Wednesday

Luckily for me, weight is not an issue. I'm a tiny thing. I just want to stay healthy. Need the exercise, and movement, because I have pretty bad arthritis.

I live in a gated community, (not by choice, by inheritance, and too expensive to get out of it.) I'm surrounded by MAGA here. Lovely outdoor walks are often ruined by running into them. So having a treadmill indoors is not only good for my physical health, but my mental health and my blood pressure as well.
