The way it went down:

She said she wants it operational
for a family cook out on the 4th…

I asked, of what month?

I got the “look”

I ordered a new pool, and more sand…

Sigh… I stood no chance

Maybe should have asked, 'What year?'

Hope it works out.

You're lucky she told you this early. Standard procedure would have been to inform you of the requirement on the 1st or 2nd.
