Endurance needed


Another postcard, with vellum

Bet you thought I wasn't going to post today, well I almost didn't.  I have been watching art videos, courses I have signed up for and have not got to yet, ssh don't tell hubby, he wonders when I will be graduating, and if I am top of the class for all the courses I have been taking.

Today devil dog went to doggy daycare, and I spent the day shopping, took the other string bikini back and bought another one, not quite the pin up model but it will get by.  Why?  Because I signed up for swimming lessons, not the kiddy ones, but Adults.  I know how to swim, my father was a lifeguard in a former life and never forgot it, we learned to swim at age 4, and had all the lessons you could take.  No i need to pump up my endurance, because I plan to swim in the swim lane.  I looked at it today and it looked like it was as far away as Australia, so endurance is needed.  Plus I don't think I have swam a lap in 20 years.  I have been in a pool lounging around, but never really swimming.  Before you know it I will be in such great shape,I will be teaching the classes (lol).  After all I have graduated from pumping the soup cans, to using 1 litre milk containers filled halfway with water.  

Well enough about body beautiful, I did some art, some sketching as well, just stuff to keep my mind busy, and am now watching American Idol.  So I will sign off and talk to you soon..

  1. I love swimming, it's one activity that I start to miss very quickly that gets me back into gym (never an easy task for me :)). Because I mainly swim in the gym's swimming pool I tend to buy those sporty one-piece swimming suits which tuck in all the wobbly bits very nicely, it's a perfect excuse for me to avoid the nightmare of wearing a bikini :D
