Good mornin, NOSTR Friends! I hope you’re staying warm. It is chilly here in Northern Ohio this morning. The Weather Channel App says it is 36 and cloudy now, and we can expect snow showers with a high temp of 39. I am not home most of the day today, so the ducks will be staying in until I get home this afternoon. Are you buying the dip? I read that the price of Bitcoin was in the low $90k’s overnight. If I had extra cash laying around, I’d be buying...but I did that last week. Have a great day, and keep stacking those Sats!

Good night, All!

QUESTION: I should know this but…, is there a seed phrase for Bitcoin Core wallets? I think I read there is no seed phrase (just save the wallet.dat file to a USB flash drive) for Core wallets like there is for hardware (?BIP 39?) wallets.

Good morning, NOSTR Friends! I hope you’re well. It is rainy an48 here in northern Ohio. Have you noticed the daylight doesn’t last as long as a month ago? 😕 What are you doing to prepare for the cold season? I harvested and dried 1/2 of our amaranth. I moved it into the garage yesterday ahead of today’s rain, and I hope to separate the seeds from it in a couple of days, then harvest the other halogen of my amaranth. My youngest got into my stored seeds from last year and I just found them. I’m going to experiment with amaranth seeds from 2024 & 2025 and see if I can make something my ducks will enjoy eating. I’ve read amaranth is high in protein. Enough babbling from me. I hope you have a great and productive day!

Good night, All! I hope you rest well tonight! I certainly intend to. I picked all our Concord grapes today, and took off all the stems and washed the grapes. I think we're going over to my in-laws' house tomorrow and I asked my mother-in-law to turn then into grape jelly for me. (I told her she can have the majority of the grapes if she'd make a few jars of jelly for me...) There ended up being 2-2.5 gallons of grapes. I downloaded MS SQL Studio today, and a sample database to practice with. I want to dust off some old skills from a job I had over a decade ago. It appears the skills have accumulated quite a lot of dust over the past many years!!! Good night! Sleep well, and wake rested in the morning!

Good morning, NOSTR Friends! I hope you're well. I started my day a little over 3 hours ago when my wife and the kids started their day. They left the house a while ago, and won't be home until late this afternoon. I will go outside in a few minutes to see if there is still dew. If not, I intend to pick our grapes. Last time I waited "just a little longer" an animal came by and stole my harvest. I want grape jelly this year!!! I hope you have a great day today, and do good work! Keep stacking those Sats! #coffeechain

Hello, NOSTR Friends! It is auction night. Tonight’s find is a 2021 US Silver Eagle. I paid a little more than spot price for her, but she sure is pretty!

#asknostr Good morning! I am starting a project and looking for advice & parts. I am looking for a small BTC mining rig that I can connect to my planned solar project: - runs on 115v (solar) -can solo mine (no mining pool) -connects to WIFI (not sure if this exists...) I welcome your suggestions! Also, can you include what I should expect to pay for it, and where I can find it? Thank you!

Hello, NOSTR Friends! I hope you’re having a wonderful afternoon with your family! We’ll be at my in-laws’ house for lunch. Then maybe joining some friends’ at their picnic on the beach of Lake Erie. Have a great day, and enjoy your family! Keep on Stacking!

Well, it is time to be done with work for the night, and look for dinner. I think I smell roast! I did yard work today and went to the auction house this evening . There was no silver coin or bullion for me to buy, so I settled on a 9” Wagner Ware cast iron skillet. It is clean and in good condition, though not seasoned,and the brand is recognizable. I am going to wash it up and see what it’ll do in the morning. I’m seeing fried eggs & potatoes for breakfast tomorrow…. 😋😋

Good night, NOSTR Friends! I hope you rest well tonight. Today was nice. The temperature finally started to moderate, and there was no rain, though my youngest Little checked the Weather App multiple times hoping for changes (storms). We were at a baby shower in anticipation of a new baby cousin joining the family in about 5 weeks - though it very well could be sooner. This evening I made my work list for the week, and I am sure things will be added through the week. It is almost time to order and pay for propane for the 2025/26 heating season. I have selected the amount of propane I intend to pre-buy. That’s gonna cost about 2.5 mortgage payments! Well, have a good rest, and get up ready to do your work! Remember, work was given to humanity as a blessing, though we never seem to view it that way! 😊 In my case, the busier I stay with my work, the less time I have to be indoors causing trouble with the wife! 👹👺😝😈☠️☠️☠️

County fair is over. The horses are back at their stable, ribbons have been earned, and we can now catch up on much-needed sleep! Our middle “little” had a good 4H year, competed, won some ribbons, and got to spend long days with beloved “Dreamer” (leased horse). My wife is relieved that the week is over as she is our only driver. No more days starting at 5:30 to take “little” to the fairgrounds to start horse responsibilities. I hope this was a good week for you. Here’s to the upcoming week - we’re putting finishing touches on preps for the upcoming 2025-2026 homeschool year - our first born’s senior year!!!

Well, the kiddos are getting 4H project on display at the fairgrounds today. I’m watching people ride horses, and wash horses and pigs. I remember not liking pigs when I was a boy, and nothing has changed in the past 40 years. Say what you will about them, but the only things I think they’re good for is bacon, sausage, etc. Their sound is atrocious. Well, I’m going to go walking around to see what is here. Have a great night, everybody!
