Any one heard of "fighting gravity" fitness? My husband says it sounds like some kind of fad, but it's really not. It looks like a lot of fun and effective too, if anyone wants to look into it, although you probably need to be in a city - they're not going to have such a thing in a small town, probably. It costs money, but will soon be affordable for us - $75/mth - no more than you would pay for a membership to the Y. The trick for me will be getting there!

This one is going to sound very strange, but today I'm ordering a cat stroller, because my cat is feeling very cooped up and our neighborhood has too many dogs and not enough cover, so I'm hoping this is going to work out for both of us. So far, no matter how bored I am, I can't seem to make that move from sitting or lying around to going outside. It feels like such a humongous effort will need to be made.

Thanks for the thread, Bluebird.
