I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #180 - A Busy, Focused, Productive Monday! - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Monday, January 23, 2023

I live barefooted and naked, very close to Earth and Nature, in a 16-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i. I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

While Mondays are still very busy for me, I think I'm getting more used to the flow of things, so I'm handling the various things I have to do better. Basically I just had to stay very focused and aware of my time all day, getting as much as I could done in the time periods that I had.

Because there was a Leadership Council Meeting at 10:30AM, I did my best to get caught up on Hive before it started, and after it finished, that was my main focus again, catching up on Hive (did I mentioned that I get a lot of notifications now?). Once I had basically gotten caught up, I got as many of my Hive tasks done as I could before I had to go get some work on the land done. One of those tasks was writing and publishing my Index4Index Daily Inspired Motivation: Constantly Expand Your Perspective! post, which I needed to do before I wert to work so I would not have to write three posts in the evening.

Even with so much of my focus on getting stuff on Hive done, I still found time to update the Arch Linux installation on my third hard drive, which downloaded and installed 8.67 GB of packages to upgrade. I'll get it bootable tomorrow. All three of my Arch Linux installations live again! The installation on this third hard drive had not been booted up or updated for one year, nine months, and eight days.

Once I got what I set out to do on Hive done by 2:30PM, I went to get two main projects done on the land. One, we had to move the sheep, and their movable, modular sheep fencing, from the Citrus Orchard to the Durian Orchard. It was quite a lot of work, party because the two sheep are afraid of people, so we had to corner them and catch them, and then carry them to the new location. Secondly, we had to move several sections of the movable-modular fencing (most from the Citrus Orchard, but also some sections from a storage area), plus the sheep shelter that Ano and I had built. Ano and Elohi caught the sheep, and I carried them to their new location. It took us a while to set the fencing up in the Durian Orchard, too.

Once we were done with that, I took a quick shower to clean off a bit, then I went to do some new-trail touch up for a trail system that Bryan, Elohi, and Iolanthe had just cleared and created. Bryan came to work with me for a bit.

As soon as I was done working on the trails, I took another shower, strained a new round of kefir, blended up some kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao, inoculated a new batch of milk with kefir grains, chopped a coconut for my morning superfood fire coffee, and made myself flood. With all that done I returned to the Flow House to get as much done on Hive as I was able before our community Logistics Meeting at 6:30PM.

When the meeting finished, I returned to the Flow House to begin writing and to finally publish My 34th Monday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update: Another Glorious Week of Growth, and More BXT Tokens! post, and then immediately begin writing this post.

It's now past 12AM, and I'm pretty sleepy, so I think it's time to end this post so that I can get to sleep. I still have lots of Hive notifications to catch up on, but they will have to wait until tomorrow morning. I'm too tired to do it now. I appreciate you all so much! Until tomorrow! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚
