Three Wishes A reply to my Stacking Sister @silversaver888

Gothic Birthday cake by tagora_d.ark

I know I have to do this. After some thought I’ve toned down my original ‘Three’ wishes as it may give my readers the wrong impression that I’m suicidal or plain nuts.

As in most winters I usually feel a decline in my health as well as my mental health, the stress of being the family’s sole wage earner is tough one especially in the current economic environment we are forced to adapt.
My regular exercise activity cycling is my Secondary commute option but only in fair weather so winter cycling in icy conditions is often a No Go. I’m speaking from my experience from two Fractures by bike accidents and a few close calls by impatient drivers.

I’ve cut out my Martial arts training due to lack of time, cash and venue options. My Father did instill upon me a sense of Independence and not to rely upon charities or even Government because they will not always be there and that there are always others in worse circumstances beyond your control.

My closer friends know I have somewhat a dual personality as I mentioned in my introductory blog last year.

~Wish One~

I wish for a clone of myself. With a full time job in Nursing, and a part-tine property manager, and handful of 'Cash/tip only' jobs on the side, etc, kids to bring up my hands are more than full. I also have a relative living under my supervisory care. Most social media like YouTube and Steemit blogs often require the sacrifice of sleep time. With the extra 24 hours of time I, me, we can easily be much more productive.

Having another me is having two minds are better than one. She will be the ideal sibling/friend/rival with the same sense of independence. But there could be drawbacks too, like deep seated quirks and habits that I don't like about myself only to see its full gory glory, "Confounded Bloody Raven, please put a new roll of toilet paper in the holder!" We will split the homestead duties. I, Kerris will take care of the Day to day business and the Bloody Raven will take care of the Videos, Blogging, and security.

~Wish Two~

Is the Walrus for sale? The ship featured in the TV series 'Black Sails' would be my ultimate home away from home. The ideal recreational vehicle for my taste in freedom, so whoever currently owns this mothballed but potentially seaworthy craft may be itching to selling her come the reset. I believe it's current state as more a movie prop stage than an actual functioning sailing ship. Oh the videos and parties I can put on!

Should gold and silver ever make that literal moonshot I can ask @silverd510 and any Steemian Craftsmen to build my 18th century Brigantine sailing vessel but I could upgrade into a Light frigate.

~Wish Three~

My best wishes are really for my kids. I wish want to see them off well without over sheltering them. Stacking silver as the family asset will go a long way to protect their future. To be flexible, self reliant, it's hard enough to get them to clean up after themselves but one step at a time. "Hey kids! Please put a new roll of toilet paper in the holder... Where'd they get that stupid habit from?"

@kerrislravenhill my pirate crewmate you and I seem to be of like mind. Sorry if that scares ya but honestly I think your wishes are those that we all have(save the pirate vessel but even there most of us want it). It may be our personalities or perhaps a stacker thing. All I know is that we often put those we love in front because that is our duty. This means the items we find fulfilling are on the side. I speak from experience with the time, funds, and family member, but the child wont be here till May lol. We are in this together and just as any crew would do we fight for one another. I appreciate the great view into your thoughts and know ypur kids will do amazing because of the example you set! Now put a roll of toilet paper up!! Thanks for sharing!!

And I'll send you an Invite aboard the new Storm Crow II well in advance. May even start up a 'Go-fund-me-Pirate-Ship' website complete with Project Mission statement, ship design concept, contracting, procurement, logistics, outfitting (Undersea metal detector, solar power, Satellite Internet link with on board Wifi, etc.)

@kerrislravenhill I am honored and not worthy of such a blessing. I can only promise my all Captain. Totally on board for the fund!

May all your wishes come true, sis! I will be awesome if you get wish #1... ummm.... can be scary too (in a very good way! Excellent article, my dearest stacking sister! Take care.

Just One clone.
Brings me back to a scene in Pirates of the Caribbean where Capt Sparrow was in Davy Jones Locker on the Pearl full of Jack Sparrows. The Pirates Perdition. Too much of a good thing. Thanks for dropping in Sis!

The clipper is an interesting wish. I'm leaning toward a submarine that can convert into a space shuttle to fly to the moon personally, but a bonafide pirate ship would kick ass☠

Well I didn't mention the more Up-to-date 21st century amenities like radar, GPS positioning, Inergy Solar powered system, Satellite Internet link with ship wide Wifi, luxurious bathroom with a place for the Potpourri, Two (count-em two, hell lets make it four) toilet paper dispensers, Dual 300 Hp Inboard engines, killer stereo system and still deciding on the Hot Tube thing. The tough part will be securing twenty-four working Cannons (6 pounders) damned were gonna have gunnery practice. Yes there's more but I better get working at the Go-Fund-me-Pirate-ship-page! Every been to Sea Witty?

.keep sailing on though and rawr and yarrrrr....one of the best creatives on here and is 86 cents, Steemit is really utter shit and ponzis at this point

Alas, me trys not to think of it too much. I've seen shitposts that yield much more wit far less writin, wit less deep characters, and less witty dialogue, and Poetry that doesn't even rhyme. I'm 'ere cause me Sister needs me upvotes, so I betters finds me more reasons to stay. Aye!

from the @helpiecake curation team!

Much love to you from all of us at @helpie!
Keep up the great work!



Thanks, looks delicious! I hope it doesn't go to my hips.

With all your wishings, I wish they could come true, the last being the most important, and wishing that one day you can continue on with your MA practices. I too, have quit my practices for the same reasons of time and money. I miss it as well, but never stop practicing what has already been learned. Take care during hard times. AND DO SLEEP!

Thank you for the Valuable encouragement.
The Scales of whether to Quit or Sally on wards changes sometimes Day to Day, To and Fro, feeling Up or Down. At least I get a lot of satisfaction from my Nursing work but I'd love to live on a sailing ship, maybe when I retire.

Well, cheers to the day you retire! Till then, may your days be positive and full of adventure ^_^
