I need to build back up some strength and practice in my manual chair, but it's just too damn hot outside.

Where's a good place to practice in my chair?

I also have dumbbell style water weights, is there some useful I can do with that?

(If it helps, I'm ambulatory except for long distance as a baseline, but I've been told to use my wheelchair more often because I keep spraining my foot)

Thank you

So there's a bunch of stuff that I need to do, and I'm having trouble doing it without setting myself into a flare, by, if I do manage to take a baby step forward, immediately getting SO resentful it took everything I had left over that I stay up too late looking at things at my phone that I'm not even really reading because I'm too tired.

Edit: don't think I explained myself well. I work full time and have limited energy after work. Unfortunately, the tasks I need to do after work tend to take up every single thing I have left, which makes me resentful, and I don't take care of myself well, which tips me into a flare, and so the cycle spins around again.

I know that resentment is gonna take years and therapy, but
I don't have either - I have a month to move countries. And I'm in the goddamn bed,

Thank you for your ideas. Please don't suggest meds (no time) or (illegal) gummies, thank you :)
