Sounds good (well, not really).

jenni4 - 2008-12-03 10:50 AM Busy week for me being the last week of classes for the semester, but I'll be done with finals by this time next week. So I will be chattier next week, I promise. Got a short run planned for today

Finals.  Yuck.  Good luck!

x2 what she said

Hey Vixens, got my first workout in against the challenge! I swam 1800 this morning. It felt pretty good, the shoulder only started to hurt after about 1000. My balance is off and I'm going to have to really work to get my stroke back, but it felt great to be in the water.

My pool has south-facing windows and now that the sun is lower in the sky, it was shining into the water right in the middle so I got to keep swimming through this beautiful beam of light. I loved that. When I turned to breathe there I couldn't even see because it was so bright. Moments like that are really nice.

That is nice!  Great job on gettin into the pool!

So for your upcoming move, do you have to do anything to the new place before you move in?  Have you scoped out a new fitness center?

I'm one of those people that goes to a new place and cleans it top to bottom before I move in so I figure that will take a few days, maybe a week. Then I'm going to do as much painting as possible before I have my furniture moved. I like color so I'll want to personalize it and make it my own.

I've been agonizing over the fitness stuff. I'd like to join Equinox which is beautiful and has locations all over the city. I can use the gym in Brooklyn Heights, very close to my new place, but the pools are all in Manhattan locations. But they are impeccably nice, never crowded and have unrestricted hours. So my thinking is that i'd go on the way to or from work. The locker rooms are nicer than my home so I could just get ready there. But I wonder if that's a bad call, to not have the swimming in Brooklyn. I just don't know.

I'm the same way with cleaning a place and with color.  I LOVE color.

Now the pool thing, how far away is the closest facility with a pool?  Are you someone who will go out of your way to get to the pool?

It's not close. I could bike there, it's about 4 miles, nice ride over the Brooklyn Bridge, quick shot across lower Manhattan then up the Hudson River path. I could take the train, it's about 5 stops. I don't swim on weekends though so I'm thinking it would work, I'll just swim when I'm in Manhattan for work and what not. Or maybe I'm just trying to talk myself into it.

I travel about a mile to the pool now. It's a 20 minute walk or about 6-7 on the bike depending on the traffic lights.

Are there any other facillites that would work?  Although it does sound like you are trying to talk yourself into this one.

Well I hit 1000, but I lost all my purdy stars.

I guess that just means more posting encouraging to get more stars.

Too funny, I just posted in the Hot Toddies that I missed my stars!

This whole having to work on my day off is no fun! Of course now I at least get paid so I guess that's fun. Sigh, I'd rather just lay here and watch movies all day.
