  • If you get up at 4:45am M-F, sleeping til 7:00 on Sat/Sun sure feels like sleeping in. Ha! Just wait till your girls are old enough to swim regularly in meets where the warm up at some remote pool starts at 6:00 or 6:30 am ... And then, if it's a big meet and you're really "lucky," you get to go back for finals ... Saturday practice at 6:30 am too ... Oh, age group swimming is a lovely sport. I'm not letting my youngest too it. She's going to be a summer leaguer.
