I have made it to the pool every day for the past week or so. My shoulders feel strong. My knee has held up. I may even be getting my butt back!
Yesterday I brought my Dollar Tree squishy ball to the pool. It's about 5" across. I tossed it across the pool. I chased it down, and tossed it to my next destination. I chased it there.Yep, I was playing fetch with myself. I have no shame.
Finally,a kid showed up with his dad and little brother. The bigger kid was about six. We played catch in the pool for about half an hour. It was a happy happy joy joy time.
I then realized I was ready for dinner. I was hungry. I went home.
I now have two or three "new friends" I can play catch with in the pool. I'll let it get a bit warmer before I head out to there today.
What's on your agenda for today?

That's a good way to get some exercise without just swimming laps.
Our Wednesday Project Hero ride is in a couple hours. That's my plan for the day.
