Swimming

Tonight, I am starting something I haven't done since Danika was about 8 months old. I am going swimming, deep water workout to be exact. I first did it with my mom and a friend of hers when I was about 17, I couldn't believe you can feel yourself sweat while in the pool! I loved it, I love going. Last time I stopped was because I didn't want to drive at night in the middle of winter, and haven't gone back- due to other reasons!

I decided this week to get back into it. I looked up classes and there is one at a local pool that starts at 8. That was perfect, so it must be meant to happen! I can get the kids in bed, and have enough time to drive there, get changed and get in! Then after I can have a relaxing hot tub and not worry about rushing home to help Brett with the kids, they are in bed!

This is me time, it is also working out and staying healthy. I do my wii fit as much as possible, but things do get in the way, especially since I try to do it in the middle of the day while the kids are napping. It is fun, I do like it, but I needed something more, something I didn't need to rush through or cut short due to the kids! So, this is perfect! I love swimming, being in the water is very relaxing for me, no matter what I am doing, the kids are home and in bed, so they won't interrupt, and after the 45 minute workout I can get in the hot tub and relax some more! Win, win for me!

Off I go!
