Now I get to Work on Fixing up the Silverardo

 I've got to replace the lights on the dashboard and replace the handles on the back hatch. The first thing to do is to install the receiver hitch and the wiring for trailers. 

It'l keep me busy for a while. I'm tempted to keep the pickup and donate the Jeep to someone. I'll be able to tow a nice, small trailer with it. 

At least I now have options. A trailer is being sold on an online auction this Thursday. I might bid $500 for it. I doubt that I'll get it. 

I might do some classes today. I'll look for something to link to.



 
This is just for fun. Later

I Bought a Chevy pickup Last Night.

 I bought one of the pickups I bid on last week. At $500 I should be able to make a profit on it: if I don't just keep it for myself. Now I have to find cheap, used quarter panels and a cargo bed. Tomorrow I'll get it licensed and insured. I'll try to find parts online and over the phone. 

Next week I'll go to Carroll and I'll look into the salvage yard, there. Being a Chevy, I should have no trouble finding parts.

Bitcoin is fluctuating. I've got to learn not to watch it much. It's a waste of time. I might set up an automatic buy order every couple of weeks.

Bitcoin is Roaring Back

 Bitcoin is over $70,000 so it came back from $63,000 in a couple of days. I've got to hold on this time. 

Tomorrow I'll find out if I'll own a couple of pickups. I'm a bit fearful that I might get them both. If I do I'll put the best one up for sale and hang on to the worst one. I do hope I get one. We'll see. 

I have an online conference to go to today. Later

Opening the Bids is Tuesday night.

 They'll open the bids on the pickups next Tuesday at the City Council Meeting. It's at 6:00 P.M.

I'm anxious about spending money until I find out if I have to pay for a pickup or two. I'll cook my own meals until Tuesday night. I'm afraid that they were such pieces of shit trucks that no one else will want them. At $500 apiece I might have overbid. 

On the good news side: I got the fingerprint reader working on the old computer. That's something. I think I'll get rid of the new computer. It's crap anyhow. 

I think I'll link Johnny Bravo, tonight.

I bid on a couple of Pickups and now I'm afraid I might get them, Both

 I put a couple of sealed bid offers on two pickups (owned by the city) and now I'm worried that I might get them both. If I get both of them I'll have to sell some Bitcoin. And I don't want to. I think someone will outbid me. 

I need to do more homework for National Able. I find it hard to find time and the discipline to do it. I just have to grab an hour or two when I can do it. Well I think I'll go online and do some homework. Later.

Crypto waivered so I fixed a couple of Laptops

 I worked mainly on my new (old) computer today. It's new to me but old in years. Its biggest problem was a dead AC adapter. I think it also has a bad CMOS battery and it definitely had a bad main battery. 

I should have been working on a presentation about crypto for the Quwanis club. I may have misspelled that.

The other computer (the new one) seems to be working better with Mint Edge on it. In fact, they both seem to be better. It will take some time to see if all the intermittent problems are gone.

It's time to go to bed. Later

If Bitcoin makes new all-time highs tomorrow I'm going to buy a new Car Radio

 Bitcoin has been extremely volatile lately. It went over 73 k and then it sold off by about 7%. It's a real rollar coaster. 

I would like having a radio with a rear camera and GPS. I like knowing what's behind me and I'm tired of getting lost. 

I hope that when I wake up Bitcoin is over 74 k. 

I Gave up Trying to get my private key off the Flash Drive.

 I must have overwritten my private key to my Bitcoins on the old flash drive. I used Recoverit to try to recover the number. No luck.

At least I tried. Now I should call Lazslo and see if he remembers anything.

I used Northstar training for National Able and it worked until I had to right-click on something and delete it. I don't think Linux does that. Maybe it's my computer. I'll try it with a mouse. I tried it with a mouse and id didn't work. 

I'll have to use the Windows machine for Northstar. 

I'll go to the basement and do some classes now. Later

I spent a weekend getting my ETC mining computer working.

 I spent last weekend getting the ETC computer working. I can't remember what finally fixed it. I only make about $0.06 a day with it but it's a hobby. 

Bitcoin is doing well It went over $73,000 a coin yesterday. I'm in it for the long haul.  I hope to never sell. In fact, I hope it goes down so I can buy more.

I picked up some auction items this morning from Holstein. I got tools, a laptop and a couple of monitors. I forgot I also got a police scanner. I'll be spending time getting this stuff working. 

That's all for now. Later.

My ETC mining computer died Today

 The computer I use to mine ETC, died. I think it's the display module. It took hours but it seems to be running  I'm trying to load a new operating system on it. Mainly I want to find out if it has 4 processors. If so I could use it on Edge Node for Theta. 

It's doing some sort of long time consuming process, now. I'll have to wait to see if it works after that. 

Bitcoin went up again but it hasn't broken it's all-time high yet. I'm waiting for a breakout.

I Started with Northstar Today

 I started a new training on Windows today. Now I can work 15 hours more a week and increase my income. I put in two hours of training today. I can put in as much as 15/week.

On a different topic., I'm still waiting for a computer from ETCMC I've been waiting for about 3 weeks now. It's coming from England so maybe it's on schedule. Also it could be hung up in New York with the trucker's strike.

I normally make a link to a video here so I'll try to find something.



I haven't seen this yet but I like Lewis and Jaspret.

My earnings went up by $0.02 today.

 I don't know how many years I've been writing this blog and finally, someone clicked on an add and I made 2 cents.

Maybe Sarah went to my blog. I might have done it. I can't remember. 

I think I'll link a video that I like, here.

I found my Bitcoin

 I found my Bitcoin on my Bitcoin wallet. I thought I was transferring it to the Ledger Bitcoin Wallet and I sent it to my Coinbase Bitcoin wallet. A dumb mistake but at least I found it

My Theta Edge Mode seems to be working better. I'll know how much better at the end of the month. 

That's all for now. Later

I staked my tfuel on Theta edge node.

 Today I finally figured out how to stake my tfuel on the edge node. The key was to use the edit ribbon on the site. Right-clicking didn't work. 

Now I have to wait and see if it makes a big difference in my profits. I think it will. We'll see.

I'm fundamentally an optimist. I keep hoping I'll get back my lost Bitcoin from coinbase. I think I'll switch to Kraken or Binance when I do. 

You/tube is still going on and on about /bitcoin so I'll link something.
