No More Excuses

Yesterday, after 11 years with the old treadmill, we updated to a newer, more QUIETER model. Oh happy day! Dear Honey wakes up at 5 a.m. and runs on the treadmill for an hour. The old one was so noisy that the tv would have to be up full blast just so you could hear what was being said. I like my sleep but was always awake when Honey was awake. This a.m. I woke up but not to noise.....I think it was more from habit. I had to listen very closely to even hear the treadmill. Yes! When it was my turn to excercise, I was ecstatic that I didn't have to turn the volume up on the tv to 99% and worry that I was going to blast out the speakers. In fact I had to turn the volume down to normal. This is going to be great having a new machine. (Can you see my lil' muscle man on the wall? That lil' one is now a big 3. He sure use to be a roly-poly. So cute!)
 
Thought I would also show my quilts in our gym. I love this red and white quilt. I bought it years ago on ebay for very little money. It is all hand pieced, hand quilted and very old. It is one of my favorite quilts! The other one I made years ago. I use to have a "red" room in our old house and it hung near my red checkered couch. I changed our colors in this home but decided I needed to have a happy, bright workout room (to make me want to go in there) and I think the yellow paint with the red quilts do just that.

Good for both of you for being so good to be on the treadmill every day. (Especially for an hour). I need to be much better about using ours.
