I’ll tell you what I want, what I really, really want

Jul 10, 2020

Remember that oldie by the Spice Girls? I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha)…

Sadly, I don’t have a clue what I really, really want.

I would like to have a pool in my backyard. Let’s face it you guys, no matter how much we want to go back like it was in July 2019, that isn’t going to happen for awhile. A pool would be something to DO. It’s too hot outside without a way to cool off. It just is.

Wish I had a pool

No pools or installs until after summer is over. I would get on the waiting list for early spring 2021 (because I don’t think by then our world will be back like before) — but I don’t know if I really, really want to be in this house in a year. I guess I could do a hot tub that I don’t heat until fall… we enjoyed that.

how about a hot tub?

But honestly, although we could use the hot tub year-round, we liked the pool more.

I wouldn’t mind having a nice camper or motorhome. But… my mini cooper won’t pull much more than a bicycle and I don’t want to drive a big ole’ motorhome farther than 50′. I spent more than 1/2 my life behind the wheel of a huge yellow tin can — I’m over that.

Even worse, the thought of riding with Perry in a car gives me hives… I can’t imagine riding with him in something bigger than an SUV. (Sorry Per.)

Perry is a scary driver

So… I still don’t have a clue what I want, what I really, really want. I guess I’ll work, (ha) and mow, (ha) and take care of ungrateful doggies, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha)…
