pools

Intex Easy Set pools - just sos you know, I hates them. First we bought one that looks like the bladder of a whale (which right there, we should have known would be nothing but trouble):

IT'S A PARTY! SEE?

Well, we bought soil and we leveled the area so the Great Whale Bladder could be balanced. But, we're incompetent, so the Great Whale Bladder sagged ridiculously. But the kids didn't care. So then we drained the Great Whale Bladder and tried leveling again, with more success. Again we fill the Cursed Bladder. But hey, there's a hole in it! And the Bladder From Hell drains all over our yard overnight (piss on us). And then we can't find the hole in the Great Fucking Bladder (we tried, oh how we tried). And we are Spectacular Moronovitches and so had thrown away the box and receipt, etc.

So.

We go buy another, NOT a Bladder:


only, it's smaller than that. But anyway. So it's looking good and it's no bladder, right? Came with a pool cover and filter, etc.

And then this morning it's down about 5 inches.

A reasoned response doesn't include taking a knife to it, right?

RIGHT???

Yay! It's lovely to have one's own pool, isn't it? I don't blame you for getting worked up. Those things are hellish to set up. And they ain't cheap, either.

It is lovely. It's only 10' x 30", but it's perfect for my girls - they're so adorable and happy in it. You know when they're really expensive? When you have to buy two of them because you're a dork!:)

Expansive! You're expansive. "I'll take two - they're small!" ;-)
