Today was not as hot as other days temperature wise, but the humidity made it feel sooo icky and gross that it just felt like it was 100 or so in the apartment. Despite how heavy the air was, I did manage to get in a workout. Thankfully, while I don't have AC, I do … Continue reading Fitness Check In: Day 36

I have to admit that I dragged this morning. The exhaustion has been hitting me hard lately, and today was no exception. Was it the Colace I had to take last night?
