I found, I went, I swam, I took a shower...

Not long after I posted the previous post, I went back one more time and found my swimsuit on the floor of the closet.
I changed into it ASAP, grabbed a towel and my camera, and headed for the pool.
There were about 20 other people there I think, I didn't stop and count, but it was okay. It's nice to have the pool to myself, but then it's also nice not to have to make a pool reservation so I wasn't so close to other people 'cause of COVID restrictions.
There were lots of kids there having fun, too--which was also nice to see. LOL--once I was getting out of the pool and a boy squirted me with a water gun. The mother said, "Oh, I'm so sorry." but they were just being kids, and like I told the mom, "It's okay, I was already wet. "
There was what seemed one entire family there--and they had the cutest little toddler girl.
The grandmother told me that they had lived there a month, and lived "on or in the corner". Well, there are a lot of corners in that apartment complex, but maybe I'll run into them again on one of my walks.
While I did some laps, I tried to be careful of my shoulder, as last year I pulled a muscle that hurt for a couple of weeks. I still have the pain cream I was given for that.
No problems with my shoulder as yet, but my lower back hurts. It's fun getting old.

It's great that you still can swim and have fun with other pool visitors. The pain may come and go, especially muscle pain not bone pain due to porous problem.

Yes, I have sciatica, I'm guessing that the pain I have has something to do with that.

Good to know that you enjoyed the swimming. I love swimming too but the pool is always very crowded. I dare not to go due to Covid.
