Hi Hive account@indigoocean. This last week to 10 days has been like frying in a frying pan through this summer's heat wave here with temps averaging close to 100 degrees every day in a 140 yr. old stone house with no AC. I don't like AC, but came seriously close to buying it this week. Needless to say I've been sweating off layers of stuff to release... LOL

LOL on the first post too... If I hadn't have done so many posts after I began my power down I would have been fully powered down to only a few steem by now after 21 weeks or so. So given all I learned here and how the CEO of Steemit Inc. has been powering down so far half of his holdings in steem, albeit at least he stopped selling when so many of us steemians complained and is holding 2/3 of a million steem in his wallet, my faith in his faith in Steemit is at an all time low. So I am trying not to post at least until I complete the power down. It's also very frustrating that nearly 53 steem in SP will not even empower me to give a penny anymore to any post I like, such as yours. Obviously, steem being so close to dollar parity doesn't help either... Anyway, sorry to be a bit on the negative side. I'm just in a holding pattern sweating it out here. LOL
