My friend and neighbor, Judy Mulhern, has been encouraging me to take a water aerobics class with her.  To this point I’ve resisted.  The memory of the last time I took such a class lingers in my mind.  I was cocky and with good reason.  I swim half a mile three to five times a week.  As a result, I figured I was in pretty good physical shape, and, really, bouncing up and down in the pool isn’t all that different than swimming laps, right? 

I will probably take Judy up on her offer to attend the class, but this time I’m going to approach it with a more humble attitude, enjoy myself, and hopefully not need a defibrillator!
