Happy Birthday!!! I baked you a cake! No, really! I did bake it! I know, I know, the pink and all, but, you are manly enough to carry it off. I am glad there are still people that are here for other than the free money. :)) You have done some good things with your time here and have kept your audience engaged and coming back for seconds and thirds. It's not an easy task juggling life some days, then add a 2,000-word post and, Sweet Jesus! My parking meter just expired.
I have said it before and I will say it again. I love it on Steemit Hive! At the start, it was about the rewards, but, not in the dollar amount, but, that I could even survive the scrutiny of someone voting on my post. Once I realized it was for me that I was posting, it became less stressful.
It is your whole attitude towards this that makes you successful and I see firsthand the good that you do. I also see how kindhearted you are, that is always a bonus. My birthday was two days ago and I never even thought to make a post. Next year, maybe. :))
Happy birthday, Galen! It is always interesting to glean little snippets of who you are and what you are about. I suppose it is what keeps us all coming back. :))
I want to put my face in that cake, I don't care what colour it is! 😁
Thanks for your kind words, so nice to hear. Attitude is everything, here and in real life, and whilst I don't always get that right, I try to do so. I'm just as fallible as the next person though. Work in progress.
Thank you for saying the kindhearted part, that actually means a lot that you think it, and care enough to say it. Again, I try to be my best version and it works sometimes. I'm glad people come back to my posts as that helps keep me around and interested too; Engagement is important in general, and certainly to me, so I do it, and appreciate it in return. Adding passion, personality and effort has been my mantra here and I'm pleased a few people respond.
Thanks for your message, for digital cake that I imagined putting my face into and for your support. I appreciate all three. (Cake the most.) 🤪
Oh but seriously, I really did bake that cake! It took six hours and I had two can make two different creams and then. I won't go into it it was a complicated cake and I made it because my daughter pointed it out in a magazine and wanted me to make it. It also has pecan brittle on the sides and I have never made anything like it. And while it doesn't look fancy oh, it had fancy putting together battles. LOL but hey, you're worth it! LOL
As always you're a hoot and a holler to interact with and any day that you are vertical , is a good enough reason to put your face in cake.
Oh but seriously, I do want my face in it! 😆
Even more seriously...You can invite me over for cake and coffee anytime! You make the cake, I'll bring the Aussie accent, irreverent dialogue and a few laughs.
Deal!! :))
You must be as mad as a cut snake agreeing to let me into your house! :)
Well, you had me at Aussie accent. ;)
Crikey! 😁
