Week #8 - LET'S GO!

BEST JOB EVER

My weekend was working in the best job ever. The job included some interior trim work, painting and moving furniture to prepare a new bedroom for Theodore to prepare for his little brother. It also included lots of tears...all mine after the Lions loss. But the best part was the snuggles and playtime with Teddy. A quick 24 hour time but the soul restoration made it so worthwhile.

A New Routine.
    I've decided to try something new to help accommodate the size of our team and get the most out of each athletic ability on this team. If we created some practice time in the morning,  we are able to get 8 lanes in the competition pool (instead of 6 in the West end pool in the afternoon) which would be ideal for the full 32 swimmers practice.  So, for the next few weeks, on Mondays and Thursdays we are going to have a practice from 6:00am to 7:30am.
We will still have an afternoon practice every day. On those Mondays and Thursdays the pool practice will be ONLY the Blue and Purple level groups. Mondays will still have a dryland at HCMS.

This arrangement begins this week Thursday will end on February 13.

I know this is a change and I hope it doesn't create a hardship for anyone. Feel free to communicate with me if you have questions or concerns.
