Workout, football, meeting with the fitness community executives, collecting the Steemit meetup t-shirts and more

Dear diary, it's been a long while since I wrote you. I had been longing to write but time will fail me whenever I want to. Sometimes I will start and not complete it. But I am glad that I am here now to write about the events that took place today which includes going out for workout and training@goodybest, playing football, attending meeting with the fitness community executives, and visiting the workshop where our Steemit meetup t-shirts are being printed for collection and other things which I will detail below.

It was really an interesting day for me and I couldn't hold it to myself alone but to have to share it.

I woke up finally by 4:50 am and went through Steemit to check on notifications, then on steem kids and parents to make sure that the mod on duty had completed his review for the previous day. I also went to the WhatsApp group of the mods for steem kids and parents to notify the next mod on duty and to appreciate the one that just conclusions duties. The screenshot below says it all

Then, I said my personal prayers before it was 5:30 am when the family is supposed to have her worming worship. I went out for it. Then, then kids started getting ready for school while I was getting ready to move out. They only had to sweep, boil water for their shower and then eat and go to school. Food was already available for them.

I quickly got dressed and left by 6:25 am. I walked down the street in search of a Motor bike to join to the junction. Luckily, I saw a neighbour with a ladies motorbike who tooke to the junction. It was for free. I was very grateful to him because he just saved me from spending N300 which is the equivalent of a steem at the current price.

As soon as I got down, I jogged to the playground. Because I jogged, I only spent 5 minutes to get there from our junction.

I got there first before everyone else. It wasn't long when others started coming. At least, I started the programs of the day with 2 persons before others joined.

We focused on the programs for this week which is quest for stronger legs according to the fitness engagement challenge for this week.

But we first of all did warmup and cardio at the same time before the programs began.

The first program was the leg raises which involved stepping on a higher level and down. We stepped 20 times on each leg and for 10 repetitions. It really gave us tough time but we completed it.

Then we moved to the next until we were done and we stretched by 8:05 am. We then started the football game.

Football ⚽⚽⚽ game

The jersey for this football was not ready as I washed it after our holiday football game Monday. I communicated to the members that I am not sure we will play since the jersey was still wet.

However, we decided to play without it. @allison, @kidi40 and others were on one side while I and others were on the other side. They were the first to score a goal but we replied it to equalise it. They made sevel attempts score again but it wasn't possible. I was the keeper today. They couldn't score again as well as us before the match ended.

It was while still playing the football game that @goodybest came around to be trained. I trained her after our football game. I remembered that I had appointment with the executives of the Akwaibom State fitness community today by 11 am. Yes, I was to be introduced to the executives today because I joined them.

Meeting with the executives of the fitness community here in my state

Recognizing the importance of belonging to the fitness community as an instructor, I made every efforts to raise the amount they had asked me to pay before I could be welcomed.

I was in touch with their President who gave me details of what they require and I paid them last week. He then invited to their meeting today being wednesday 25th for introduction and welcoming.

I was able to meet them. The President welcomed me, introduced me to all the executives present and told the secretary to help me understand something's about the body.

After much questions and explanations, the president

The screenshots below represent my conversations with the president of the body .

I was later told of their bylaws which they will give me a copy, of their identity card which they will also give me a copy and their t-shirts which I will get one soon. I was told of their code of conducts and the protection that comes to me from the body.

I as well explained my own stands on some issues they raised. In a nutshell, I was warmly welcomed.

I took this picture above while still in the meeting. And I left afterwards because their executive meeting wasn't over yet and I couldn't wait. I was very hungry. That was already past 1 pm.

Leaving their, I went straight back to our junction to take a fitness t-shirt of one of my client t that needed to be amended which I forgot on my way out. I took it and went to meet the tailor and printer that is getting both the Steemit t-shirt ready and who always prints our t-shirts for fitness.

I saw him and guess what? Our Steemit national meetup t-shirts are ready for those who belong to the first batch and who already paid. I will be making the update post soon. But below is myself on my own t-shirt

I only got to my house by 3pm because I had delays at the t-shirt workshop. I was so tired but I was refreshed after food. I ate afang soup and garri. Then I washed my clothes.

Next was our family worship evening. Yes, the family has the custom of meeting together for worship every Wednesday evening to discuss things relating to her spirituality and to strengthen and encourage every member to remain strong in the faith. We also considered the assigned Bible portions for next week's midweek meeting and reviewed meeting parts.

We began with prayer and ended with prayer. We concluded after an hour before we dispersed for other chores including getting some grass for the rabbits, visiting someone that armed robbers shot at but the bullet didn't really harm him.

Well, talking of armed robbery attacks, it's becoming alarming the way they are robbing in my neighborhood. We had security group in my area but it was dissolved because the village said they have employed stricter measures in their own way which I can't explain. It seemed to be the best way but after just about a month, it looked as if those armed men or marauders have understood their measures and are now operating as they wish.

We pray that other stricter measures be employed soon for our safety because we now live in fear.

That was all I can remember that happened within the day.

I don't want to talk about the rate at which the cost of petrol in tripling on daily basis which has affected everything we do here in my city. Transportation cost is tripped as a result as well as foodstuffs. It is now difficult to move about, it is difficult to eat, it is difficult to survive at the moment. But, we keep pushing with the help of the Almighty. Imagine if I have to pay for house rent at this critical time? Hmmmmm, it would have been very difficult to survive. I am grateful to the Almighty for the provision of shelter. He is also helping us to survive. We will all keep trusting him and keep doing our best too by seriously simplifying our lives. Nigerians are really suffering.

Thank you dear diary for your patience. See you in my next diary
