Parenting

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone. Our anniversary yesterday was remarkably uneventful, at least until last night when hundreds of our neighbors insisted on setting off hundreds of fireworks in our honor. Hubs got me a really amazing gift, but I'll have to tell you about it in a few weeks.

This is my 5 gallon hex tank.  In it are 7 phoenix rasboras (which are stunning, I need to somehow get a pic of them), 7 cherry shrimp, 1 Briggs snail, small piece of cedar driftwood I picked up at the lake up the road, pool sand , small piece of slate tile, and various plants, no idea what they are.  I’m in love with the tiny tank and now want tiny tanks to make mini worlds in!

Dear Hubs,

Here’s hoping your weekend kicks ass, guys.

Braden and I will be playing with these:

My daughters new friend, and another cage to clean for me:/  But that face, OMG how adorable?!?

Remember when I told you a little while ago that I had news about my Suburban Turmoil newspaper column? Well, today, my friends, I get to tell you all about it.

Well lemme tell ya.

It's SO bad, I read everything in my Reader (oh yes I did) and then kept going back yesterday over and over, looking to see if someone, anyone, had posted something new.
