If I'm not wearing my wetsuit, I get this crazy notion that I can't really swim and I'll drown.<BR/><BR/>They say it really does get better with repetition and if you have someplace to practice on a regular basis, count your blessings, get a friend to follow you in a kayak and you'll be swimming like flipper in no time!Ann (bunnygirl)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04938134750150653386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11966390.post-1119360838460606052005-06-21T08:33:00.000-05:002005-06-21T08:33:00.000-05:00Haven't you heard of the new super hero?

I can swim all day in the pool because of those magic security blanket lane dividers and the whole <I>nothing nipping at me or trying to strangle me</I> thing that it also has going for it. <BR/><BR/>I've learned that the only way to get over it is to go through it...over and over again.
