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.

HI Cappy


I found that joining a gym doesn't make me go I just end up wasting my money. So far have been on the treadmill everyday. Trying to figure out why I don't need to do it today. LOL However I cannot come up with a good reason. Guess I will do that as soon as I finish up here.


Love ya
