You completely turn off the water heater and can still take a hot shower
Its been around 112-115 degrees outside and we are stuck with no pool. We were stalled a little waiting for our tile and paver decking, but now we are stuck! We hired a fence guy (friend of a friend- a fellow Dominican) and he only put in a few posts. It has almost been 3 weeks. We have started calling him daily, but he keeps giving us excuses. I know you will ask - no - we didn't pay him everything up front -we paid him 1/2 the $ to buy the supplies and get started. Unfortunately, it was a lot of $ because we need a huge fence - otherwise we could cut our losses and move on. Jacklyn's b-day was Sunday and we had to postpone her pool party until this weekend, but now we might have to postpone it another week or 2. UGGHHH! We are soo soooo close, but without the fence we will not pass inspection and can not put the pebble interior and fill the pool. Javier took this week off to finish the landscaping around the pool (thinking it would be done and he could cool off in the pool). The poor guy has been putting in plants, a river, garden and lots of other projects in this scorching heat. You can see him in the back with a pick digging the river.

i am so sorry about your pool. We've had temps in the low 100s and we're dying here. We feel so blessed to have a pool. I feel for ya, girl! The heat alone is hard enough to handle, even with a pool!
Oh, that must be pure torture for your kids (and you!) seeing that almost finished pool and not be able to enjoy it!
I am so sorry about your fence guy and I hope he does the right thing soon!
Found your blog by surfing ET adoption blogs. (We are w/Hope Adoption Agency,) I just stopped to comment because we are breaking ground on Tues. for our pool. Wish we had it now, as it is 106 and we're having thunderstorms here. OUr pool will look very similar to yours w/a rock fountain.

Oh, poor kiddo's. My brother has been keeping me informed of the weather in AZ and I'm sure glad I'm home. I hope that guy gets his act together and finishes the fence soon.
