Screw in the pool

No, not the good kind.

My pool cover dropped a 1" #8 self tapping, self drilling stainless steel crew into our above ground pool. First - I hate this fking pool. MrsWD wanted it, but she doesn't understand things like Ph or available chlorine or building a pool deck or basically anything about having a pool, but she wanted one and I would do anything for her so ...

I am so over the hours this fking thing takes out of my life. Over the course of the two years we've had it, between building a deck, and cleaning, and chemistry, and trying to get the water warm enough to actually use I've probably spend 10 hours working on it for every hour I (mostly reluctantly) spend in it. I don't like being wet and I don't like being cold so having a fking swimming pool in Ohio is basically a waste for me.
And now there is a fking screw lurking in the bottom, waiting to add to the time and money I waste on this damn thing as soon as someone steps on it and punches a hole in the liner.
First world problem, I know. I should just bulldoze it over the cliff and move on...
