Hit my first 100 customer milestone on Tuesday

I run a small cleaning service in Portland and Tuesday was the first day I hit 100 houses cleaned since I started. It felt surreal because I almost gave up back in March when I only had 3 clients. What made it stand out was that my last customer of the day handed me a $20 tip and said I saved her from a nervous breakdown before her in-laws visit. Has anyone else hit a random number milestone that caught them off guard?

100 clients is a solid number but that breakdown tip is the real win.

That "saved her from a nervous breakdown" part is wild... my last client handed me a tip so I'd promise not to tell anyone she had four cats living in a one-bedroom apartment.

Wait, four cats in a one-bedroom isn't that bad, is it? lol I feel like that's a pretty normal cat owner thing, not some huge secret to pay for.
