    Yeah, except he knows I hate treadmills............  and that is his point, plus I think he fears I might try to force him to use it so he figures if it isn't in the house then I can't make him do any kind of exercise - the lazy ass.

     

     

    Dang it, woman! You constantly contradict yourself 

     

    I know I would make good use of a TM, and I don't need an expensive one..

      I know, dang it. You and I aren't the only ones who know this either 

      I do promise though, that when we do find the time to start renovating the house or building the new shop out here, I will make it a priority to get a treadmill

              OK that is pretty damn funny. I don't have those specific conversations with my wife, because she knows better than to bother with the details. She usually saves time & just goes straight to "you're a fucking idiot".

                  As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.
