Cool I had some Merlot last night. I am really enjoying red wines this year.
Grateful my dog is being good today & I expect to have a productive day!
Me too.
I recently tried some organic sulfite-free wine. I added an aerator and it definitely was some good tasting wine with no headache afterwards.

Country club lunch today then massage at spa later.
My self care wasn’t there the last two weeks so I just wanted to knock it out of the park getting back on track today. :)
I cleared the 11am to 4 pm time frame for just ME.

Not a ton of dough but I'm cool with what I received

Everything and everyone seems like they are falling apart on me. I'm just grateful I have my kids. At least they love me.

^^^I feel you. My best friend is MIA, but she has enough friendship deposits that I'm not making a big deal out of it. .
I'm grateful I've made it this far. I could have been homeless if the stars didn't align. I just happened to be in school when the pandemic started. I was lucky enough to have student loans to draw from and a camming business ready to go. I'm healthy. My friends and family are healthy. I'm grateful I had credit cards I could use the until I can get back to working full time.

Cuddling in comfortable blankets while learning and studying. I enjoy online classes compared to going in person 100%..

I was able to find unicorn party stuff for my oldest daughter's birthday. We also had chicken shawarma sandwiches since there was a Lebanese food place next door.

We ( family ) closed our 2nd AirBnB project.
It’s listing will be up today and internet on hopefully today.
We got the door code yesterday.
It’ll be such a comfy ( for me ) crash pad.
I just get the vacancies that are unsold but I really don’t think the whole first month would sell heavily unless there’s a ton of last minute people. I *think* Oct is going to be so comfy.
Update : First night here yesterday ! Doggie and I are so happy !
We decided to just keep the house for personal use now until Oct. 25 too and blocked those dates off so that is really nice.

The internet not on is my fault .
I missed the guys call at 8:30 am ( wtf honestly ) and missed the tech.
But J has fucked me so good and so LONG last night. I slept through the 8:30 am alarm and may need ibuprofen today.
Update :
YES ! I got the internet on and my family isn't pissed at me for slowing down AirBnB sales lol.
I got the tech guy to come back within 2 hours !

Your exotic food posts make me jealous. I'm in this small rural area often without these tasty options !

Yay! I know I gained weight with corona too.
I’m grateful I can study instead of work. I can’t work because of tendinitis, so I’m glad I have something else to do until I can go back to work. I’m glad I have the means to take time off work.

I’m so stressed with all the problems in my personal life. I’m just type A, add the fact ALL OF THIS SHIT is happening in the world. I forgot to submit an assignment and was almost in tears-just the straw that broke the camels back. She was like, “it’s okay don’t worry.” I’m grateful to everyone who gives me grace. I know I’ve stressed a lot of people out. I try really hard to not be an asshole, but sometimes my anxiety gets the best of me. I’m grateful for everyone that puts up with my shit.

I finally got a serious buyer for the baby clothes and they showed up and bought the clothes. That was 4 big boxes that were just taking up space. I'm glad to have cleared up space and made some money.

I guess I am thankful for L
He's a bit different (in a positive way) than most guys I've encountered
I am not the easiest to deal with and tend to clash with certain types of men.
He's mostly patient and understanding
And surprisingly passionate.
I'd seen him around for about a year and never thought twice about him because he wasn't my physical type
I suppose I am thankful to have given him a chance

My remote squirting dildo came in! I had the hardest time finding a dildo for my cam shows. Now I’m ready to make money this Sunday.
Also, grateful Eckhart did a free live 60 minutes class today. Good vibes.
I got a the bike set up, so I can workout from home. I never thought I’d be cycler but I’m really into it. It maybe a cult though...lol.

I got my very first small office to be able to work. I can't do much from home with the noise of kids. I'm grateful to be here after years of searching, saving and trying to stay afloat.

Things are finally coming together in my life after years of feeling like a discouraged miserable hoe.
I was successful in my job search and found a job that feels right for me on multiple levels. I’ve been feeling so jaded about my profession that I truly didn’t think that was possible. I honestly feel excited about my career now.
The area my new job is in has mountains, albeit small ones, and gets 60-70 inches of snow yearly. Cannabis is legal and once I get settled I’ll be able to grow 6 plants at a time.
I’m moving back to New England but from the limited interaction I’ve had so far with people in my new area they are already more welcoming than the town in bumfuck Maine where I spent 3 years. (I came to really love that town and made a couple good friends there, but had to endure a couple years of soul crushing loneliness first) New area is more culturally vibrant too.
I stopped talking to my ex and it was like a switch flipped. I feel better about myself, more relaxed, not suffering from low self esteem.
I’m just excited to see what the future holds for the first time in a long time!

A new pair of jeans came in the mail today and they fit perfectly. That's really awesome to me since I was just guessing on the size since I lost some baby weight and all my pants were pathetically loose/baggy and sad looking, especially in the booty area. They fit great as if they were molded to fit my body and I actually appear to have an ass in them.

Yesterday at the pole studio, a newer student told me I was "goals." She compared me to another stripper who trains there, who is one of the best dancers I've ever seen. I was flattered, because I don't have much natural talent as a dancer. I got serious about taking pole classes three years ago because I was such a bad dancer. I got rejected from a club because my dancing was so bad.
This compliment made me really happy and made me appreciate how far I have come. The clubs are still closed in my area, but I'm excited to get back on stage when they reopen. I have gained a lot of strength, lost 8 pounds and learned tricks (butterfly, shoulder mounts) that I couldn't do prior to the quarantine.

I’m grateful for healthy food that tastes good. I had some chicken meatballs with some black bean spaghetti. Yummy

That’s awesome! The most satisfying thing about it was watching my own development with it as I progressed further along.
Nobody’s told me I was “goals”, though. Not that I blame them… last thing anyone should want is to be like me in any way. When we do freestyle routines to music, I get a lot of compliments on the routines, but they often follow up with a sentence about “horrible taste in music” or some other crap. Whatever. Try doing my routines to Kenny G.
As for me, I’m grateful for the people I have and have had in my life. Especially in the wake of the one who passed, and the others really went out of their way to try making sure I didn’t spiral too far downwards from it.

Bf ended up getting his nephew a spare tire so he didn't have to drive him home after all. Afterwards the three of us(bf, baby, and I- my oldest is visiting ex's parents) all piled on our bed and took a 2 hour nap. He gave me a break from cooking since it was 6pm by the time we woke up and he bought dinner.

I was brave and bought a $2 hair dye from the dollar store and I'm quite happy with the results. Its blonde, a little more on the golden side but I think golden suits me better than ash blonde anyway. I've been box dying my hair for a year now and so glad I can do a good enough job where I dont need a hair dresser anymore

This is awesome to see. The last time I tried at home color (with full priced color) it came out red. Had to get it fixed eventually. That was my expensive lesson in not doing that at home.
