Ging pub, as it in it is full of gingers?   Sounds like a scary place.

The filter on our new pool went south two days ago. It will be covered under warranty, but they do not have anything similar or better in house, locally. We will have to wait for a replacement to be shipped from the factory, WHICH HAS ALL ORDERS ON BACKORDER, FFS!!  Apparently, they have manufactured a huge number of these defective pumps and many of them are failing, nationwide.

I opened up the old one which had also quit (I kept it because I had hoped to be able to fix it and use it to vacuum the bottom of the pool, rather than throw it away - little did I know that I would NEED it as a main pump this week) and found a loose shaft on the impeller, which I could repair, myself.


That was Saturday.  Today, I am preparing to get very wet in our clean pool.

I'm glad that you were able to fix the old pump since it will probably take half the summer to get the new replacement one.

Are these Intex pumps?

Don't fear the gingers! Embrace your carrot-haired brothers and sisters! :grouphug:

First off is to go to bed.  I didn't make an early night of it like I planned.

* take care of monkeygirl because she had to try a new antibiotic for a nasty ear infection and she threw up the medicine while the ex was driving her to school. That's not a good sign, so now they're on their way to the doctors office. Unfortunately this means the ex will be home all day  because he refuses to let me mother her.

* Meeting the ex at the mediators office to go over the final result of the custody agreement. It's been drafted up so we need to read it over. Then it goes to lawyers.

* Sort through the kids old toys and donate what they're not using anymore.

* Have a nap because I've been up since 2:30am

Reset the clocks all day because the power keeps flickering off.

Still trees hanging on the lines everywhere down the road from me from this winter, now everytime the winds blows too hard or it rains the power keeps going out.

How much longer till the trees are removed and the power restored to normal?!  :o

Around here they don't fix it until it's "broke". Probably a couple more months of flickering here and there until they get crap somewhat straightened out.

Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen.  They are very good about that stuff here unless you live in one of the snobby town that will not let them cut the trees as they like
