On Saturday as the temperature guage was reaching numbers we would rather not mention......... we decided to get a pool for the young ones. We looked, and looked and looked some more. Finally, we decided on this one! ( since it was marked way down, gotta love clearance sales) What a great way for the kids to spend the final weeks of their summer vacations staying cool. (Right) First day ...... purchase and set up. Second day.......... play 2x even though the water was so cold they thought they would die.
Day 3....... Wait all day for it the water to be a little warmer and the weather a bit less windy. Loving every minute.... laughing...... having a great time......... And what in the world goes wrong?!?!?!?!?!
.This is where the really big........ WRONG, comes into play. Really have no idea what in the world happend. I was watching from the deck above so I could see what everyone was doing and where they were. No one was holding on to the edge.....no one was climbing out.....no earthquake......NOTHING. Immediate flood. And so there began the waterworks and blame games. When I mention waterworks....... I am not referring to the flooding water that is now in my garage and down the street! :>
Of course, being a holiday there is absolutely no one you can contact about your fun adventure that might just ruin your day of fun. And ruin it it did........ I have once again relaimed the "meanest mom ever title". Not sure why exactly..... as I was not the one to break it.
I will call tomorrow and see what the "company's policy" will be.
And for the record.......let this be known....... this is called the "Kearl Factor!!!" Perhaps we should take my maiden name. :> Happy 4th our friends!!! (we hope you survived with no pool explosions!!!)

what? I thought I was the meanest mom? That looks like a total bummer...
Awwww, that bites the big one Jackie! Not as bad as your previous post though...All 6 in some sort of mouth appliance? I thought 4 was bad, Amanda is in an expander now and the boys won't be far behind. I can't think about all the money, just how nice all those perfect smiles will be!
I hope your pool got fixed, this summer's a killer!!
