My treadmill sit in my bedroom and for almost a year it has been doing nothing but collecting dust. Oh I dust it off often but I was just looking at the darn thing thinking I should really get back to working out. Then I would walk out of the room. So the other night my Dh said when are we going to get back to using the treadmill? He ask this question about once a month. I would say help yourself. LOL. This time instead of saying that or saying starting next week, I said tomorrow morning. Dh smiled and I am sure he thought to himself oh sure!! Seem we both need to inspire the other one to get on the darn thing. Dh always feels so much better when he uses the treadmill it help his bad knee by making the muscles stronger. However exercise is just not something either on of us likes to do.
However I did get on the treadmill on the next day. Dh was shocked and said ok now you did it so I guess I have to. LOL. So for two whole days now we are both getting back to working out. We both have to admit how much better we feel when we do. Why is it something that makes us both feel better and does help us to move better and feel stronger we just hate to do. Exercise is just the pits. Hate it so much!! I am going to stick with it this time!!
We will be going on a trip back to OH to see our Dd and her family the end of April for three weeks and Dh and I have promised each other to take a daily walk while we are gone, no excuses.

Oh Wow Mary, that is awesome!
I have been walking on my treadmill this week also.
Wow Mare awesome!
Hi Rj
Well girl it seems sometimes we just need a push. I was surprised myself when I actually got on the treadmill after Dh ask me again this last time
HI Suz
Ouch girl. My treadmill will not run if the safety switch is no plugged in and I have fallen on a treadmill before and gotten some nasty scrapes. I always remember to attach the leash to me so if I fall again it will shut off. That hurts I know.
Be careful now!!
HUGS
Hi Lor
Seems to have taken me a lot longer this time to get myself back to it. Going to do my best to just do it now. Even if it isn't something I love to do.
Hope you find something that works for you.
Love ya
Good for you, Mare! Ya know, I'm with ya. If it's not fun, I don't wanna do it and put it off as long as possible. In fact, the only exercise I like is either biking or swimming. I cancelled my Y membership because I was paying for it every month but not going. Too far to drive and I was babysitting too much. BUT I have been biking every day it's not below freezing here. It's so fun to ride around and look at everybody's yards right now with all the flowers and shrubs blooming.
I like walking, too, but always seem to have something else "that comes up."
Hugs, Red
Hi Red
I like riding a bike too. Haven't been on my bike since we moved to our home here. So wow about 3 years!! Getting almost to warm to ride except early in the morning but maybe I can motivate myself to do that? Might have to check my tires and see if I need to get new ones or can just air up the ones that are on the bike.
Good for you!
you are an inspiration!!
I did take a walk yesterday to the park at the other side of the lak with Abby
hugs!
