Stiffness


I was thinking that this morning I was going to be stiffness. Yesterday evening my children and I were in the indoor pool. While I  was swimming some lengths my children were playing to something. When I met with them, they were competing to see who was faster running inside the water.

First I have to say that the Friday is the best day of the week to go to the pool. That day there are not swimming courses and, I do not know the reason, but very few people go to the pool and we have, almost all time, the whole pool for us.  Perhaps I am an strange father and I should take my kids to burger bar or something like that, I do not know.  I only know that my children really enjoy a lot these occasions.  The jokes in the changing room, the first shower, the games in the pool and some "aguadillas" (to hold somebody's head under water), then a while in the jacuzzi, the last shower, get dressed, stop for a moment to see their Grandma, who lives near the sport centre... In short, Friday evening is a great joy for them.

Well, as I was saying, in some moment I joined them and I discovered a great exercise to my legs. We were quite a while spinning around the pool and, when we stopped, I felt my legs broken.

  1. I was thinking that this morning I was going to be (stiffness) STIFF, OR SUFFERING FROM STIFFNESS Yesterday evening my children and I were in the indoor pool. While I was swimming some lengths my children were playing (to) something. When I met with them (OR JOINED THEM), they were competing to see who was (faster) FASTEST running (inside) IN the water.

    First I have to say that (the) Friday is the best day of the week to go to the pool. That day there are (not) NO swimming courses and, I do not know the reason, but very few people go to the pool and we have, almost all THE time, the whole pool (for us) TO OURSELVES. Perhaps I am (an) A strange father and I should take my kids to A burger bar or something like that, I do not know. I only know that my children really enjoy a lot these occasions.OR THEY REALLY ENJOY THESE OCCASIONS A LOT. The jokes in the changing room, the first shower, the games in the pool and some "aguadillas" (to hold somebody's head under water), then a while in the jacuzzi, the last shower,THEN WE get dressed, AND stop for a moment to see their Grandma, who lives near the sport centre... In short, Friday evening is a great joy for them.

    Well, as I was saying, in some moment I joined them and I discovered a great exercise (to) FOR my legs. We were quite a while spinning around the pool and, when we stopped, (I felt my legs broken) IT FELT LIKE MY LEGS WERE BROKEN.

    Well, Eduardo I think you are doing a great job taking your children swimming rather than taking them to a burger bar, they obviously enjoy it very much and also it is much healthier!!!! I also love swimming and swim twice a week at the local gym. I enjoyed reading your story.

  2. Thanks Katie. I'm glad you enjoyed my story. Like you I also think that go to the pool is much healthier and on the other hand my relationship with my sons is growing stronger.
