Gaining a little weight?

Well, it happened again, a well meaning friend grabbed my hand and said, "Kim, you are gaining weight!" I tried to tell her that I am about the same size as usual, but she disagreed and said that it looked good on me...( maybe that is supposed to help?)
Yeah, it felt just like you would think it would feel hearing those words coming from someone you know. BUT, she meant this as a compliment, here in Ukraine this is a compliment....never mind that the fact remains that she thinks I have put on some weight.
So, I walked around yesterday feeling a little heavy...

But, walk is what I did. I have a new friend that needs to have someone listen. I am getting really good at listening. And what goes better with talking and listening, but walking?
Much of our everyday life is about relationship building. It comes in many forms...
We want to make a difference here, where we live.
Thanks for remembering us while you are making a difference where you live!
