The sun has been out for a few days now. I decide its time to start cleaning up the back yard….aka entertainment zone. As I look around, the amount of work is overwhelming….mowing, fertilizing, tree trimming, weed pulling, repairs, de-greening the pool, setting up the pool chai…UMMMM….
SOMETHING IS WRONG….
1 CHAIR…..2 CHAIRS…..3 CHAIRS…..
WHERE IS MY 4TH CHAIR???
Me: “BRRYYYY, do you know where my 4th lounge chair is?”
Bry: “Uhhh, no!”
Me: “KIIIIDDDSSSSS, do YOU know where my 4th lounge chair is?”
Kids: “Uhhh…..what chair? why? whattya mean? huh?”
I check the back yard. I check the back-back yard. I check the front yard. I check the garage. The shed…..The living room……. Google Earth shows it was here last summer:
I’m baffled…..the kids think a chair has literally been stolen. But whhyyyy would someone just take ONE chair….nah….that can’t be it.
WAIT A MINUTE……
Do YOU THINK?????
OHHHHH
EEEEMMMMMMMMMM
GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Betcha it’s at the bottom of the green pool!
AHHH HAAAA!!!
Well….that was exciting! Wonder what else we will find at the bottom of the pool. Good news is we decided it was time to clean the pool, so as I write this post, we are ALMOST able to see the 2nd step of the pool. So, by tomorrow, we JUST might be able to see the bottom.
*fingers crossed for no more treasures at the bottom*

Sissy, I too hope the chair is the onlly thing you find in the bottom of the pool. I remember last summer….We had lots of treasures underneath the green surface.

Sweet mother of pearl…I blame the media! They new the entire time where the chair was but all they want is drama! Thank goodness, no planters drowned as well!

We just cleaned/drained our pool this weekend! All we found were mosquito larvae. Your story was better!

Being a good friend, I’ll come over & sit in that chair to keep it from going back into the pool.
