An exciting day for me.

I had a guy call the pool and get very angry at me because the pool's schedule wasn't coming up on the page. Turns out he wasn't on the city's website but some other one. And so he asks me why google gave him the wrong page. Seriously, why google didn't have the first page be the city's? Who knows. This goes on for a few minutes, and he's getting quite exasperated. He finally asks me to get on a computer to help him out and I tell him he can't, he gets upset and ask's why I don't have internet connection I tell him that I'm just a lifeguard, not a web tech. "Oh, well, what are your hours tomorrow? 11-3? okay, thanks. Bye!" I love some of the phone calls I get. I'll add that right under: "Sooo... whats with the weather?"

Then a guy came in asking about our facility for his son who has had a stroke. Now I know that shouldn't be very exciting, but I just got my Adapted Aquatics Instructor certificate. So I was happy to be able to help him out!

Lastly, a photographer came by looking to rent the pool for a shoot. After asking me if I was a good swimmer and getting my info to call for me to model some gear for them, he asks me how old I was. I guess I look like I need parental consent still! Cracked me up! Good Day!


And congrats to my dad for being smoke free for a year today! We're proud of you!

Halloween!

I had a very busy halloween. I've been sewing costume for almost the entire month, I made the majority (and difficulty) part of Robin's outfit, drafted and sewed the majority of John's outfit, made all of my outfit, and then I also made Watson a little gi to wear but since he is weird shapes it came right off so he ended up wearing a piece of black cloth around his neck. After those were done and ready to go the boys and I began cleaning until this fool came around:
He needed me to make him a 5 o'clock shadow since he can't quite procure one himself yet. Then I continued cleaning until we left for groceries, then decorated, then made bomb-ass punches and got all did up for our Pirates vs. Ninjas war!!!
Team Awesome:
And our first family portrait:
And then when Lilah decided she didn't want to be my Parrot Dog any longer, she took a ride on her daddy's stomach:
And all was awesome!
