Participant[quote=flu][quote=walterwhite]I’m taking swimming lessons. In my yard from my kid. They were howling w laughter at mh feeble kicking this weekend. howling. I’m gonna swim by the end of summer but never as fast as that damn swim team adolescent boy.
I can kind of swim but my kid described it as more temporarily avoiding sinking.
I’m thinking we should open a swim school. Maybe deduct the pool?[/quote]
You wouldn’t be the first person… There’s someone that lives in C.V. and has a pretty big pool. He “rents” it to a swim instructor….[/quote]
Back in the good ol days (says the cranky old woman) the Red Cross had back-yard-swim lessons. My mom was a certified teacher and our pool was used for lessons. Various moms in the neighborhood would get certified – then teach the neighborhood kids. They had different levels: beginner, advanced begginer, intermediate, lifeguard training…
I figure this program was killed for liability / insurance reasons.

ParticipantIf you use bleach and/or a grout sealer when you’re done make sure you ventilate really well.
I’m convinced that bleach fumes kill brain cells. (I have relatives addicted to bleach as my data points… just like in “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” – they use bleach for ALL cleaning and even put a drop of bleach in water and drink it to cure illness… and the effects can be seen. π )
The tile/grout sealer is also pretty volatile till it evaporates – so make sure you have windows wide open and fans going.

Participant[quote=sdmove]Thanks UCGal. Not sure why when I try to paste the link I trigger the spam bot![/quote]
It should trigger the captcha thing – you enter the code then it accepts it.
You can also ask Rich to add you to a “regular poster” list. Try sending him a PM (left menu bar has a Messages area.)

ParticipantHere’s the link:
http://www.redfin.com/CA/San-Diego/13785-Via-Cima-Bella-92129/home/4760780You’re not kidding about the yo-yo pending/active status.
I think it must be because the basketball hoop and the pattern on the garage door, in combo with the 2 windows, make it look like a jack-o-lantern.
