WHAT IS THAT?

Can you guess what that is?

I'll give you a clue....it's not a hot tub.

With all the snow....it is a cold tub....

bathtub, that is....

sitting in our back yard.

The garden tub in the master bath

was just taken up space for a long time,

and was used as a catch all.

It was rarely used for the purpose

of taking a bath.....

except the grandkids liked to bathe and

play in it when they were younger.

So, we decided to put the space to good use....

since I had just recently purchased

a recumbent exercise bike,

and found that I could not fit it in my bedroom.

My dh came up with the idea to remove that

big tub to make room for both the bike

and my treadmill......

he was determined to find a space....

even if he had to make one.

he wanted to help me get in the

habit of using them and hopefully

take off a lot of extra weight that

I've been carrying around for a long time,

and causing me to have health problems.

It was a lot of work on his part....

I am really blessed to have such a

good handyman.

The photo below shows the completed project.

All I need to make it complete is a small TV

up in the corner so I can play my exercise videos

and watch TV while I walk.

I usually read while I ride the bike.

I also have a yoga mat in there and hand weights.

Now, I just have to get in the habit of using

these and exercising on a daily basis.

Since I'm headed for Myrtle Beach in July,

I want to be able to do a lot of walking

without getting all out of breath.

It will be my first time to visit a beach....

can you believe that! It's true.

I will only be wading in the water.

For me, the trip will be for sight seeing

and enjoying seeing the ocean,

and spending time with my two daughters

and three granddaughters.

I'm asking all of my praying friends

to keep me in your prayers....

this is going to be a hard task for me

to lose weight and get better fit.
