To the gym!
I went to the gym this afternoon after probably a month without, the longest gym-free span in a year and a half. I was lazy, and the gym seemed so far away, and it was all hot outside and stuff.
So I went today and read one People magazine featuring an exclusive interview with post-jail Paris Hilton, and brought home the latest People for next time, and the August issue of Marie Claire to read at home.
I was surprised to see that their scale said I had only gained 1.5 pounds since I last weighed myself on it. I feel pudgier and sluggish and it’s definitely time to start going back. Exercise every day is essential for a healthy body and mind. It’s not as convenient now that my work moved to a new location. Maybe my next big purchase will be an elliptical machine, which I will use most days in the comfort of my own home. I don’t know where it would go, though. In the living room? Wedged in a corner of the bedroom? Out on the balcony starting in the fall?
If I lived in a three bedroom house we could each have our own work rooms. He’d have an office space to himself, and I would have a room with a desk, my sewing machine and supplies, and an elliptical machine.
Note: search for housing rentals. Must allow dogs. 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom. Fenced yard & doggy door ideal. Garage or carport optional.

I haven’t been to the gym in more like 3 months. You think YOU are feeling chubby?!
We did just buy a treadmill though, and it should be arriving within a week or so. I can hardly wait! Especially if it has one of those little ledges on the top for books…
