susandennisSo the trip to the pool is horrible. And the trip home is worse. I think a 10 or 10:30 swim time is not a sweet spot but more a little less than rancid spot. The big problem is that once I get to the gym all is FAB. The people are nice. The pool is great and the swim is amazing.
Today I got there 20 minutes early and there was an empty lane to I got started. There was only one 10 minute period when all lanes were full. So I think my time slot is solid. My plan that I dreamed up while swimming this morning is that I'll do swims on Tuesdays and Thursdays and Saturdays and Sundays. I think that's fair and doable.
So I snagged a lane for 10:30 tomorrow morning. (Turns out the start on the hour rule the woman told me last week is a myth. They have 30 minute slots and if you book for an hour they block off two slots. Not complicated.)
Also while I was swimming I realized that heating up the oven to bake a pizza on a day when it is hotter than Texas here was not a solid plan. So I stopped by Krispy Kreme instead. I came home and made a gynormous salad with a tall glace of iced tea - delicious.
Biggie was all over me (and the keyboard) to report on the house cleaner and then he left. It's his naptime so no big deal. On a whim, I just raised the blind and, yep, he's in his tree again. He's like an old Southern lady, napping on the sleeping porch on a hot Summer day.
Oh! just made my first Venmo payment. These two women (mother/daughter team) make wontons and deliver. They are reputed to be magical. So I ordered. Several weeks ago. You must be patient. Their weird online order page says they are now working on orders to be filled the week of June 30! They only do Venmo. So I placed my order and then got a Venmo account and waited. A couple of weeks ago I got a text saying that the week of June 3rd is my week. Just now I got a text asking for payment. I cannot wait to taste these wontons!
Now I think I'll eat my donut and settle in for some knitting.
