We're day wh**ever into the social distancing and staying at home thingy.
I miss conflict and finding resolutions.
I miss meeting in our volunteer organizations and the undercurrents.
I miss doing and being somewhere.
And no, I'm still not doing anything on the Honey-do list.
I exercised again on the elliptical machine yesterday, going to do it again today.
I'm desperate, I only exercise by riding the motorcycle.
I've got to be able to get back into my gear.
This doing nothing but sleep, eat, work on the computer is adding pounds!
Can you relate?

I have been preparing my yard and gardens for spring. Have t***splanted 40 seedlings into bigger pots so they can be planted in the garden when the weather is right. I love to read. Just finished a book in 2 days. Have been cleaning house and cooking. Texting and talking to relatives and friends. Taking care of my chickens and cats and husband. Notice the order!

Sounds like you are getting depressed. Get off your butt and find something to do even if it is something you have never tried before. Good luck and stay safe!

The elliptical machine is my favorite. Until they closed the gym, I did 2.5 miles a day on it. No joint pain at all, anywhere.
Now I have to walk and that puts stress on my knees. So far so good though.
But I can't wait to get back on the elliptical machine again.
This shut down is all designed to crush the economy and Trump.

Lucky lady. I’m not allowed outside. I’m s**k of the inside of my house. Yesterday, though, 2 of my daughters and 2 sons in law sent a text to go to the back door.
There they were with signs of encouragement and we talked loud enough for the neighbors to hear! Lol for about an hour. So I’m a lucky lady, too.

Buy one for your house?

My dad got one.. Put it in front of the tv... Uses it when he watches sports... He agrees about the knees

I belong to two gyms, in a few weeks they will be open again.
Meanwhile, I walk, lift weights at home, and sprint on the nearby soccer fields. Too wet today for sprints.
But I love the elliptical machines.

I hope so... One of my gyms has opened again.. but with restrictions so annoying that I haven't gone in... Until the first day I go my membership is furloughed...

Sprints suck... But they pay dividends

I love sprinting. Done it all my life.
Dividends are there, but the feeling of going flat out until you can't do it anymore is fantastic.
I broke 11 seconds in the hundred yard dash. This year. I did it in 9.8 seconds in high school.
