Ok--busted my keister in the pool today--came home shakey but that is ok since guess Joan and Dianne do too.

Goal for today was 31 laps.
Long term goal: swim a mile.

Pushed myself and did my 31 laps today =4,650feet.

I am laughing at myself today--decided senility is good for me. I thought I swam 30 laps last week--NOT!!! It was 20 and so today set my goal for 1 more lap. No wonder I came home wiped--I actually did 11 more laps than I did last week.

wohoooooooooo 11 more laps and not knowing it until you where done

Sounds like senility is the way to go here Great Job.

Made it to the gym--think they had the air conditioner off as it was very hot and humid in there today and I ended up sweating enough for two people.

Met an old friend there this morning that i used to work with at the hospital and he is battling the battle of the bulge the same as I am. So we rode and sweated together and go caught up on old times.

Rode the recumbent bike for 45 Minutes at an average speed of 3.6MPH and at level 1:2.

Hope everyone has a good day!!!

This is rediculous--I must be developing a habit or something but I felt guilty for not going to the gym and swimming so went out and swam laps here tonight under the stars! Always think of special friends when I see the stars and beautiful moon like we have tonight.

OK: Swimming: 50 laps x 64 feet=3,200feet total.

Since our friends will be here on Monday--I won't go to the gym so am thinking of swimming another 50 laps tomorrow to make up for the missed day.

Hope everyone has a good evening. Hugs to you all----

Now this calls for a star in the exercise book

I think Alice should get a star for being out there swimming under the stars. Great going Alice, and here's your star.
