Just tested - FC at 20.5. (I didn't add any chemicals last night)
Questions about levels, why I am getting skewed results, and quick thoughts, advice while I wait to receive one of your test kits

Now what? Just watch it today? 
I just looked at the process
I just looked at the process and it says to just test FC three or four times a day and make sure it stays at the correct level so that is what I'm going to do for today.

Yes. It's good to see the FC held well yesterday. I would think that if the water is crystal clear and the CC level is 0.5 or less, that it's time for you to do an Overnight Chlorine Loss Test starting this evening.

The water looks great at the moment. I'm going to go vacuum then I'm going to be gone the rest of the day have appointments. But I'll try to keep an eye on it when I'm home and I'll do that test tonight
Oh meant to ask.. my water level is pretty low, I really need to add some. I guess I just add some and then just keep checking the FC and adjust as necessary if it changes things. Correct?

Can i have a note to that effect? Like a permission slip? You know - just in case someone doubts the validity of the benefits of pool vacuuming on a very regular basis
Is there a forum where i could ask for suggestions for a vacuum head / brush that is totally curvy friendly? My pool has no straight anything...Can i have a note to that effect?

Can you see my logs? Tech guy said he would fix it because it wasn't sinking right before. But now when I go to pull math I don't see any logs except for the past couple days. So I'm just curious if you guys can see them I mean any of them really.
One more thing, those black spots at the bottom of my pool.. I know you said not to worry about them, but they've been bugging me for 2 years now and they have a really weird shape. I don't know how the pool could be chipped because we haven't really been in it much till now. Do you know of anybody anywhere near the vicinity of Greensboro High Point anywhere around there in North Carolina that could maybe come and look at it? My intuition is pretty good and it's telling me maybe get it checked. Don't tell me to go to my local pool store they couldn't even get the pool in the right way let alone fix something. We had to have someone else come finish it.
Sorry for the ramble but I just need some advice.

It stormed all day yesterday rained pretty hard, so today the FC is only at 8:00. So I will add as instructed. One bizarre question though, and I've never seen this, but we have like a family of dead baby frogs in the pool. I have to wait till Sam gets home to get them out, I don't do frogs.
What kind of effect do dead frogs have on pool water?

OH "Crud"! Mom is in the deep end and she's still alive. I don't know if I can handle this one.

She's still in there... Can I leave just that one frog in there until Sam gets home? Or is it imperative that I get it out now? She's alive she's twitching and trying to move her legs so there's potential danger in it for me, she could jump on me and then I'd have to go to the mental hospital
Oh no! Now she's swimming AROUND
