Goals:


Encourage each other. Kindness. Community Building. Welcoming all Steemians with no Class Distinction. Friendship. Relationship Building. Food. Fun. Music. Campfire Shenanigans.

Visit my Page Fridays through Sunday and poke around, chat with people, have fun!!

What I'm sharing in replies on Steemit so it does not offend or spam people

Link Dropping Diverting People Elsewhere:

--

Please do not drop links to blog posts at the fire diverting people away from the purpose here - gathering people in one place, this is not a post promotion place just because it is a high engagement post.

--

The last while of everyone dropping links on the #SteemitCampFire - is getting a bit much. I do not mind the odd one, but this kinda can deflect the purpose here - gathering people in one place and not too much diversion elsewhere.

Hope you are not upset but it has been worsening. We all do it from time to time, but a high engagement post is more prone to this. Please keep this in mind.

Hello lovely people! How’s your weekend going so far?

Last night I started feeling a little under the weather, so I fell asleep before this post went live and didn’t have a chance to say hi. I just woke up (feeling much better, by the way!) and rushing to introduce myself to the newcomers here and say hi to my good old friends and our wonderful host, Barry.

Great to see the coffee cooking over the fire. I’ll grab one right away.

Yesterday one of my students stayed after classes and asked my help to get her set with crypto. So we went through the standard regiment: register on Coinbase, download JAXX, buy some BLX on ICONOMI, and order TenX card. It was so fun! We also talked about worthless fiat money, the great money pyramid (aka the modern monetary system run by central banks), the ‘legal mafia’ (aka private banks). It was so fun to talk about those things!!

Another fun thing was that my colleagues kept dropping by, to ask this or that, and every time I was like: “Oh, and he’s into crypto too! Ah, and she owns Bitcoin and Ether too!”. It was very encouraging for my student to see that many of the teachers walked the talk we were talking.

Soon I’ll be heading out to eat soup and freshly-baked sourdough bread at my favourite vegetarian organic café in town. My friend is coming by (he's saving his money in crypto too). He’s going to interview me about Esperanto for his school essay. It will be fun to see him, talk about the international language, while enjoying some delicious locally-made food!

(and, Barry, you will be happy to hear that I had PIZZA for dinner yesterday, haha!) :D

How can I not UV that epic reply????????

Wow, that is awesome.

I love reading your replies man LOL.

I am so glad for your help on here and in the world doing what you do..... YOU deserve a good pizza sometimes!!!!

I'm glad you are feeling better Oleg. I've only been here on Steemit just under a year and finally I am getting curious about crypto. I know I am in the right place here with you and Barry :)

Yes, you are one of the people on Steemit I’ve been following since the very beginning of my own journey here. :)) I tried to support you through some tough time you had in that period (leaving your abusive husband, becoming a single independent mom, and facing the challenges of raising your beautiful children on your own).

If I can help you with making your first steps in the world of cryptocurrencies, please let me know. I will be happy to help. We can do a Skype session and I’ll answer all your questions and give you practical tips for where to start.

Good luck!! hugs

Hi Oleg that sounds great. I am very green when it comes to crypto, maybe next week some time after I got all these court shenanigans out the way. I really appreciated your support and others at that crucial decision time of my life. It helped me beyond words and kept me going <3

This week's post going up in a couple mins!!!

We will help you with Crypto, it is good you came around, you are surrounded by it here HH.

LOL

Full power UV on your latest post to help your contest buddy!!

Thank you, mate! Would you like to participate in it yourself? You only need to register for the season – the rest of the game plays automatically, without your direct involvement. What do you say? :)

Here is some of the water warming for all your coffees this weekend!!!!

I'm in Montreal this weekend. Had a great day sightseeing, I even tried the zip line. It's an amazing city!

You are 6 hrs dead east of me on the 401 man.

I was at the last ever Expos game there.

Thanks for stopping by the #SteemitCampfire man..... enjoy your time in #Canadastan!

