Swimming Anyone?

I did something this morning that deserves some kind of reward.  Earlier this summer I bought a pool...ahh the "Summer Escape" from Walmart, an 8 ft quick set up ring pool fully equiped with a filter (the quick set up was a lie by the way).  Now lets not get carried away and think this was an 8 ft. deep pool.  It was 8 feet wide. Nothing but the best for my kiddos.  Well, that baby has been deflated and in the grass for some time.  To be honest, I think it had some west nile virus growing in it.  On a whim this morning, I decided it was time to clean the pool.  What an incredibly disgusting job but I had some friends to help me:  soft scrub, bleach, dawn and a high powered water extension nozzle for my hose.

All clean!

Don't feel too bad for me because I realized there are some great benefits from head to toe using my cleaning system.  Here they are:  no need to visit my hair dresser for a while as I now have unnaturally bleached highlights in my hair; no need for a mani/pedi as my hands and feet have so many layers off of them, they are looking mighty fine!.  The best news is that next year when it is 115 degrees here in Texas, all I have to do is pull out a really clean pool and do that quick set up!
