Well, I managed for the second day in a row to not fall in the pool. Granted, I had a few close calls, but I didn't fall in. I have been smarter for the last 2 days also, I have been making sure my phone is not on my person while I am cleaning the pool. The way things have been going lately, I can guarantee you that if I had my phone on, I would most definitely have fallen into the pool.
You would think that by now I would have gotten the hang of cleaning the pool, I have been working on it for the last 2 weeks. Apparently I am pool cleaning deficient. Luckily, I do have a person who comes once a week to make sure the chemical levels are OK and back flush the filter. It is enough for me to have to skim and sweep the pool (and I fall in while doing that), I think if I try to take on the rest of the tasks, I will end up in the pool more than out of the pool. During the Summer time, that would not be a bad thing, but now, when the temps are not much over 70 (I know, you guys back East are going WHAT A WIMP!!!), the pool water is in the 50's, and the humidity is in the low teens, it really isn't much fun falling in the water with your clothes on.
I grew up in New York, so you would expect that cold water doesn't bother me, I suspect two reasons why I get cold easy. One - I am getting old, my blood is getting thin (great excuse) and Two - with the lower humidity, the water feels much colder... (non-scientific theory). I really think the "older" part is the main problem. When you are in your teens and early 20's, nothing much bothers you. Now, I get cold a whole lot easier. I still like a dip in the cold pool, Steve thinks I am crazy because I will swim in the cold water, but I want to be the one to call the shots when I get in the pool. I do not like the unexpected kerplump into the deep end of the pool fully clothed.
It was tempting today to just get into a bathing suit and go in the pool to better clean it. But, it was getting dark, and the air already had a distinctive nip to it (no, I am not being wimpy there...). Perhaps tomorrow afternoon, I will swim a bit and then clean the pool.
Anyway, I didn't want to cover any serious topics tonight, so thought I would update you on my ability to stay out of the pool. Tomorrow I will be more serious....maybe, depending on my mood...
Until tomorrow...
