Fishy Friday?

Alright, it’s the only title I could think of. LOL. I picked up these crazy cute goggled for the kids at Big Lots, and my daughter loved them. And how cute is that, with the colors matching her bathing suit?! *love*

To pool or not to pool

That is the question around these parts daily. Most of the time the chips fall on the side of “to pool”.

Every day, pretty much as soon as she gets up, my daughter is asking if we can go swimming. Which I’m fine with, just not at 8 in the morning. Let a girl get some caffeine on board first. But typically I eventually relent, and at least a couple hours of our day is spent out by the pool. Being that we’re in Florida, our pool is directly behind the house and screened in. This is insanely convenient because it drastically reduces the high volume of bugs we would otherwise have joining us in the pool. The downside to this, though, is that the pool gets shaded by the house for a good portion of the afternoon, and thus remains cooler than I would personally like it to be. This week, the water temp has been holding steady at 84 degrees. That doesn’t sound particularly cold, but trust me, when you first jump in, it sure feels cold.

Today hubby will be manning the pool while I have my Thirty-One Out with the Old, In with the New Sale. A couple of my friends will be bringing their kids along to swim, as well. So today the answer is definitely “to pool”, at least for everyone but me.
