So grateful that the hotel I'm staying at while I'm out of town looking for rentals gave me a free night! It was for the inconvenience of having to switch rooms for giving me a suite with a broken heater.
I used my points for the first night, so I just got an extra day In paradise! Yess!
So grateful.;D

I'm so glad I work from home. I was on a rare treck out today-saw a seven car accident. Five of which crashed into each other watching the original two. There's literally blood splatter on the road.

It's kind of a niche program so I probably shouldn't say. But it's really related to my job and earlier before I wrote this I was reading the book and I was like wow...reading this is not terrible! I kind of like it. I also love the professor, she's a phd and industry professional and I think a really good example for other women. She's a lot more demanding than the other instructors I've had but I also like that aspect of it. I do much better when I have something to focus on so when I got home today rather than marathon HIMYM all night I started reading. This class is a general for the overall program so I feel a lot better about it. Last week we had homework to turn in and I did it in a fog midnight to ~4am the night before (after having passed out from 8pm to midnight) and I ended up doing really well on it! Hopefully my good stride continues.

That I can cam.That i think i just made and passed my first payout for SM. Made my day high goal for the first time. That my c2c tonight was such a cutie! That he gave me five stars. After my pity party today im glad i sucked it up and was able to do it instead of missing out on a potential regular!

I am grateful for my awesome friends. Even the exes who are trying to get a foot in the door.
I have a massive list of people who have listened to me cry/comforted me, forced me to eat and change clothes, offered their guest rooms, offered to help me move, and wanted to kick his ass/tell him what an idiot he is.
Warm fuzzies!
Well, I couldn't find an actual positivity thread so I'm resurrecting this one. I'm going to live here for awhile. Today I'm grateful for tampons. I know it sounds funny, but I'm sure I'll get better at this as I go along.

Have you tried magnesium?
I use this: http://www.amazon.com/Natural-Vitality-Calm-Raspberry-Lemon/dp/B00BPUY3W0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1454892111&sr=8-1
TMI alert...
I recommend getting the plain version, as the Raspberry Lemon is too sweet for my tastes. You mix it into water, and it's a slightly fizzy drink that you can add fruit juice to or drink plain. It will definitely loosen things up, so go slowly with it until you get a sense of how it affects your body. I drink mine the night before and wake up to a nice, easy poo in the morning.

I'm deeply grateful that dancing allows me to take off work whenever I need to, especially in emergencies and when something unexpected comes up. I don't even have to think twice about the money or notifying a supervisor or finding a shift replacement. Amazing!

Having a home, food and some cash.
Today I'm grateful for having another day off. Even though I feel guilty as hell I just know there's no monies right now. So might as well sleep in with the cold weather.

For clean, drinkable water. I feel so horrible for the people in Flint, I cried about it today after seeing pictures of kids hauling water bottles. So it made me really appreciate having clean water where I live.

Woohoo I am so grateful that my annoying neighbor is gone! I noticed that his truck has been missing the last few days, the other day I saw my landlady on his porch and she's never normally on it so that made me wonder if he was gone for good. Today I looked when I went by and all of his stuff that he always had on the porch is completely gone so I guess he really left. Toodles!

Today, I am grateful for not pressing down on the knife when I sliced through my whole finger nail. Thankfully, it only cut down to the cuticle making a U shape..just happened to be cutting lemons. literally doing this --> :banghead: for 30 min straight in my hallway.

I'm grateful for the fact that my small bills for this month are covered already with some extra. I actually didn't even realise they were til I checked my savings and the money was there. Awesome considering its halfway through the month. Now all I need to focus on is rent. YAY!

I have some legitimately great friends. They have their flaws, usually in the way of being inconsiderate and self-centered, and I know I bitch about people a lot, but overall, I know my friends are pretty damn awesome. I know there are people I could call who would do anything they could to help me if I was in trouble. And a rather large circle know I'm a sex worker and are supportive and loving about it. I've never lost a friend to being a stripper. I've never lost a friend who I eventually told I was an escort. Most of my female friends are married or have LTRs and they aren't weird about me being around their husbands/boyfriends and/or kids.
There are so many girls on here who have the problem of being lonely and isolated because no one in their life knows about their adult work, but I actually have a pretty solid, large circle of people who I know have my back. They might not fully understand everything and say something stupid once in awhile out of ignorance, but overall, they really are great people, and I'm lucky to know so many open-minded people who love me.

Grateful that I FINALLY feel the presence of my Dad, who's been deceased for 9 years.
We were so close, ( he even died on my birthday). So it was a mystery why he hasn't been felt around me.
I realized that i blocked it myself with some negative stuff i was into, but that's all turned around.
He comes in the form of a singing bird, right outside of my bedroom window.:)

I felt that way after looking at a pine tree & for some random reason I was thinking of what my late uncle said about those...Those are always nice moments.

I'm so grateful for my husband's support..since I quit stripping he hasn't pressured me to work at all...he's taken over my bills and let me take my time to figure out my next move. He's given me the opportunity to write full time without any guarantees much will come from it, and goes on about how proud he is of me. I'm not writing Shakespeare over here, just stupid crap about vampires, werewolves and BDSM, but he acts like I'm J.K. Rowling or something. He takes me seriously and cheers me on. I'm a lucky lady. :)
