I'm grateful for the freedom to take a break from working and allow myself to relax and recharge when I feel burned out

I'm grateful for the little luxuries I can afford thanks to my job. I was grocery shopping at Whole Foods tonight and I felt so blessed to throw anything I wanted into my cart without looking at the price. No way in hell was I able to do that when I made $10/hr working as a receptionist.

As much as I rant about the old dude I guess I am glad that I can say a do almost anything and he's still there. Seems like I can be myself (for the most part). And thankfully he is verbally affectionate whereas I have to work on that.
Stumbling upon a financial submissive when I've been wanting for a long time to get into financial domination. Looking forward to not only improving my domination skills but also increasing my economic standing

I know exactly what you mean! And it is totally worth it to buy the more expensive, healthier, better quality foods. I've never been healthier than when I was a camgirl/stripper, haha

Grateful that my 2 kitties who have been roommates for 2 months now are sleeping on the bed next to each other, I was worried they would have a hard time adjusting. The male likes to lick the female, I know she likes it but she is still playing hard to get. She still growls at him if he gets too close. I hope one day they start cuddling too. I'm so happy they get along overall. They play together too, chase each other around the house.

For sure! The way I see it, you can spend more money on quality food now, or you can spend it on medical bills later!

Today I am very grateful for Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. My 2 year old niece scribbled all over the wall in crayon in the corner behind my daughter's chalkboard. My daughter was never a wall scribbler so I had google how to remove crayon because soap and water wasn't working, I found the solution. Saved by Mr. Clean, lol.

Those magic erasers are the bomb! I have one and I'm never going back! I'm impressed that they can remove crayon, though. THAT's a tough job.
I'm grateful to be another year older

Got Approved for a vehicle.
For having the day off today.
For losing 10 pounds so far.
For as soon as I begin to beat myself up for mistakes, God shows me His grace.

Grateful for a beautiful day. Low humidity, cool temperature. Just one of those Autumn days before Halloween that you can drive with your windows rolled down and comfortably soak up the sun and the cool air. I love this time of year.

Platonic cuddle client. He came into town for today and we had a session. It's cold today and so it helped for warmth reasons too, lol. I didn't have to worry about a boner poking me in the ass. He's the asexual client. It was nice.

I love when I get overcharged for an item at the grocery store. The stores policy is if the item is under $10 you get it free.So I got a free spinach quiche. Yay

A 3 hour appointment canceled on me tonight due to being sick, but he insists I stop by and grab my envelope anyway with my full payment. I told him that really wasn't necessary. This is someone I know wouldn't cancel for no reason, and shit happens, but he's adamant about it, and honestly, I'm not trying too hard to fight it. I really needed that money this week.
He's honestly not even someone I would've minded having to "work for it" with. I enjoy spending time with him. We'll spend the first 2 1/2 hours of his appointment just talking and drinking and making jokes about people on the street from his hotel balcony. I am actually kinda disappointed I won't spend tonight with him lol But I'm super grateful he'll pay me anyway.

Overall, I'm just grateful to have such great and devoted regulars. Two helped me out with a big loans to pay for my cat's surgery. I have two in my old city that will always make a point to see me if I come into town. One even went so far as to drive over 3 hours roundtrip one morning to see me in my new city when it had been "too long" since I visited and wasn't going to make it down that week. This isn't even a multi-hour client. He literally is there for 15 minutes - half hour TOPS. But he thought it was worth the drive for that. I have been super flaky in my schedule lately and the only people who have complained are new clients. My long-term regs are really awesome.

Today I am grateful to have woken up to another day :)
Last year was tough, after battling anxiety and depression and dealing with dark thoughts.
I am employed, I still do side PSO work.
I have 3 wonderful cats and great friends when I have time to socialize.
My rent is covered this month, and I have food.
I woke up this morning, did some laundry and yoga--and even payed a bill.
All things considered, I am doing well--and things can only get better.

Lady at Kinkos printed my stuff then as I was about to pay she was like 'nah youre good" - free print job
The dude I financially dominate (the one who said he wasn't going to call back for a long time) calls back a couple short days later - so Im up a couple extra hundred today
Got a second interview with vanilla career - Luxury office building and hot boss
Annoying neighbors gone - peace and quiet and beautiful landscaping (they were messy/litter bugs)

Thankful that my nightmare of a hospital bill, which I’ve been paying on monthly since last year, is finally paid off! :D That bill was the reason I got back into sex work, though... guess in a way, I’m thankful for that, too.

I am grateful for adult work. I can have a flexible schedule while I take care of a sick parent, have the opportunity to make more money, learn new things all the time, be creative, and be on top of technology. It drives me to stay in great shape and healthy. I also love to work from home.

I had an interesting morning. I went to a massage therapy place nearby because my lower back has been killing me. The lady asked me if I was okay with a male massage therapist. I said that was fine. It turned out that he was a former body rub client of mine. Apparently he got licensed as a mt. Right away he walked into the room and said,"Hi ______ (name I was going by for body rubs)!" After he was done massaging me, I went to pay him and he said,"No. I wouldn't feel right about charging you". I tried to sneak and leave the $ there but he seen me, grabbed it, handed it to me, and told me to put it back in my purse. I was expecting him to say that he was just joking but he didn't. I thanked him and got out of there before he could change his mind, lol.
