I work out. A lot. In the winter, however, it's sometimes hard to make it to the Fitness Center. And Richard Simmons and I can only spend so much time together or we both start getting bitchy. So, my solution is to add a piece of equipment that I'll be able to use on all but the worst arthritis-painful days.
DMBA, Mike's employer, has a program that refunds insurance premiums up to $200 for meeting various goals throughout the year. Between both of our refunds this year and maybe a chunk of my hoarded Swagbucks gift cards, we won't be paying very much out of pocket at all! Sam has loaned me some seasons of Smallville to get caught up on, so it'll be Clark and me everyday for a while. The bike is so quiet that I don't even have to turn the tv up at all.
Between my arthritis issues and blood sugar issues and other assorted annoying health issues, I'm having to put a lot more thought and effort into my fitness plan these days. I'll be seeing a dietitian in a couple of weeks and also a fitness and lifestyle counselor. Although I've been doing a lot of the right things, apparently, there's more I still need to learn about and do. So, this year, my winter project is...me!

SO....PRETTY! We may have to make sure its worthy for you sometime. ;) Glad we don't have to worry about you and Richard anymore! ROFL!!
Oooh, so jealous! That's a lovely new toy! When you're done with Smallville, you can re-watch Battlestar Galactica, the entire season is streaming on Netflix. You got me addicted!
