Well, we have joined the community pool this year. That is something I NEVER thought I would do, as I have had somewhat of a phobia of swimming in public places most of my life. When I go to the beach, I have my butt firmly planted in the sand, unless I am fully clothed, and then I will walk along the beach. Last year in the apartment, I think I got in the pool one time. But, I am so glad that my kids love the pool, love to swim, that I decided to tackle my fears. We have taken them 2-3 times a week the past 3 weeks, and I have gotten in the water with them almost everytime. That is HUGE for me! There are SO many people at the pool at all times, and in a way, I hate there being that many people there, but at the same time, I think that is what has helped me get over myself. I know there are so many people, nobody pays a lick of attention to me. Plus, I realize that the only people that are really in shape are the young lifeguards.
