Ditto ditto ditto!

I was a sickly child with a huge number of allergies, asthma, skinny, and weak. I missed lots of school being sick all the time. I hated gym, did everything to avoid it. I was a straight-A student, bookish and nerdy, who felt clumsy, awkward, and couldn't hit a ball if it beaned me in the head. I would love to be "fast" at whatever, too, but these days I'm just happy to be out there doing more than 98% of 55-year old women!
