Swim?
So yesterday we confirmed that I didn't forget how to run. Good. This morning I went to the pool to see if I was still capable of swimming and although they've been deliberating for some time on the topic, the jury is still out on that one. :)
I didn't drown. But I felt pretty "messy" - like I hadn't swam in...well...10 or 11 days. I know that doesn't sound bad but apparently it is. I'm not too worried though. I think over the next 11 months, I can find my stroke again in the pool. :)
O came with me to the pool. I only swam 2000 yds - just enough to remind me that those pushups that I did yesterday made my arms quite sore. Funny how long it takes to get into shape but how quickly we lose it!
Regardless, tomorrow is Thanksgiving and that makes me quite happy! I truly try to be "thankful" every day - helps me get through life's annoyances - but there is nothing like a national holiday to really remind me of all the things I have to be thankful for. The list is long and wide.
As of right now though, I'm most excited and thankful about the fact that both of my parents are on their way to my house! My father already happened to be in Pittsburgh for work but my mom flew up from South Carolina this morning and O is on the way to pick her up at the airport. Add to that the fact that's it's pizza night and...well...I need not say more.
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday. Happy Thanksgiving!
