I'm grateful to be back in the mindset of trying to make money. One of my vanilla gigs is a little slow, but I'm not letting that stop me. I'm going to proceed with setting up my PSO stuff, and I found out about another business opportunity (not an MLM, thank god) that might work for me between writing and taking calls. I'm trying to remind myself that it is all about pushing forward, even when it seems impossible or even when I don't know what the next step is.

I'm so glad I had a night to myself last night at one of the AirBnB's. I spent like two nights with family , then about 5 with J ( hotel while traveling) , then one at a strip club ( I mean ... I didn't sleep there but I didn't have *time* to myself that day at all ) , then back with family , then two days ago a night with both J and daughter. I kind of lost track but I don't think I had a solo relaxing night for at least 10-13 days . I can't even remember further back than that ha.

For new contacts, my Golden State stimulus check, a $35 gift card to Amazon for doing a focus group, my health, my kid's health, I am not wanting for anything at the moment, and life is good and peaceful.

Thankful that L’s best friend is getting licensed to do the job L has been wanting to do for years so now he has motivation and I don’t have to nag the hell out of him or threaten to leave him.
This should put him closer to the $75k+ range which is a step in the right direction
He also got a bonus at work and wants to take me on a trip for anniversary

Grateful to not be a broke hoe. I’m still deciding if I should go back to the club, but I’m doing well enough with camming I can take my time deciding.
I’m grateful I don’t have an asshole husband or boyfriend to answer to. I’m a free woman!

Omg, we checked out this gym right down the street from us on a whim, and it is AMAZING. I see it all the time when I go grocery shopping, but it looked so nice, I assumed it had to be expensive. But the membership we signed up for is literally the same price as what I was paying at Planet Fitness. They're huge, and have a basketball court, free group classes, a pool, hot tub, sauna, and steam room, tanning, hydromassage beds, a crossfit section, and a freakin' THEATER that plays movies all day with treadmills and ellipticals in it. We have access to everything except the cycling classes and the fancy scale that measures all your health stats. I am so pumped to start going back to the gym!
The only downside that makes them "worse" than PF is that they don't have a ton of locations. If we ever left this area, it would be too far. And PFs being everywhere is what made them attractive to me when I was moving all the time. But I like this area, so I think we'll stay anyway.

^^^ Yes planet fitness is 10 bucks a month for me near me and open 24/7 compared to ufc gym at 50 bucks open 24/7. Is yours a new gym or at that price per month? I believe PF has price tiers based on amenities as well as multi-location spots for $30-ish bucks a month?
I spent 30 minutes watching doggie tv videos on youtube with one of the dogs again today before I decide to work tonight or not after a quick nap. Super cute how my dog reacts to doggie tv lol.

I talked to relative today on the phone(the one that's in the hospital) and things slowly seem to be getting better for her. No more ventilator but not sure when she'll be able to get out of there yet. I'm feeling optimistic for her though.

Well, I almost had a heart attack.
I saw a email I thought was from Paypal, (they always use your first/last name), thanking me for my order of $199.00, uh no
So I called this number from the email to dispute, this guy had me to download some team viewer thing to dispute, he said bc banks were closed on Saturday, he'd have to call me back Monday..
Well, I decided to call Paypal, she told me to remove the download, & said to put 2 step authentication, which I did.
Had me forward the email to spoof dept.
They said to dispute it, but, it's not in my transactions. So I wrote them back
Anyway, I got the lady's name from PP she said my account's safe, TG.

I think it's new-er? Not sure when they opened, but they seem to be in the process of expanding, so I'm guessing they're a little newer and working their way up. The membership we got, that includes all the amenities I mentioned, is $22/month, which is exactly what I was spending for the Planet Fitness "black card" membership that lets you use their tanning/massage beds and go to any location. Yearly fee is $50, while PF was $40. The difference is negligible, and with so many other amenities. Our new membership also allows us to go to any other location, but, like I said, there aren't a ton. They are in several states already though, with plans to expand into more. They're called VASA. They aren't in CA yet, but if anyone is in the mountain states or midwest, I recommend checking them out!
I loved PF for what they are, and I really did like having so many different locations since I used to move around a lot. But this place being the same price for more stuff clinched it. It's also right next to the PF in this area.... lol So the drive was the same.

I’m grateful for you hoes. Thanks for your support during hard times. I’m really trying to turn my life around, but COVID really set me back. I’m grateful to be alive and healthy. We ALL have had to grieve through covid. Some of us made it through the pandemic a bit unscathed compared to others, but this was a tough year (March 2020- May 2021) for all of us. I’m grateful for my vaccine, and that the worst is behind us-at least for awhile.
May we all have an awesome summer!
Sending vibes of peave, joy, and abundance.

So far I got some money from stupid vanilla job training. It's a lot less than I was expecting but they said it was for 2 of the days last week before the pay period cut off. Apparently they only pay $9.26/hour during training. I guess something is better than nothing and I hope to have a better pay check next time.

Grateful my kid got his first shot and that he will be fully vaccinated by the time everything opens up around here. Only 60 new cases of the 'Rona in my city today. I I'm grateful that I got through this year as well. Probably one of the roughest years of my adult life in terms of maintaining some sort of stability. I think of where I was last year and I'm so grateful that I am where I am now, ready to start rebuilding and making a strong comeback. Also grateful that I got a lot of work done yesterday on my book, which I'm really happy with. Things are getting better, thank God!

Went to the library and found a meter with minutes on it-which is great because my nails are so long I can’t pull my credit card card out of the parking meter.
Returned package from Amazon to Kohl’s and got $5 kohl’s cash-i basically got a freee face mask. My favorite thing to do is to put a face mask on take a nice bath. I’ll do that tonight.
My new doctor is so good. I know he’s gonna have me back at the gym by July. I’m getting better-slowly but surely.
I’m going for a bike ride!

The dead beat customers from three weeks ago paid their $400 invoice.
My AirBnB opened last minute saving me frustration / effort / cash staying at a dive motel tonight.

$450 and an extra hour fell down from the sky in 90 minutes.

Oh my god what a fancy gym. I think right now is a great time to look for memberships. My old gym used to be pretty expensive but now they're offering a $19.99/month membership & no initiation fee.
I always have a Planet Fitness membership in addition to my regular gym. I was lucky enough to sign up for a contract that's $5/month and I love that they're open 24 hours. When I was stripping I used to pop in on my way home to burn off the champagne. For the past few months I've loved that I can go in at 4:00 am when nobody else is there and feel safer than my regular gym that's more like a hangout spot.
I'm grateful for my second vaccine shot. Now I can go get a cranio-sacral massage and a hydrafacial in 2 weeks without any worries. I'm so excited!
