I joined the intex pool craze...
With 2 young boys, a wife working from home and no time or place to really go this summer, I decided to get one of those blue bubble type temporary pools, also called "storable pools". I guess I was late to the party because all the main retailers were sold out. So I headed to ebay and paid more then its probably worth but here I am, standing outside with the rain starting, watching this blue puddle of supposed fun grow up from the ground. I cant forget the fun included in leveling a spot in my sloped backyard, running electrical for a nearby gfci outlet, and then using harbor freight anti-fatigue mats to make a comfy foundation for this thing. Oh the joys of suburban fatherhood. On top of everything, with a mixup I'd rather not get into, I have a 2nd, identical intex pool arriving tomorrow. So that will be getting resold to some other sucker, uh, I mean good thoughtful parent.
