I believe I can float.. Oops! Swim!

I joined swimming classes last Tuesday! Hoping to make my dream of me and hubby swimming together come true.
By the looks of it, I may or may not! :-(

Its soo exhausting.. beating my legs is one of the 'crucial' things I forget all the time.
Somehow I have this in my mind, that I'm too light weighted and can float in water! :-)
Wish I really did float!

I can use either my hands in water or beat my legs to sail thru. Not both! Talk about multitasking! LOL!

They provide us with swim boards to learn and I am stuck every meter !! I can hardly go forward. Supposedly I don't peddle my legs enuf!

Either I end up drinking chlorine(and what not! yikes) water thru my mouth or nose,
or stand up in the pool
or laugh seeing other bad swimmers (learners) just like me
or block my ears with water and keep trying to get it out of my system!

Did I mention? My instructor is cute :P I wont give up ofcourse!

Calvin and Hobbes

I love this kid - Calvin - Totally!
He oozes out cuteness from every inch of his body!

The overtly creative, super smart for his age kid, Calvin with his stuffed sarcastic tiger Hobbes make a perfect hilarious comic!

For all you Calvin lovers , this is the complete series LINK

His imaginations run wild and his philosophy is as good as it can get!
He is allergic to homework, school and enjoys lazing around or watching TV.
He imagines himself to be animals, space characters and sometimes Superheroes!

Calvin is surely Cuteness personified! :-)

We completed an year!

We celebrated our first year anniversary this September 13th.
Its a wonderful proud feeling, a feeling of accomplishment :-)

Celebrations started in the morning - Went to the Pomana Ranganatha Swamy temple, Did archana and had Free Food which as always tasted heavenly.

Next Stop was Croton Dam - A beautiful place just 6 miles from our house. Its the largest hewn stone structure in the world after the Pyramids of Egypt! Unbelievable!
The dam overlooks a beautiful park which is closed currently for construction purposes. Spent an hour or so, Clicked a few pictures and returned home.

Planned for a restaurant called Jaipore ,but later found out that they don't serve buffets on Saturday night :-(
So, we canceled the plan and had pizza in the night.
No regrets -- I absolutely love the PIZZA's here!

Thanks to Hubby Dearest for making this happen and a wonderful day. May the happiness roll on for many more years to come.

Mood : Happy and humming Joteyali Jote Joteyali
