Got mine done, too.  Wiped down everything in the tanks thoroughly, squeezed every sponge, changed the filter on the Jhemco pump,  put Magnum filters in chlorox water, and changed a ton of water.  I'm in the middle of THE BIG CLEAN of the house.  The fish room big clean took a lot of time and I still need to do a bunch of little stuff. 

I thought I'd get everything done by today, but it doesn't look like it.  I'll finish tomorrow and should have time to mow, too.  Then I'll get to admire all my hard work.  I wish that THE BIG CLEAN would last longer.  Having 9 dogs shedding hair and tracking in doesn't help.
Always move forward. Never look back.

I started yesterday after work.  It wouldn't have gotten so bad with the house if I were good at normal tidiness, but I'm not.  I always wait until it becomes a big job, do it, and then let things deteriorate until it becomes a big job again.

So far the kitchen, living room and computer room are pristine.  The human parts of the fish room are about 3/4 done.  All I have left are the sun room and bath room.  The bath room will be a piece of cake.  The sun room won't be hard.

I yearn to mow.  Mowing the front yard and the fence row will be my reward to myself for having made the everything inside perfect.
Always move forward. Never look back.
