Half the fun of going to the gym is people watching. They are all sizes and shapes, and in varying degrees of physical fitness. The treadmill I use is at the edge of the upper level which is about 2 stories up, and overlooks a small area where people sometimes work with personal trainers, and other specialized exercises. I often see guys jumping rope, as a boxer does to get and keep in shape.
This morning I couldn't take my eyes off one such guy - his arms and shoulders were absolutely stunning! He worked out with the jump rope the entire time I was there, about 5 minutes at a time with a half-minute break between each set. He was still going when I left about 30 minutes later. He was a lot more fun to watch than the personal trainers and their captives, and the time sped by so quickly for me.
I could easily have decided the heck with the gym this morning, but after the review Shadowmoss gave me in her blog, I just had to go! I would like to provide another link to my chiropractor's blog, and if you scroll down the page there is a small screen that can be activated for about a 5 minute morning workout. It really is a great one to get started with - nothing strenuous - and can be done sitting on the edge of the bed or in a chair.
This morning first thing I called an AT&T rep to complain about my service. I had a very nice person who switched my TV channels to UVerse 200 level, for less money! I mentioned that some day I plan to get another landline phone, and she ended up adding the phone service to my order. It's something I often think about - during the day I frequently have to search for my cell phone, although I am in the habit of setting it on a bedside table, along with my car keys, at night. If I actually thought I was having a heart attack I'm not sure what I would do. I certainly wouldn't want to be strung up in a hospital. There is also the safety aspect in the event someone tries to break into my house.
- The Last Straw!
More about my ATT service: I again called this morning to have my land line svc removed, but first I wanted to know what the difference would be in my bill. The reps talk in circles and never give you a straight answer, so I kept at this guy...
- Oh, For The Good Old Days
I'm remembering telephone service in the old days - Bell Telephone, to be exact. They came out and installed your telephone, and you paid a modest charge every month. Then it got to where you had to go into a sales office and pick...
- Not A Good Start To The Morning
I looked at my email 1st thing this morning to find a notice from AT&T of my latest bill, which is well over double what I've been paying for TV and internet. I called them to cancel the entire package. I can do without TV if I have...

I've been wondering since I was driving through the southwest, what is the meaning of the name "Alamo". I noticed that word or name in a lot of names, such as "Alamogordo". I wouldn't have thought anything of it except I know "gordo"...

I used the Jitterbug this morning for the first time to call Great Call Customer Svc. My old phone # had been ported to the new phone, but it wasn't showing up on the J'bug screen. A feature of this phone is that when you open it your...
