The 2025 Trivial Drivel Thread

My dogs look at the pool and look like they're thinking about it, but won't go in. Not that I want their hair clogging up the pool, but they could use a quick bath. They smell like shit, a little chlorine won't kill them.

It took us a year to get our dog in the pool but after barking her brains out a few times and falling in she took to it. 

But yeah, yesterday I could see her dog hair on the water’s surface. I think our filter can handle her but I wouldn’t invite a bunch of dogs over for a swim.

So my god damn neighbor did remove several trees where now I can see the back of a house kind of diagonal to us (and it looks like shit). Granted it’s a distance away but I’m irritated. Texted my husband and he was like “well, maybe we should plant some trees on our side”. I was like “well, sure but first we probably want to replace around 3/4”’s of an acre of wood/wire fencing and then we can run irrigation out there—because baby trees need water—and then maybe in 10 years we’ll get our privacy back”.
