What a nice idea!

We 4 mods are all still here. aylad is having issues with her liner and filter. Poconos and I have not yet opened our pools. It's been SO cold this month that I'm 2 weeks behind and don't even care! My goal each season is to get my pool open May 1. Not happening this year.

My Blue Diamond after several years of great service started leaking oil and I procrastinated, and it was buried under the snow, and, before I knew it, I had no time to get it repaired. Then I found that LeisureLiving was closing out Blue Diamonds and got a replacement for 2/3 the going price--about double the repair cost. So I got a new one.

Meanwhile I've been buried in 3 serious projects:
1) Getting my mom's house cleared, cleaned-up, repaired, painted and staged for sale (it sold even BEFORE it went on the market--Folks, LISTEN to your staging expert! The idea is not how YOU lived in the house, but for them to see how THEY can live in the house).
2) Meanwhile, we were well into a major, MAJOR remodelling of our house when Mom decided to move to independent living and selling the house.
3) Changing jobs, both myself and my better half. I'm 3 weeks into my new job and loving it! But it's a big change.

But I look forward EVERY year to that first swim! Sometimes, it takes a wet suit, but I always LOVE it!
