Hello, Steemians! It's my 40th birthday today, and I am happily setting up my new laptop, which was a birthday present! This is my first time posting on Steemit with A REAL LIVE KEYBOARD! It feels so good. ^_^ Man I love typing fast. I don't do so well with touchscreens.
you know it's mine when there are oak leaves all over it
So to celebrate my birthday, I'm running another contest! One winner will get four shares in @steembasicincome - one share for each decade I have been poking around in this body. ;)
I had to start decorating my new laptop right away. I need more stickers.
How To Win?
Share a photo of yourself hugging a tree in the comments! The photo can be old or new, but it has to be you hugging a tree.
The Winner
...will be chosen in a random fashion after this post pays out.
This Contest Has Been Sponsored By @lyndsaybowes - the ever generous Steemian! ^_^ Thanks, Lyndsay!
That's it - go hug a tree and I'll see you back here next week!

Thank you! Ahh, you got Partiko to work? It won't accept any of my keys!
💜
I used my active owner password and it worked. I love Partiko, it's so easy to use and looks great. Keep trying! I forgot the first time that you have to log in again to show your active password in your wallet on steemit. So I had copied the "hidden" password and it didn't work. Once I figured it out then it keeps me logged in, so thankfully I don't have to copy and paste it every time. 😊

Oh I'm so glad you said that, because I finally got it to work on like the tenth try, and then this morning it needed me to type in a key again (which I didn't have with me), and I was like, I'm not going to remember that password every time!! So after the second log in it should remember me?
It should. Mine hasn't asked me to sign in again. 🤷♀️

Thank you!
You're welcome.
Happy Birthday Dearling!
Thanks, Hickory! 💜
Happy b-earth-day, buddy!
And really cool about your new tech. It sure does make a difference getting your hands on a new device that lets you flow more with what you're doing.
It sure does! And thanks!
Happy, happy birthday @phoenixwren ... you share the same birth-date as a child of mine; and...almost the same age.
Here's a pic of a tree hugger, but it's 'not' me...I'm not looking to win this one; only participate ;>0
Thanks! And, cute! ;)
Happy beelated birdday @phoenixwren! 🌳🐝🐦 Hope you had a nice, relaxing celebration :)
Thank you! I played with my new 'puter all day. ^_^
Niceee! :)
happy birthday beautiful, welcome to the 40's I just turned 40 in March and so far it is a great age to be. Wishing you a year full of love, magic and adventures xxx
Thanks so much!
Happy Birthday! How does it feel to be the big 40? You know what they say, 40 is the new 20.
It doesn't feel monumental or old to me. ^_^ I don't have many of the "adult" markers - no spouse, house, or kids - so it all feels relative.
Yeah neither do I. Age is but a number so to me I really don't even celebrate my birthday anymore. It is just another day to me no different than any other day.
Happy birthday!!
Thank you!
Happy Birthday sweet 40 @phoenixwren. Will try to get a tree to hug :p
Thanks! I look forward to your photo! :)
@phoenixwren As promised, I tried to hug a tree but it turn out.. Gosh!! It soooo ugly.. so decide to give you this tree hug .. Tree in my condo area
and a big Hug
Happy Birthday Angel PHE! Make a contest, I hear you roar!! HAHA I never knew you were a Leo <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 D'awwww.... <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Congrats on the lappy, I sense some serious inspiration coming! Typing fast is key !! I could not function on a phone or tablet, I'd totally lose my flow.
I am so ready for inspiration! I have been in a slump. @.@
Thanks for the birthday wishes! When I was a kid I was the epitome of Leo-ness. My favorite Ninja Turtle was Leonardo because he's the leader, naturally. ;)
Happy bday!
