Not so much that I don’t like them, but somehow they don’t live up to their promise.
Have a listen to the Boomtown Rats while I explain…
Today’s a Monday, the first day of a brand new week, full of sparkling promise. The week I’m on top of things and cross things off my To Do list and feel like I’m making progress.
I start the day with teaching my arthritis exercise class.
Here’s a riddle for you – what’s the difference between taking a community exercise class and posting on Steemit? Nothing – they’re exactly the same. You only get rewarded for the part that’s seen, and nobody would have any idea how much goes on behind the scenes. But you do it anyway, because you love it. (Actually that could apply to my natural health business too, and really, any small business owner’s job.)
Sometimes I spend hours in the week making up new exercise routines, and putting them together in different combinations. Thankless work? Unnecessary work? Maybe. But it’s not just to make the classes more interesting for my ladies and gents, but also to make them more interesting for me. I've been taking the class for nearly 11 years, and I'm starting to get a bored with some of the songs...
For June, I put together a whole new routine based on Broadway – with songs from Carousel, Sweet Charity, My Fair Lady, Les Mis and more. Who did I do it for? Let’s be honest – for me. If they get a buzz out of it too, that’s a bonus.
Check out some of my other posts about the arthritis mobilisation exercise class:
• Seated exercise – legs
• Seated exercise – head & shoulders
So anyway…
By the time I got back from that, and had something to eat, cos there was no time beforehand, it was midday. Right! Let’s get this week underway. Today I want to:
• Do the packing slips, so @sift666 can send out today’s orders
• Get some paperwork entered into MYOB, so I can do some orders for incoming stock
• Do some computer work with Sift – some on our business, but also some updates on our crypto wallets and some Steemit stuff
• Do some work on the website I’m putting together for @andysantics48’s new business
• Do a Steemit post, answer all my comments and do a spot of reading and upvoting
That’s not an unreasonable list, right?
Bahahahaha!
It’s after 7pm. I’ve done 1, part of 2, and am working on 5. Where did the day go?
Tomorrow is another day, thankfully.
Though tomorrow we’re taking @sift666’s mum out for her birthday lunch, so I’m not holding out much hope for productivity. I’d better write “Have an enjoyable and leisurely lunch” on my To Do list, so I can cross something off it.
Thanks for reading
