72 Lengths=1 Mile

We joined the YMCA. I absolutely love being by a pool, sunning and reading. I could do it 16 hours a day! I used to swim 1 mile in college (hard but I could do it). I am much older and weathered so I could only swim 5 lengths. On the 5th length, I came up for air and inhaled a tiny bit of water. I started the ugly cough. I prayed I would not throw up in the pool. Someone did that a couple of weeks ago and it was quite an ordeal. EVERYONE had to get out of the pool for 45 minutes. They skimmed and hosed and cleaned for 20 minutes.

If I had barfed today, it would have been the last time I ever showed my face at that YMCA!!
