Boy am I glad you are feeling so grateful..it balances out my lack of gratitude today! My power was out all night, so not much sleep was had, which as we all know, taints most everything:) But, I do so love that my pool bags are ready and hanging in anticipation of being used! (Well, I do have to purchase sunscreen still, but that is just a minor detail!!) I am so looking forward to the grocery store run for the pool snacks that will fill my cooler in the next few weeks! Only 1.5 weeks left until school is out, and we are free to swim daily!!!!
