Today when I got to work it felt like it was going to be a good day. This morning I made the mistake of letting my roommate Darbi convince me to go to the gym with her. Today was leg day and as she explained, "friends don't let friends skip leg day." So I went. Now, Darbi is somewhat of a beast when it comes to the gym. So much, in fact, that she makes all us other girls want to go home and cry. She is that good. She pushed me so hard that I literally couldn't walk straight all day! My legs were so weak.
However, nothing feels as good as a good workout. When your body is pushed to the limit and you walk out of there knowing you just kicked some trash. Ya, that is nice. So when I got to work, I was stoked about life. Little did I know, we would be bowling. I love bowling so much, but the only thing I could think about was how much I wouldn't be sitting. The thought was terrible but justified. After 2 hours of nonstop helping clients bowl and taking them to the restroom I had not even had the chance to lean on a wall.
When the games were done the parents started coming to pick people up. One of my clients, the most chivalrous man I know, offered up a seat. It was the nicest thing ever. He had no idea that I was in such terrible pain, he was just trying to be nice. He achieved his goal. We could all do a little better about being nicer to others. I learn that everyday from my clients. I love them and consider each and every day with them a miracle. What a miracle!
