Wow! That moment when I noticed my "followers" number was 1,007...

I was surprised to see my followers count at 1,007 and a wave of gratitude swept over me. It had been a couple months since I participated on Steemit. I'm un(der)employed and doing gig work to earn money. I took a break from Steemit because my time spent on the platform has not been profitable and my goal to pay off debt feels urgent. When I finally logged back in I did a "double-take" at my followers count. It was growing while I was living my offline life... Ok, that's my story. Now, let's get on to the fun!

Surpassing 1,000 feels significant and I want to recognize the milestone by interacting with my followers and sharing SBD. My wallet currently has 6.296 SBD. It's not a lot, yet it's enough to give a gift of gratitude. I'll promise at least 3 SBD to the winning participant in this contest; more may be added from the post's earnings.

ENTER TO WIN by completing three actions:

1. Check that you are following @mininthecity
2. Resteem and Upvote this post (before the post payout).

I'll assign each entry a number and randomly select a winning number after the post payout.

When I reached 300 followers I hosted my first contest, asking each Steemian to share one word. We had a lot of fun and learned about each other.

Now choose one word that describes you and post a comment!

I'll get it started with my word...