Try to act uninformed or the Thought Police will get ya --- and they will not le me bail you out, they do not like informed people you know LOL

#CryptoBeagle

I visited Montréal in the end of 2005, when the Canadian government fell (one of those times, at least). I fell too – in love with the city. I’ve been dreaming about returning to Montréal ever since!

these always make me want to go camping lol

…and, until you do, Barry’s #SteemitCampFire will keep you warm! ;)

That is a beauty fire, you must carry a 50x50 tarp around with you, with all the rain you get there

LOL

This week's post going up in a couple mins DIV!!!

Happy Weekend, @barrydutton and everyone else! I'm glad we got our first rain since the end of June -- almost a tenth-inch, lol! And it came with cooler tempertures, so that campfire actually looks nice. I wouldn't be saying that if we still had all the smoke around from the wildfires all around! The smoke will be back after this weekend, but in the meantime, I'm breathing deep. I hope all the folks in Florida and on the Irma track stay safe!

Thanks for dropping in again -- we are all hoping the best --- these storms / fires that decimate places around the same time every year / same geographies just grieve me to no end.

This week's post going up in a couple mins HH!!!

I hope the fires are being maintained..... but in the news I see this week again, not looking great.

Boredom to death, week went with sorrows and sadness. Could not achieve what i planed. As i am a teacher, living in the rural part of Sindh. I am planning to visit my home this weekend after the time span of two months as it is at the distance of 150 km from my current location that is Hyderabad. You are really hard worker, sir. You are going to be my inspiration on Steemit family. What else should i declare? i have nothing to say right now. Stay shining!

I am a teacher too, friend! Why all the sorrow and sadness? Did something bad happen? Are you excited about visiting your home? I hope your trip goes well and you enjoy it. And hopefully it’ll help dispell the boredom, sadness and sorrow that plagued you this past week.

Dear friend! thank you so much for such consoling words to me @oleg326756. Everything is fine now. Yeah, i am at home after long time and i guess this is only the thing which delight me as i was much tired of workload at my place and was feeling kind of professional jealousy at work place.

Awesome reply my friend!

Drop back and stay around the fire this weekend when you have time!

Tell us what else is going on!

Thanks for the kind words.

Sure sir, i am here this week too and eager to go through your other latest posts. @barrydutton i thank you for the care and respect you gave to me. This week i am going to have a very pleasant life as i am with family and quite free to spend time with my Steemit Family.

Great reply here!!! UV / Upvoted and thanks for your nice comments here !!

This week's post going up in a couple mins!!!

Mmmm... Morning coffee 'round the campfire... Well, that is what it SMELLS like at my house today at least! The fires are still no where near me, but the smoke is just terrible. I quit smoking cigarettes last spring, it is tempting to light one now for a breath of fresh air! Hope you all are having a lovely weekend thus far!

Ew, yuck LOL.

I know -- the fires and floods and stuff grieves me for humanity, honestly

Been an interesting and busy week. Have been given a court date for child arrangements after a long wait, so that has been playing on my mind a lot and deciding what is best for the children. I'm not going to completely shut the doors, as everyone has the capacity to change. But its not going to be the news my ex husband wants to hear and I pray it doesn't push him over the precipice he is walking along at the moment. People tell me that is not my problem anymore, but you can't just switch it off.

Anyways my eldest daughter went back to school this week and my youngest starts school on Monday. They are going to be in classrooms that are next door to each other.

Hope everyone is well. Look forward to catching up more over the weekend.

Good luck with the upcoming court hearing, dear! Doing that’s best for the children is the best strategy indeed. So joyful to hear your kids are going to school! It warms up my teacher’s heart. :))

I was thinking of you this week, and hoping you would drop by.

I did not want to msg you on here and add to the business on hand you have.

So I am very glad you did this and gave us an update HH!!!

We are around all weekend for you.

(:

Thanks for dropping by again!

