Planet Fitness

I finally made it into the gym. I joined planet fitness though I can't say that it will ever be my favorite gym.
1) I almost walked out right away due to the smell. I don't remember any other gym smelling like sweat quite like this one - I think that they need to work on their ventilation. It wasn't bad enough to scare me off so I signed up.
2) there was no tour of the gym - not that there is much of it. but sometimes here is the locker room is helpful.
3)The person that signed me up said it was a "beginners" gym - what a joke. they don't have anyone to show people how the machines work. As I was working out I ended up helping someone with the machine next to mine.
4) I think I saw 2-3 other people wipe down their weight machines - GROSS!
5) They have a button to push that looks like it lites up something if people grunt to loudly or drop weights - really? Okay I get that it is annoying but instead of warning the person and then quietly removing the offender you need to make a ruckus and disturb everyone?!
6) They don't have my favorite machine.

I'm sure I will be adding to this list. Oh well you get what you pay for...

On a separate note - Thanks dad for a great lunch!

What a yucky day.

It was cold and miserable today. Though it may have finally stopped snowing. I enjoyed my time with Evelyn today but wasted nap time reading a book. Because of that I didn't get much done today. Jason and I are both exhausted - J from coughing all night in the den and me from getting up with Evelyn at 3:30 and having a hard time getting back to sleep. It made for a long day. I still have a little bit of cleaning to do then I'm going to shower and hide in bed. Tomorrow I will use my lunch hour to purchase a baby gate as J said he was going to but has not yet done so. I've had enough and I know Evelyn will pitch a fit when she finds it up but I need the security of having it especially if J is going to travel again though he does not have any trips coming that I am aware of.
