Half Day Off!

We got a three-hour early release, so I was outta there around 11:30 and in the pool by 12:15ish.  It was overcast, with nice peeks of sun, and not too crowded. Actually, I was first one in the pool with the lap lane. Nothing like getting into that smooth water and being the first to plow through it.  Since I lifted weights in the morning, my shoulders were pretty tired. I managed to swim an hour---about 60 laps of freestyle/breastroke.  My left side is weaker than my left---result of the broken clav, broken elbow, and being right handed. I'm going to have to work on strengthening it by doing extra sets on that side when I lift weights.

This morning's bike ride was nice, too. Very humid but most of the rain from Wednesday evening had evaporated. A couple foxes crossed my path, so it was double good luck (hence the three-hour early release).

Got home to dog madness. Actually, Margot wasn't too bad today and I was able to finish my Michael Connolly book.  Brian was so sweet, as he was able to stop on his way home and get a couple scat mats, plus some Avoderm for Maeve and Fiona. Going to just all EVO has made their coats/skin dry, so the Avoderm will get them back on track.

I'm taking a couple days off, so I've started a five-day weekend!!  Looks like the weather will be nice, too.
