Don't be embarased at all! Siriously, lots of people don't know how to swim properly. In todays society it really isn't an empasised life skill. When is the last time a lake tried to swallow you in the middle of the street? My hubby, *He is going to glare hidiously at me for saying this * sinks like a rock in any water deeper than a toilet bowl lol. He LOVES the water though and manages not to drown himself. Me on the other hand, I spent a lot of time near oceans and rivers so I had to learn how to swim to keep from getting sucked into nasty currents. Funny thing is is that I have an aversion to water that rivals most cats lol. You should see me react to just rainwater .

Hey Debbie, don't be so hard on her for staring at the lifeguards. When I was younger, thats the only reason I ever went to the pool!
