I have a new bathing suit, I’ve made my body as presentable as it can be all things considered, and I’m ready to start swimming again. Haven’t swum seriously since high school; once in awhile I’ve gone swimming since but never really for exercise, just for fun and sometimes with the nephews. I’m sure my form will suck but it’s the activity that matters, right? Maybe once I get back into it I’ll enroll in a class or something – I know the local Y offers a class for adults to work on their strokes.
Still haven’t overcome the basic problem of eyesight, though. I’m very nearsighted and hate going without my glasses – though I probably won’t physically run into people in the pool, I find it very disorienting, like living in a Monet painting, but without all the serenity and French landscapes. Maybe I should find out just how expensive it would be to get prescription goggles. Any ideas, anyone?
