Ahhh! 3:15 on a Friday afternoon with work behind me and the weekend ahead and a question in my head, "What should I do now?" I could go home and take a nap, after all I was feeling a little drowsy, but I wanted to do something a little out of the ordinary and there was that pesky gym bag haphazardly packed and perched on the passenger seat of my car, its contents slightly spilling out of it, particularly my bathing suit. Earlier in the morning I hastily put a towel, flip-flops and a comb in the bag. All of the things I had forgotten to pack the day before and which had precluded my carrying out the plan to go swimming then. Nothing was going to stop me today except for my lack of self discipline, but as a precaution, I had also packed my gym clothes. Again, nothing was going to stop me from getting some sort of workout into the schedule except for my lack of self discipline and the desire to curl up and take a nap. I clenched my teeth, put the car in gear and headed for the JCC.
To anyone who's wondering, I took the plunge and swam about 12 laps. Nothing impressive, I know, but I didn't want to push myself. I have to say, it felt great to be back in the pool. As a reward for my efforts I went into the sauna for about 10 minutes and emerged a slightly newer, definitely more relaxed, self. Now I can start to enjoy the weekend as I hope anyone who reads this will as well.
Until the next time! Modgirl
