<<Desperately in need of a work out,>>
I was never a really physical creature. Until I met my husband who had a
membership to the local gymn. And there was a pool. And I love water. It is
the ultimate safety/cradle. And then I read that swimming burned, like, 3
times
as many calories as treadmilling or weight-lifting and I'm middle-aged and
was getting the tire around the middle so I said I can do this. Play in the
water to get skinny. And I did 2 laps and thought I would die. And did three
the next day. And then 2 miles, finally, because as much as you swim you want
to swim more. It is entirely addictive. If you are away for a while you are
insane. It takes a few days back to restore the sanity. There is a place, in
the water where everything "real" goes away. And Sanity is restored. Sort of
a Zen thing. Go work out, Andy. Please.
A.A. I don't know why it's such a hard sell to most people. Especially after
a hard day, there's nothing like it. Not for Body Beautiful reasons either.
It just feels great and, as you say, is sanity making.

Shortly after a two-month hiatus, back on the road to sanity.
