What's on your Monday Menu?
Id be a cats water bowl. I toured another amazing apartment yesterday literally steps from Riverside Park . Im so frustrated - the app to apply wont open and my tooth hurts grrr.
Of course the toothache comes at the absolutely perfect time - my Mom broke her leg and is hospitalized and I havent visited and the paperwork stays overwhelming and Im about to live in a car !
My stress level is so high my hair is falling out ! So Ill be bald AND homeless in a few short weeks .
Food is good ( you cant eat much on a painful tooth ) - trader joes asian chicken salad with fresh miso dressing on top of their soy based one ( chicken went to the cat)
b- tea w booze ( tooth is the excuse ) arugula chicken couscous lemon salad w pickled lemons ( chicken went to the cat ) . Drinkable yogurt ( siggis)
L- Dishes buffet - bites of coconut chicken breast tenders salads , fish one cup super green soup from pret
d - chicken tortilla soup diluted w chicken broth about 2 cups from Panera Moroccan Lentil soup from pret diluted about one cup ( lots of leftovers as always )
Don't know where Ill put my two extra refrigerators in the new apartment but I know I need them to organize all the leftovers... 
Good Morning Queen JB and Menuers:
I am so sorry sleep didn't go your way. I was awake at 4:30 then 5 to the alarm to go run and I shut it off thinking I'm not running I will sleep till 6 to be woken up 10 minutes later to a dog that had to go. So, I am a tired girl this morning as well.
With all of the money and time I have put into the pool these last two weeks I came up a big failure. The last thing to do is rip apart the filter and give it a good clean. I been flocking and vacuuming to waste, and it looks great for about 6 hours then it slowly turns gray again. It has to be something growing in that filter. My brother said he will tear it down Wednesday. I hope whatever he does clears it up because I am tired. I also have the twins coming on Saturday and I would love if it was clean for that. This week should go fast but will be jam packed. I got class reunion Thursday and Friday. I just have to get dressed and go so no real prep for that. Saturday, I want to make a picnic lunch for the pool time with the girls, and Sunday is our family picnic. I breaded and fried chicken breast yesterday and froze them so those will just need baked off, I am going to make baked beans and pea salad. I also need to do a dessert. They love my triple layer brownies that are fairly easy so I should not be too overwhelmed. I am taking off Friday so hopefully it will give me time to do everything I need to do.

It's been a very long time since I've had a pool, but they used to be filled with very fine sand to do the filtering. The sand had to be replaced, eventually. Could that be it?

It is an earth filter, so it uses diatomaceous earth to do the filtering. If this was in my backyard It would have been taken care of, but I have to go there, then sometimes you have to circulate for 2 hours add something else circulate 2 more hours and shut it down for 5 hours. With it being at least a half hour to go do and come I am sometimes not motivated. If I ask Mom she doesn't understand. I asked her to shut the pull off in 2 hours last week. She shut it down as soon as I left and then forgot she shut it down and flipped the button again, so it circulated all night putting me 24 hours behind. Hence my answer to QOTD.

It has also been years since I had a pool. I did have the diatomaceous earth filter. I am almost my sure my husband ended up running it 24 hours a day during pool season. I know we never had any issues, except one morning when the water was green and we had to go and get a shock treatment for the pool. I remember the pool guy telling us that the earth filter was much better than sand. I think it also helped that I used to swim every day and that kept the water moving.
