The Best Afternoon

I escaped work at around 11:30 to take the Subaru in for it's scheduled maintenance and State inspection. When I made the appt, they promised that it would take only 45 minutes. I didn't believe it, so I took  the entire afternoon off, figuring I'd be sitting around waiting.

To my surprise, the car was done within the promised time frame, and I made it home by just after one. I let the beasts out for a bathroom break, changed into my swimsuit, and went to the pool.  It was not too crowded, despite the sunny and very warm conditions, and I swam for almost an hour.  I think I logged in 66 laps or so. Lost count after 60 because several kids decided to invade the lap lanes and "swim" splashy, wandering laps. It was OK because I was just about done.
