REENIE'S REACH

These days I hope to be parked in my garage a lot. I've *installed* a mini-gym there. It has actually been installed for over a week, but I got a flu/cold and couldn't begin my regimen until today. Okay - maybe I could have started yesterday.

Anyway, I have a 3-car garage home. My house is actually not very big - it's mostly garage - really - so I thought I should take advantage of the extra space. I was also sick-to-death of working out at the Fowler Center on Sewanee Campus. Do you have any idea how demoralizing it is for a flabby 60 year old woman to be grunting next to a perky co-ed? In all honesty, that isn't at all the reason why I set up the gym at home. Those coeds don't bother me a whit - I wouldn't be that age again for nuttin' - and I'm serious. I'm still pretty stupid about some stuff, but at that age, people are majorly stupid. Nope, I want my gym at home because my life has become so busy and I want to be here. When I first moved to the mountain, going to a gym was a way to assuage isolation.

I lovelovelove my new gym. It's perfect. I even have a tray beside the recumbent bicycle where I can put my remote, beverage, and telephone - does life get any better! I can watch my favorite TV programs or one of the new DVDs I purchased when I moved in and have yet to watch.

So, here's my garage tour.

A poorly lit overview

My extra fridge with the TV, and filing cabinets

Extra furnace filters :)
