    Lenusik and chickwho,

    what's Baseline? Is it a town? Whatever it is sounds awful if you can't ride or even walk there?

    I started lifting weights 2 years ago when I was 45- I started with exercise bands and moved up to the 3,5 and 6 pound free weights. Now I use 8, 10, and 15 pound weights with more repetitions- 3 times a week - With 2 leg, 2 core and 2 arm exercise. I mix them up, so my workout won't get stale. I would say don't start on a weight machine unless you have direction from a personal trainer, otherwise you could risk injury.
    I do have hand weights of varying sizes and bands leftover from my Jazzercise days. And I know how to use them. I'll gather it all together and give it all a shot. Thanks for the advice and encouragement!

    there are actually some really nice places around it, including the resort i use to work at. great hiking, mountain biking, and road biking.

    just to bad some bad things are happening around there.

    This is exactly right. It is a pretty area. But I am not sure where exactly he is wondering. Baseline, as you know, is a rather long street. I wanted to start goign to Pointe resort there for swimming classes, but now i am worried.

    i heard he's been bothering much more west of the 17. more twards south phoenix than chandler area.

    the pointe is where i use to work at and is a very safe area. no need to worry there. everyone is super nice. if you are ever worried you can ask anyone to walk you to or from you car. the swimming classes are great, well when i was there, doubt if its changed. once people start working there they stick around for a long time.

    if you need a good pedicure or manicure my friend chrissy took over my hours so stop on by to see her. she's not as good as me , but she's the one that always did my mani's and pedi's. know great massage therapists there too if you need a referral to that one. or one that goes to your home. wow i was so spoiled living in phx.
