I've even known therapists who will 'fire' their patients for not doing the work / being engaged in the process, so you wouldn't be out of line if you referred your lazy clients to someone else. That sounds like a huge energy drain that could legit burn you out, unless you can find a way to make peace with it! Definitely do what's best for yourself. ♡
Thanks!
Ha ha, yes, but I don’t think I’m gonna fire someone LOL, but I think I have to make it even more clear what they're supposed to prepare.
As an example, last weekend I gathered a bunch of clients for a posing/competition prep seminar and they’re all given certain things to prepare in advance. Then some of them show up without having prepared properly, meaning they can’t follow the class as it requires certain skills/things to be practiced in advance. Again meaning they’re fucking it up for the ones that actually have done their homework because I have to use extra time with them.

I want to buy something, I have no idea what, but I don't want to spend money at the same time. Soooo I'm online Xmas window shopping LOL.
I had a dream I was also locked out of my stripperweb account because I forgot the password, created another one with like two posts, and I'm still not sure if it is real or not. Dreams can feel so real sometimes. Hahaha!

Having a good night yesterday got me a rest day ( from club ).
High house fee so I feel like rest and then an attempt to hit Wed. hard was the best strategy .
Found a spa about 1:30 and still here at 6:25 ha!
I’ll have to leave sometime soon just out of hunger.

Oh ... and ... I’m on the fence about telling my local friend about dancing !
I feel like he wouldn’t care. I stay with him and one more local contact when I’m priced out of hotel options.
I’m a good guest ( always treat to a meal ect.) and share my AirBnB too in another area . I hate lying. Maybe I’ll just tell him and if he blabs to anyone just deny.

Tomorrow morning I go to the hospital for my Depo shot. It was supposed to be today, but they had to reschedule it at the last minute. I was in the middle of locking my front door and about to head to the bus stop when I got the phone call just in the nick of time. Cool, but PLEASE don't let any of my following appointments have to be rescheduled, and go on as planned...
December 27 I go back there to have a conversation with the doctor about the endometrial ablation, sign consent forms, and do bloodwork.
January 5 I go back there to do a required Covid test. They require that prior to all surgeries.
January 7 is my endometrial ablation, and someone has to drive me home afterwards. They will not allow me to leave by myself to get a bus or Lyft ride home. Gotta fast the night before at midnight. No water...no chewing gum...no allergy medicine...nothing.
January 26 I go back for my post-op followup.

Dress pants (or a skirt) and a nice blouse is fine. A formal dress can work if your shoulders are covered. Just make sure nothing is low cut or short.

HAHAHAHA! It's been a wonderful day! I am on my 3rd postponement of jury duty (I thought I only got two excuses). I was dreading wasting my time in court in January and I postponed it until the end of March!
I have these cute french bull dog pajamas I plan on wearing when I go so they know I'm serious....serious about not being a juror HAHA. This is the longest I've gone without being sent a jury summons in years. All this time I only had to continue postponing it! Hopefully I get a 4th postponement. I'm down to reschedule this until I'm 80.

I am watching Rockefeller Christmas. I really enjoy cheesy Christmas stuff. Reminds me of childhood.
I just got a flashback to last year I was working at a horrible place that cut the hours down I ended up quitting and was low on cash and annoyed. I feel better this year having moved out of my martial home. Even though I don't have my ex financially . I feel much better.

That sounds reasonable, I would think you're fine with anything conservative classic. And be sure to wear something you feel comfortable with, you need to look confident!

I can’t say too much but a while ago a patient (young woman) passed away during a routine breast augmentation surgery. Very sad story, but it’s now clear she had a serious underlying condition that she didn’t tell, or she didn’t know.

I've watched videos of people's dogs scared to go to the vet LOL. This is like a trip to disneyland for my dog once he enters the vets office because mister needy is getting all the attention he wants from people. I'm preparing to sit outside the vets office for 2 hours and find an uber willing to take my dog. I'm not fixing my car until school starts.
Kinda crazy they still aren't letting people inside the vets office in the waiting room. I may just go home after dropping him off or run errands since it is a long wait but I'm so glad I'm pushing myself to go because he's been needing to go for a while for his poor ears :(!

The vet by me opened up the lobby for everyone a couple of month ago. You are still required to wear a mask but that's ok because I wear one regardless.

I am actually going to a different vet in 2 hours (thankfully the previous one had their voicemail box full to the point you couldn't even call them) and I'm realizing it's all up to the businesses. The one I'm going to now at 2pm said I can sit on a bench outside as well as go straight into the room with my dog or sit in the waiting room but it's still a mask requirement. The fact this place even allows you in the room or inside is wonderful! I'm glad the 1st vets office I was supposed to has a full voicemail box now with no calls accepted. I think it's time for businesses to change their protocol. Covid isn't going away anytime soon.

