to fussing about the watch.

Surprisingly, it came back (although the screen was unstable, only came on about half the time) and I got my steps finished…I did notice that the battery 🪫 had drained really quick, but left it for the night. Now it’s totally dead and the charger doesn’t register or anything.

I think that while I was cleaning up in the kitchen some water got inside and that was what was messing it up…but then it’s supposed to be waterproof, so what’s up with that? I looked and the glue around the screen was coming undone and the whole screen just popped off! 😱🤬🤬

That was a really expensive watch, and I quite liked it up until it just fell apart all of a sudden, but to be honest I’m pretty frustrated with FitBit…that’s my third watch in four years; the other two self-destructed after a year and this one after two, so I think I’m done with them.

Looking at Garmin, I think, but who’s really to say if the adhesive on those won’t wear out after a year or two? 🤷 Plus, it’s a whole new platform and I’ll lose all my stats and everything…I hate forced changes and unknowns like that (especially for a three hundred dollar watch), and I kind of would like just to replace the one I had, but there’s that whole definition of insanity thing. 😡

Other than that, I just got ready for bed and we put on some Superstore until a fairly late bedtime.

[Awesome! Got done with my post pretty early today, but now (again) PeakLock won’t let me login on Safari (technology screwing with me on all sides today 😭$…trying to edit in Keychain app is ridiculous and it jumps around so I don’t have any idea where the cursor is and it shrinks to the point that I can barely see where I’m typing. Can only see like two lines: 😡

I don’t know if they muted me or if dShitty is just that shitty, but I’m not even sure when the last time they paid out anything was…like a week or so ago?! Fuck this nonsense either way.

As is customary on Rising Star now that I have my Ego back to zero, I have drunks again. Whatevs, just going to keep doing missions and then rinse and repeat.

Well, my Splinterlands rental income was stable today (which is better than the precipitous decent of the last few days) at a whole dollar. Still a dollar more than I ever made from Rising Star or HashKings (both of which I’m actually negative, spent money on them and haven’t made any back at all), so that’s something.

Claimed my SPS interest and paid the rental fee as usual and staked up the rest. Still got another day or so before I save up to swap out again. I do have some liquid HIVE as well left from the last swap, so I’m alright for now.


HK:
Blah, blah, Kings! Blah blah new half assed shite to spend money on. Blah blah. Never mind the current (and old shite) don’t work…the iceberg is PC focused, right? I guess it’s Eradicator or something now…wait a month and that will get eradicated too.

GLX:
Still just been claiming and staking the GLX drop…it’s not bad in any way, I can’t complain about it, but like I said the seratonin bump has mostly worn off, so rather than going in several times a day it’s become one of the once a day morning routine things.

WOO:
I think the deal is that I claimed later yesterday morning and earlier this morning, so a bit of todays stake rewards were on yesterday’s to balance it out more or less around fifteen. Got about the same amount from airdrops but no mining rewards, as usual.
