Tuesday - Muggy and rainy on and off
A good day.
I got up early-ish this morning but decided not to go out. It looked like it might rain outside and I didn’t want to get wet. I think it did rain a bit later so it was an okay call.
I was relaxing on the couch drinking tea and catching up with my TV programmes when F made a quick trip home. He was nice to me! I was really surprised. Anyway, I was nice back, and it didn’t seem like he was angry anymore. Hurray for that. After he left, I decided to do a workout. I did a longer one, the longest I’ve ever done to be honest. It was a Dance/walk workout and it was a bit difficult. I’m glad I did it, but right now I’m not quite there. However, I decided that when I do work out, I could probably do two shorter workouts, rather than one long one.
I had breakfast after my workout and a while later decided to take a shower too. I needed it!
In the afternoon, I had lunch of leftover duck breast and gouda on cheese crackers. Yum. Very nice!
I scanned my cards and then biked them off to the post office. For some reason, my Nike + Fuel app doesn’t seem to register my leg movements on my bicycle. I wonder if I need to wear my iPhone lower on my leg? Hmm.
I came home and after a while F called to say he was finished work. I got the table pre-set and when he came home we had an interesting fusion dinner of takenoko soup courtesy of his mother (yum), leftover chicken fajitas and salad. It was a really nice dinner and I enjoyed it. I made tea to have with dinner as well.
We had a fairly quiet but pleasant evening. I let F have the TV until 10 for Criminal Minds. I watched it and did up a square while I watched. 3 out of 5 done now. Woot! After Criminal Minds finished, I put on The Hudsucker Proxy. It was on WOWOW tonight. It was funny. F was laughing at parts of it too.
And that was it basically. It turned into a rather nice day after all. What will I get up to next? Come back and find out! Until tomorrow….

My Fitbit doesn't register bike pedaling either. Which is a shame because I'll often spend all day biking and still not have a good step count. Oh well, at least I know I exercised (so does my couch at the end of a long biking day).
I wore a different pair of pants today, and it did register. I think my jeans keep my iPhone up too high, my other pants let the phone move around with my leg. I'm not sure it is registering as much as I think it should, but it helps!
Do you like your FitBit? I'm considering getting one, but just am not sure.
Thanks for visiting :-)
I really like my Fitbit. I don't take advantage of all the web features, but like that the device itself shows my steps, the time, distance walked, and calories burned. Every day I try to burn more calories than I eat and this is the first pedometer I've had that lets me check calories burned.
I also like the badges I earn for distance. It is simple but effective in getting me to move more.
I also like that I can put it in a pocket or clip it to my bra when I don't have pockets.
I do find uploading to be a nuisance, but that's just me and my old computer. A new computer shouldn't have any problems.
Thanks! I like the clipping idea as I don't always have pockets.
I may have to get one!
I second the fitbit. I love mine. In addition to the fitness tracking, the single greatest feature to me is the silent alarm. It is worth the price for this feature alone. When I have to get up early I can now do so without disturbing my wife or our son. Awesome device. In a few product generations, I may consider replacing it with an Apple watch, when it's battery life improves beyond a day and the price drops drastically, but for now the fitbit is the way to go.
Thanks David! I had no idea about the silent alarm. I can see how that would come in handy.
I think I'll wait on the Apple watch for a while too!
Thanks for visiting today :-)
