Dead Pool
Thursday, March 15, 2007

Today is my last day with Bob. Woohoo! He really is a good kid....I'm just ready to be done. I don't think he's feeling well, so he has slept most of the day, which has given me time to pack up his toys, stroller, sippy cups, etc, and have them ready for when his daddy comes to get him. He did have a little inflatable pool here that his mom brought over last summer, but I'm an idiot and I threw it away. I let it get all nasty and moldy in the yard 'cause I was too lazy to clean it out. One day when DH and I were cleaning out the garage, I just chucked it in the garbage because I didn't want to deal with it. In my defense, we don't have a garden hose, so it would've been a pain in the rear to wash out. Whenever we used it, I filled it up with a bucket. Fun. I feel bad that I let it get ruined, so I told Bob's mom I'd buy a new one.....which stinks, because we really don't have a spare $20-$30 lying around to spend on something like that. Plus, I know full well that if the pool would've been left at Bob's house it would've been allowed to rot and get ruined....and would probably still be outside, along with the other weather-beaten toys in their front yard. I wish I would've just taken good care of it.

I plan to use what I've been given when Bailey is a newborn but then most likely we will switch over to the Johnson and Johnson stuff that we have gotten numerous gifts sets of! Although I think I am supposed to be boycotting that company... oops...
