A Pool is coming....just not at my address!

Well....Let me start by saying congrats to my neighbor for starting their backyard Pool Yesterday. Now, let me say....I think they suck on the highest level. Juvenile...Yes. Hey, I am human after all. Since moving to Florida I have a list of a few things I truly would like to own. So far, I am blessed to say I have crossed off 1 of them. The Pool however is a deep seated desire. I can see myself now in my backyard screened in Haven with a Built in fountain & Hot tub after a stressful day at work....sipping a yummy frozen island drink of some sort....ahhhhh. As the reality of the cost hits me in the eye I snap out of it. True, I went to a local Pool company with excellent ratings last month & had them "work" the figures for my dream package as I call it. Surprisingly, it was less than I figured....why then didn't I sign & get the sucker financed to doomsday? Why....becuase I am a "What If" girl.....what if I go through this financing & then 10 different emergencies come up at one time & I am upset that I tied the money up in a luxury want. I am still kicking myself.....why couldn't I just sign! Hmmmm.....now to put a cherry on my Sundae....a truck pulls up at my neighbors & you got it....starts building a &^%* Pool right accross the street. Sure, it isn't their fault I wouldn't sign but Hey...I want to blame someone here and it sure as heck isn't going to be me. That my Friend would be too much like right!

Maybe you can just enjoy the neighbors at no expense to you! You know, when they vacation, volunteer to watch their house and you can play in their pool!! Happy Thursday Girl!
