Making sure people find my birthday party tonight.

Come on who here remembers these and knows what they were used for? 😂

My mother-in-law’s vitals have stabilized. It’s been a long 2 weeks since she was admitted to the ICU.

She is beating the odds so far, thanks primarily to her strength & resilience.

No doubt the positive energy coming at her every day is a difference maker.

She’s still unconscious with brief moments of awareness. Whether it’s from the family who are here every day talking to her positively, music that’s being created & played to her, nurses who are taking care of her with great empathy or Father Saunders from London who keeps coming to bless her and lift her spiritually, she can hear while in this state and it must be giving her strength.

Thanks to LukeDashJr for the connection to Father Saunders, I am not a super religious person - but the odds of her surviving 13 days ago when she entering the ICU were about 15%.

Luke told me not to get my hopes up, but the extreme unction could have healing powers. I’m sure it helped.

She is looking better but we are not out of the woods yet. It can take up to 50 days for stem cell engraftment. We are at day 26.

Yesterday she was moved to another room in the ICU, a healing room with a big window and a beautiful view.

This big red tree is what she has a view of when she opens her eyes once or twice a day. I’m sure that gives her hope.

Today when we were visiting, she had a squirrel perched right at the window watching over her.

We have faith she’s going to continue beating the odds as we continually see things move baby steps in the right direction.

It’s been a very rough month and especially the last 2 weeks have been taxing.

My 13 year old daughter is pretty sad at times, I try to keep her busy or let her go on screens and play games to distract her.

Any suggestions for how to help my daughter process this would be very much appreciated.

Most of us here are great at stacking sats already.

That's why my focus is on studying the art of humbleness now.

Sorry I’m late for the party!!

But I’m now here… thanks everyone for the warm welcome 🙏🏻♥️💫 nostr:note1elfpjf3wl7m0mx55f800c2zeapmuuvukgpvkvh25whs8khlgaumq40533y

Yeah, I totally understand that their business model is something that they can’t control.

The thing is that I can get 1% with my Gemini card (if not more). Fold dropping most rewards down to 0.5% renders their card worthless in many more situations than before.

Right now, I’m incentivized to restrict yet again its usage. I’ve been restricting its usage for a year. If this keeps going this way pretty soon usage will be a big old zero.

What’s it like being technical at the executive level of a company? Do you actually get to do shit? What makes one qualified to lead at that level in the technical space?

🤔

Fold rewards get slashed again.

When you thought you had reached the bottom…

Yes, again 🤦🏻‍♂️

Here’s the bread

We're still on track to hit 2 million Zaps in the near future. We should hit this milestone in about 3-4 days, depending on how hard you all Zap. #nostrville

They said it was their fiat institutional partners without naming anyone specifically.

Swan has and continues to do a lot for the community and some amazing people work there. But for the love of God, just take the L and pivot. Build your own back end. This is the third strike.

Good day #nostr fam

May this note infect you with some great vibes and energy for this spectacular weekend.

I slept 13 hours last night. So I am bright eyed, bushy tailed and ready to Rock & Roll.

What are you getting into this fine weekend?

I wanna know!

In the words of James Brown "Hit Me".
