IT'S ARRIVED

For our anniversary, back in May, hubby gave me the money to buy a Wii Fit, which I'd had my eye on for a while, having moaned for the past year that I was still carrying the baby fat from our first born and it was about time I did something about it.....the thing is our first born is now a 6ft+ nineteen year old! Oh dear definitely time to act.

You'd think that it would be easy to go to any store, either physically or on line and purchase said game - particularly as it was being advertised daily on TV, why do they do that, isn't it illegal to torment people with things they can't have? :( Well no, it seems that the whole world wanted the game and no-one seemed to have one, or rather no-one that wanted to sell for a realistic price, if you wanted to pay £200 for a £70 game on ebay there were plenty to be had.

I eventually found a site that looked for games for you and e-mailed you when anywhere had one in, though usually by the time I had got onto the net any available had sold out,more toment. On Friday though I struck lucky, I logged in 5 mins after receiving an e-mail and was finally able to secure a game. No excuses now to starting that fitness programme that I had been promising myself since the start of the year, and had so far made numerous excuses why I hadn't started yet.

Wii Fit duly arrived today, 4 months after I first started trying to buy the game, only trouble is the console is in my 13 year olds bedroom and so far I haven't had a look in, he has been telling me how great it is, but as for moving over to let Mum have a go..no chance! I just hope that now I have got this close I don't have to wait another 4 months until I can finally try it out, I will have run out of exercise excuses by then and I certainly don't want to have to start running round the block. Looks like that baby fat may make 20.
