Saved by swimming

[susandennis]

It was just too sad here so I went swimming.  Today is class day but I really didn't feel like that kind of swimming. I just wanted to swim laps so I did.  And it was great and helpful.  In my mind, I rearranged the house for life without Betty - put away a litter box and reorganized the eating situation.  It was easier to figure out without having to actually face it.

It was a good swim. I got a little counter thingie that you wear like a ring so I could keep count of my laps.  I know it makes no difference how long I swim or how many laps but I just wanted to know.  Today I swam a half mile.  I like the sound of that.

Now I have cleaning out to do.  In addition to the litterbox and food things, when I went into the fridge to find lunch I found a couple of science projects.  Time to clean out the fridge, too.  That's my afternoon and I'm starting in 1, 2, 3...

Susan, as some others have done, I'm backtracking to read this. I'm so sorry about Betty, but it truly seems she gave you a clear indication it was time. I'm glad you have Zoey, and your pictures and memories.
