First Monday of 2025 π Yup, it's back to the grind too. β It also happens to be Mom's birthday. π She would have been 82. I truly miss her a lot. It's the fourth birthday that she's no longer with us. πβ€οΈπ‘ I ordered flowers on her vault for the first Saturday memorial mass. I'm still waiting for the souvenir photos.
Hi-ho, hi-ho, off to work we go π It's a good thing I work from home. During the first half of the day, it's thankfully not as busy. I even managed to run to the bank for important transactions. However, it got busier in the afternoon. I actually finished work an hour later than usual. π No after work nap for me.
Thankfully, the day is over now. Need to reenergize for more work days in the week. π€£ One down, five to go. π

One of the things I love about the new year is the feeling that I can start anew. I do know now that it's not really new but a mere continuation. However, from time to time, I find myself needing to shift directions. Still, I believe in setting goals and working towards achieving as many as possible. I also believe in pausing and listening to my guide/s every so often. I guess it's a leap of faith to trust the universe and its process, but it has taken me this far, so I know that there is magic in believing. π

For the year, I move my tracking goals to Monday. I'm glad it's aligned with the newly launched @alive.chat challenge too. π
I have not set a limit on the above tokens, so I keep HODLing for the meantime. I do aim for 15K HP and 200 HBD. It's just a matter of how long I'll get there. π I'm also aiming for 50K staked AP.
Slow and steady growth is better than no growth at all. π
First work week has started. I'm counting down to the weekend once again. π I wonder if 2025 will pass as quickly as 2024. π€
I actively work on these affiliate sites daily. LL tops the list as it has paid me a few times already. I'm halfway to $6 now. The rest of the other sites (except TAB -- to drive traffic to my blog) are for promoting my LL coop link for extra earnings (tracked on Fridays).
Yay, I got it this far without falling asleep. π I better turn in early in case there are more busy days coming. It's a holiday in Manila this Thursday (Feast of the Black Nazarene). I hope that's a slow work day too. Well, have a fantastic week ahead. Nighty night from Manila. Ta-tah! π
