After comparing a variety of different things, costs, pros and cons, Paul decided what he liked best was Bowflex or free weights, and I was open to either. Then we gave it more thought and decided we liked being able to put it away and not have it take up so much space. So, Bowflex it is.

Let's hope he likes it, let's hope I like it, and let's hope it's worth it. If it lives up to the claims it should be, and I'll think of quitting Bally's after January and picking up street jogging for cardio. Maybe I'll find a handy ballroom dancing class like we wanted to take after the holidays? I'm just not really thrilled with this branch of Bally's, and driving to the old one is a huge way out of the way. If not, then we will return it and get a refund on Bowflex and I'll start shopping for a new gym. It's supposed to be here in 3-4 weeks, so it will be in time for our Oct. anniversary on the 27th. Secretly, I am hoping that if he puts on some muscle, his metabolism will encourage him to eat more often.

Talked to Adrith sometime this week on the phone but I've already forgotten when that was. Monday night? Tuesday? What's today? She sounds like things are moving along over there. Over here, I am very busy and scatterbrained right now. When I talked to Mom B. on the phone, she was complaining that the move has her all crazy and she's getting like Maw-maw who can't remember what she did in the last hour.

I laughed, but not at Maw-maw's or even Mom B's predicament but my own. I sometimes don't remember what I was doing in the last few minutes. I keep mislaying things!
