This morning I was thinking about all the summer held for us. This was our first summer in our apartment; adjusting to downsizing and enjoying the benefit of a pool! I have so many fond memories of the pool! The pool started out like a frat party environment; we ended up meeting what we call our "skittles" friends... these were the young men who had a very potty mouth, that when I asked to stop using the f-word.. they complied and started replacing it with skittles... this ended up sounding like this... I almost tripped over that skittles chair!... stop being such a skittles face! Needless to say it was always funny, but they were careful not to cuss around me and the kids. We ended up liking our skittles crew.
This summer was filled with hot days at a cool pool.... we enjoyed the quiet days when no one was there but us and the busy days where you couldn't find a chair, nights when Michael got to go with us, and all my days of reading good books while the kids swam. It was such a blessing to have the benefit of going to the pool for as long or short as we wanted and not thinking about having to pay to get in.... well, we are off to go swim some more! We still have a few more weeks of swimming to go!
