Miscellaneous

I was finally able to get a lot more laps in today. Twenty-two!! I have 11 ponytail holders on my pretend swim buoy and lately have been doing about 12 laps. That's terrible considering I was doing 30 before the surgery. The only thing is that these weren't all freestyle strokes. Most of them were, though. I moved all 11 over and then did it all over again for a total of 22. I can't go back now, so tomorrow I'll have to do at least 22 again. I just can't seem to get the dolphin kick. I don't need to do it; I just think that it would be a good core exercise. I've watched videos on GoSwim, but I look real silly doing the drills. I think I need fins.

I'm so glad my heartburn has gone away. There's maybe just a touch of it left, but not bothersome like it was. I probably should take the Zantac every morning anyway.

Sack had her first basketball game last Saturday morning. They tied at 8. I didn't know they would end it in a tie! She fell down once and fought for the ball once, too! She plays with 2 others girls from Natcher and the other 5 are from Briarwood.

Igle had cataract surgery yesterday. His blood pressure went way up and they couldn't let him leave until it went down. They tried having him empty his bladder (!), putting some medicine in his I.V. and then, finally, giving him Tylenol and that's what worked. Who knew Tylenol could lower your blood pressure?

My hair is getting long! Longer than it's been in over 20 years. I have a pic of DH and I being the MC's at the Homecoming and it's touching my shoulders. That was just a few years ago. It is now touching my shoulders and then some. It's showing more gray than I'd like around my face. But the color doesn't seem to be noticeable at the roots, so I don't really wanna pay big bucks right now.

Until next time...
