home gym

I purchased a home gym. nothing too fancy or expensive but just enough to do some weight lifting exercises. Anyway it was on back order last week with a promise of being available in 3 weeks. However today I got an email that it was shipped and would be here on Monday.

Why not the Y? I went to the YMCA and checked it out on a few free passes and even filled out the membership. Then i realized that the $35 a month plus the $50 sign up fee was gonna cost me money in the long run. So it was cheaper to buy something once instead of continually paying for it. So if I continue to work out for a year I could pay for my home gym.

So I found something i liked and saw that it was sold locally so I went to order it and they couldn't get one for 45 days. Well 45 days is too long to wait for me. So I searched online and found a place with free delivery(and a $50 savings over the local dealer) and they promised delivery in 20-30 days. So I was faced with a decision. What do i do for 20-30 days while i wait for my own exercise equipment?

Well i joined the Y on a per month basis(no joiners fee) and used the money I saved from the internet purchase of the gym to pay for a month of the Y. So I am going to the Y but not for long. My gym is coming next week.

The only thing that is an obstacle now is the delivery. It is due to arrive on Monday or Tuesday. And Tuesday is baby day and Monday we have to go the doctor, drop off some paperwork and get blood work done. So I wonder what will happen if it comes and we are not here? hrm.
