I am continuing with the tradition of powering up on the first of the month. I do not qualify for a prize in the contest, but I like the bee badges.
I had some real life bees to deal with today. Last year I put out some tubes for solo miner bees to lay their eggs in and they have now hatched out.
I was a bit lax in my care of the young bees. You are supposed to take the pupae out of the tubes and clean them. At least some did make it, but a few were dead in the box they were in. I shall try to do better next time. I am sure the bees find other places for their eggs around the garden. We try to make it wildlife friendly and I will build a new 'bug hotel' this year.
As for my power up, I used what HBD I had built up this month plus some game earnings. I managed to reach my target of 78,000 HP.
Powering up increases your influence on the Hive blockchain in terms of spreading rewards, choosing witnesses and selecting proposals to fund. Of course you can earn from it too. I know you can make a bit more from HBD interest, but I prefer to invest in HP.
That liquid HIVE is intended for other purposes. I do take some out now and then. This will go towards funding the comic by 
Happy #HPUD and Hive five!
