Amusements

So doing the 10,000 steps has given me a different perspective.  Having the littles means I make a lot of laps around the apartment complex to get the steps in.  I found that I had a whole bunch of new neighbors.  There are only six families left that were here when we moved in two years ago.  I know apartment living is transient, but this surprised me.
One of my new neighbors has a child who is sneaking out.  Funny how that screen is out and hiding behind one of the bushes along a fence.  And then if you walk in the day time you can see the hand prints where the window gets pushed open.  Still wondering if I should say something to her mom or not.
Another new family blocked their bedroom windows with cardboard.  That one comes across a bit strange.  I understand not wanting people to be able to see in.  But they can't see out either.  There are other neighbors who have just put a curtain up with the blind and that blocks all things pretty well and still leaves a way for looking out.
I get lost in my brain while walking.  Making lists.  Thinking about life.  Then I lose track of how many laps I have made.  Too funny.  It always works out that I get my steps in, but I find it amusing when I lose track and I only do 4 to 6 laps at a time.
I find myself talking to neighbors again.  I kind of had a period of hibernation as I usually do in the winter.  Walking means I'm out there at all times of the day.  So I say hey, hi, hello, howdy.  And then we go from there.
