Foundation level 1
Hips and glutes stretch

Hopefully I'll have time to read and catch up with you all.
I already feel better after only a few days of exercise. If the war won't make it to where I live, I might have a chance.

No sweat cardio level 3
Cat girl yoga
Care package stretching

I went to bed early last night which turned out to be a good decision. The houtis fired a rocket after midnight and the sirens woke me up but I was able to go back to sleep not long after.

No workout tonight. I figured it wouldn't be a good idea and I was right.
Poor Millie, I can't get her to come out from under the table.

Lean legs workout
Standing core workout
Tight hips workout

I went to a job interview last week and yesterday they told me I got the job so I quit my "dream job" today.
The new place hardly allows overtime and it has a driving service so I won't be able to fake sick as much. I think it can really do me good.

Thanks everyone.
New job is boring and easy and awesome. I already dropped 4 kilos since starting it. Only 16 more to go to get to my previous healthy weight.

Also, I'm so glad I don't live in Europe... or the US... or Canada.
Best of luck BTW

Still no clue what you are talking about. What has Amsterdam got to do with you being happy you don't live in Europe or the US or Canada? And to whom are you wishing good luck for what?
just a little link to the event, @Laura Rainbow Dragon .

ETA : this is just one article so only one report / opinion of the event, but I thought the media would be well-enough known that people can read it smartly.

We got an Israel/France soccer match coming next week in St Denis, just north of Paris (where my offices actually are), so that got everybody very worried for the supporters's safety.

Hugs to all, and as @Gandhalfit says, luck for the peacemakers.

If I understand correctly, riots continues in Amsterdam even now. Maybe some Ajax fans kept singing 🤔

I shouldn't treat walks as exercise. Whenever I swap exercise with walking my stupid knees act up.

Stay safe everyone

Whatever your situation: do not travel there. It is too dangerous.)

It is far, far more dangerous where you are than anywhere in Canada, pretty much anywhere in the United States, and pretty much anywhere in Europe.
You suggest that western countries somehow need "luck" to be peaceful. But it's your country that is at war with your neighbours.
Whoever has been telling you that Europe and North America are somehow less peaceful or less safe than Israel is lying to you.

To add to what @Laura Rainbow Dragon said, if you come here as an individual Jew or Israeli, you are unlikely to be at any higher risk than anyone else.
If you come here as a mob of notoriously aggressive football hooligans and then vandalise and threaten Amsterdam, and yell racist shit in a city with a large muslim population, yeah you might run into some trouble.

Despite our despair at the situation in the Middle East, we do not blame you, an individual citizen, or your religion for this.
These are political choices; you are not the person in charge of those choices, and you are still welcome <3

No, not for Jews. I'll take rockets and drones any day. At least their intentions are clear
