Just keep swimming....

Well, is everyone surviving the hot days of summer! Jeez, we are burning up down here in Texas... One thing for sure is me and my loveee are getting some great use out of our pool, I still dream of the day when we have an in-ground pool, and we WILL get there, I am thinking that is going to be our 10 year anniversary present to eachother - God-willing... I wanted to have Gary Hobbs come and play for me personally, but when I thought about it, that would just be one night but my pool would be forever... LOL... We did get the bigger pool this year and even though I complained like you would not believe about a ladder (my apologies to the salesclerk at Academy for Johnny and I scaring her with our heated debate), I wanted a big pool we could step into, well... I thought I won and that's what we got but apparently we bought the big pool that is actually almost 4 feet... Ya, I am pretty sure that my husband tricked me and I was NOT happy but when I managed to figure out how to get into it (please remember I DON"T like heights....) I love it because i can swim, okay so maybe it's only 6 feet or so but hey, its still a swim... LOL... of course I made my husband miserable til I was comfortable with it because, hello, I am 40 now and I could fall and break a hip trying to get out of that pool - and NO, I am not drama! Now I wish we had gotten the bigger one... but, alas, hopefully fingers crossed we will only have a couple more summers of the above ground pools before we get the real thing!!! That is because this momma has been learning how to get by on less so that we can start to save more.... That and the fact that we won't have any car payments after this year woop woop! It's so tempting to switch Noah to a public school and save that tuition money, but we love St. James and as long as he is happy there, we won't be moving anywhere... but that extra money sure would be nice! No, Noah is totally worth it!
