Just another Tuesday

I swam 5000 yards this morning with the Y Masters Team and felt wiped out. The long swim on Sunday sucked the life force out of me, but I got up, got to the pool and did the workout. I'm a lot slower than the guys I swim with, but they're a fun bunch and I want to get in the most yardage I can, so I stick with the Blue group. Coach Gary Bredehoft has us organized into three teams: Red, White and Blue depending on our volume.

I forgot the breakfast I had so lovingly prepared the night before. I suppose steelcut oatmeal will survive another day in the fridge. I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast power sandwich and coffee with an extra shot of esspresso at Panera Bread. It's an expensive treat, but worth it once and awhile. I enjoy munching on a yummy egg sandwich I didn't have to prepare while perusing through Facebook updates on my phone.
