Hi all!

Today was a busy day, with 3 - 4 castings for my son. Luckily they were at only 2 agencies in the same neighborhood. Thanks to MIL still being here, I didn't have to take the lil girl. We got several increments of walking done between the bus stops and the castings and walking home from having lunch downtown. Better than nothing. Similar day scheduled for tomorrow, except to only one location, but I'll be tot-carrying tomorrow, as MIL will be flying home.

Small NSV: while waiting at the 2nd casting, a man and I chatted for about 20 minutes and he eventually asked me if I worked out. As I didn't quite understand his question at first (I thought he asked if I work), I didn't give much of an answer, but when he mentioned my "physique" and asked if I was an athlete, perhaps played basketball or if it was just "natural", I finally understood and just added that I tried to work out to lose weight I gained with my daughter. He was very nice to say, "Well whatever it is, it is working." :-) I must say, I was "blindsided" by his question...I couldn't even imagine being asked in that regard, so I just assumed he was asking something else. Seeing as how I've been "in a holding pattern" for over a month (not ~really~ working out since that first heatwave & my son finished school, then also my MIL's arrival, all while STILL eating like a fiend to try to maintain my metabolism! ), it was very, VERY unexpected and very nice to know I'm not "losing" all my fitness gains in these weeks.


Hope you are all having a great Monday!
