Hey guys! Are you looking for the easiest way to remove hair before your next big meet? :banana: Wookiee, do I have a solution for you! Just come pay a visit to Elaine-iaK, here in Georgia, and I will get you in on a pass to our community pool. No razors, no Nair, no nothin'. All you need to do is swim in our pool and the hair removal will be done for you, pain-free! :agree: Just make sure to wear a cap, if you plan on keeping the hair on your head. :afraid:
This past week, tapering for St. Nick's, I swam exclusively at our pool, rather than commuting an hour roundtrip to train with my coach. And, during this past week, I lost all of the hair on my arms, half of my eyebrow hair (some broke off, other hairs turned white at the tips:censor:), and the hair in front of my ears that sticks out of my cap turned brown with white ends. (I have black hair, normally!) My Speedo Endurance has held up :bow:, but the stitching is starting to come out. Meanwhile, I have watched one of the noodler's suit turn from navy blue to light gray.
Needless to say, our chlorine and other chemical levels have gone way out of wack while our maintenance guy has been :bed:. But, the pool maintenance company guys heard allll about it, when I saw them today. :D
So, while they are trying to correct the problem, come on down to Georgia for the easiest hair removal ever! And, don't worry about clogging the drains, Wookiee; it will give our maintenance guy something to do. :bolt:
Elaine,
Regarding your swimming pool. I believe you are experiencing a very mild chemical burn. Please stay out of the pool. Especially since the pool water is destroying those old noodlers swimsuits.

Keep documenting everything. I am surprised your HOA is not concerned about liability. If they were they would keep everyone out of the pool as an abundance of caution. Multiple complaints from different persons is cause for concern.
If your HOA is doing its job properly there should be logs/records of the daily/weekly testing of the pool water. If they say there is not an issue with the water quality, then question their pool water knowledge. Insist on that 3rd party to test the pool water at the expense of the HOA. It would be less expensive than medical bills for chemical burns.

Happy Holidays,

Hey Bill,
Thanks for the links and suggestions!
I stopped swimming at our pool after seeing the water test results. Since then, I have been swimming exclusively at another pool, but monitoring ours. The pool guys have still done nothing; the air still smells of chemicals and the water still has that bad taste. (I splash a little water into my mouth and spit it out, to see if there has been a change.)
I know they have done nothing, because if they had adjusted the chemicals, the water would have turned green at first, before settling into the normal color.
I tried contacting the health department today, but they are closed for :carolers:. I will try again on Wednesday!
Meanwhile, I completely agree with you! You would think the HOA would take physical evidence they have seen into consideration, rather than solely trusting the pool company. And, they should know something is seriously wrong if even I won't go in the pool! After all, I use it more than anybody and they know how passionate I am about swimming.
Last Saturday, when I spoke with the HOA manager, I insisted they have another company come out and test the water. Whether they do or not remains to be seen, which is why I'm not going to wait to contact the health department!
