I asked for a treadmill for Christmas but didn’t get it. I’m not one to go to the gym and our weather is either too cold or too hot outdoors, not much in the middle. This week we’re going to jump from a high of 55 to 77 .
I had one at home but my dad would not let me bring it. Grrr He said we did not have the room. We did. Oh well. I walked for years in the freezing and smoldering weather which could have something to do with the issues I have with my knees. A controlled climate is much better IMO.

The gym I go to is only 3 1/2 miles away. Technically, I could walk there. I just like it because it gives me something to look forward to and only costs $10 a month. I could even save a little bit because it is $120 for the year. I might do that next time.

I have just one move left in me so when I get to my final abode, I will look at getting a treadmill again. I like them. A wonderful place to read and clothes stay wrinkle-free hanging on them.

I had a wonderful time with Terry's sister and her hubby. He did not get to speak much with us because we were catching up. I told him I would let him talk more next time.

I ended up buying all our meal just as a treat for them. Her hubby thought he was going to bully me but I told him he did not want any of this. heehee He said he would buy mine next time and I told him no that this was a treat and next time we would be doing dutch.

I had the teriyaki chicken which has always been my favorite at this restaurant. They had the marinated chicken. Kenny is the one that I think I told you about that cannot eat any animal that has hair. It came from a tick bite. It is just the weirdest thing to me.

She asked me if I would come down to their house next time because there are some restaurants their way that they would love for me to go to with them. Heck yeah! I told her I can GPS my behind anywhere, especially for food. heehee

I am so grateful that she wrote to me. Of course, she wanted to know my side of the story which I told her I did not want to get in the middle and cause any bad feelings. Well, then she started telling me how her brother can be, and oh my, a lot of things fell into place with his actions. I ended up telling her the whole story to which she was not surprised. He had only told her I was such a sweet girl but I had tried to change him and he was not going to put up with that. I am 99.9% sure she believes me. At least now, I know that it is not going to cause a problem and I still have old friends that I can go visit on a pretty day. I love sitting on their porch laughing. And I am looking forward to going out to eat with them too.

Well, that was a long story and probably TMI but I thought I would share like I have a tendency to do.

Took a while to get going this morning but finally did. Good thing I was running late. My aunt called and wanted me to address an envelope for her. Not exactly sure why she could not do it but hey, I don't mind helping anyone.

I know it was all short trips in the Impala but I only got 12 miles to the gallon today when I filled up. That v8 loves the gas. I will probably get better on the highway. I will probably continue to take the Honda CRV for long trips. Maybe to the beach! Oh, what a nice thought that is.

Hope everyone enjoys their mid-week. :wub:

Oh my. I just check my weather and it is supposed to get up to 55 degrees today and 84 degrees tomorrow. That is just so crazy. A big yuck for the 70% chance of rain Saturday.

Going to be so nice tomorrow, maybe I should get out the lawnmower again and see if I can avoid getting too close to the clothesline.

It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to get me something a little bit smaller for me to maneuver. Or finish the fence and put up a gate on the driveway. Then I could get a bunch of goats. Problem solved.

I am going to go read for a while and maybe, just maybe I will get sleepy. It could happen. And then I could get back up and have my second cup of coffee. heehee
