Time flies by. My Actifit Diary: July 10 2026

A mixed day. Maybe positive. Early up, rise and shine, very good and focused workout at the gym. Kami was on time - no, early, she emphasized that as I always make fun of her and her mother being late (easy as a German towards Ecuadorians).

I had sent her all the recipes and such, but the lack of experience caused significant delay in production, and I did have to step in and help. Next time will go better.

Coffee with my host sister at 3pm. She's my age, and it was great to talk to her. She's going through problems with her daughter's father, which is a great mirror for me. I wrote a post about that.

I delayed the beginning of my participation in the Jamsession because a friend had put down his cat. We spent some time and talked about everything else but. After the jam, Ellie wanted to discuss something, but it was more an offloading. I think I'm at the point where I can handle all that. Which is good.

.

There's a difference between taking things as personal burden and being empathetic. I'm making progress on that. Drawing the line differently, being empathetic in a way that won't hurt myself. Something to think and feel about.

Have a good night and thank you for reading!

Sometimes people just need someone to listen. They don't need you to take on their issues or anything. It is good you were able to listen to her offload. I am sure she appreciated it.

It does sound like you had a good day overall. I am happy for you.

Absolutely, and I'm glad to do so. But when someone tells me they want to discuss something, than I expect something more interactive. As opposed to "I'd liked to talk with you". But I get it, too, sometimes we don't know what we actually want until in the middle of it.
