I wrote a post in the morning! But I wasn’t able to finish it until half an hour ago. @beelzael/do-you-sing-praise" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Click here to get to it, on my main account. Why is that important? Because I don’t write as much anymore. I do write this diary, which helps and got me back into it. But there was a time when I didn’t write anymore, a couple of months ago. And I enjoy writing, and I think I need it to some degree. To get my thoughts in order and such. So, I’m glad I got that done in the morning. Mostly.
And then Ellie came by in the early morning, which is always a treat. She has to get up very early to get her kid ready to school, so she usually goes to bed again after that and since she’s going to a new gym that is next door to her place, we don’t really see each other in the morning. Except for when she comes over, like today. Which totally merits me getting up early, too, and prepare a salad for her (she loves salad).
Gym was good today, arms. I did the regular routine, without upping weights – I just did 2 weeks ago, and still have to beat the 30kg bar for biceps training. I get 5-6 repetitions right, but the last two I still miss, swinging the body too much to get them up. I’ll get there.
I had a surprise call in the morning by Ellie’s boss who needed a translator for technical tax stuff – here in Ecuador. I know it’s tax day in the US, so I was surprised, but he was talking about something here. So I not only translated, but discussed and sought solutions with the corporate lawyer and the accountant here in Ecuador. That was SO much fun, it’s been a while since my brain was that challenged. And it gave me good insights.
I planted some dill seeds – it finally started raining! @silvertop, the drought-electricity crisis feels a little further away now :-P And I went to a self-defense training with Ellie’s daughter. She’s 15 and very beautiful (comes after the mother…) and I really want her to be able to defend herself at least somewhat. She said she liked it, and if she can plan it into her calendar, she’d like to participate. I’d like to do so, too, and at least until Lily is back I can do so.
So far for today. Have a wonderful night!
