Judging from my increasing waistline, I have decided to start exercising. The problem with that is two-fold. First I am on a very limited budget. Not having a regular income coming in, I hesitate to commit myself to a year long gym membership. Although some memberships are only $10 per month, one month I might actually need that $10 to buy myself that case of ramen noodles!!
The next problem is, I will be motivated for about 2 weeks, then I will come up with every excuse not to go. It's cold out, I'm tired, I have a TV show on, I need to stop and get gas in my car first, etc. If I had a gym partner to join me, I might consider it. But the problem with that is, I get bored about 1pm and that is the time I would like to go. But everyone I know has a job and is working at 1pm! If I wait until 5pm to join my partner, the gym would be too busy for my liking and that would be yet another excuse not to go.
So I have come up with a great solution to get a little exercise in. Thanks to my sister, I have become an infamous mall walker!! Am I one of the youngest ones there walking? Why yes I am. Do I have the most up to date sneakers? Again, yes I do. Can I keep up with the retireees when I am walking......well they all blow right past me. But I still have cooler shoes!
Once the weather gets nice, we could always walk, run, bike, etc on the bike path at the peninsula :-). You, Nancy and me should get together and do that once spring/summer comes :-).
ReplyDeleteSounds great Erinn. I got my dog all of her lyme disease shots so she could walk at the penninsula too!
