THE POOL IS FREEZING


I knew that the pool would be cold during this time of year. I really found out the other day when I came home from work. The huge storm we had a few weeks back blew one of our brush bags into the pool. I found it two days later when Nick was working late. I tried to get it out with a rake and by pulling it up. BUT, since it was FULL of water, the bag kept ripping and it was too hard to lift out. So...I had to go get some shorts on an GET INTO THE FREEZING COLD POOL TO LIFT THE BAG OUT! I had to hop right into a hot shower!!!

My "Black Friday" Excitement

Nick & I did most of our Christmas shopping during the WEE hours of the morning on Black Friday. This Christmas we were very on top of our shopping and decorating!!! Lucky for me, in addition to getting our gifts purchased, I also got two unexpected surprises!

My Starbucks cup! They cost upwards of $75 on e-bay, but this one was just sitting at the Target Starbucks for a mere $13!



My $10 label maker! Although it tok 8 AAA batteries, I did save $30 on it :0)
