Ready..VENT! What keeps you from getting to the pool?
Me first.
I am so bummed. Traffic was all jammed up because of an accident and oil spill on the expressway. It took me 2 hours and 10 minutes to get home. That's a 10 mile drive. I could have run faster if they let me take a straight line on the highway. I sat and peeled and ate an orange without even creeping forward. And not one of those tangelos or zipper peel kinds. Thank goodness I had snacks. I certainly didn't think to visit the ladies room before I left work. Normally even in the worst of traffic it's less than an hour. I couldn't even get off the highway because all the exits were jammed because the city was blocked up because people couldn't get on the highway.
And I thought traffic was going to be wasy because of school vacation week.
I work full time and go to school part time. That ate up all my swimming time for the evening. I went to work and left work early to get in some good pool time tonight.
Blech.
Your turn...NEXT!
JUst got over an illness. I was coughing and had fever, but the Doc said it was viral so I had to wait it out almost 2 weeks.. Open turns are bummers, but I need to cough on many turns and I feel sluggish in the water. Just got a cortisone (sp) shot for my shoulder today. I only started to have shoulder problems the last 2 years. Been swimming Masters for over 25 years. She suggested I not swim tomorrow. Fortunately it will be warm and sunny Wed so I can ride my bike in Cherry Creek State Park. Snow is expected for the weekend in the mountains, so I will be skiing until next week. Signed up for 50' s at our next meet, hopefully I will be back to my distance events in April. Thank goodness Long Course Nationals are not until August and I will be in a new age group. I feel like my gills have dried out!
