Seriously woman?

Too bad, maybe next summer

No problem, as long as she’s willing to do the work … empty the pool, move it, and refill it.

You’re welcome to move it wherever you like, Honeybunch!

Hose to her face!!!

The pool has a leak. We will move it over there when we refill it.

The pool is for the KIDS, Honeybunch, not YOU. You can place it wherever you want tomorrow.

Who asked her?

You want it somewhere else now, so you move it yourself.

“Then you drag it over there!”

There seems to be a uniformity of opinion regarding Honeybunch’s suggestion!

Fine, move it. I’m going inside to watch baseball.

You’ve got a runing hose in your hand; Use it! (Then run..)

This looks familiar.

of course….

Or change the narrative and “accidently” spray her with water from the hose in your hand. The pool is instantly forgotten and you have a new “guess what happened?” story to share.

This is why I always have my wife pick the spot on the beach or the table at the restaurant etc…If I pick it’s “ over there would be better or why did you pick this spot, let’s move“It’s then I call her Lucy, because I m reminded of an episode of Lucy where she keeps making the group change their table in a restaurant.

Spray her with the hose and walk away.

She sounds like a police officer:" Pool over, there!".

And you know it won’t there, no move it over there, etc..

There’s ANOTHER pool in their backyard?

OMG! There’s my wife! That’s exactly something she would say.

Then you move it, Homelybish
