Pat,

Yes, my old Model B may be going to a museum. Got it back together (for now). It has slowed down my totals so far but I'm looking to get back into the"swing". Maybe that economic stimulus check will go to a new Model D. Thanks for the words of motivation.

Just a little tale of "woe" to share with you.

When you think that rowing is everything..think again

We had 2 very large pallets of mulch delivered this weekend.We are on a time crunch..so my husband and I had to unload what seemed like a gazillion bags of mulch..place them strategically in all the beds that needed it and then go to work.As he trimmed all the palms and bushes..I did the manual unloading.I picked up & tossed those bags like they were feathers

Walked several miles in total to get the bags to their destination..boasting that all the rowing I do and have done I could handle the job.Ok..I used muscles I didn't know I had.I am sore beyond words and have no intention of erging this weekend.Hot, dirty, tired and ragged..with better muscles than Friday..and feel mighty darn proud!!Our pallets are to the ground..the neighbors are waiting for some poor landscaper to do it for them.I step back and look at the beauty of the mulch and greenery.But I can't MOVE!!

So if you totally rely on your rower to get you fit..think again!!

Sorry that I didn't get us further along in the Virtual waters but my workout was on dry land..even on Mothers Day..toiling and despite the aches and pains..got the work done.

Have a great day!!!

Pat

Hi, Pat ... I had the same thoughts this week, helping my son move many heavy boxes into his condo: "Oh, look how fit I am.

I rock." NOT.

(My muscles may ache, but I'm sure that my heart rate was excellent!)

In absence of clearly defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily acts of trivia.
