I want the 80s back!!

It has been so hot here that we haven't been able to be outside as much.  Its nice having the pool but when its 104 degrees outside even our pool isn't refreshing enough.  Next week the temps are supposed to go down to the high 80's and everyone is looking forward to it.  Ella will be having a birthday soon and I can not believe she will be 2 years old.  How the time has flown by? Jade started riding a two wheeler with training wheels and we have been going on bike rides when its not scorching out.  I managed to get into the doctors to have my bump checked out on my ankle and its tendonitis. It sucks. I haven't been able to do cardio kickboxing or run in some time now.  I even took a week off of Karate to rest it.  The pain is easing and I am going to see a sports medicine doctor soon.  I have a couple of 5ks coming up and want to be able to run.  I have gained some weight as a result of this and feel pretty low.  I am sure I will get it off again but the ups and downs of weight loss makes it very discouraging.  I have been biking as it doesn't cause any pain in my ankle but again the heat takes a toll on someone trying to get outside to exercise.  My 12 mile ride the other day in 100 degrees was great but I didn't feel like I got as good of a work out as kickboxing gives me. Last weekend we spent a day at the waterpark, Jade and Alex had a blast.  The wave pool was packed and the lines to ride on any waterslide were so long it was almost not worth it.  We went to dinner and then watched a movie.  It was a nice weekend.  The Fourth of July was not much to brag about.  With the heat and dry weather all of the fireworks were cancelled and going to the parade in 102 weather was not sounding fun.  Alex's summer school was cancelled due to heat so I have been struggling to keep him from driving me insane.  It will be nice to get back to the 80's.  thanks for reading xoxo
