I finally feel like a real human being again. In January I came down with a cold and it was rough. Three weeks of sneezing, coughing and trying to breath that was so severe. Hubby and I both down for the count. Then the cough lingered for two more weeks. Then I got the flu. Cold chills, fever and more trouble breathing with tons of aches and pains. I was in bed for two straight days without ever getting up to eat anything. Just so weak and so sick. Then little by little things started to get a little better. This stuff is really not for the faint of heart, it is so rough. Finally 3 months into all of this, I can breath, I don’t cough all that much and I don’t ache all over. I hope you all missed out on this stuff, it really is tough. So hopefully that will explain why I havn’t been around to visit like I normally would. I just haven’t been up to it. Now I am better and so onward and upward for sure. Can’t wait to catch up and see what everyone has been up to. Now up to date on the homefront – – –
All the plans are finally drawn and the pool is going in. We should be swimming in about 60 to 75 days. I can hardly wait.
We had a lot of different styles to choose from, but we chose this one. I love the big Bahama step as you enter. Perfect for a couple of chairs or for the grands to play in a really shallow area. We don’t swim laps, but we love to have a good game of ball, so the size and shape of this pool allows for plenty of room for a net and a good game to take place.
I also like how it ties into the patio and we have plenty of room for a table and chairs or a couple of chaise lounges.
It will be so fun to see our yard go from this – – – –
and this – – –
to this – –
I can hardly wait. The temps have already been in the 90’s so this is going to be such a great place to cool off when the really hot temps get here.
Now I need to go shopping for a swimming suit. They will start the dig in about 2 weeks and then onward and upward from there. I can’t wait.
