Today may be a shopping day. JoAnn's is having a sale. And there's one over near a furniture shop I've wanted to wander through. This is in Ballard, a neighborhood north of downtown. There's an LA Fitness there so I could do my swim there but I think I'll go back to my regular place south of here. But, there's a traffic bottleneck and leaving here for Ballard much before 10:00 would not be smart. So, West Seattle first. Plus I'm curious to see if they fixed the pool temperature. I'm going to take a second suit and if the pool is too hot, I'm going to get out, dry off and go to the Ballard pool and just join the traffic.
Oh I just realized I could call and ask if the pool was fixed. I did and the guy I talked to was really nice but didn't know shit. But, the pool is open so probably it's fixed. He did say that there was no note in my account that I had reported it. Sooo note to me. Next time I have an issue, be sure and have them put it in my account. On the up side, he checked my account by the caller id instead of asking me a bunch of questions. The staff checks the pool chemicals but otherwise, best I can tell, never even looks to see what's going on in there. Maybe they check before closing to clean up any drowned bodies...
I left the air conditioner off last night and it was plenty cool enough to sleep. Nice. Just now (7:30) it feels too hot here in the bedroom so I may turn it on before I go swimming to cool down the place so I can have the door open again tonight. Of course, having a hot furry cat snuggling in my lap is probably fighting any cool.
Sorry, Zoey, but it's time to get up and get going.

Saving big bucks
Aug. 6th, 2015 12:55 pmThe pool was, indeed fine and dandy. The spa, however, was completely shut down so I suspect that the spa was the problem and, in fact, yesterday parts of the pool felt as hot as the spa. I swam the first 30 minutes by myself. But, by the time I was done, it was full. Two people in each lane. First time I've seen that.
I headed up to Ballard and went to JoAnn's for the sale. And bought nothing. I did sit down and look through the pattern books just like the olden days. Kind of fun except the pattern books were all for summer. I'm over summer already. They had my bear stuffing on sale but I'm pretty much stuffed with stuffing right now and don't really have a place to put any more. So I left buying nothing.
Then on to the furniture store which is... gone. They had two stores and now they have one. Way south of Ballard. Oh well. I hate furniture shopping. Furniture sales people are like car sales people. Plus, I don't want to spend the month right now anyway. I'll get down to that other store one of these days.
Today, however, I just came home. I thought about stopping for lunch but then remembered I had good lunch stuff here and it was getting hot out so home and cool is me right now.
