In spite of it being 106* today, I would not have gotten into the pool if my 4 local grands hadn't come over for a swim. The pool temp jumped up to 80* but after getting on the first step and exclaiming something I can't spell (just a shocking sound because I am a wimp with chilly water) I knew I had to just dive in!! I did. I tell myself the grands won't remember Grammy was chubby, but hopefully they will remember I played Mar.co pol.o with them!!! When I was "it" I swam full speed into the side of the pool and no doubt broke my finger. What a goof. They are gone now and the solar drier has their suits and towels lined up drying. I love that sight.
And if you have been following this blog you may remember that Kirby should swim for therapy. He wouldn't even come outside while we swam; he really hates the pool. I'm just fine with the twice daily walks around the block and maybe the pool therapy will happen yet.
I got some good junk mail that I drooled over. Do you want to drool over the Smith & Hawken catalog too? Can you tell I'm still pining for a large outdoor dining table? I'll never have anything like the sets in this catalog but dreaming is fun.
Thanks Mary T for the blog over. I so appreciate your skills.

We had such a ball! I'm super sad about your finger though! And what's with the spelling of Marco Pollo?
I think adding the periods breaks up words that people might use in a search. I don't want searchers finding my blog. Somewhat private you know. You should see how big and swollen the old marco polo finger is today!!! Good show and tell.
Oh, got it! Sorry about your finger! You should have probably typed "sw.ol.len"...never know who's doing searches for swollen appendages! hee hee! ;)