Hi Barry, please do message me. I always check my replies and am on Discord and Steemitchat.

As long as you are good, that is what matters!

I'm always good ;)

Thanks for sharing...

Did you want to stick around or ...........

No, I just want say "nice post" and go onto the next one. Communicating is hard. I just want free upvote and to be petted like a cat-- MEOW.

Amazing i leave u a up vote

Sweet, I hope you will drop in and out like others and hang out with us this wkend.

Um... I am in Idaho. My week has been so smoky I have not seen my mountains at all. Put out that fire for God's sake! LOL!
Cool idea!

LOL!!!!

That is funny but I relate and appreciate all those comments @fishyculture

Fun idea. I'll be checking back during the weekend.

Please do, people drop in and out all weekend til late Sunday nite usually!!!

I’m getting a little rain for the weekend. Some wind as well from some crazy called Irma.

Store shelves are empty, gas stations have cops and gas tankers have armed escorts. I was not aware I moved to another country overnight while sleeping lol. Thankfully I was more than ready for this. I did spend most of my week getting extra ready in case it was going be a cat5 for are area and helping some others that where not ready.

Thankful I have plans for events like this. So much price gouging at the store and gas stations. I’m as ready as I can be and can leave in under 5 minutes if told to do so. Doubtful I’ll need to be and it’s getting bit late for that as well. Weather will start to be too bad to want to travel in soon enough.

Like always hurricanes can’t make up their minds. Least the track has been shifting away from me every update. Granted I have 0 confidences in in weather reports lol. So many tracks it could go! I could swear somewhere they said we only have 90% chance of rain (wow buddy stop day time drinking at your place of work there weather man on tv!)

Have a great weekend everyone!

Stay safe @enjar. I am holding all those affected by the hurricane in my thoughts and prayers.

Thanks @hopehuggs, you have a safe and fun weekend!

You stay safe, @enjar! And please keep us updated, if you can. What's the situation now?

Major shift away from me even more. Looks like it’s going ride the other side of the coast. Currently its turning phase towards Florida. Longer it takes to turn better it is for me. Worse it is for others.

Hurricane also lost a fair bit of power. Not even expected to be a cat5 when it makes landfall over Florida. I’m Still within the path of uncertainty but should be less then 120mph even if it does come closer my way things where built to deal with that kind of wind. Yard and dead trees in area dealt with.

updatedmap.png

I’ll have watch some main steam news in a bit to see if they started to break down things even further then where I check online.

Looks like worst of it for me will be in the AM on Monday. Not sure when I’ll be powering down or when they will cut power.

I am personally glad for this update from you in every sense.

Glad you are still able to get a LOL, and that you are prepared. I have liked those updates from you all week

I’ve posted further updated down below to another comment.

Sorry for my lack of updates this week on this. Been busy dealing with some older folks who don’t deal with this kind of stress well.

My get out bag been all set since the moment they expected that thing to turn into a cat5. Early this week I was like “well then I’ll be getting pics of the eyewall” now it’s expected to be far enough away from me that might not be a thing.

I’ve been out during the middle of an eyewall before quite a few years back around when we moved to Florida.

Well, eyewall be looking for some updates here or on my page when you find time brother.

LOL

burn the pun!

NOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo.

Hey I mentioned you here just now.

I know, pretty spammy / link dropping of me, right??

LOL

I still go power for time being. Something like 3million without power atm.

Got all our food sorted out with 60lbs of ice just in case. Main refrigerators will only be opened once if we lose power for next 3 to 4 days, mini fridge will be opened for Mondays/Tuesdays food onward.
Cooler all short term todays need and drinks for next few days with ice till it melts for drinks!.

Now just waiting to lose power to move everything quickly to the cooler.

I hope everyone had a great and safe weekend. Sorry for my lack of involvement in this one.

Enjar, we are thinking of you man.

This week's post going up in a couple mins!!! If you find time or ISP access. Regardless, you are a part of this family time, my brother.
