The June Shivers

Nothing much going on today.  Just a stay at home day.  It is only in the 50's and I am freeeeeezing.  Wacky weather.  I'm going to be squeezing my summer clothes into about a month's worth of warm days it looks like.
Well, as I was reading Pam's blog at Over 50 Feeling 40 I was inspired as she is blogging about her "lifestyle adjustments".  She's being a great motivator by sharing her own journey.  So yesterday I cleared off all my clothes from my treadmill.  It's function for the last year or so has been clothes hanger and catch all.  Now I just have to get on it and walk.  Do any of you have a treadmill and do you use it for it's intended purpose?

  1. A very nice outfit, with a beautiful scarf. I love to continue playing with your hair. It's nice to make changes.

    1. When I was younger my hair was super curly and so in the 70's I just let it go natural and it was in style. Nowadays it's just frizzy and requires flat ironing. It tends to be a bit unruly.

  2. It's warmer here today, but it was kind of chilly last week! I love your scarf!

    I don't have a treadmill, but I do have an elliptical. Right now it's holding clothes since it's nice enough to walk outside though!

  3. I have a settee that collects my clothes, but I try to clear it off weekly. We don't have a treadmill, but I do climb a lot of stairs as we live on the second floor of our home.

    1. Ooh, a settee. I like that word. Sounds like it would go in a "parlor". :)
      You look like you're in excellent shape anyway. And you have that wonderful tandem bicycle!

  4. Very pretty colors and I especially like the scarf. I have a couple in that color way and need a jacket or cardigan like yours. All that exercise talk is motivational!

  5. Well, I haven't made it to the treadmill as of yet, but I'm doing my second day of light weights for my arm strength. So at least that's a tiny start.

  6. This is such a fun outfit- I love the combo of red and pink! I had a rowing machine like that- just sat in the corner collecting dust with scarves flung onto it! Good for you on the arm weights- that's a great start!

    1. Yes, it would make a great catcher of scarves. lol And that reminds me...I'd better do those weights right now because I have procrastinated.

  7. Congrats on your treadmill thoughts...it's a first step, and I just see from reading the comments above that you're doing weights. Yay! Again, you have on the most flattering colours.

  8. I love what you've been doing with your hair lately! Really cute!
    I use to own a treadmill until it started squeaking loudly and nothing I tried made it less annoying so I got rid of it. Now I force myself to walk everywhere, even in the rain.

    1. Really? You're dedicated. I noticed when I moved out here that people just get right out in it. I have hair issues so am always afraid my hair will frizz or I'll ruin my shoes, etc. I need to toughen up. haha
