listening for gist

Explanation:

Here Sheila is listening to get the gist of how you actually spent your day. Sheila is listening to get the main idea of your explanation on how your day went. Here she filters all the details and says, "aha", "yes" in acknowledgement while she tries to figure out "the highlights" of your day-to-day what actually summarized your day according to your explanations to her.
