It is and my pool is a 1/3 normal saline pool so it takes a lot longer to get that pruning effect.
Do you find that the saline has an antiseptic quality that sea water does by helping with small cuts & scratches? I remember S Fla when I was diving weekly in the ocean & any "hole in my space suit" would heal within just a couple of days with zero infection.

Coulda been my bullet proof teenage body though.

Yes, higher osmolarity leads to cell crenation. It's why packing a decubitus ulcer with sugar or honey helps with healing. In my pool it's also provides the substrate for the hypochlorous loop I use to chlorinate and thereby sanitize it.

Morning, stupid protesters are blocking my way out. >:(
Every time I see your profile picture I think of Maude babe lol


Okay, i'm back. New chore...apple stuffed pancakes, huckleberry and homefries.

I can't shovel any of the snow outside, it's like 4" of spray on insulation everywhere.
Like artificial snow dust, pellets are all glued together, it sucks.

Morning. Hope everyone's feelin better and enjoying a nice Stoney-Sunday.


Ever play with a cat using one of those laser pointers? Most dogs like em too so I decided I'd get one to try on the snow. Those little cheap ones in the pet isle werent powerful enough so hubby gave me this.

This has great range especially at night on fresh fallen snow.

My dogs had so much fun and it helps burn off energy during these cold months so they dont get all fat, lol.

Now if I could just figure out a way to do the same

They told me to use a salt rinse on the belly button piercing. I went swimming in St. Vincent Gulf.

Never got infected, heald well. Too well as in "growing out". The scar tissue healed the piercing out similar to a splinter being rejected and pushed to the top.

That was a custom piece belly ring, 18k gold and genuine Coober Pedy opals hand selected for the sole purpose of that ring.:???:


A small fortune lost. Poof.

I'm sure someone would hold your beer if you allowed them to film you chasing that laser.:eyesmoke:
