This morning after I posted a blog and read and commented on some blogs here, I dressed to come out and walk, my usual morning daily walk.
But as I go out, I noticed the dark clouds and it is drizzling, the road is wet, and so it is not advisable for me to go out. It seems the weather is so erratic. It should had been the start of summer season in the Philippines, but it rained!
Last night, I heard the rain, and so I thought it will shine in the morning because it is summer here. But it still rained, so I have to do other options, like logging in again here are Literacybase to post this blog.
In the past, when we say it is summer, there is no rain; only so much sunshine and the temperature rises also. As high as 35 to 50 degrees Centigrade in Metro Manila. But in our place, it is usually relatively cooler than in Metro Manila because it is located in a higher place and there are still lots of plants and trees to make the environment cooler.
In the northern part of the Philippines, it is warmer, except for Baguio City, which is cool, because it is located in a mountain, so it is called the Summer Capital of the Philippines. So many local and foreign tourists go there especially during summer vacation.
Another place where people wanted to go is the beach. There are so many beautiful beaches here in our country, and the most famous is Boracay Island in the Visayas. It is famous for its white, fine sand. There are also famous destinations like in Palawan, Puerto Galera in Oriental Mindoro, in Bohol, Siargao, in Ilocos Norte, among other beautiful seashores in the country.
My mind drifted to these beautiful places because the Lenten Season is about two weeks from now and it is customary for us to go to some local places here to rest and relax. We also visit different churches during the Lenten Season.
And so this morning because I could not go out and walk outside, I will use my strider, or air walker exerciser to have that needed walk. The strider can simulate the walking motion and it has less impact on the knees and other leg joints. I might also go up and down the stairs for added exercise.
When you can not go out to exercise, to jog or walk, what alternatives do you do? Does the erratic weather also frustrate you?

Yes, I even posted that it's already summer already, since the past 5 days before today, it was so sunny always. But last night too it rained a bit. Then this morning it was a bit gloomy and it drizzled. But as of now, I can see the sun shining again.
Well, I like it if summer is like this- a rain once in a while. At least, it won't dry the fields and the plants and will not be so hot.
But as to exercising, I just exercise at home, in our bedroom actually, in the space like a small sala , while my hubby sleeps. No need to go out. I just dance like crazy so all my body will be shaken. I do dancing, some dumb bells exercise and the tummy trimmer. At least, it helps me to lose some unwanted fats, even for a bit. ha ha ha
That's the positive side of it. The weather became cooler, until now, the sun is not shining so hot unlike in the past days.
It is good you religiously exercise even inside your bedroom. That's great!
This day it rains so hard here and thankful for my decision to time out under time because I see dark clouds . I was so afraid . I remember the last months flood in our university when 5,000 were stranded, water height was so high. When i arrived home the rain dropped so hard. I am afraid I will wake up too early tomorrow to avoid walking again in muddy road where the bridge is still on renovation, We feel so sad whenever it rains here,yes it is summer but ket us be thankful that there is rain sometimes to let plants grow and survive.
I hope you can have your usual activity tomorrow.
So it is also raining in your place? Yes, it could be a blessing in disguise because plants and trees will become green, so with the farmers' crops. They can have water even it is already summer.
Thanks, I guess it will not rain tomorrow morning.
