I put it in a 3-ring-binder. This one isn't so much for you to write on, but it could help you do the streamlining you're wanting to do...<br /> http://www.mysimplerlife.com/decluttercalendar.htm<br /><br />...although, it looks like you're doing just FINE to me! I guess I sometimes need to be "told" what to do, and she breaks it down with fast, easy tasks and always something restful on Sundays. I hope you enjoy, and Happy New Year!<br /><br />Today's Adventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15859746462047464016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-79790829657806751852012-12-20T16:24:56.148-05:002012-12-20T16:24:56.148-05:00My present last year was an elliptical trainer, -(...My present last year was an elliptical trainer, -(right before I turned 42 by the way) and I love it. I use it all the time. It's an enormous piece of equipment though so you really need to find a place for it. And, it gets really boring unless you have something to watch while you're on it. I have it along with a spare t.v. set up in my garage.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15184737024024937415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-17053247720124054082012-12-19T23:26:56.731-05:002012-12-19T23:26:56.731-05:00A free gym, really?!

I have three herniated disks in my lower back and tried everything...chiropractor, two different physical therapists, acupuncture (that worked pretty good), and finally - yoga classes. After about two months of yoga, my back felt immensely better. Now I can't live without it. My back has never felt better ever since I injured it (several years ago).Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659968511488397366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-36649599447093666242012-12-17T10:51:39.452-05:002012-12-17T10:51:39.452-05:00I say join the gym.... try the eliptical there fir...I say join the gym.... try the eliptical there first. I would rather do any other cardio equipment than the eliptical. It literally kicks my a** every time I'm on it....and I'm only up to 15 minutes on it!! :o <br /><br />Look on Craigslist for exercise equipment....around February ;) Reeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17516885315219959524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-55973416871210257732012-12-16T12:02:03.018-05:002012-12-16T12:02:03.018-05:00Buy the fabric and pompoms.
