So its winter, and we cant swim at the springs or pools. my mother is always busy and won't take me to use just my monofin, but i really want to be in my tail! How can i have patience till april so i can swim in my tail and have that magical experience?

also, what can i do with my tail for now..? i've slept in it, played on the PS4 with it on xD but i need some more mermaid ideas :)

You don't need to get in the water to take some cook pics in your tail. Also, maybe you can still practise your dolphin kick and learn some apnea techniques before it gets warm enough to use your tail

I don't have a tail (yet!) but I have the same swimming problem. Our pool doesn't open until May! And seeing as how I'm planning on having my tail done by the end of March, that's still a month of waiting. 0-0 I don't know what to do with myself.

I've been doing apnea training, and loooots of foot strengthening exercises so I don't cramp up in a monofin. (I already have issues with foot cramps, so prevention is definitely worth an ounce of panic-n-cure later on.)

That sounds pretty genius! The issue with where I live is that even though it's BLAZING in the summer (Las Vegas, Nevada, so the heat gets extreme) the temperatures drop vastly at night. (Dang deserts.) So while it's hot enough that you want to swim, the water stays freeeezing all year long. I'm alright with a cold swim or two, but all year is just a little sad. :P

duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude i wanna be in the heat because then i would be allowed to go swimming :D if i can recommend something for you Lanier, I will recommend going to the springs for a full weekend, i mean like if theres one near you, then swim all day at a different one:D its really fun, i payed my mom 60 dollars for gas and she drove me and our family had a fun weekend while i entertained with my tail

Ooh, that's a cool idea! There's Lake Mead not too far from here, and I hear people sometimes swim in it. Luckily, we're moving in June or July, and we're fairly certain it's to Hampton, Virginia. (Which sounds swanky, but we'd be on the AF base. Considerably less swanky, I assure you.) So that'll be fantastic for swimming, and the Chesapeake pod looks pretty large!

We're originally from Tennessee, so swimming in the lakes there could be a possibility too over the summer. It's just all this waiting!

You may have to use a bathtub but DO NOT post any video or post picture in a non private spot. There are a lot of merverts that looks that stuff up. Pictures posted on Mernetwork can only be seen by registered users unless you post them in an album. I'm just overprotective of my mers.

I just usually wait until almost everyone is gone some place before taking a shower. I swear that when everyone is home, someone has to take a number two before I shower. It drives me up the wall. Why isn't there lock? That just really creepy. For the merverts, let me know if Gordon ever message you on Facebook. He the one I want to stop the most and I know how to convince his internet provider to cut access. I might as well call myself Papa Mer (kinda sound like Papa Smurf)

I've been on the internet since 1997. I don't know how to hack but I know how to locate perverts using basic search functions and old school tricks to run them off the internet. I'm kinda like Robin Hood of the Internet as my boss would call me.

Pressing Ctrl U on instagram after clicking on a picture allows you find the real file name. Depending on the person phone, sometimes it's the name the phone owner saved on their phone. It's also how you can save your own photos from your page.

I'll use the above trick to save a photo from the bad person and do an image search to find their main page. Trolls can't run from me on the internet.

I wouldn't recommend it Galaxy. You may damage your tail.

I love the idea of having Slim be our Pappa Mer!

Galaxy, an old trick of mine is to take a bath with a couple tablespoons of coconut oil in it. It makes everything feel slippy, and I feel more like I'm floating than like I'm stuck in an itty-bitty tub. You can also take wet towels to cover parts of you that stick out. Long-Leggy Me uses this trick a lot.

One day during a mer meetup, maybe a snes special as I still own the snes RPG Lufia 2. I almost traded but my brother put his foot down majorly.

Play a jumping game. When you fall to your death, slap the tail on the floor in frustration.
