Damn!

I am in quite a pissy mood.  I went back to Bally's Total Fitness this morning and discovered that the place is closing down.  The lease is up and not being renewed.  Then I found out the kid club (nursery) is closing on the 5th.  There goes my work out routine.

The closest club is about 15 miles away, at least 20-30 minutes of driving if I don't hit traffic.  I have been a member since October 1987, with U.S. Swim and Fitness in Minneapolis until it was bought by Bally's (or they changed the names over, I don't know which).  I upgraded my membership in 1995 when I moved to Dallas.  I currently pay less than $25 a month and it included child care for 2 hours.  I can't go to the other location but I can cancel my membership.  I have no idea where to go now.  A local club stuck fliers under windshield wipers today.  I may check them out.  There is a 24 hour fitness across the street from Bally's.  I guess it is time to check them out, too.

For the life of me, I am not sure what the owner of the mall thinks they can do with a 2 story building with a pool and sauna.  The club in Dallas opened up around the time we moved here and I have not heard glowing reports about it.

Joy.
