This morning I took my car in to be worked on, something about a "rack and pinion" - OY! The garage is only 1/2 mile from my office and I had on my running shoes since I had just left the gym, perfect time to walk. I was carrying a bag and a smoothie so it was clearly evident I wasn't out exercising. But I did think it odd that I received calls and texts asking me if I was ok and did I need a ride?
I'm very thankful friends were so concerned, but isn't it odd that walking a short distance could cause so much concern? Somehow this makes me think about if you park at the far end of the parking lot at the grocery, people are sure you must really like your car. I do love the fitness buffs who come to the gym to work out, yet they try to get the parking space closest to the door. Anyway, if I were in NYC no one would think me weird. But, in Nashville in the middle of Green Hills I'm weird and it was so much easier to walk, rather than to fight the traffic in my car. And I didn't need to search for a parking space to get that cup of coffee!
Enjoy your day, think good thoughts and enjoy that next cup of Joe. S
