Gloomy morn'n...39deg's..dark, windy, and dank.....miserable....

"Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore?
    While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
??Tis some visitor,? I muttered, ?tapping at my chamber door?
            Only this and nothing more.?

...more coffee....more coffee....

Coffee is great this morning. The first part of the day will be great as well then those storms move in from the midwest and it all goes down hill. We went from a drought type of environment to a surplus one in two weeks.  huh wfwf wfwf wfwf

Coffee first. Then, a few hours at the gun shop. Then, a chilly sprint car evening. Cold air makes horsepower. I won't forget that as my teeth chatter. For now coffee's good.

59 here this late morning...and raining outside.....ugh >:(

Putzing here today too....just finished an excellent cup of coffee....cleaning some stuff off an old computer so I can donate it to a charity...I must have had a million photos on it!

The Sterbai's are cavorting all over the tank this morning. More than usual. Funny thing, I see them cavorting a lot in spawning behavior but never any eggs. I thing the rest of the tank-mates take care of that.  Especially the Odessa Barbs.....! However, the Pandas must be better at hiding the eggs, because a few days ago we noticed 2 half grown Panda Cories out and about!!!

Happy Aquariuming,
Ron

...the sterbias will lay them all over the place...under leaves, yada yada....good luck...

I never see any eggs or Sterbai fry but they are surely fat. I know my Altums take good care of them. lol huh

Guess what?  I woke up this morning believing that it was Sunday.  This has never happened to me before.  Thank God a customer called a 8 am and asked if I could get her dog in.  I said. "It's Sunday".  She said that today was Saturday.  After a long pause I said, "It is!"  She asked me if I was OK.  I am OK.  I can't imagine why I woke up thinking that it was Sunday, I just did huh  I wasn't hung over or in any way impaired.  I hope this doesn't mean that I'm loosing it ??? I got myself off my ass and got to work early and did all my dogs.
Always move forward. Never look back.
