A Good Day to Float
Topic: People/Family stories
I took my mom to visit my dad this morning. He seems to be adjusting to his new environment pretty well now. He talked to us a little bit and didn't seem to be having any paranoia problems today. We took him to get his haircut, then back up to lunch. He gave me a sincere hug and kiss goodbye (he usually shows some aggrivation or whispers a paranoid thought into your ear when you tell him goodbye).....it was a good visit.

It's been a long hot day and we are about to go swimming as the sun goes down. The water in the pool has been just below 90 degrees, so it's a little warm. But for some reason, floating around in water has been really relaxing lately. Maybe I"ll do a study on lower blood pressure and anxiety relief through floating therapy. I'm so thankful for that pool...it's hard to get a good float going in the tub. ;)

Here is a cool website about an artist who Stacks Rocks for gardens or parties. And if you have the urge to stack, you can try Virtual Rock Stacking. I couldn't get the rocks to stay where I put them, but maybe you can figure that out.

You stack rocks, I'll go float....

Your visit to your dad today sounds so familiar to me. God sure did give you and your mom a special day with him. Remember and treasure it.

You say the pool is around 90 degrees, that's why we didn't put one in--I only like cool pools. My cousin in Tucson does this to cool his pool down.(He has a big chest freezer) He saves gallon jugs(milk or whatever--rinse them out real good) then puts water in them and freezes them. Then he throws 10 to 20 of them in the pool once the sun has set. Jump in and stir them around. It works! and they are reusable.
