Full grocery bags and full potting soil bags make great free weights.
No garden at current abode, and the landlords are so damn strict that we'd be lucky to get away with a small potted plant outside without getting a reprimand. So not many free weights for me till we've moved. I can hardly "weight" to move. See what I did there?

That's what I thought! Beanies and suspenders. I'm gonna keep at it.
As for exercise, I went swimming yesterday. Today, I did another 1.2mi/1.6km/20mins walk in the morning. I am feeling it, but I know it's the process to getting healthier and more athletic. The wisest woman I knew said something about, "If you're trying to get to the flowers on the other side of the forest, don't stop in the forest. Look for the flowers." I'm way off with the exact quote, but that was the message. Little did she know that the forest sounds kind of nice: shade, quieter, cooler, cover/protection. But I also like flowers, so maybe I'll chill in the treeline
and see why everyone is all about these flower fields.Same! I like the forests and the fields too! Take time to see all of the treasures of the woods and stop to admire the flowers. There are so many mushrooms, birds and critters as well. That’s my Heaven on Earth.

You don’t need free weights. Stretchy resistance bands work well in small spaces.
Or you can just relax and read a good book. Which sounds nice too.
Another type of exercise for the mind.

I'll think about that.

Another type of exercise for the mind.I read aloud, so it exercises my jaws too - it seems my brain refuses to do anything that doesn't kill 2 birds with one stone. Hence the appeal of carrying compost.
