It has been a very busy week these past few days and I hadn't have the time and energy to do much Steeming lately. Hopefully these coming days I will be more active in the platform. For most part of the week I have been really busy doing my online work of monitoring cryptocurrency news, updates and investments. I do this almost 24/7 daily and I think it is taking its toll to my body I have have been experiencing chronic dizziness and body aches especially my back. Some online friends told me that maybe it is my long hours in front of the computer and lack of sleep is causing it. I was afraid to get sick or aggravate my health condition therefore I started to go to sleep earlier or if time permits get some power nap during the day. It helped somewhat as my chronic dizziness have subsided somewhat, however my back still hurts specially the lower back.
I think it is the bed I am using, well it is not much of a bed anyway. The bed I use are just a two, two inch foam that I arrange on top of each other and cover with be linens. I have been using these two foams for quite some time now and I have been reluctant to change them due to financial consideration and sentimental value as these foams were one of the first things I bought when I ran away from home. Honestly, the foams due to its old age is not functioning properly as I can now feel the hard concrete floor when I sleep. Not only do I have to deal with the very hot weather here I need to deal with a very uncomfortable bed which is not allowing me to have a good night sleep. There was even a time that I found it hard to get up from bed due to back pains. I came to the conclusion that I needed a better bed and also decided to buy myself air conditioning as the heat in the Philippines is becoming unbearable.
I was supposed to buy better video and audio recording equipment but decided to buy a bed, cabinet and linoleum to improve my living condition in my apartment (for the time being I delayed purchasing air conditioning as it cost a lot of money and an additional expense). Most of the budget that I used to buy those stuff came from my Steemit blog-post earnings with sir 
I would have saved up enough to buy myself those things through other means but with additional income coming from Steem it has accelerated the process of achieving this. Soon I would be able to buy myself an Air conditioner and Refrigerator. I think I can save money if I will be able to buy in bulk food that I can store in the ref rather than always buying outside or buying in small quantities in small stores located in the area since they usually charge 15-40% more. It will also enable me to stop buying ice cubes that I am not sure that are clean. Sediments are left in my water container whenever the ice cube melts. I wonder where do they get the water for the ice cubes. Air conditioners are cost centers but I think it will cost me more if I get sick because of heat or Pneumonia. I always find my back soaked with sweet whenever I wake up due to the heat and humidity.
Mosquitoes and other insects posses additional problems also. I think I need ask to someone to install screens on the the windows.I wouldn't want to experience getting dengue or other deceases coming from mosquito bites. If the market cooperates I would be able to have those "upgrades" soon. Maybe a better and cheaper option now is using mosquito nets or mosquito repellent smoke as I just remembered I need to pay internet, rent, water and electricity oh my I hope that market recovers soon so that I can sell of my cryptocurrency trading positions.
That is all for now fellow uloggers and steemians. I hope you didn't get too bored with my ulog.
