Plain and Simple!!
So we have this pool and we live in Texas and we have Pecan and Oak trees. It has rained here every week, at least 2-3 days per week for what seems to be months.
Except yesterday! Yeah!! Hubby was off work, so we decided to tackle the pool!
An entire spring of what I call "leafbuds" are in the pool! For the pool to be functioning and not a swamp several things have to happen.
Leaves, et al have to go: squat, row row row with the skimmer, stand and discard leaves from skimmer. K?? you with me...now multiply that times 45 minutes.
Scrub the pool floor: think giant tub in a guys dorm and all you have is water and a toothbrush to clean it with! another 45 minutes.
Skim the water for more stuff: row row row with the skimmer, stand and discard. This I did for about another 20 minutes.
Shock the pool. Hubby does that.
Although I did all of this yesterday, its still not ready. There is more skimming to do. This is what I get for not starting on this earlier in the year. And it rained this morning.....ugh.
I'll be spending quality time with the skimmer again today! Thus I will not be running this morning, however I'll be able to swim soon!! yeah!!!
