Musings from...the Diary of Regina the Reluctant Fitbit

Day 3...It just keeps getting worse and worse.  Now she has me working on the nightshift, tracking her sleep patterns!  After the last two nights, it is no wonder she has these horrible raccoon eyes...she tosses and turns about half the time. 

No "winter mix" last night so,  again this morning she hauls me off to the mall.  Sure wish I was living in Minot, ND! No way would she ever get out in that cold!   To make matters worse look at the first sight I see. 




I am thinking that if the plants are covered INSIDE the mall, it must be too cold.  Let's turn around and go home girl!

But...on she goes...she even walked EXTRA today.  But I got her back.  She forgot to pack her work shoes and was reduced to wearing these little ballet slippers she keeps in her desk drawer for when her tootsies are too tired for heels.  Bwah ha ha!



Tomorrow I hope to encourage her to take up swimming - she can't wear me in the pool and maybe I can get some rest.

Musings from...The Diary of Regina the Reluctant Fitbit

Oh good grief!  She went and named me.  It's just like a stray dog...once they name you, they are doing to KEEP you.  I'll never get away.  I thought I had her this morning.  She was moving really slowly and seemed tired.  I was hoping that she had mistakenly taken Advil PM instead of her morning dose of regular Advil, but I wasn't that lucky...  About halfway through the grind she met up with a fellow mall walker and perked up.  Yeah...if I remember correctly, it was this fellow mall walker that first waxed eloquently about  whatever tracker she has.  That does it, if I see that woman tomorrow I am going to trip her good!

Day 2. I thought if I stopped working in the middle of the day yesterday, she would give up, but I'm not so lucky. Drat that google. She figured out how to fix me and kept me moving. So, I tried sweating thinking that she might rip me off in irritation and I could take a nap, but no such luck. She merely loosened me up and kept on going. I heard that cold weather is moving in tonight. Is it wrong to pray for an ice day? Oh no....she is headed for the mall...save yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Musings from....day 1 with a fitbit

How quickly we go from "oh my gosh! look how many steps I've walked just getting dressed this morning. This is going to be so easy!" to "stupid thing must be broken. I can't believe I haven't walked more steps than this". Stay tuned for more adventures with Leslie and her fit bit...
