Saw my ex today and didnt sleep with him. He's so friend zoned
Yes!!!! That’s the best!
I’m grateful I made my medium high goal. I still have one more day. This is my first month being cash flow positive. Feels so good. I know I will get my money right. This pandemic damn near made me homeless. I’m so thankful to be a milf! Grateful for sex work! It’s depression proof! Mom was wrong...I choose a great career! Hell there’s chemist and lawyers out work and on unemployment. I’m so grateful I can make $1g a week. I don’t mean to brag, but seriously I’d be FUCKED if it wasn’t for sex work. I love being a cam whore!

I took my daughter to her check up and she was 7 ounces underweight which isn't too bad. The pediasure and foods to help her gain weight must be working and also, the doctor finally accepted that she's naturally on the smaller side. Both my kids are and I was too, until I had kids. Fast metabolism.

$40 for a dustbuster is one of the best purchases I've ever made. Why have I gone so long without one?

I'm 16 3 hour classes away from being done with Real Estate school. It is feeling more real now.
When I was SO far away ( my state requires 200 hours ) it just seemed so " meh ".
I have fears ( not passing exam or getting stalled somehow getting started at a brokerage ) but it's definitely FEELING more real currently !

Grateful for not being a celebrity. Could you imagine this every time you left your house? No wonder justin bieber snapped at one point. 2 people climbed on this fake Justin's car near the end too with police helping him leave. Good grief. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRb0pQaTqog

I love the new area we live in. Everyone I told about where we were going badmouths it, but I don't get it. I realize a lot of the houses around here are a little low-end, but the area itself is awesome. We live right off a main road, and only a mile from the freeway entrance. We have a lot of cool shops, restaurants, bars, and even discovered a 24-hour bowling alley right down the road. We're now equidistant between 2 main cities/downtowns, and really not a bad drive from anywhere since we are so close to the freeway. And our grocery store is huge and amazing. With a donut and boba tea shop right next to it. I think I've found my favorite area since moving to this city.

That’s what’s up! A lot of people get too hung up on shallow stuff with regard to whether a neighborhood is ‘good’.

I haven't gone to the health food store in over a year, but now that I'm vegan I was in heaven with all the vegan options there are. I was going to buy a whole vegan key lime cheesecake but I settled on dark chocolate hummus and omg it tastes like brownie batter, or maybe it doesn't but to me it does lol. The cashier was soo friendly and there was a mistake in price on one of my orders so he let me have it for free.

Yummy...they’ve gotten so much better with vegan options than years ago. I he’d done meatless meatball...beyond meat I think it’s called...that were so good today.
I had some cauliflower pizza...yum.
I’m grateful I can afford quality food. I swear if I had to choose between quality food and housing I don’t know which one I’d choose.

So far, I'm loving my new place and the ladies here have been super kind and welcoming. They keep offering me food which is awesome because I don't get paid till Thursday so I'm eating cheapest frozen meals till then.
Also, I received an email notification telling me that my focus groups was canceled. My heart went up in my throat because I really needed that hundred dollars, but as I read the email, it said that even though the event was cancelled, we would still get paid for our time. Which means that the check will probably be sent even sooner. Thank God! Rent is coming up and I don't want to disappoint my new landlord or annoy them in any way.

I got a massage (it’s a sport massage, so it’s not soothing, but I’m grateful because my muscles needed it) it hurt! I wanted to punch the guy in the face...lol. I laughed so hard cause it hurt tickled me.
I’m grateful to do some personal development. I need to work, but I took some time off to do self-care. I was just a mess! I’m going to do some self-care and get back to hustling tomorrow.

Have either of you tried the new impossible meat? I made swedish meatballs with it tonight and it's really good, but for someone who has not eaten red meat in probably 15+ years, it is kind of terrifyingly similar to the real thing, especially uncooked. If you are even in Philly let me know and I will make you dinner!

For my 1 hour 40 min. Walk and got to watch a beautiful sunset.
I haven't eaten meat in 30 years. I may have to try impossible meat. Is it made out of soy? I have to be careful with soy products. Caffeine plus soy products give me high estrogen levels and uterine fibroids.

No not yet! I’ll let you know! Im seriously thinking of going vegan. I’m not like really an animal right person-good for them it’s just not my priority-but with global warming they say we should eat less meat. I can’t go cold turkey, but I’m working on transitioning. I’ll try it!

I will have to try these. I'm grateful they don't have soy in them. At one point I was drinking way too many sugar free energy drinks (caffeine) and eating way too many soy products. My estrogen level skyrocketed, my energy plummeted, and I wound up with a uterine fibroid the size of a grapefruit and had to go to the hospital for a UAE. IT SUCKED. So now it's only 1 coffee (half caffeine, half decaf) and fresh veggies. I'm so happy to see a soy free veggie burger so I will definitely check it out! Thanks again for posting this.

I’m grateful for wine and chocolate. I’m grateful for Epsom salt baths. Water and electricity-its so easy to take little things for for granted. I’m grateful for sex work. I’m so glad I can cam and hide from the world. The stigma sucks to deal with, but sex work in of itself isn’t that bad.

Speaking of chocolate...
I'm grateful that CVS had a heart box full of chocolate for 50% off today. I ate the one i originally bought for boyfriend for V Day because I was hungry and had no food or money at the time. We still have yet to see each other but now that the covid numbers are slowly decreasing, we'll see each other soon. Thank God I was able to get him a replacement Valentine, otherwise i would've felt bad BC he knows I got him a box of chocolates.

I’m grateful my mom was nice today. She’s BPD, so I never know what I’m gonna get with her. Some days she’s great, but other days I have to deal with mommy dearest.
I’m grateful when my mom is able to show up as healthy adult instead of as a wounded adult. I know she’s only human, but I’m tired of going to therapy to deal with her...lol.
I’m grateful she has not had Covid-19 either. I’m grateful I haven’t gotten sick! I’m grateful I’m healing from my TMS. I have a sports massage tomorrow. I’m grateful I have the resources to be able to take care of my health.
I’m grateful I had a good day. Its become a rarity in these crazy times to just have a good day without a lot of stress.
I’d love to take my mom to Hawaii or California next year for her birthday. I don’t know how many years I have left with her, so I want to do something nice for her birthday. She’s not that old, but with covid ive learned we shouldn’t take people forgranted.

I’m glad my new company had better signal and quality plus I pay about $14 less each month
And the cherry on top is they gave me $100 gift card for switching over to them!!!
Would be nice to invest it but gotta pay the bills with it.

My dude listened to me and got his daughter in a program to reclaim some of his work hours !
It is too much to have this home school routine going without a break.
I found his daughter an activity group for 1p.m. - 4:30 every Monday!
I thought he was going to " guilt cycle " and come up with excuses to not sign her up.
He didn't and registered her. She is up there right now and he is working uninterrupted like a normal adult.
