AND I've just logged onto Twitter for the first time in months... to join into the #HiveChat for the first time ever with thanks to @jeanlucsr for mentioning it tonight in his blog, with the instructions on how to get there and what to do, so thank you @jeanlucsr! 😀

And OMG what a storm that was (to me anyway...). It's been so long since I've been on Twitter, **even Twitter told me AND asked me if I wanted a refresher**...I probably should have done it too...I almost felt like I was speeding down a freeway - the wrong way!🙃

BUT, I am ALIVE! Alive and well (still feeling a bit broken from soccer the other day...) but I am alive on the #HiveBlockchain in the #IAmAliveChallenge and am now deep in thought after the 5 questions that were asked during the #HiveChat on #Twitter hosted by   @BreugelMarike, @ummaizum, @gastontrussi, @stellabelle, @HivePeople, @HiveBlogShare, @TraciYorkWriter, @HiveHustlers





And thank you to @ErikGussafson known far and wide as @Flaxz in #HiveBlockChain who created the #IamAliveChallenge and does an incredible amount of work behind the scenes to help, support us all and grow our global family of #Hiveans 😘

Now, if you want to know more about this warm and compassionate community then read more here https://peakd.com/hive-100421/@flaxz/glmrrjya and you're welcome to join in and share your stories, fears, dreams, successes and failures with all of us.😊

Now from a response From @justclickindiva about the CookBook Contest @theterminal, ***as I mentioned on my blog last night,The Cookbook Contest by The Terminal is monthly. Each month there is a different category of dishes. So wait until the September contest post is published to see which 3 categories of food to enter.***

***Thanks for your interest. It's a fun and easy contest. Glad you've decided to join. See you in September***

Just a pic that I took today on a walk in the sun...😃

So, some things about some different things today that I have discovered on the #Hive in #Peakd in the #IAmEngagedChallenge, not the usual, but something different and valuable too.

So firstly there's the tutorial by @jeanlucsr ***Get Ready To Tweet! #HiveChat FAQ & Tutorial*** https://peakd.com/hive/@jeanlucsr/get-ready-to-tweet-hivechat-faq-and-tutorial And if he hadn't included this link in his own blog, I would have never known that it was on and how to get there.  

**So lucky I watched his video about 30 minutes before it started (because I forgot my password to twitter it's been that long...🤣)**


And then Somewhere along the line I found a link to #UpvoteBank @UpvoteBank that ***Get upvotes up to 5-10 times your own vote value for "free"*** here https://peakd.com/@upvotebank

And then @hivebuzz ***The Customization Guide for the HiveBuzz store*** ***Did you know that you can fully personalize your items on the HiveBuzz store? *** And No I didn't so I'm definitely going to look into this further! https://peakd.com/hivebuzz/@hivebuzz/customization-guide

And then still on the theme on the Hive Blockchain itself and from the #LeoFinance Community and following on from the conversation on the #Twitter #HiveChat tonight, I found this great article from @uyobong : ***Hiring and Keeping 'Em on Hive Blockchain and Communities*** which you can read here https://peakd.com/hive-167922/@uyobong/hiring-and-keeping-em-on-hive-blockchain-and-communities which is a great onboarding initiative for the unemployed of Nigeria.

And then for those wanting an update on the Crypto market, @macedarko has given us the ***Crypto market review - vol.002 - 18.08.2020*** here https://peakd.com/hive-167922/@macedarko/crypto-market-review-vol-002-18-08-2020

So, as alway, this is an original photo that I took from my balcony just the other day and I'm going to leave you with that sunset in mind and say good night and we'll see you all tomorrow.

In the mean time, stay safe, be well and stay alive! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
And don't forget to be as good to Mother Earth and all of her amazing animals as you would to your family and friends. 😀
