Breakthrough

Guess who finally figured out how to breathe right while swimming? (Yes, I know, four-year-olds master this. But I wasn't taught it. Four, forty-four, what's the difference?) Trick for me turned out to be not expelling at all until my face is nearly out of the water, pushing it out in one quick burst, and then I can take air back in. I was having serious trouble with all other methods. Yay me!
