Hey Steemians,

Excellent news from me today !! Thanks to @soundwavesphoton competition, I won some Steem and finally had enough to get off delegation!!! Woohooo!!! It's been only about a month and a half of being really active, but it felt like a really long journey!! I have met so many cool peeps along the way, and this is just a little post to give thanks to those that helped me along the way!

Giving Thanks to My Steem Heroes

It All Began with @Chekohler

3 months ago, @Chekohler introduced me to Steemit! Telling me about this fresh new platform, that pays you to blog and rewards you for sharing your opinion. I had a look, thought it could be fun and registered. After what felt like an eternity, my account got approved, and the legend of @mimismartypants started to unfold!

A bit hesitant at first, but Che provided so much support and hand holding. Answering all my questions like "What is SP?", "Why does no one like my posts?" "Discord?". If it weren't for his support and guidance, I would have probably abandoned ship a long time ago! Thanks to him, I'm a bit of an addict! Thanks so much @Chekohler! You are a true legend!!

Then Miss @Dreemsteem Stalked at It All Exploded

I like to think she stalked me, but the truth of the matter I probably stalked her! And being the open and forthcoming person she is, saw something strange in me and of course had to adopt me!

Funny it all started with a post about the razor, which led me to start a convo with her and follow her. We engaged we laughed, and she recruited me into the @welcomewagon, with her fellow crew @bluefinstudios and @saffisara! They schooled me for about a week and let me back into the wild!

That was 3 weeks, and I'm still meeting new peeps in the wagon!! All I can say is they are a crazy bunch and all probably need therapy, but then again, so do I!! So it Feels like Home!! Big Thanks to the @Welcomewagon team for taking me in and of course @Dreemsteem being the coolest and showing me the ropes!! Much love to all you guys!

I Couldn't Have Done I Without Gifts and The Prizes

For weeks I felt like I was going nowhere slowly! Until I won some competitions and some cool peeps gifted me with some great tools! Here's a shoutout to all of you!

  1. To @penderis and @chekholer for the @dustsweeper subs.
  2. To @braaiboy for the @moonbot sub!
  3. To @dreemsteem for the @strongtower votes and of course the Dreemies!
  4. @thedailysneak for my very first SBI share!! Now I know why Steembasic income is soooo amazing!
  5. To @soundwavesphoton and his awesome Inspirobot Contest, Thanks for Making me Rich AF.
  6. To @schoolofminnows for the much-needed boost and support!
  7. To @paulag and the Red Fish Power Up League, for giving me the motivation to push a little bit more!
  8. To @rentmoney for all those post promotions.
  9. To @abh12345 and The Curation and Engagement League for encouraging me to up my engagement game!
  10. To @eveningart for all the tips
  11. To @snook for my latest SBI prize, can't wait till it kicks in!

Lastly, Thanks to all you Steemians for all your support! I could not have got this far without you! And to all the fantastic people I have met thus far, Thanks for making the journey so fun! For those I have yet to encounter, I look forward to reading you!

Much Love From Sunny Cape Town, @mimismartypants

I have to say a BIG thank you to you....

I'm so glad that you encouraged her to come to Steemit! And helped her in the beginning when it was rocky! We lose so many AMAZING people that way - because they're this shining light that gets dimmed more and more while they wander and get lost on Steemit!

Because of you- we have our @mimismartypants in the WW family :)
and we're extremely grateful - cuz she is a prize!

You’re too kind! I’ve had to learn how to steemit the hard way since I didn’t know anyone on the platform and building an audience and getting payouts was tough so I realize the struggle! I’ve tried to recruit people to steemit and don’t want them to suffer the way I did! All about sharing and leaning and growing the community for the greater good!

Couldn't agree more!!!! :) When more people think like you - we'll see a clear change on Steemit! I fully believe it <3

hahahhahahahaha! Watch out for this one @chekohler! I was not joking about @dreemsteem being a stalker!

whooooooooooooo meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee???????

LOLOLOL

See what i mean!!! Lol

LOL, sooo far but I'm right behind you! Speaking of which you 30 SP away!!! Come on, dude! This is your month! Watching closely!!

Thanks again for all your help buddy! I really could not have done it without all your Steem wisdom!

Awwwwwwwwwwww the famous razor post!!!! hehehehehe

I just changed the head on it and it is GLORIOUS once again. My gosh - if you still haven't tried it - @mimismartypants. YOU MUST!!!!!!!!

It is like silk - gliding over your legs. and magically - smooth smooth leggies. hehehehehe

It was a blast to stalk you! hehehehe and it STILL is. Your sense of humor is wickedly tart and satisfying. a little bit like a Lemonhead candy mmmmmmmmmmm ;)

and even in your top 11 thanks yous... i see SO many more from WW in there - which makes me thrilled. The most generous and genuine peeps on Steemit (in my humble opinion)

and we ABSOLUTELY need therapy. Do you think we could get a group rate if we use the same therapist?

I guarantee you - when he/she was finished with us...... HE/SHE would need therapy.

to which we would all casually reply.... "Welcome to our world."

tee hee heeeeeeeeeeeeee! :)

Thanks, @dreemsteem! And thanks again for all your support!

I need to get my hands on one of these razors then lol!! Sounds as life-changing as SBI!!

I can honestly say, no one has ever described me as Lemmon head candy, but I like it!!! LOL, I also generally choose the green jelly sweets in the bags, so I guess its kind of a sign (or I'm just looking for connections here!).

WW family definitely rocks. Although I'm pretty confident the therapist will give us our money back and a lot extra just to stay away!

oh my gosh - the spearmint leaves?!?!?!?!?!

they are the BEST!!!!!!!!! but i get migraines when i eat them (or spearmint gum) i can't believe it... like spearmint??? why!!!!

the therapist better just sit back and buckle up.

(and used the razor today and thought of you the whole time. creepy??? i think not.)

Lol no spearmint leaves. Just jelly sweets, like gummies, what do you guys call them down there lol

Weird. I heard spearmint headaches can be traced to lack of gluten!

Lol re razor. A little creepy. The therapist has their job cut out for them. #prayfortherapist

awesome - what a fantastic start. Keep up the awesome work and thank you so much for the mention :-)

Thanks @paulag!! baby steps but I'm getting there! Thanks for all your support! I really do appreciate it!

onward and upwards

Aw yay! Congratulations, that's the best news. Good for you for sticking it out and getting to this point- especially at a point where Steem feels hard to come by and slow to build.

Thank you for the shoutout- but every single tip is because I love your posts. You earn them. I love your writing, your wit and your energy - keep doing what you're doing, keep being you. Big love, e x

Thanks so much lady!! It means alot!! Onwards and upwards!

That's a big milestone, and surely a turning point to keep you moving forward. Keep working hard at the posts - and comments of course and you will see more progress still. It is really so hard to start out on here, and you have already found so many communities and engagement that I am sure you will go far.
