Returning back to the gym next week

Today I got my new debit card in the mail. I've reactivated it and updated my information on Paypal. Though I'm still taking another week off from the gym to earn more money with Upwork, rest my knees, and do some cleaning around the house, I'll be back to the gym, a week from today. I've also looked at the weather forecast for next week--50-60 degree weather, lots of sunshine and rain. So it looks perfect and spring-like to me. Hooray for spring! I'll be transferring some of my Paypal money to my bank on Friday afternoon, after I get paid 133.00 on Wednesday from Upwork. Then on Sunday, on the way back from church, I'll stop at my gym to re-up for one final year to start from 4/2/17 to 4/2/18. Then I'll do summer gym sessions starting after Memorial Day Weekend from that year on. When the summer pass is listed on the website this year, I'll show you what it looks like. So I'm going to take it easy this week and gear up for my return to the gym a week from today!

Sounds like a good plan. Do you find Upwork is a trusted company to write for- I've heard a variety of things!

Thanks! Yes I do. And if you have trouble, you can send them a tweet for help. I would give it a try if you want to do freelance writing or other jobs for hourly or fixed priced tasks. Even when I remove $275 on Friday to my bank account, I would replace that amount of money by late April. I haven't done any free skills tests in months though.

@MarymargII That is weird. You might want to try Hub Pages too. Keep me posted.

@KristenH May just do that as I am looking for dependable sites. Seems like ones I've been on for years all collapse after a while- Like Helium, The Examiner and even Swarmcontent right now! weird!

Too expensive to pay $275 a year for an annual membership.

@NJChicaa That's expensive. Mine's $40 a month and 7 dollars a day. You don't do yearly, I take it?

That is a nice sum! I guess I need to give that site another look. The best thing about it, is you don't have to drive anywhere to make the cash!

Not bad indeed. You should. That's a combo of two week's worth of work to get $100 into Paypal. That's for sure. You can work in your pajamas too.

@snowy22315 For sure. No traffic. You can set your own hours for lunch and bathroom breaks (but turning off the timer app).

I do miss my friends at the gym, Julia. I think my back misses the heated pool. I will!

@Juliaacv I'm sure too. At least the weather would be perfect to walk in, except for the rain.

summer pass sounds like a great idea, I think with weather like we have up here, I'd rather work out to a DVD at home in the winter or something

@KristenH I am pondering a summer pool membership, I think swimming a few times a week would do me good

@Jessicalynnt Good idea. See if you gym or Y has a free trial period. Mine has one for a week (7 days). Swimming would be good.

It is. I can afford it than a yearly membership. I don't blame you. I might want to hit the indoor water slide sometime this spring or summer on the weekends.

Which gym are you going to now? I use to spend a lot of time at 24 Hour Fitness and really became fit. I'm considering going back to a gym.

The same one I've been going for three years. It's called the Natatorium and the Nat for short. It's local and only ten minutes to work both ways. The others are a bit of a distance for me to talk. Go for it!

Pretty much. I did get some cleaning done, though my knees give me a bit of trouble lately. Oh well.

Yes it's a great place to do freelance work and get paid for it. Me too! I hope so, depending on my knees.

I am hopefully going to get back into yoga this week, but other than that, a LOT of writing.
