Adventures at home – back at the gym – week one

Day one was rough. It felt terrible. I don’t know why, but walking in to the gym just felt like I was a fake, someone who didn’t belong trying to pretend like I belonged. I used to love the gym so it felt strange to feel this way. Convinced everyone was staring at me and…

Adventures at home – get outta town

If you’re an explorer, you’re an explorer. There’s nothing you can do about it. I found me and my best friend once a week we would get away, just for a few hours drive to a rural town 30 min away, see new sights, eat at a new restaurant (restaurants were open at this time.)…
