We finally broke down and did it! After being married 7 and a half years and saying “we really need a treadmill” (every year) we actually got one, at last! I was really worried about falling into the trap of paying the money, then letting it sit and collect dust. I know it will get used though, I am not worried about that anymore. With our schedule and lifestyle it just makes sense, and I am dedicated to running and now finally have an outlet to continue in the winter. This treadmill decision comes at the heels of a big project we opted to undertake. Well…let me re-phrase, that Jim decided to undertake!:) He and some of the neighbors are going to finish our basement and create a play room/workout area. We usually go to the YMCA in the winter time but we decided to cancel that and invest in our home. So needless to say that is our Christmas present to each other! Besides, we had originally planned a trip to Disney and now we will be using that money to make a lasting impact in our home. I am excited because I KNOW the boys will love it! I have no doubt that we’ll get great use out of that area. With 3 boys it’s almost a necessity!:)
We visited the great people at Good Company today. Every year we go on to talk about “Operation Families First”. Our radio station teams up with the USO to help provide Christmas gifts for military families who are dealing with deployments. Once again I am blaming the “bad lighting” for how I look. ha ha.:) I’m never happy. Sheesh. Here is the link! http://www.wkyc.com/video/player_goodcompany.aspx?aid=48048&bw=
