Back in the pool today and the water was luscious...

Redundant as that might seem to most of you; it is how it was…really!
Delightfully neutral in its temp, causing a velvety sensation encompassing me all over my rather plump and generous body, there was only one glitch in the whole incredible process and that was the fact that the water was actually warmer than the air! Not a problem you say! Oh I beg to differ with you…
The air was hovering around eighty-two and the tub, my pool, was at a more than a pleasant eighty-eight! And the problem was, I’m sure most have guessed by now… that since the air was cooler it felt frosty upon exiting the water.
And so my muscle spasms were in full force once again.
With me trying to be into full exercise mode I did have to call it all short due to that inconvenient problem, and only stayed in for about thirty-five to forty-five minutes in total, which isn’t too bad, I would say.

Other than that we had a few other temporary problems that I noticed before Hubby awoke. First was the air-conditioner condenser that is outside, it is on the same side of the house that our veggie garden is and I noticed that it was moving the hibiscus also on that side but up against the house. Oddly enough though the indoor part of the unit was not in its on mode and could not be heard; when Hubby did get up he took care of it by just resetting it by the on/off switch, too easy; why didn’t that occur to me?

The other was that digital TV contest that is on our local NBC station and my online form was screwed up and their was no selection, it was blank, for your date of birth and so it therefore would NOT allow me to enter the contest!

Later on the whole Facebook page would not come up and so I shut the computer down for about the fourth time and voila and both worked again!

There were three things that threw a wrench into the day but for the life of me and Hubby we can’t remember! They say whoever they are that when you forget that whatever it was you were trying to remember probably wasn’t that important after all and so don’t bother to worry about it; I will take that, OK!

We all know more times than not worrying is counterproductive and that we shouldn’t, but we can try to change things when we can.
That is a bit of a prayer, quite paraphrased, that people with addiction problems use, but even without any it rings useful and true.
It’s funny; I have never been in any addiction rehabs for anything but I used to quote that to my seniors when I taught different things like Acquacize and when I was co-president of our support group for arthritis and stuff like that! One of those lovely elders set me straight on the origins of that expression or prayer have you and that is the only reason why I know where it came from.

My other fun during my mornings is writing on my Facebook page to the news and weather people who on occasion ask provocative questions that I always have an opinion. I can hear you all laughing now!
Of course she does!
True I do that here too, don’t I?

On that continuing theme of redundancy I will bid you all a very good night and to all count those blessings and we will too!

An update: Hubby remembered what the third thing was, my bill pay online had not been credited from yesterday although it was for our Visa that was with our checking account at the same bank and so is our mortgage.
I called to see why it was not showing up when it always was instantaneous before, and get this: they said that they had to send a check to pay it; now I ask you: they had to send a check to themselves? What’s with that?

Which way will the war go?
