Thank you  girls  for your  beautiful cards ..

OK now on to my HOT tub issue ..  I  am not  sure how this all happened  BUT hubby  winterized our Hot tub when he was home.   We even  stopped in  at a local hot  tub dealer to see what  we needed to  do  since this was the very 1st time  we actually  drained the  hot tub  for the winter ..  ( Note:  keep in mind  this was the  1st time ) Well the Hot tub dealer  ( Not a Sundance dealer .. Which is  the company we got ours from )  told us to  drain  hot tub and  then  use a wet vac and  suck all the  water out of the lines  through the  jets  and  then add  antifreeze ..( Can you see where this is all leading )  Ok hubby said thats easy  enough  then he  did the hot tub  everything  was  fine,  Then Tuesday   evening hubby  called  from Baghdad  and  asks  me to actually  call Sundance  and see what kind of antifreeze  we were to use .. ( WHY  he didn’t think of this when he  was  doing it I have no clue) .. I am sure it was the Holy  spirit  talking to him  even though it  was  alittle  late  for HIM  to  do  it since  we thought  we had  done it  already .. Well Sundance   said we  need to use NO toxic  antifreeze  (  you know the   pink stuff  for  RV’s , pools  etc…This stuff is actually  cheaper than  reg antifreeze 3.99 a gallon I got 4 for the flushing   )  well as  you  can guess  Hubby used  car antifreeze ..  soooooo  This was  a BAD  situation   since the  antifreeze  that was in there HAD to come out  due to hurting the   jet lines and  pipes.  Then the next thing was  we couldn’t  just let it  drain into our back yard  since it was Toxic  and   could kill Bowzer  and what ever else it came in contact with …  SOOO  what  are we going to do .. I  knew I had NO clue what to do  so Rich talked to  me about the  procedure and what to do exactly ..  Wet_vac 1st we had to  use the wet vac  and suck out  every  drop of the antifreeze  that was in there  and then   being very careful  not to spill any  and then  transfer it  from wet vac to a  proper container  for  disposal Antifreeze_2 .  Ok  BUT the fun was just  starting  cause  then we had to  flush out all the jet lines  with the  correct  antifreeze   at least 3 times . That meant  adding the  pink stuff  by  a Turkey baster  into  each Jet   line  until filled  and then  sucking out  again with the wet vac 3or more  times .So  the flushing begins ..  Man those  jet lines  were either  super long OR my  turkey baster was  really  small cause it  seemed like it took   forever .. Flushing_the_hot_tub   My lovely mom  actually  got inside the hot tub  and  did  the  floor jets  and I did the  sides    Actually  now thats it is done  It wasn’t  really   to bad Just time  consuming  and  of  course I was a nervous wreck. But  by the  2nd  flushing   Me and my mom were pros  we  even laughed  about  doing it as a business .. ( Go figure ) We are just Praising God  for Richard  listening   and all  is fine  and the  Hot tub is officially  winterized ….Big Thank you  to my mommy  for her help and  her  encouraging  conversation   while  passing the time  flushing ..

Until later .. Happy Stampin!!
