Double Dip

There's good news and there's bad news. The good news is that the pool got filled today! The bad news is that it's -472º in there! That didn't stop everyone though! We had two brave girls go for a dip, albeit a very very quick one :)

Honey jumped in first and was scrambling her way back to the ladder before she'd even surfaced. Lovey took up space on the ladder for a good long while before grabbing her flutterboard and taking the plunge.
The cold water literally took her breath away. I wish I'd captured her expression as she came up out of the water. The shock was so evident as she gasped for air. Sweetie decided not to risk it and stayed dry. I forgot to put the thermometer in so the -472º is just an estimate :)



Sweetie claimed she wasn't feeling well at the bus stop this morning so she stayed home. The rest of the day she seemed fine but when she wouldn't eat Cocoa Puffs for breakfast, I thought it must be legit. I got suspicious when she asked if she could go shopping at Walmart though! Evidently it was the real thing, she just woke up with puke all over her bed, in her hair, on her nightie etc. After a quick bath & a change of bedding she's all tucked back in & hopefully will feel better in the morning.....
