This is for my steps tracked on 30 Aug, but there was a glitch that prevented me posting. Hopefully, the Actifit team will find the cause, in the meantime, I’ll post manually. I wanted to make sure I didn’t miss a day for now. The screenshots of my tracker at the bottom.
So it was a busy day, I started a little behind and spent most of it catching up. It was past 9PM and I was less than 4K. I could have honesty called it an early night and steemit until I fell asleep.
Instead, I wrote parts of this on the cross trainer/elliptical. So that’s me multitasking; I’m working on my actifit steps 15k target.
So what made me laugh today...
The two young ladies I sit with and have mentioned previously are so much fun. Especially since I discovered they both enjoy the steamier romance novels. I love women who aren’t afraid to admit that they love ‘naughty’ books. It’s good to have a chuckle about it with readers who get it. Today, I wanted to clarify the steam level of the books they preferred. I read across all sub-genres, so when I encounter a reader of romance, I need to clarify before I make recommendations. It would seem one of the very organized and sensible ladies was into 80s bodice ripper romances. So that sparked more laughter.
What made me thoughtful...
There’s this lady at work I like to call ‘The Doll Lady’. I’m terrible with names. If I don’t say or see your name at least once a day, you can guarantee I’d have forgotten it. Anyway, we bumped into each other and she told me she was going to take a picture of her dolls for me. She has a pink room that is for displaying her doll collection. Today, she surprised me by offering to let me take a doll home for my girls to play with. I’d never want to do that! My daughters would damage them. After more conversation, she said, “Well, I’ve come to accept I won’t be having children. It’s just not going to happen. I’ve been thinking about all the things I own that can be enjoyed by other people’s children.”
I’m quite fascinated by this lady and I’ve always enjoyed her quirky energy when we talked. This conversation had me thinking I should make more of an effort to befriend her. We’re just both so busy.
