#MicroblogMondays: Pools and Pools

Not sure what #MicroblogMondays is?Read the inaugural post which explains the idea and how you can participate too.


I started the day in a swimming pool in Ft. Myers, FL, enjoying swimming with Patrick and soaking in the hot tub.  I'm finishing the day in my uncle and aunt's home in Sarasota, waiting to see what will happen to my husband's basketball pools.  Villanova and UNC are tied, and the result determines whether he takes first or second in each of two pools worth several hundred dollars.  And Nova's buzzer-beater costs us around $400.  One the one hand, bite me Nova.  On the other hand, second is still worth some much-appreciated money.  And that was one hell of a game.

  1. The swimming pool sounds amazing... the basketball pools not so much! :) I can get into Superbowl Squares, but for some reason basketball just doesn't do it for me in any way shape or form. But relaxing in a pool and hot tub? SOLD.

  2. I'm going to guess that you wanted UNC? Cringing because I totally don't know basketball or the teams. Josh said something about Villanova last night, and I said, "what's that?" And he just stared at me.

    1. Yeah, if UNC had won, we would have gotten a lot more money. Turns out the loss cost us $600, not $400. We could have used that.
