How's my semester going? Great so far! I'm not teaching and am enjoying the break. And I've stayed healthy so far.
My big excitement this semester is the wonderful swimming schedule. I get to swim six days a week! And I've really improved. Tonight I swam for an hour and a half. At one point I did 4.75 laps without a break. I could have done many more, but I stopped to help a guy get his goggles from the bottom of the deep end. I was swimming very slowly, but I swam steadily and didn't feel tired. That's a huge improvement in stamina, efficiency, and confidence. And I'm now fitting into pants I haven't worn in a year or more. This is what I hoped to accomplish last semester. Well, that and more cooking and cleaning. I'm still working on the cooking and cleaning.
