It wasn't as bad as I expected, though I am still waiting for the shoe to drop. In my case, it will be the leg cramps that hit me in the middle of the night.
We got to gym about 10:30 this morning and it took 15 minutes to sign up and get my card. I dropped Will off at the Little Gym and headed into the gym area. I spent half an hour on various machines working out my back, tummy, and arms. Then did a 45 minute program on a stepper/glider type thing.
Considering a 1/2 mile walk last Wednesday evening kept me up all night with leg cramps, I took it very easy. I used low weight counts and only did one set of reps on the machines. I kept the incline low and watched my blood pressure like a hawk.
After I finished working out and collected Will, we changed and played in the indoor pool for about 1/2 an hour.
He had a BLAST and wants to go back every day. He got to play with children for 1-1/2 hours and go swimming; what's not to love?
I was exhausted this afternoon and actually kept trying to take a nap, which Will was determined I would not be doing. But I had more energy this evening and felt happier with myself.
Now, lets just hope I'm up to it again tomorrow.

That is awesome! The fact that Will loved it so much may be your motivation to keep going. Way to go!
