My elliptical and me

Hey guys! Sorry I have been missing for awhile. I had some serious frustrations the last week or so....but it's all good now. I had ordered an elliptical machine and when it came, the box was missing all the nuts, bolts, screws, and washers needed for assembly. So...I called, and asked for them and waited patiently. When the box came over a week later...it had about 150 little ziplock baggies, each with a few assorted screws, washers, or bolts in varying shapes and sizes. Mind you, I needed maybe 30 at most.....and I had 100's staring me in the face. I started sorting it all out, then realized there would be no way to be certain i had used the right size and that it might not be safe.... I FINALLY got exactly what I needed on Tuesday and have worked out on it each day. The first day I only made it 10 minutes and my legs were like jelly afterwards. I'm up to 20 minutes now and am going to shoot for an eventual 30 minutes daily by adding 5 minutes each week maybe). I love it! I actually got up an hour early today and did my exercise before work! I HOPE I can keep doing that, I think it would be so good for me. Hope you all are healthy and happy and not too crazy from the pre-christmas shopping, etc. Annie 307/239/155
