40 Lengths … I think April 12, 2007

A Few Ups and Downs Today April 11, 2007

Started off ok … dropped the dogs off to Phyllis. She gave me her shopping list. On the top was pills underlined and in bold. I guess she needed them badly …
I get to the pools and it takes me over half an hour to get to swim as old workmates want [...]
