We Are Alive! January 14th, 2024 Snow and Apple Sauce
Today is a very cold day. It's currently 11F (-12 C) but the "feels like" temperature is more like -7F (-22C). That seems about right, as soon as I go outside, there's this instant feeling of cold on my face.
After the sidewalk is clear of snow, I come inside to the project going on: the last of the apple sauce. We acquired so many apples, it's taken us a while to make apple sauce from it all! The children are going to town making the sauce!
We're already at more than eight quart jars of apple sauce. The apple cooking and milling is today, the canning will be tomorrow.
Bless the Most High!
Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin
We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.
No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13
Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny
Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.
Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books. I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.
Bank Bailout Special!
It's happening, folks. The banks are going under! To educate our children about what is going on, there is a "Bank Bailout Book Bonanza" going on with the Tuttle Twins! Use coupon code FORTY for 40% off your purchase! Check out the books here.

[@PowerPaul:] Hey @ironshield. I saw you hold a pretty big position for selling CCD. I like to ask you if you like to take it back. Would be good for CCCEO and you, too.
CCCEO is short before to introduce a voting service where you can exchange your CCD for votes with a pretty good ratio. Before I introduce it, I will clean up the market to be able to sell CCD again when voter is launched. This would mean I have to invest money, but this money would be better invested in development, instead of buying back tokens. On your side for sure you will be unhappy that you don't have the CCDs (because I bought them back) to multiply them in our voter.
So there are two options how the future will go:
A.) I buy the token back and you made your profit. I would be happy for you, because you made your profit, but I would prefer to avoid spending the HIVE. But I would.
B.) Retract the sell order and be happy to multiply their value via votes our voter. Hint: this has much more profit then selling them.
I leave it up to you and would be fine with you in both cases, of course. If you like to make the best for you and CCCEO in the same time, use them in the voter and help me as small dev to gain money thru CCD sells again. This would help us all - including you. Remember that I'm a private single developer working in main time for this. Selling tokens doesn't help CCCEO grow, right now. It suppress the growth. Maybe for you it's a small amount of diverse tokens - for me, living in a third world country and giving all I have to CCCEO, it's alot. When I speak metaphorical:
Can we maybe first let this child CCCEO grow up, before we send it to work? When it's an adult, for sure it can do awesome stuff. We all see, what is growing and upcoming there. But when there is to much labor on this young child, right now, it can't grow up, will become disabled or maybe will rebel because it begins to scream or cry: I can't handle that any longer. Can we give CCCEO a chance to grow up, before we put to much pressure on it? Let's just way a little and it can bring you much more, than a young child could do.
Our first game and now our voter is the first evidence for this. But we have to give them the time for.
Thank you so much that you supported CCCEO so far and thank you for every ongoing action! I liked to write you, that your an make the best choice for your CCD, too. I buy them back or you like to multiply their value with the voter?
In every case: Hive a great day!
(P.S. voter is ready to get published - I actually translate the article for publishing. So it's not a case of weeks when you can multiply them...)
[EDIT: unclear wording/sentence changed for better understanding]
@PowerPaul, thanks for the time and attention with this extensive and informative comment. Frankly, I had forgotten that I had the CCD sell order. I'm glad I didn't undersell the token and that the sell order is still there, since this gives me better options now.
Because of your timely information and appeal, I'm pulling the sell order and holding on to the token, especially with the knowledge that a future voting mechanism will be put into play. I have mixed feelings about pay-per-votes, but I see the use and benefit it offers to help BOOST posts for more exposure.
I earnestly desire the game to be a success and I see lots of effort put into it!
[@PowerPaul:] Buddy, thank you so much! Thank you for pulling on the same rope. I'm sure this will benefit us all. And on the other side I'm much more happy that you can use this CCD as fuel for the voter.
Thank you once again!
I agree with you that this kind of token use case is a very mixed topic. Especially when it's rewarding. Let's hope I can include it in the right surrounding and context to be valid to exist. As always: I will do my best. The voter would be a great tool for the user and CCCEO. Let's see if I can calm down the minds that don't like this kind of use case, when they arise or how we work with or integrate concerns. Always glad for feedback!
Once again: Thank you! Call me, if I could be at your service!
[@PowerPaul:] Have your joy with it! Here it is: https://peakd.com/hive-196769/@cryptocompany/multiply-the-value-of-your-ccd-with-just-2-clicks-you-are-welcome-or-new-feature-on-our-website
Whoa! That sounds like it's too cold for my liking. A part of me suddenly felt relieved we do not have winter. Do stay warm and dry. Making more apple sauce sounds like fun! Glad the children love helping out. Happy new work week ahead!
