Weeklies are a little weak this week but nice to see the vote numbers over the week still growing. Thank you @fullcoverbetting for sponsoring the number 25 spot prize. I am actually surprised to see I made it back into the 20's I was shooting for the 30's this week.
There were a lot of post about the thinning of the comments and engagement this week, so of course I had to speak up on a few of them, I was intending to try to do better than my last couple of weeks, but was very surprised at making it into the 20's . @tattoodjay and @glenalbrethsen had a hand in the growth of my comments this week, and of course there was the curie I got, and that brought a few people to look at my post and leave comments which I responded to, so a good week.
I doubt this week will be that good, but it is nice to know that I can push myself to comment and move up the ladder when feeling good. A wonderful job on everyone's part.
Nice to see you hit a lucky number this week :)
Well done on the @curie, always a welcome vote when they pass by - good for the soul.
Have a good one!
Thank you it was a pretty full week.
Congrats for getting curied, @bashadow.
I can relate to how you feel.i had been ou of the top 20 for months... at one point I dropped to 65th in the list.
These last two weeks, I made it into the top 10 again. I had honestly given up on that ever happening again. It's nice to discover I still have it in me when I put my mind to it 😉

I will most likely fade back into the slightly lower ranges, but it was nice to see that if I pushed I could still climb the ladder. I still do not know who put me in for it, but it was and still is a nice surprise.
Hey, @bashadow.
Well, look at that. Top 25. The original Lucky No. 25 SBI prize. I'm pretty sure that's how @fullcoverbetting is calling these days with as many other SBI prizes there are.
Congratulations. Whatever part I played in your moving up the chart last week was fairly small, I'm sure, but I appreciate the mention, and I'm happy to help out.
And congratulations on the curie, too. All in all, I'd say a pretty good week. :)
I don't refer to the original part of it @glenalbrethsen :)
I am just happy that many did follow my example! That is the most important thing.
Glad I could give the EL from @abh12345 another dimension.
cheers,
Peter
Hey, @fullcoverbetting.
Okay, fine. I'll be the one who calls it the original. :)
So, how goes it these days? Keeping busy I presume between work and family and so forth? Maybe STEEM Monstering. Drugwarring perhaps? :)
Work and family keeps my busy offline.
On the steem blockchain drug wars is out, steemmonsters is absorbing less and less time but the gambling dapps are keeping me busy!
How are things with you?
Cheers,
Peter
Oh, the gambling dApps! Of course! Duh!
Out of sight out of mind I guess.
As for me, it's pretty much same old same old. March and April were decent months on the Steemit, Musing, dPoll ends of the platform, and so I guess I'll continue to do some of that.
My youngest son's wife is about due to have their baby (due date is Friday or so, I think), so that's bound to change some things, but we'll see how that goes as far as I'm concerned. It depends on how early this week the boy might be born. If it happens later in the week, I'm probably okay. :)
The past 2 months were also great for me. I does give me, maybe the false, feeling that I can become a dolphin this year!
Good luck with it! My dad says that being a granddad is much better than being a dad :)
Cheers,
Peter
I think you still have time to get to dolphin. I'm hoping for at least 1,500 SP over the next six to seven months, which is about what you need. There are definitely ways to make it happen, I believe.
re: granddad.
Well, the priorities change a little. You don't have nearly as much of the stress, but you get to have nearly all of the fun. :) Win, win. Of course, you're not involved in the decision making so much for the grandkids as you might feel the need to be.
I've enjoyed it so far, but I don't have one that's over two yet, so plenty of life still ahead (we all hope) to see how it goes. :)
