Last night I headed over to Anytime Fitness (If you didn't know, Scott and I own two Anytime Fitness Centers, one in Blackfoot, ID and one in Shelley, ID). I told Scott that I was going to work out, but instead I packed up a load full of Garbage bags and got my weeding gloves and put on a coat and hat.
Anytime Fitness Blackfoot is located right next to a freeway exit, a grocery store, and the Super 8. Because of so much traffic, both on foot and in car, a LOT of trash accumulates.
Now that the snow has melted Scott has been complaining about what a mess it is and how junky the freeway exit makes our gym look. If you know Scott at all you know he is a man of action, but he really injured his ankle a few weeks ago playing basketball (ahh!) and hasn't been able to get around very well; thus, he can't really do the job himself right now.
So, last night I bagged about 20 bags of trash and leaves and filled about 3 business sized garbage bins worth of weeds and crap. It took me over two hours and today I can't even stand up straight my back hurts so badly (Who said weeding isn't exercise?).
The low point was when I was spotted by a few friends covered in dirt and garbage in the middle of the night. I was looking pretty mangy.
But inside I am so excited for when Scott notices. How fun is it to get to serve each other?
SO, GO AND DO SOMETHING NICE FOR SOMEONE!
