One of the lifeguards at our community centre pool, who I’d estimate to be in his mid-twenties, sometimes joins in with our aquafit class from the pool deck while he’s also watching to make sure we don’t drown. We have often been amused and heartened by his efforts to lift one leg, stand on one foot, and do jumping jacks on dry land along with those of us (mostly elderly folk) who are doing the ex

"What am I doing here?" I feel the same, Mary, sometimes. With all I have to do... But it is a neat site for book worms such as myself. And, nice to be friended, as they say, by a fellow book worm.
What am I doing here? I can't keep up with facebook and twitter (not that I try to "keep up" but do like to check in to those places and sometimes hang out) and I'm buried in freelance work at the moment (not complaining about that, either). Someday I'll get started here. Soon I hope. Thanks for the welcome.
