I don't like writing low-effort posts, and this one looks like it. But, believe it or not, being in this "surgery recovery state," it's a hard effort for me to do it... Exactly that keeps me offline a lot more time than I would like... But, even then, I have HIVE on my mind, and I can't skip my favorite day of the month, the #HivePUD!!!

For those who asked about my health and sent fast recovery wishes, I can't thank you enough! I got overwhelmed by your comments and nice words... All that just proves that HIVE isn't just another blockchain, another token in the cryptosphere, another math calculation... It is way more than that!
I'm still standing by my words cited by LUT at the #HiveOpenDays, Alicante, and I'm happy to see many others share the same motto! All of you guys rock!

Back to the #HivePUD and HivePower accumulation!!! I created just a few posts in July, which means less liquid HIVE accumulated... Around 900 HP gained from curation rewards, and the rest came from my H-E endeavors and small trades...
This was my HivePower BEFORE the PowerUP:

2K this month...

Including this power up, a bit more than 4K accumulated during July...

Goal for the next HivePUD in September: 150K! Round number! I like it!

So, what is #HivePUD?
Just a short introduction to HivePUD... What does it mean at all? #HivePUD is short for the Hive Power Up Day. It's an event when Hive members power up their liquid HIVE and stop any active PowerDown! It all began with the great fellow Hivians @streetstyle and @traciyork, and it is held on the 1st day of every month.
Check out the official #HivePUD post for August here... Hurry up if you want to participate!
Thank you for your time.

I expected you to show up for HPUD, even though you are on the mend 🙂
And I did boost today, really big for my notion and account... 2,5K
Woohoooo! 2.5K is huge! 🍻
You grew your stake by over 10% with that! 🥂
I think fiinding a healthy balance between our online activities and real life is not always easy as we have a limited time in a day :)
Oh, yes... It's hard to keep the balance... But it's important for our health! 🍻
Good evening @ph1102, I'm so glad to see a post from you and I hope you recover as soon as possible. Sending you a big hug. 🤗
I'm still around... moving slowly, but alive... 😂
Thanks! Have a great Sunday!
I'm really glad you're alive...
Just take things easy with your recovery :)
I will... My body (pain) limits me from doing crazy shit... 😃
Thanks!
Congratulations @ph1102! You received a personal badge!
See you at the next Power Up day to see if you will repeat this feat.
May the Hive Power be with you!

Happy HPUD, and I hope you are recovering well. That is a huge powerup, and I didn't forget to do my small powerup this month.
Happy HivePUD to you too! Good to hear that you keep your powering up tradition... :)
Nice one! Powered up 100 HP this round too, partly because there's liquid Hive from the post rewards these days.
Happy #HivePUD!! Slow growth is the best way to build up your stake...
You had surgery? Hope everything is fine, man! Get well soon!
Yes, I had my hernia surgery 10 days ago... I was expecting a faster recovery, but it looks like it will take a few more weeks...
Nice work!
