Re: *SSM*

  • The awesome redneck kind that comes in a box, lol!  I relented and let DH buy it last year, but he didn't like the way the yard was so he took it down to prep the area better for this year.

    I hate it and love it at the same time.  

  • haha, now I want one.

    How much does one of those fancy pools cost?

  • I think it was like $250 at walmart?  Then probably another $100 in chemicals, but we still have those leftover and probably won't have to buy much this year.

    I made DH use his fun money to buy it, so I'm not totally sure.

  • I dont' think they are too bad at all. They get the job done for a fraction of the cost.

  • I know, b/c at the end of the day when I am sweaty and hot from yard work, it feels amazing to hop into it.

     

  • Oh I think it would be amazing.  I want a pool so badly.

    Are the sides pretty structurally sound? My fear is that I'd be blissfully floating around and then the side would fall down and I would end of on America's Funniest Home Videos.

  • My sister had one last year and it worked really great, she had to take it down though because of city ordinance. I thought it was pretty 'sound'.

    Yes it's very sturdy.  And if my fatass can lay around on a raft in it, you're fine!

    My siggy pic is Sadie on my raft from last summer, even she loved it!

  • I was trying to convince DH to get one this summer because I am sure I will find it to be heaven on hot days.  He said no because he didn't want to take care of it and he won't allow me to touch the chemicals.

  • Our neighbors just sent up one just like that for their kids.  I've been eyeballing it and trying to form a plan to sneak into it.

  • Shelley- tell your DH pools aren't that hard to take care of. I pop a few chlorine tabs in everyday and vacuum once a week maybe. Tell him your will be so uncomfortable this summer being pregnant that you NEED one.

    I tried that.  He's working on getting the hot tub down around 72 today so I can use that instead.  He said it would be easier for him to take care of just the hot tub then the hot tub and a pool.
