I am considering parting ways with the golf clubs in my garage. They have been hanging there for 6 years and I have not touched them in at least 4. I pretty much have a full set and a half of clubs, 2 golf bags and probably 5-6 dozen balls (mostly used). I guess I am finally realizing that I just don’t have the time or all the proper equipment, granted I never had a pair of golf shoes or the tacky pants, heck the 3-par course I visited a number of times closed over 3 years ago. Maybe I should take some pictures of the stuff now while my grass is short and throw it up on craigslist.

I mowed my lawn today.
The picture isn’t my yard and my lawn doesn’t look like that.
But it looks better than it did. And it is April 14! I don’t think I have ever mowed this early in the year.
And yes I am putting this in the exercise category.

How many times have a brought up the fact that I need to lose weight? I got more than enough stuff to help me accomplish this goal. I know what I need to do and not do, I have more than enough hardware to help me on my way. I just can’t seem to get out of bed in the morning to have the time to do anything and while I am not a morning person, I have discovered that I am a morning exercise person. Kinda weird huh!? I think that a new alarm clock may be on the next budget.

I need to lose weight in a big way. The problem is discipline and time management. I stay up too late cause I am constantly working on something and then can’t get up in the morning early enough to workout. Of course if I could figure out a way to take less than 2 hours to get out of the house in the morning I would probably be better off.
I good friend loaned me his bowflex which I still need to find instructions for. I need to clear out some of the gear that I have in the basement - weight bench, free weights (non olympic) and a narrow treadmill. I am kinda hoping that I can put them on Craigslist and trade for an elliptical.
But then again I would be happy just to find some magic weight loss pills.

I have spend a good deal of time searching craigslist for ellipticals and have not found anything in our price range (free). I am thinking about making a list of the weight bench and free weights that I have (not the dumbbell set) and see if I can find someone who would trade. I guess it is worth a shot, speaking of trades - anyone want to trade a near brand new Zelda game and guide book for Wii for the Star Wars Legos Wii game?
