    Shelley,

    I learned how to download photos off my phone! :) Here's the picture you sent me of your coral in jail.

    Are corals boys or girls or do we just call them "its"? Poor baby. Hope he/she/it makes it okay! :flowerforyou:

    Paula I have not been able to see it. It is loading really slowly. But I should try also. Not sure it is going to make it. I should have put it in jail earlier. :(

    So Thursday this rather rude unhappy person with short pink hair and lots of tattoos came into the court house. No idea why "he" was there. Did not care. I was polite and he was acting like he owned the place. Today I was getting ready to check on all of you and who do I see on the news? Yep, the rude person. He is "somebody". Still a rude SOB in my book. He had a name, Jeffree Star. Might have spelled that wrong. I can't believe he moved here to buy property to get rid of all the rude people. And says Wyoming has very friendly folks. Well we have one less now! I really don't care to ever see him again. I will try really hard to continue to be nice. But all bets are off if he is still here when I retire.

    Looks like he crashed and his car flipped yesterday:

    @PaulaKro notice how he had to mention the make of vehicle, so special. NOT. To me he is just a rude self absorbed person. Who can't drive in icy conditions. Should stay off the roads until he learns how. First rule, slow the heck down. Second rule, leave space between yourself and the person in front. Third rule, stay home if you don't need to be out. Fourth rule, Slow down earlier when preparing to stop. If you can't do this, go back to where you came from.

    There are a lot of million and billionaires moving into Wyoming. They want to get away from things. They bring those things with them. :s

    No change in the coral. Fingers crossed.

    My weight slipped past me last week. I snuck up on it and slapped it silly for 2 pounds. Now I have to keep going down. My mom is visiting. She forgot some of her meds. Trying to get ahold of her doctor to get more. My sister is not feeling well. Says she will look for them when she can. Lazy cow! And yes I mean that. She is not feeling well as usual. She does not take care of herself. I hate to say it but she is an inspiration to me of what not to do. Do not eat yourself into early diabetes. Do not crawl in bed and stay there, and miss showers. These things do not help us. I know most of us have been there at sometime. But we pull ourselves up and enjoy life.

    Lets get out there and move. Enjoy your walks. I have a young guy coming over to see my aquariums. So nice to be able to share my hobby with another person who loves the hobby.

    We are meeting Sara, Pete and Ronan at Lowe's to get the wood chips to spread around the yard in the many spots the wind has sent what was there over to the neighbors. I'm going to look for flowers. The plants I've gotten online aren't doing anything.

    Part of our fence bit the dust yesterday. We have a Fence Guy coming out this evening to have a look at it. The neighbor just sold the place next door...for a very NICE price, mind you...and wants the repair to look like the rest of the 15 year-old fence...hmmmm...that ain't gonna happen, sir. The entire fence needs to be replaced but that involves neighbors we've never talked to and neighbors we have no interaction with.

    Might go to the grocery store with Sara tomorrow...we'll see. So sad when that's the most exciting thing you're going to do on a Sunday!

    Shelley, hope your mom gets her meds. How old is your sister? Sounds crazy to me. Did you have a nice time with the young guy who came to look at your Water World?? Bet he was impressed...I know I am.

    Chris my sister is 2 years my junior. She is the baby of us kids. She did finally get them into the mail. After much complaining. But it is done. The young man comes tomorrow. Should be fun. He works at Pet Smart. And he is on the same fish site that I use.

    Chris you are right about the fence. We do not bother trying to get our neighbors to help. We do it ourselves. Then we don't have to consider their ideas. I hope you get nice neighbors. Would be great if she liked to walk. And going shopping with your daughter is exciting. I went with my mom this evening. I bet your shopping date will be more exciting. :D

    Did I mention my bike is coming this week? It is. So busy today. Made blueberry muffins for us all. And the young man Parker spent 2 hours talking aquariums with me. He was picking my brain. It was great but boy was I wore out. LOL I sent him home with lots of frozen fish food to try and filter media.

    Have a great Monday!

    Karen I had a nightmare about the bike last night. I had trouble getting it started. And the bike weighs close to 90 pounds. So it is really hard to move without it running. And then the handlebars fell off. When I finally got it to work it was dark. And of course I could not figure out the headlights! I was so glad when my alarm woke me and it was all just a dream. When it gets here I am going to take it out and get used to it before I ever put Libby in a basket on it.

    So the young man Parker came over yesterday. I felt like he was picking my brain for 2 hours straight. I explained carbon dosing to him. He is only 20 so will have to have a parent buy some vodka for that for him. But he only needs a 1/3 cup added to 16 ounces white vinegar. It was fun. I enjoyed teaching and talking with him about his future seahorses. Some day I may get some. I did laugh when he said he was just going to continue caring for a clownfish he bought on impulse until it dies of old age. I asked if he knew how long they could live. I know of two pairs that lived into their 40's. LOL

    @PaulaKro & @KAR1959 that is so bright. Love it. I love hot pink. I think Libby Lu would look great in her basket on that bike. I was looking at some really sparkling colors. And some heavy clear coats.

    Sara won the Elementary Co-Administrator of the Year for 2020-2021 for her Region!!!! We celebrated tonight! Usually it is a big, fancy dinner but this year it was virtual and rather strange. Even the folks in charge were out of sink because it had never been done this way before. Sara was stunning, tho. I am so proud of her. She is amazing! <3

    So there was pizza and cookies for dinner...yum!
