Swimming, I hate swimming. Not only am I bad at it but I get tremendous headaches, possibly because of the overly large amount of chlorine in the school pool.
I really hope that the snow isn't going to melt anytime soon because that way there's a chance we get skiing lessons instead of swimming.

Do you put your head under the water a lot? The water pressure used to give me earache and headaches, and swimming goggles put pressure around your eyes, too.
Probably not that, then. It was only if I was underwater for longer periods or swimming to a depth of a metre or more that I got a problem. Don't your eyes get irritated by the chlorine if you don't wear goggles?
Maybe try a pair, then, that might help. 
But skiing lessons? Nice!

I will try!
I very much hope so. I'm not a fan of skiing either but I'd take take that over swimming any day.

It's been over a week, and my cold has not yet abated. Considering going to a doctor at this point. Happy Monday to me!

Still tender after Friday's workout ... first time lifting since before Christmas and it shows.
But we're finally having proper winter here. -12 oC outside, some snow already in place and more predicted to come later this week

We're actually having some very nice weather today. Sunny and 51 oF. I'm enjoying sitting outside on my lunch break.

High five! Today was the first "proper" cold day of the winter. Quite a lot of snow and -6...-8 (around 19 F for you Amerifolk) throughout the day.

High five back!
I now have my hopes up for cross-country skiing the up-coming weekend.

The only way they could make up for such a major fuck-up.

Heart-warming story. I know of at least one American member of this forum who will love it
I'm not sure I would have been able to show the same patience and involvement if I were the man in seat 16C, though ...

Swimming is boring but excellent exercise. The odds of major injury are MUCH higher for skiing than swimming. But no risk of drowning. So it's got that going for it. Went skiing over the holiday break -- after two days of skiing, my legs and back hurt for about a week. Of course, I'm old.
