Hello! Today is my first post based on my life. Every morning I wake up to go to swim practice with my team, CFST. Yesterday, I had just finished swimming a meet. I always love going to meets. In my next post I will write about my experience in Cut Bank. It was NOT the ordinary. Anyway, when I arrived, our dry land coach made us do some stretches to warm up before going to the pool.
We swam our regular warm up, our coach trained us and then I exited the pool. On the way, I picked up Briceida and my ribbons from the meet yesterday. As usual, I watched Briceida swim her practice. Briceida swims her practice later than me. After that, our father picked us up from practice. As we were driving home, I noticed some fire trucks on the empty land right across from our house. When I looked closer, I saw fire fighters watering the grass.
Huh? I told my father and sister about it. My father said that most likely there was a fire when we were gone in the morning. My mother was working and my grandparents were the only ones inside the house. I was starting to worry because a fire never passed through our town. My father, Briceida, and I were greeted at the door by my grandparents. They were excited to see our ribbons from the meet in Cut Bank.
Briceida did well in the meet! She had a ninth place in the 25 butterfly (One lap of the pool). We also got our ribbons from Shelby, another meet from the past where we did not get our ribbons. In the 50 freestyle Briceida placed 10th and in the 25 butterfly she placed fifth. Of course, all of these events were in the Girls 8 & Under, because she is seven. I am in the 9-10 group, even though I am 11. My birthday, which lands on May 13, is after January 1st. What age you are depends on the age you were by January 1st. I was 10 by that time.
I do not think Cut Bank was my best meet. I added a lot of time, making me slower. I got first in the 50 butterfly, first in the 100 freestyle, and third in the 50 freestyle. In Shelby, I got first in the 50 butterfly, ninth in the 50 freestyle, third in the 100 freestyle, and 11th in the 50 backstroke.
I think that covers it for today. My mother came home from work, and my father left to work. Right now she is cooking dinner for us. Tonight I am going to watch the local news to see if there really was a fire where I thought it would be. Thank you for reading my posts! See ya later!
