The pool is being a biotch. Got it up (would have been the third summer) and the bottom was like Swiss cheese. Tiny pinholes. :(
Ran out and bought another (without checking size of first one) and as we're putting it up, it's hanging over the tarp. 18 feet instead of 16.
Can I cry now?!?!?
I truly am sick of this bs

You are absolutely allowed to cry, Tracy :(

93* in Katie's bedroom and she won't let me put her ac unit in her window. I cooled her room down a little with the window fan last night, but she made me take that out of her window too. Frustrated with trying to balance her wants with her health.

That must be difficult Bov. I don't envy you either, you must worry terrible about her in this heat!

Well, the 18 foot pool is staying up. Should last this summer and next and then I want no bigger than a 14 foot. Just looks too big for my yard.

Tomorrow is flower day and a picnic here with my mom. :) Pool should finish filling, sometime tomorrow.

I hope you all are having fun!

That is pretty big, Tracy, but enjoy it while you have it!

Yep, gonna need bail money if I can't settle this ac thing with Katie. Once again I was using the window fan to bring the temp down some, and a hissy fit ensued when she smelled the smoke from a neighbor's fire pit. Came in my room and exploded again because I have my ac on. Tomorrow that unit is going in her window...let her beech since she's gonna beech no matter what I do :facepalm:

Ending on a good note...one of the fellas from the vape shop just called, he's pretty sure he sold my car for me. The buyer should be in touch some time this weekend :banana:

I guess old Katie is gonna beech regardless....Congrats on the sell !!

Got some heavy rain hitting the roof.....Last I saw TS Bonnie was gonna come in somewhere in the Charleston area...calling for heavy rain....30 MPH sustained and gusts too 50MPH...That is at the beach house...Bonnie is forecast to ride right along the coast line....As long as there are no tornadoes all should be fine...

I just checked the weather and that dang Bonnie is gonna be here until at least Thursday......It's been raining since I last posted.....Hoping now that flooding along with tornadoes aren't an issue....The low pressure associated with such storms makes my ears uncomfortable and they pop often.....adds sinus pressure and makes me feel sluggish....Looks like it's gonna be a slow and difficult week....

I gotta hit RTS before the sale ends.....One thing about RTS....last sale about 2/3 the sheet I needed wasn't included....not sure this time and it's my regular stuff so either way I'm ordering up.....

Went into the Wally's last night and grabbed some "prime" ribeyes.....That was a big improvement over "choice"....I will be back......After the Harvoni treatments I weighed 228.....210 today and shooting for the 180s....

So I'm in Lowes at the beach for silicone and some flux brushes for the silicone....had to emergency patch a couple three spots on the storage building prior to all this rain....I put the silicone on and then brush it "in" for better contact....Cutting back from plumbing I walk past the fridges....A Samsung has a huge version of a cell phone on the door....I got a Sammy S3 and noticed it looked much like the features I see on my phone....dang if you can't call it from the grocery and it shows the interior of the fridge....The was another fridge with a Keurig built into the water and ice thru the door thingy....I thought that was nice but if the Keurig or the big azz cell phone dies....well....let's just say I'd prefer a long lasting fridge like they used to make back i the day....

Like the doofus I am, I didn't think about Memorial Day sales a few days ago when I ordered nic from RTS. Today brought a 15% off coupon code for RTS in my email :rolleyes:

Well darn, Bov. I am a doofus for not mentioning that they would have one. Randy always has a sale at Memorial Day. I would have been very surprised if he had not.

I have been watching sales like a hawk. I wanted to pick up just a few more mods to play it safe. I have plenty but, some are older style and would not run these ceramic coils. I think that I am all set now though :)

Good morning, all.

Raining here as well. Yep, Charleston is getting soaked. Son and GS are in Charlotte at the races. They are staying in a hotel with rooftop pool. Son sent me a video of GS shivering in the rooftop pool yesterday. Pretty sure it is cool up that way lol

Got to get up and get something done today. Hoping you all have a good one. :)

Morning folks :)

It's ok Salem, I would have waited for the holiday weekend if I had bothered to look at my calendar and realized it was Memorial Day weekend :blush:

And....she nixed the ac unit install again. As soon as my feet hit the floor she was saying don't do that, I want you working in the yard in this record breaking heat and humidity. Air quality combined with the heat index has us under warnings to do as little as possible outside again today.

I think I got my Loranns CCI from Amazon the last time I ordered some other stuff from there. Glad you found some on ebay, Dee.

No more arguing about it, I put Katie's ac in. Once it was in the window she seemed happy about it. Put her favorite frilly summer lace curtains up, and then weeded the big flower bed that she wanted done. If I live to be 83 I'm sure I'll be every bit as ornery as she is :laugh:

Remembering those brave soldiers who never returned home......I pray there will never be another war..........

Yesterday I saw a mechanic light I liked so I dug it up on the Bay and it's on the way.....Neiko, re-chargeable, lithium ion, led.....What's not to love about that????????? Then I quit procrastinating and ordered a black, IPV D3....Yeah I gotta go make a deposit before the cell and tv bills come due............
