Ready..VENT! What keeps you from getting to the pool?

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!

    What keeps me out of the water? Besides my stupid shoulder, there is work travel, and work travel and then the winter blues. Sometimes I get home from work and I just can't get myself to get back in the car for an 8-9 PM workout. It's not so bad in the summer when it is light out, but in the winter when it is dark, cold and rainy I have troubles. Our pool is only open at night on Mondays and Wednesdays, so I have to make sure and get there those nights.
