SWIM THIS WAY

I swam 10 miles yesterday!

Okay, that's not really true...except in my mind.

I took my daughter to the pool yesterday since it was a bright, warm, sunny Saturday morning on Guam.  I normally don't go in the water with her.  I don't know why I don't because I love the water.

My daughter motivated me today, though.  It didn't take much motivation because I've been secretly wanting to go swimming for the longest time.

It's odd because it's as if I've been talking myself OUT of swimming all these months we've lived on Guam even though I really want to.

Don't raise that eye brow at me!  I see you doing it.

This day was different.  I had the urge to swim laps.  Now realize that the last time I swam laps was 1994 while stationed on Diego Garcia.  That was the other time I live in the middle of the ocean thousands of miles from anywhere.

I splashed around for a while and and then I did it.  Yes, I borrowed my daughter's goggles and took off for the lap lanes.

So no, I didn't really swim 10 miles but I DID swim 200 meters...which I didn't think was bad for a middle-aged overweight woman who hasn't done regular exercise of ANY kind for centuries.

Anyway, what that taught me was what I have know all along...I may work full-time at a day job, work after hours building my network marketing business, take care of my daughter, and do all the chores inside and outside of the house, but there is always time for exercise IF and only IF I decide to do it.

For all you out there reading this, especially the single parents, you can do it.  I want to help you do it.  I'm taking the 90 Day Challenge by Visalus which is helping me initially shed all those excess pounds, then help me maintain my muscle.
