Headaches

I've had a headache for the past two days now. I've taken everything. I know it's sinuses. Last night I went to bed thinking I'd wake up and it would be gone.

I was wrong.

So now I'm battling it again. I'll have to break down and take something for allergies. I just have no desire to sleep right now.

The headache has won.

Anyway, we drained the pool yesterday. I had seriously been considering this anyway but I guess me, by myself, made the solid decision. Because we waited forever last year and didn't cover it, didn't winterize it...it was literally a swamp when we finally did put the cover on. So this Summer when the cover came off....

there was the swamp again.

I should have taken a picture but believe me, you didn't want to see it. I'm surprised there wasn't something dead in the bottom. Or worse, something living.

So anyway, it took all day yesterday to drain it, scrub it. Then of course it's taken forever to fill it. Going on a full day now and it is still not full. Joy.
But we have the solar cover on and in spite of the sub zero hose temps, the kids want to get in today. It's supposed to be 90 so I seriously wish they would leave the cover on today and get in tomorrow. Give it a chance to get somewhat warm...uh....at least non-freezing. It will be a week before I get in I'm sure.

You know me, my bath water could scald meat. I like my showers steamy. The cold does nothing for me. Even in 90 degree temps.

Ok, so I know this isn't the most interesting post. Sorry, it's the migraine.

It's now 10 am. Maggie just got up. Allison is up. (I can tell from the loud music that is coming from her room). Graham is asleep on the couch. Julianna is still upstairs asleep and Brook is still in bed. I guess I will feed my little one and then write a bit.

Sundays......ahhhhhhhh relaxing.
