Dear Daves, welcome to steemit! I am 
Each day holds a surprise. But only if we expect it can we see, hear, or feel it when it comes to us. Let's not be afraid to receive each day's surprise, whether it comes to us as sorrow or as joy It will open a new place in our hearts, a place where we can welcome new friends and celebrate more fully our shared humanity.
Henri Nouwen
Make new friends, but keep the old; Those are silver, these are gold.

My little suggestions
You can also get extra cash by these simple ways of mining Bitcoin which also helps me.
Mining bitcoin is becoming easier to the extent that people can mine up to 1 BTC per month just by using CryptoTab Browser in their computers 💻 Check it here and see it by yourself https://getcryptotab.com/2325885
Share CryptoTab Browser with your friends and get additional % from their BTC revenue.
As you invite friends, explain that they should regularly use the browser for visiting websites and social networks, watching online videos, etc. Mining speed is higher when the browser window is active.
The more profit they got, the more you earn!
Please help me also by download CryptoTab Browser here from my referral link. It’s promotes me as well.
