New Exercise Toy

Recently I got a rowing machine via Freecycle. An elderly woman and man were giving it away, as they're moving to Phoenix to a retirement community with all the exercise equipment they could possibly want. I love this thing. I get on it several times throughout the day: when I get up in the morning, when I watch TV, etc. It has been a godsend in terms of my cardio, especially since I've had to stop jumping rope in the mornings because the downstairs neighbor complained about the jumping, resulting in a letter from management, scolding me and telling me that this is one, and if I get three complaints, I'll be evicted (hiss). The rowing machine has also made my shoulders and back feel great: sore, but in a good way. I highly recommend taking a free rowing machine if one is offered to you. :)
