Denial ain't just a river...

Oh God I'm out of shape. 10 minutes on the new toy damn near kills me. I used to be able to do 30 with ease. I can avoid full-length mirrors, avoid the section of my closet with the clothes that do not fit, and tell myself that I'm Fine, just FINE! But the Nordic Track, she does not lie. I am horribly out of shape, the intermittent trips to the gym have not been enough to maintain, let alone improve, my condition. Boy, did I need this thing.

It does need a base under it, I'm concerned that the flexing of the carpet will cause it to wear out prematurely (the elliptical trainer, not the carpet). Must call Boy and send him on a Mission to Home Despot this weekend. He'll regret buying that beater truck - Mom has plans for it.

  1. My sister, who is 10 years older than I am, and I went on a little vacation to Portland, Or this weekend, and we walked and walked and walked. It really brings home the truth. I can't even say that I am out of shape. I don't know if I have ever been in shape, but I am going to walk all over my new little town. But I am starting here, soon, so it will be easier when I move.

    The beads are very cute.
