We mostly wing it too. But we had to make an appt to pick up the pigs, so their area must be done. Chicks ship on Weds, so their area must be done. I have help scheduled, so I need to know what they will be doing and have it ready.
I really don't like so much at once, but beggers can't be choosers, so we do the best we can when we have help.

So did you figure out how to convert steem to US$? i haven't done it yet and i've been on here for 2 years! I do have a Coinbase account, so I am going to try to sell a wee bit and see how it goes :0)

No, it's been one fiasco after another trying to figure this out. So far, we've opened 2 checking accts, had the debit card cancelled on the 2nd acct before it even reached us, had fraud alerts called on us, and mostly we have no clue what we are doing!
So we are waiting for the new debit card to appear, and we'll try again, probably next week when we aren't so busy...
