What is it about treadmills...they are just so boring? Walking is what I would rather do...or biking...but our development has only two streets...that do not connect...so I have to walk up and down our street...which I do sometimes but that gets boring, too...even with a stroller full of kitties. The street is long and hilly but there is nothing fun to see. To get to the other street I have to walk around the pond and then through someone's back yard...then around and back again...whew! I do that sometimes, too but it's still a pain.
Then yesterday I thought that we should buy a little rowboat...and I could row around the pond.
Like this...but every time I googled small rowboats...they were all in England...this is from eBay in the UK. But look at how sweet this one is!

An astonishing debut about friendships made in youth, The Girls from Corona del Mar is a fiercely beautiful novel about how these bonds, challenged by loss, illness, parenthood, and distance, either break or endure...
From Amazon...
You're alone. You're vulnerable. And you have something that someone else wants. At any cost...
Yummy yummy books! The mailbox was overflowing this week!
Happy Monday!
Oh Steady Running of the Hour is one I really want to read! And I love you more is on my wish list :)
ReplyDeleteLove the boat! It's very cute. You should get yourself a two person Kayak!
I thought about a kayak but there is more room to read in a little boat without tipping over!
DeleteWow, there are some interesting books there. I couldn't do rowing! That is difficult! I plan on getting Stella out more, now that weather has broken.
ReplyDeleteI Love You More looks like a page-turner!
ReplyDeleteI also find it difficult to read and exercise. I have an exercise bike...boring! My neighborhood isn't interesting for walking, either. And we have lots of short blocks....
I LOVE using a treadmill! Give me an iPod full of music and I am good to go! :-)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the books!
ReplyDeleteI actually don't mind the treadmill at the gym. I listen to an audiobooks and it's fine. I prefer outside though, but only if it's not raining, not too cold and not too hot.
