I appreciate those who dropped by yesterday to have a guess about my gift. We had some good guesses. Faerie was the one who guessed the closest - it was for my stationary bike and not a treadmill, but she had the right idea.
And here you see my gift as it was intended to be used! I can now ride my bike and use this attachable shelf Nick made for my computer. I'm married to a such an inventive fellow!
'First weekend', as Nick calls it, went great. More details later.
Hey PK...I was waaaay off on my guess! LOL
ReplyDeleteNick is definitely a very inventive and talented man. Hope this helps you.
Blessings,
Cat
Cat,
DeleteHe is very inventive and I appreciate it (but I still don't like to exercise)!
I started to think maybe it was something like that! I am so glad you have such a thoughtful guy. It does make working out a bit easier.
ReplyDeleteMinelle,
DeleteIt does help some. He's a pretty good fellow.
Hi PK, I saw your last post but didn't get a chance to comment. I was waay off on my guess too LoL.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful and thoughtful of Nick to make this for you. It should certainly add a little more incentive to work out.
Hugs,
Roz
Roz,
DeleteEvery little bit helps!
How thoughtful of him. But now you have no excuse not to workout.
ReplyDeleteFD
FD,
DeleteYeah, that is a problem.
Your husband is a wise man. How does he get you to stop to workout now? It will be the next task .. lol.
ReplyDeleteMona Lisa,
DeleteAs you said he is very wise, he has his ways.
Hi PK! :). That's really a great thing that Nick made you! :). I read your post last night and like Roz, didn't have time to comment either, but was thinking about what that could be. I thought it looked like something for a laptop but my mind never went to exercise equipment. :) enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteI spend quite a bit of time on our treadmill, and I wouldn't enjoy it as much if I didn't have my iPad on there to read while walking or running. I'm usually bumping around too much to type anything, but it makes a big difference to the experience.
Good luck with your bike riding! :). Sorry about your issues with the curriculum. That sounds very frustrating! Now you can peddle your frustrations out and be entertained as well! Hugs!

Katie,
DeleteI don't type on it much but I can play my mindless Facebook games on it and that passes the time pretty well. If I peddled away my frustration I'd weigh maybe a hundred pounds.
Oh yeah, any chance he wants to share the plans he used to make that?
ReplyDeleteFaerie,
DeleteI don't think he had any plans - he's just really good at building anything.
WOW..that man is a keeper....very nice! hugs abby
ReplyDeleteAbby,
DeleteIt's true! He's great!
I didn't comment, but didn't come close in my guesses. This is so thoughtful, PK. What a wonderful man you have there!

Lillie,
DeleteHe's made me several things I've just mentioned. I've drawn pictures of things I need at school and before I know it, he's made it.
Hi PK what a clever man he is, he is determined to keep you on that bike isn't he?
ReplyDeleteLove Jan. xx
Jan,
DeleteIt sure seems so!
very cool...now you can have fun while you exercise!
ReplyDelete:-)
Terps,
DeleteWell anyway I can try.
That's awesome. Now there's no excuse not to exercise, lol. Enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteSarah,
DeleteI'm still working on that!
In future I'll keep my guesses to myself! Still, you now have two things you could use it for.....
ReplyDeleteAnd lady, how on earth do you cycle and type at the same time?!
And also, you need to go full bore for ten minutes (a US study says three!) till you feel all your muscles burn, then stop and get off. It speeds up your metabolic rate and you even burn the calories whilst asleep. This is fact not fiction. It has brought my blood sugar down no end! They can't explain it, but it works. (Grinning) I'm full of these little gems PK!
Many hugs
Ami
Ami,
DeleteI liked your guess - and it gives me something else I might just ask him to make! I don't try to do much typing, more reading and game playing. But I know you're right. I can slip the shelf off it I want to go hard at it. Then I put it back on if I just want to stretch my legs.
This is awesome! Do you watch videos on it while you're biking? Cool stuff!
ReplyDeleteM.
Maryanne,
DeleteI do sometimes or just watch whatever's on.
I am sure that your cheeks will stick out nicely on that saddle, for some much needed spanks.
ReplyDeletePK,
ReplyDeleteI'd forgotten about your exercise bike.
Perhaps not the gold, but close.
Love and warm hugs,
Paul.
I missed your last post so didn't guess but I would never have guessed correctly.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful and thoughtful husband you have.
Love,
Ronnie

Nick is so cute! My husband is handy like that too. I can't tell you how many gems he's created to make life easier for me. They can be so wonderful...unless it's helping me exercise!
