Swim Progress


Sometimes playing is all a person wants to do.
Sand
Water
Sun 
Toys
Time alone to focus 
Or exercise that has become fun for people like me.

In previous blogs I told you that I am swimming after not being in water for many years.
The situation is I went at it too fast.

My neck and shoulder have not been right for the past three weeks.
Knot on left side of my shoulder, my neck tense.
By the end of the day the shoulder is pretty sore and aches.

Happy to report I am doing better because I quite using my arms in the water!
Applying ice and heat.
Had a deep tissue massage.

The only way I can be in the water is with my board to do those laps with just kicking.
Better than nothing I suppose, it is hard to be patient.

Meanwhile I see people swimming every which way.
Under water, back swim, butterfly, side stroke, you name it.
One older lady who use to teach swimming told me I did too much too fast.
Then there she goes swimming all the way across this pool taking NO breaths.
Good for her I say.
 I will be back swimming soon, because it is better each day.

Dog Food Delights


When my visitors were here from Southern California...
We went wine tasting and looking around in little shops.
  
I had no idea that "dog shops" cater fancy treats for dogs.

Meaning they have display cases with fancy food goodies all for canines.
The treats looked good enough to eat for people.
How would I know this not being a dog owner?

BOXER BROWNIES
were eye catching...

These shops kept saying how they use Carob instead of Chocolate for dog food.
I did know about carob being better for pets than chocolate.

CHECK OUT THE CASES!


I have learned more about dogs in these past few months.
Companions
Pals
family members
and loved dearly...
