No Zoom again today. Matt and Alicia are working on getting us back into the gym! Yes, that is exciting but I’m so worried and anxious about having to wear a mask when I exercise. Does the governor not understand that old, fat people can barely breathe when exercising to start with that if you cover their mouth and nose, they will probably die because they can’t breathe at all? Hopefully Matt will still do Zoom?? Guess we’ll see….

Good workout. I’m sweaty so I guess I did it ok. Seemed to be a pretty quick workout though. I guess I’ll try to go to the gym tomorrow – still not sure how I will be able to breathe there, but we will see.
Working out by yourself isn’t fun and it is much more difficult trying to do things on your own.

I’m so blessed to have found Matt and Alicia’s gym. Matt is truly a blessing and I’m pretty sure I would have quit this stuff a long time ago without his constant encouraging and pushing. Somehow he seems to be way more confident that I can do more way before I am! I guess he knows if he tells me to do something I’ll trust him and try it.

Talk to you all soon! Maybe I’ll see some of you at the gym in the morning!
Have a great day!!
