On fitness...

The drawing is a gift to @actifit-peter (aka @peter2017) in celebration of his 100th actifit post

I originally drew this because of an actifit report he posted that included a Max Raabe music clip:

I listened it and thought it captured the happiness bikes give us. Note: I did not understand a word, but the drawing was how I imagined Peter to be if he was also riding in the clip. Of course, unlike how I drew him, I’m sure he’d be watching where he’s going! I added the dinosaur, because apparently, Peter came into existence from a pre-historic egg. I added the balloons today for his wonderful achievement.

From my observation, Peter works hard in consistently getting his steps, adding interesting photos, and giving us entertaining snippets. He’s also one of the many steemians who put in the extra effort to translate the posts for us English speakers. I’m always appreciative, and feel that extra care adds personalisation and a lovely dimension to his words. I enjoy his actifit reports whether he’s talking about aliens, empty park benches or weed growing in between the cracks of cement...I hope others drop in and visit his posts. He’s a wonderful contributor to the @actifit community.

So congrats again, Peter!! Now would you take a break from the Top 10 podium and give someone else a chance?! :P

Thanks to catching @stormykar’s latest actifit report, lazy me got inspired to catch some actifit steps. I was going to skip today, but I squeezed in a 10km jog before it got dark. Looking at my records, I’ve ran 48km in the last 4 days, so the left knee wasn’t happy. Tomorrow’s a public holiday for us and I was planning to attempt an 18km run. I think my knee and hip might say no. :(

On writing...

I wrote. I fell asleep a few times in between writes. Had a terrible dream about a crow which freaked me out. Shrugged that off and wrote some more. I’m still at the 3000-word mark, definitely a dismal effort compared to other more productive NaNoWriMo participants. But I’m happy I have new material. I’ve mostly been shaping out the culture of the Gods in my world and the nature of cursed weapons. I’m re-editing too much though.

Today, my MC said something non-PC. I loath to remove it, because it’s him being him. I have this great fear of my male characters sounding like a woman pretending to be a man. Anyway, he’s far from perfect and he would say stuff that would offend. So I read it to my husband. He burst out laughing but agreed it was non-PC too. He didn’t think it needed to be edited out though...For now, I’ll leave it in and see how I feel.
