I remember

Ok so i finally remember why i stopped working out as much last year once i got a good start going in March/April when i first hit the gym: the heat. Last year was insane when it came to summer heat, so much so that we literally had a lot of creeks, lakes, and other natural waters drying up. It was a disaster. Luckily, so far, this summer hasn't been that bad, but the last two days have been pretty insane. I never ended up finishing my arm day, which is a pity. And today i couldn't get leg day going. Fortunately, it started storming earlier this evening, so now the temps have cooled down a lot and my apartment feels good again so i should be able to do it tomorrow.

I have my physical therapy appointment at 02.30 PM tomorrow so i hope to do my leg day before that, otherwise i wont be able to. I am still anxious about going to the gym. I will bring it up tomorrow during my therapy. I think i already know what she is going to say. That i have to build it up slowly. First by going to the gym and just walking on the treadmill. Not even doing anything extensive. And then she will ask me how long i want to be there. And then next time i can incorporate one other exercise machine etc. etc. In my head i know that it is that simple and that i should do it like that, but at the same time i just want to go and do my work-outs BUT at the same time i am also not doing anything right now so i might as well just go for a little while so the anxiety goes away again. Idk i think it will be easier once i just talk about it to her cause i feel that there is some force behind it.

I btw also got a new keyboard. It types so smoothly. I did a few type tests and i got 140 WPM almost every time. The keyboard was the most expensive one they had at the store lol, but it fits all my requirements so it was worth it i guess. The keys are very trigger happy, so sometimes if you even just slightly hover over a key with your finger it gets pressed, which i have to get used to.

I also finally picked up my vitamin D prescription at the pharmacy. I was "self-medicating" with only 400 IE chewing tablets. But i guess it worked since my bloated belly is gone. My prescription from the pharmacy is 25000IE though, which is pretty high. I have to take one tablet a week for six weeks, so i hope i feel more energized at the end of it.

We are also in August which means that at the end of this month school vacation should be over, so maybe then i will also feel more comfortable to go to the gym again. I would like to work towards a monday/wednesday/friday leg/glute day. Where on monday and friday i work-out at home, and wednesdays go to the gym; And then the next week i switch by going to the gym on monday and friday and work-out at home on wednesdays. I think that would be awesome. But how do i get there... i guess just by going to the gym again lol.
