Dottleshead ★ Posted January 18, 2020 Share #1 Posted January 18, 2020 I don't see either one and it's a Friday. I'd love it if Couch showed up but I can only dream. Jsharr is camping -- and it's way past his bedtime. RE is getting pummeled by his wife. I'd be happy if -- well -- anybody else showed up. I'm basically a loser and I need to establish contact.

Longjohn ★ Posted January 18, 2020 Share #7 Posted January 18, 2020 I quit riding the alligator up to the fifth floor to visit my wife. Now I run the stairs. I need to get some kind of exercise. I never see anyone else in the stairway, I wonder how long someone would lay there if they fell or had a heart attack? That would be a weird way to go, so close to help but nobody knows you’re there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard people get just as much workout on them as the non-electric ones.

The first gym I became a member of bought out a place that went out of business. They had a whole room full of those machines that do all the work for you. They were all like brand new. Sometimes I would see fat ladies working the circuit going from one fat giggling machine to another hoping to lose weight. Sometimes it was hard not to giggle. The gym had all the equipment needed to get your heart rate up and really burn fat but that was too much work. They would rather let the machines do the work and hope for the best. I can only imagine their Facebook posts if Facebook had been invented back then. “Well I’m off to the gym again, I workout for an hour every day before I go to the buffet for lunch. I must have one of those bodies that can’t loose weight no matter what I do.” That gym had a stair climber machine and every morning I would see the same guy on the stair climber when I got to the gym. I would hit the pool first and swim laps before I went to the gym for my workout. He would still be climbing. I worked my way around the gym doing my full body workout and when I was finished he was still climbing. I asked him about why he climbed so much and he said this is the only thing He had found that He could lose weight on. He said he had lost 100 pounds on it so far this year and another twenty and he would start to try other equipment and see if he could keep the weight off while building a stronger body. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petitepedal ★ Posted January 18, 2020 Share #25 Posted January 18, 2020 Good Morning....my trainer would jiggle the fat off of you in no time @Dottie "You want a tea party? I can give you a tea party...but you don't want a party...you don't pay me for a party" We are all gonna die..it is a fact..you want to die fat and sassy in your chair or you wanna wear out... Just a couple of things to note..exercise will help you sleep better! And you will age better (1 year or 40 years) if you exercise. The residents at my work...the ones who keep active..mostly walking..but also doing some of our classes...age..better...fewer falls, and in general...pretty healthy. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sheep_herder ★ Posted January 18, 2020 Popular Post Share #26 Posted January 18, 2020 I was napping in between feeding bottle lambs and checking for new ones. Was out at 4:00am after feeding two very persistent bottle lambs, and found a set of twin lambs. Since the temperature is -9F, I moved them into a small area with a heat lamp, came back and let the dogs out, and made a cup of coffee. I am drinking the coffee as I type, and will head out in a few minutes to check on the lambs. I may need to bring them in to warm by the heater vent in the kitchen. Hope everyone is having a nice morning. Mine has just begun. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a robotic warming lamb or do you just have some lambs that naturally put off a lot of heat and you keep them in a room for warming the little ones? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dottleshead ★ Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share #40 Posted January 18, 2020 It was 37 degrees here last night and I went to bed with indoor temps at 75 before I placed a big hunk of cherry and a cut of cedar on the fire last night. This morning I awoke to indoor temps of 69. That's pretty rad I was able to keep the house to a decent temperature only on firewood alone given that it was in the 30s last night, and that I didn't touch it (the fire) for about 6 hours. I just woke up about an hour ago and refueled it. That's why I'm now chatting with you bastards now before going back to bed. It's why I do the work in the summer time. I kept my house warm last night w/o spending a cent on heating costs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
