Long Summer

I originally started this blog to just keep things separate from my other two blogs (Gabbin-bout-Grub) and The Bachelor Pad). So I don’t write here often, but this summer has been long. Kids would probably love to have a long summer. But, when adults say something is long, that is never a good sign.

First, before we go on our vacation we have been having trouble with our neighbors kid a.k.a. Satan JR. He seems to think it is fun for him and his friends to throw their liquor bottles in our pool. Well I think it would be fun to put my fist in his nose, but doesn’t mean I should do it. So we spent MONEY to put a big fence on the neighbor’s side of the pool. We get back from vacation, ready to enjoy the privacy of our pool and we have a leak in our pool filter. Call a pool guy to fix it, he makes it worse and tells us we need to get a whole new filter and pump. Luckily he never charged us for his visit of making matters worse, because he couldn’t fix anything. But we had to spend more MONEY for a pump and filter. So after waiting two weeks for our new pool parts we had to spend more MONEY on chemicals because our pool was so green from not having the filter running for two weeks. So we get our pool up and running in time for one of the hottest days of the year, when our AC unit breaks down. Guess what? We have to spend more MONEY to get that replaced.
So not only is a long summer not a good thing, but it also means you have to spend a lot of MONEY. Hopefully we won’t be in for a long winter.