Weee the veterinarian trip is over! Doggo needed 6 meds for his ears and eye. I loved being able to finally talk to an actual veterinarian during covid and not a vet tech who just took my dog away and decided what was best without me explaining his issues.
Mister needy dog (aka mister love bug) learned how to ride in the open back part of an suv trunk (obviously not a legit closed trunk). He's highly dog aggressive and of course bahahaha my first driver had his emotional support dog with him. I tried calling in advance and texting him if it was okay for a pit bull in the car with no response until he got here. Then he arrives with his dog and I'm thinking "Well what do we do now?" Wanting to back out. But we decided on a muzzle and stuck him in the open trunk and I held his leash.
I'm so grateful I am home now and relaxing. Going to the vet is never easy with him. LOLLLL I called my mom "You wouldn't believe what happened. My uber driver had a dog in his car." She said "Oh my god!" She's taken him to the vet before and knows how he is LOL.
But anyways, soo thankful for the very reasonable pricing and getting him help for his ears. :)! Kinda nervous about doing his eye drops. I've never done those before in a dog.

It’s kind of funny ( and not ) that I’m at 69% of this dancer trip earnings goal.

A couple days ago was my highest earning night in 2021.
I wish last night wasn’t such a spectacular shit show. :(

Those nights suck (do you mean the slow nights when nobody makes money?) Lol I've had ones in the past where we were comparing who made 100-120 bucks complaining in the dressing room because it was so dead LOL....or the worst part is approaching a regular to the club who is eating food and trying your best to squeeze a dance out of him on a dead night because there's not enough people lol.

^ It was just SO bad. A true waste of time.
It was cycling into negativity ( girls upset and not being discrete about it ).
:/
Yeah there wasn’t enough people so we were all approaching non spending turnips just because there was nothing else to do .
I’m new so I can’t recognize time wasters too which is a bummer.
After fees I left with $90 in 6 hours. :/
I might go get the rest tomorrow ( or try !) or just call it soon.
In this trip I hit my highest AND lowest shifts in 2021! Ha.

I don't want to jinx it but I may have a $1700 out of one of my Nov. leads very soon ( for day job ).
They really put me through the ringer last month lol.
I kept telling myself ..... just keep pushin ' on through Dec. 5 and back date that sales so it isn't a DISASTER .
Hopefully it won't be. If I can get them and maybe just *one* more I'd settle happy with November.
I'm VERY glad I increased my # of dancing shifts.
I am really tired of my day jobs customers moving at a snails pace.
At least I can attempt to hit goals from two angles instead of just going through the world in an agitated state haha. I can answer their endless back and forth questions AT the club if needed haha between dudes.
Update : They PAID! Nov. isn’t a huge disaster sticking a thorn in me ( wasn’t great but made min. goal ).

Has anyone been to the Green Door in Vegas ? I have heard some crazy characters are there . We don't swap but we like to be watched ( or we did in the only single other time we have done this ) so I figure even if some creepers are there ... well .... we can just make their day lol.

I'm sure you could arrange for something like this on Craigslist discretely, but not in an official venue and would likely be considered prostitution.

I'd be very wary of Craigslist, I had some scammers off there, (jobs & Apts) also some real creeps, but screen carefully if you do
There's been a few cl murders too. Beware

So...not sure where to post this. But I have been seeing health gurus as well as a ballerina on Only Fans (can't click into their content because I'm not paying and having to cancel before I get charged for the monthly subscription (I'm a saver LOL). Are these people treating this like youtube? I'm wanting to dive in and see how this goes. Obviously I don't want to pay to see another woman's content (plus everyone is different) but does anyone with Only Fans have anything they can say in detail about the site? I'm not okay with doing porn...I'm just curious of what this site is all about? Like are people just posting bikini videos, nude videos, partial nude, sex act videos that make the most money? Do you have to have a presence on social media for the most money? I feel like I've posted this before. I dunno, I'd rather do this during school than the stress of working weekends. It would be a nice side income as well.
Plus how do you know how much to charge? Is there a thread on this I missed?

Perhaps check the Starbucks menu with the calories n caffeine dosages. Here is one I found https://www.caffeineinformer.com/the-complete-guide-to-starbucks-caffeine
An average caffeinated drink is 30-50mg
And as long as you don’t go over 400mg in a day you’ll be fine but if you have a sensitivity to caffeine then you may want to keep it under 50mg (aka tea n decaf)
You can see if the can make mocha with decaf or get the smaller cup size which should have less caffeine.
I personally like the nitro cold brew with sweet cream. That has well over 200mg of caffeine. I usually end up drinking half of it early in the morning and I am still wide awake come late evening. I

PT weekend, he picked me up right after the court hearing yesterday and we are staying at a five star hotel in a nearby city. (BF has gone into a rhythm were he has been working (traveling away) appx two weekends each month. If it hadn’t been for the thing with PT, I’’d hated it. Now it opens up new possibilities, such as going on trips with PT without having to lie to BF and it’s far less risk he’ll become suspicious.)
PT has work to do daytime today, expecting him to be back latest 4pm.
As PT gradually wants more of my time, I wonder if I should try to rise my rates, but I’m not quite sure how to approach it. Don’t want to be too greedy either.
