TREADMILL!!! OH, EVEN YESSER!!!

In case you couldn't deduct from the title -- I GOT A TREADMILL TONIGHT!!! A wonderful, WONDERFUL woman I know gave me this treadmill... and I am in LOVE with it. I told my husband while driving back from her house, that I have been waiting my WHOLE life for my own treadmill... this is like a dream come true. I never thought that I would be able to afford a decent and WORKING treadmill... but here I am, absolutely BLESSED with a beautiful and barely used one!

This is an absolute blessing. A definite gift-from-GOD. It's almost as if HE handed this over to me and said, "Here you go... this is my gift to you... now take it and run with it!" (You know, 'cause the big man loves puns, hehe) I MUST make good use of this gift and cannot WILL NOT take it for granted!!

So after we set it up, we had a dinner, I put my son to bed... and while my husband watched Sunday-night-baseball on the couch -- I hopped on the treadmill, set the incline to 1.5, speed to 3 MPH (hey, I'm just starting out here) and did my thaaaaang for 45 mins. WOO-HOO! I feel absolutely FANTABULOUS.

I'm setting my alarm for o-dark-thirty and think I'll just get a little walkity-walk in before my Mommy duties begin. My DH is out the door at 4am every morning... so really if I get up anytime between 4-8am I'll have the whoooooooooole house to myself, peace and quiet, to focus on ME and my treadmill.

I think I have to give her a name. (and yes, she's a girl... so my husband doesn't get jealous, teehee.) I'll have to think on that one for a few... but she definitely needs a name... afterall, she Is my new running partner. (okay okay, so I'm not running, YET. I will be soon enough, just have to get a few more pounds of this fat-suit off!)
