can entettain be utilized and innocently jttsoib more conversation than any other one thing in my abode maybe it was when my children begin investing their weekly allowances in boxes of melrocat and handing them to me with open faced countenance or mayhap it was ihe ultlnuie result of leallzwg that my xl loose tilting shift dresses wouldnt fit any more in any event i found myself curious enough about an adveilised exercise machine to phone the local order office to order wlut nios people would consider a ridiculous luxury however by saving st a week on hairdo money for twenty weeks i would jiiuallyhegeuuigil free now i wat investing in an htm slightly under mental protest questioning ihe true need of such a venluie and i was even considering sending it back before it had been delivered until whin after lluee weeks of no wind i plumed into ihe tloie lo learn that lliey had been swamped with ordeis and probably liad run out of supply two more weeks and a notice saying that regretfully my request was not suppliable lly tins time llse oidlnary intle exerciser of questionable requirement had become a inusl in every home and on contacting ihe time wat satisfied that they would see what they could do about prikuiing ume fur me and when it finally did arrive ii was at tlse wumg order office requiring only that i pick it up and get it home now bringing something new and of tuch proportions into our house is like trying to set up a childs loy garage on lhililmat eve willi relatives and friends aiound imbibing in cheery punch everybody hat ideat uf how lo put it together but it ends up willi pedal handle bars and operating the machine while lying on the ilihir well we finally did gel ii together i have an ingenious huslijnd who look one look al my effort sighed in slight dinacmcul and with a few adjustments presented me with a reasonable facsimile uf ihe pictuie on liter outside wrapper i was in business i oi so it would seem with the whole family standing in a circle awaiting maler lo lake her position on the white leather bicycle scat and pump mernly to shnulun well ii didnt work out that way i lankly i wasnt loo happy about the confirmed family recognition of my excess avordupoit and id be doggoned if anyone would catch me operating the sully thing so cvciyhody in ihe house got on ihe bicycle rower from four ycais old lo adulthood and everybody in the family hsd a merry lime lveiyone but mother that is because the invitation she had was with a snide giggle to lop it off the ully conniption had a decided squeak when anyone stepped on the pedals and an indusiiiout athlete like myself would surely make a tremendous racket well the poor little exeiclse machine originally slated for an upstairs bedroom was on better thought kept in the living room whcieupun peuple coming into ihe house and discussing ihe topic of the day would be suddenly aware of some member of ihe family innocuously wheeling away on ihe tubular contraption making loud squeaking noises well i now have accepted ihe fact that strangely audible squeaking noises emulating from the living room followed by muffled guffaws indicate that mothers little secret it being shared by yet another family friend and i am fully awate that a new gime has been created called whose turn is it next bui the actual fun of ownership of such a vehicle is that during ihe off lo school hours when al my leisure time away fr ihe scrutiny of family friends and neighbours i can merrily pedal and row anywhere in the country to he invigorating strains of multitudinous records
