Swimming!
Swimming costume and towel on the line for the first time for 5½ month.
After checking the website all week, at last on Saturday morning the booking schedule for the little pool I swim at was online.
I booked quickly - Slow Lane - 1.30pm. I went, swam and it was brilliant to be back. Because it was the first day there were just 2 people in the slow lane (which is actually half the pool- it's a small pool and only has 4 lanes). After 25 minutes I thought that was probably enough for the first swim since 2nd March( I stopped going before Covid because the changing rooms were closed for refurbishment).
On my way out I booked a morning swim for during the week.............two things in the diary next week ...........swim and library van..........another first since March.
Back Tomorrow

Great that you went swimming. I spoke to my friend yesterday and she started last week too.
ReplyDeleteIt was really good - and I hadn't forgotten how to swim!
DeleteGood for you Sue, small steps back to normality.

It felt like the most exciting thing to happen since March!
DeleteNormal life gets a step closer, it does feel good.
ReplyDeleteAt last and thank goodness
DeleteI bet you enjoyed your swimming I use to go to one of the big hotels in Heathrow and I was the only I there sometimes it was lovely.
ReplyDeleteHad a nice day yesterday my son came in the morning, by D, GD came to see him after he went my D and GD, GS and GF we went for a pub lunch near the canel it was nice not to my people about I was very tired in the evening.

I've only ever been the only person in the pool for just a few minutes - it felt very odd
DeleteThat's good news. Something you can enjoy. We all need that.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely
DeleteSlow steps back to normality that can only be good.
ReplyDeleteYes at last.
DeleteI haven't been swimming in years now, but was in and out all day long when we owned a boat. Glad to see you are able to do yet another thing to make life feel normal, even if real normality is months away. It all helps.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't been for years until I started going after Colin died - something I really enjoy
DeleteHow lovely to get back to something you enjoy, little pieces of normality.
ReplyDeleteYes it was so good
DeleteIt's good that things are slowly getting back to 'normal'. I'm glad you go to go swimming again, and the library van next week, yay ... I bet you're really looking forward to that.
ReplyDeleteThere's a large heap of books waiting for me - lovely!
DeleteGood to hear you’ve been to something you enjoy, Sue. I am just so disappointed that our village library which is run by the council still hasn’t opened up. We do wonder if it is ever going to open again or will this be used as an excuse for a permanent close down which is just the thing they are looking for.
ReplyDeleteI think councils are going to be very short of cash and will be looking for things to close down.
DeleteWe are wondering the same about the outlying branch of the doctors - once in 2 villages - they closed the small surgery at the beginning of lockdown and haven't opened it yet
How exciting the once mundane things are appearing right now x
ReplyDeleteAnything is exciting now if it means getting back to normal
DeleteIt's good that some sort of normality is returning for people. I think ours will only feel back to some sort of normality again when school re-opens. xx
ReplyDeleteNot long 'til schools are back I guess. Hope it all goes well
DeleteSo glad you were able to go! Not sure anything like that is open here yet.
ReplyDeleteSlowly things are happening at last
DeleteI think we are all getting pleasure from small happenings now.
ReplyDeleteAnything and everything seems exciting after months of nothing
DeleteYay! I'm so happy for you Sue! Slowly but surely things are getting back to normal. Swimming is so good for you physically and emotionally!
ReplyDeleteReturning to the things we enjoy gives you such a boost. Still not allowed to dance and try to concentrate on other things I can do now so that it doesn't upset me. Arilx
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that you got in for a swim and booked another go during the week.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Oh, how lovely! I'm so glad swimming has started again for you. It's made quite a difference to me.
