Pool Pity

Despite my last pool update, we have most definitely NOT been swimming our hearts out over here. It's been determined that there is a leak in the lining of the pool which lowers the water level to below the skimmer on a daily basis.  We called a man who can fix it, but he requires that the pool's chemicals be balanced for swimming.  Because of our leak, we're constantly adding water from our well to fill it (you need your pool's water level to be above the skimmer at all times for the filter system to work correctly) and thus we add more chemicals and we can't get them balanced because one chemical has to "sit" for 24 hours and in that time period all the water has leaked out.  YOU ARE KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW RIGHT?

And then last night one of the hose clamps snapped apart, again, for the third time, sending water shooting from the now unhinged hose and you guessed it, Clay and I are ready to deconstruct the pool and call it good.
