HM Yellow Dress and My Pool
Last Updated on 2020-10-23 by Linda
Yep it is Thursday and A Labour of Fashion Day, so lets have fun with H&M shall we. Styling my fav H&M Yellow Dress while playing poolside. I took a break from work to show you around all the pool work we had to do.And it was a heck of a lot of work.
My Pool and the Liner
Just look at the craziness, not just a waterless, linerless pool but a sad looking yard feature.
See all those patches around my pool? Everyone represents a trench we had to dig four feet down. Through gravel and clay, around pipes and narrow spaces. And all that to save me a ton of money and get my pool back.
Repairs would have run about $20,000 and taken all summer. I ain’t got time for that my friend. This gal needed her pool so we got to work. And we did it in three weeks while still working full time. The muscles on this body ached, i may have wanted to cry but when it was done and they put the liner and water in last Thursday I was thrilled.
For about a month I led with a pile of dirt on my lower deck. My patio furniture remained tucked away and my floors in the house were filthy. And oops still need to be done because I wanted to enjoy the pool lol. I dug up my patio stones and then re-layed the same stones. Tedious back breaking work but again, I have my pool back to totally worth it.
If you ever need a pool repair give me a call. No I totally will not do the labour but I will walk you through it. I promise it is possible to fix it.
HM Yellow Dress and Converse
Well let’s get a few deets out there, Dress wasfound at H&M and the Converse, well mine are from the Outlet Store. Wearing my Posh Little K necklace and a linen cardi from Winners (aka TJ Maxx but Canadian version) . My yellow converse are a regular summer show with all my dresses.
As for all the fun yard accessories well, hoe, shovels wheelbarrow etc all from my friendly hardware stores.

Wow! That yellow is just perfect for summer and beach! Thank you for hosting the linkup!
You look stunning in that yellow dress. It’s the perfect color for summer. Pools look odd when they are empty, don’t they?
