Today, I shocked myself! Swimming 2/3 of a mile yesterday was quite impressive (for ME). Today, even though I had an 8-year-old and a 3-year-old with me, I swam A FULL MILE! Thirty laps!!! If I keep up like this, I might even get toned one day! I haven’t been toned since I was 19! (I’m 65 now.)
Not sure if I’ll be able to swim tomorrow, because I’m afraid it will make me too thirsty if I try to do it before my procedure, and I don’t know if I’ll feel like it afterward. Did I mention I swam A MILE!?
At the pool, I packed our food and I ate a boiled egg, a CarbMaster yogurt, 10 pecans, and a string cheese. Things also packed that I did NOT eat: chocolate chip cookies, oreos, grapes, Babybel cheese (just because I don’t care for it), and Blueberry mini-muffins. OH, did I mention I swam a mile???
I’m going to break my arm patting myself on the back! I just can’t believe I really DID it!!!

LOVE how y'all humored me! Thanks! Brought a smile to my pre-procedure face this morning. The mouthwash is working to keep me from dying without water.

Get Biotene - it really helps with dry mouth. I use it before job interviews.

Whoo-Hoo for the mile! I wish I could swim, but it’s’ pretty hard since I have to hold my nose closed. 😬 So to me, a mile is awesome! And I must’ve missed about you having a procedure. I sure hope you’re okay. I’ll add this to my prayers. 🙏🏻

I can't put my nose under water eiter, @laraae. I ordered a full-face diving mask and flippers from Amazon, and I use those. No water in the eyes or nose, you can even breathe THROUGH your nose instead of having to do it totally through your mouth, as with a snorkel. Might wanna consider getting one. It's made all the difference for me!
