Today I set up the room that is home to my elliptical.  While I’ve been on an insane hot streak with my writing, I realized my physical well-being has been neglected.  I’ve owned an elliptical for about a year now, (it’s a hand me down from a family friend), but it has essentially sat in a room that we have only been using for storage and things were piling up all around it.  Now I've cleared the room and it is work-out ready.

I’ve decided to try to exercise for at least a half an hour every day because now that I’m not working, I find myself sitting around quite a lot.  This can be remarkably productive for a writer, but not so great on the waste line.  I think it's easy for writers to get so wrapped up in what they are doing that they forget about the little things in life like their health.  This may sound crazy for some people out there, but I used to love to go to the gym.  I can’t afford a membership anymore so this will have to be the next best thing.

I’m curious about whether this will change or improve my writing at all.  I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
