Hi everyone,
I'm sure we have all experienced this stupidity at one time or another. Yesterday I finished the cool-down about 2 minutes before the kindergarten bus was scheduled to arrive, so I threw on my coat and ran out to the curb in front of my house. The bus driver, said in such a nasty voice "why in the world are you dressed like that?" I had on shorts, t-shirt, socks, and shoes, with a winter coat over. I was only out there for 2 seconds, so it was no big deal. I said to her in a fake sweet voice "because I was exercising". What I was thinking was "becasue I thought all the stay at home moms in my neighborhood would enjoy seeing my hairy legs,and I knew, instinctively, that it would somehow piss you off".
Some people have a strange hostility toward people who exercise, and I don't get it. My sister in law will say "Why are you exercising AGAIN? Do you do it EVERY day?" As though it's just too ridiculous fo her to comprehend. My mother in law will call at 10am, which is when I exercise, and be irritated that I ask to call her back. These strange people act like it's an unhealthy thing to do. I just had to get this off my chest, and am glad I have you who understand.
Have a wonderful day!
Dawn
