Good afternoon buzzers! What a slow week it's been! I've been loving it! This week saw the first 'week off' I've had this year, and by sloth, was it needed!
I've known about this week off for a few months now, and had started making some pencil-drawn plans for what I would do with it. Not exactly a 'Holiday' but a simple 'time off' work. Now I had intended on doing some travelling with my campervan, enjoying the finer places in Scotland. However, with war breaking out in Iran the other week, fuel prices went through the roof, and it didn't make sense to risk long journeys right now! So, there went the Pine Marten and Beaver hunting (for photos) expeditions! Those could have made for awesome Hive posts, alas, it wasn't to be!
Of course, this means I had more open time to get on Hive and find that enthusiasm I started the year with again, right? Right? Well, wrong. I've been slothing, HARD! And, I don't think I regret it, actually! I mean, what else do I need to do? Nothing really, yes, it can be a little boring doing the same things day in day out, but when I'm sitting on my ass without worry, do I really care?
Now, talking of Buzzing on Hive, we need to discuss #SlothlySavers. Why aren't you participating yet? What excuse could you possibly have, especially when being a sloth isn't one anymore!
It's Week 11 of SlothlySavers already, and we've just added more prizes! The @Tengolotodo bear decided to add more HiveSBI for the winners of each current prize, and I couldn't help but jump on the bandwagon, probably more so to give me the boost to get off my hammock and do something this week!
And, I'll be honest, I couldn't argue with his logic. Hive price is low, HiveSBI earns you more votes, and helps the winner get more votes, so it's a no-brainer! I might as well add more HiveSBI! I'm earning Hive from my posts (when I bother to make them) instead of HBD, so I should be turning that Hive into more efficient units for the long term! If Hive does have any long term potnetial, it makes sense to go hard when the price is down! Who knows what the future holds? Maybe Elon will buy Hive and take us to Mars or something?
Well, I forgot to do a SlothlySavers post last week, I was enjoying relaxing too much! Now, I've got most of my procrastination out of the way for the week, and I'm burning at both ends...I don't think that's the right saying, but my fingers are hot from typing, and I've been sitting a lot this week!
My last post saw me completing power-up day for week 9, so now we jump on to week 11!
- SlothlySavers 2026 Goals:
HP: 15,000 (4,800 HP Needed)
HBD Savings: 750 (220 HBD Needed)
- Last week's update - Week 9:
HP: 10,504 (4496 HP Required - 7% achieved)
HBD Savings: 546 (204 HBD Needed - 8% achieved)
- This Week's Update - Week 11:
HP: 10,541 (4459 HP Required - 8% achieved)
HBD Savings: 546 (204 HBD Needed - 8% achieved)
About 8% of my goals are complete, with just over 20% of the year already passed! I need to find some buzz if I'm going to make anything happen this year! Let's hope the further incentive to post from sharing more HiveSBI units makes my journey a little smoother! I need to find that social enthusiasm I had again! Sloth steps, it doesn't matter how slow we go, as long as we don't stop!
Until next time,
Sloth out!
