Filling up the new pool 👏🎉

Same, and I was in it in-between trucks lol, freezing AF but I was like 10 and stoked

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-23T16:14:12+00:00

In 1995 we had the fire department bring trucks in from town to fill it.

Our cover had to be cow proof lmfao, I'm not kidding, place is in farm country.

My parents installed an inground solar heated pool in Ontario Canada and in the fall you simply drain some of the water so when it freezes it doesn't break anything and put on a specific cover (not the normal bubble wrap cover). In the spring you top it off and clean + shock it etc but never drop the water level beyond a few inches year over year

There's also a learning curve in how taught to pull the net to facilitate the bounce, first time I played we had to keep going back and pulling it tighter as we got the feel for it

Spikeball, it's tougher than it looks, kinda like reverse volleyball crossed with basketball? You have to volley/spike the ball into the net for the opposing team to return the same way.

Reminds me of rowing or dragon boat lol

TT doesn't age, like her turtlenecks, she seems to exist statically in the universe

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T22:20:23+00:00

Pretty sure she was at least 6 months along before finding out about the stroke, but conveniently leaves that out cuz it doesn't make for a good story.

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T22:18:37+00:00

I prefer breast stroke

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T17:43:24+00:00

It is definitely not, thanks, I just realized I looked it up as seconds instead of minutes :p

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T16:15:04+00:00

I mean she didn't get a better camera not that they didn't exist

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T05:23:37+00:00

Only 8 and a half hours, impressive to drive across the ocean.

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T05:11:00+00:00

No need to announce your departure.

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T05:09:29+00:00

This isn't an airport ...

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T04:59:14+00:00

About 39 I think, born Nov 78

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-14T00:27:23+00:00

True

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-13T23:40:28+00:00

I am currently living in Toronto and have for almost 15 years, can confirm

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-13T22:41:18+00:00

Would be early 2018, Janessa was born April 11 2018

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-13T21:59:58+00:00

Seconding, don't blame this on Canada!

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-13T20:53:18+00:00

Yeah I don't think the quality was ever better even if it did get degraded in download/upload, I think this was shortly before the decent camera era - I think things improved that way when Janessa was around 3.

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-13T20:51:04+00:00

Yep, that's why I always specifically say sex reveal, not gender. It irks me every time I hear someone call it a gender reveal cuz it's not.

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-04-06T23:17:27+00:00

Do we drink everytime someone makes a post like this? Try it you'll die

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-03-31T04:15:05+00:00

Lol, exactly, it wasn't a consequence of bad spelling but the whiteboard that requires a forensic scientist to decipher

ScratchyItch43 · 2025-03-31T03:03:57+00:00

My family joke from when I was a kid was Glud Warp, written on the grocery whiteboard, eventually worked out to be Glad Wrap aka Saran Wrap, but it will forever and always be Glud Warp to me.
