“What I’m” Wednesday: Life Stuff!

Hi everyone! I just wanted to take this Wednesday to give you an update on regular old life stuff!

A few days ago I started feeling sick but I didn’t really think much of it. Bit of a Cough and eventually a sore throat. I don’t tend to get very panicky so my immediate response wasn’t “this must be Covid”. Unfortunately I got an email from my gym stating that two people there had Covid and I was there at the same time as them for 4 days. At this point I was worried it was Covid and went to get tested. The good news is, it’s not Covid, it’s just a cold. The bad news is, Covid is back to running wild and we are going back into lock down. And of course that means noire gym.

If you take the time to read these foolishly long posts, you likely know how fucked my shoulder is and that I’ve been working to get it fixed with a massage therapists. That has to be put on hold for now. We can still get massages but she’s being more careful (as she should) and that mean longer between sessions. In the mean time I can’t work out from home because the only upper body exercises I am able to do are done with special equipment. Long story short, until the gyms are open I won’t be working out at all. I’ll do some long walks, hit the bike, and do other forms of cardio but that’s about it. Normally I’d be really upset about this but I’m really hoping that this gives me the push to really focus on eating better and sleeping better and being more productive.

I’ve got a few new (non spandex) costumes in the works and I’m hoping that with all this time stuck at home I’ll be able to finish/fix/prep/ a few of the looks!

LOOK AT ME BEING POSITIVE

On top of all this I’ve got a new job doing data entry for my dad, which if you’ve EVER read one of my posts, you know is a very bad idea. I’m absolute shit at it, but it’s good to keep the money in the family I guess. His loss. One really good thing about this job is that it’s pretty mindless (it likely shouldn’t be) so I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about merchandise and what comes next for ol’ michael hamm.

Anyway, TLDR: I don’t have Covid, I’m don’t have gym and I don’t have shoulder. But, I do have cardio, I do have costumes, I do have job, and I do have ideas! All and all, I’m pretty ok with it all!!!

Love you all and I hope you’re looking for the positives in these times! 🖤

Sweaty selfie for posterity.
