JOPE Amazing human, skilled lover

My filter barely uses any wattage tuning on its standard setting. At night is the big one. My pool guy says my pool is medium size, but it’s not big. 15 x 25.

I live in Texas, I spend maybe half that on a monthly average.

That's what a friend who has a pool told me. No idea the truth

Seems like it would be difficult not to

Potentially your eternal soul if you give into temptation and use it on Sunday.

We just have a big jacuzzi spa instead. We like warm water

Croweater

You may need that in Utah but in Texas the water is always warm

AlphaCoug

I don’t have a pool now but I did growing up. With the exception of Sundays

You don't need a pool. Just swim in a pond near you.
