The gym opens at 8 on sundays so I gave them time to get open and called at 8:10 for a swim reservation tomorrow. They are only open from 8-4 tomorrow because of the holiday so I was not hopeful. The first good news is that I snagged an hour slot at 8 which is what I wanted. The second good news is that when I asked what was available, he said "everything. all slots are open." Yeah it's a holiday and so not normal but it is encouraging that it's not so busy. (The other gym pool was always crowded before the pandemic and reservations are tight there now.)
But, the bad news is that it is still a hike to get there. At least tomorrow it should be a basically traffic-less hike. First one in the pool. Just like old times.
I have a music player for swimming (it also counts the laps and gives me an update on my progress and pace as I go along). I gave up my Spotify account when the pools closed because really the only use I had for it was to feed this little player. I was not going to start it up again this time but discovered a 3 months for $10 deal so I did. So today, I need to set it up to Spotify again and add some new stuff to my swim playlist.
In other good news, Biggie is, truly, more calm around Robby now. I've been setting Robby lose to do the living room while I'm on the treadmill every morning. Biggie has been nervously keeping an eye on him on and off while he works. But, this morning, he didn't even wake up until Robby was half way done and then he didn't seem to care. Once I'm in the living room with my coffee, I set Robby to work in the other half of the house. Biggie was totally fine with that today. So ... yeah!
Now he's next to me on the couch snoring very loudly.
Today will be knitting and baseball and maybe laundry. I have food and it's not hot yet. Life is excellent here.
