More rain almost here and some wind. "April showers bring May flowers", I am hoping that will be true.  But I already have lots of flowers in bloom, more is always better though.  Want to garden but not in wind and rain.  What's up with you all?

Good morning Barb and all. Yes it is raining and as bit windy but the weather map show the rain on the way out into the Atlantic ocean with sunshine coming through for this afternoon.

The coffee was great as usual tho.

...I read last night til 1.30...Revenge by Newt Gringrich... it's the 3rd of a series...geopolitical drama and action...

...just checked the bank account...haven't been stimulated yet...

...going to Homely Depot today to get more hose for the fx4...

...at 3 this afternoon I'm going to do a test run with the club directors on Zoom to work out any kinks in doing a Powerpoint presentation to the club for the May meeting...I'm anticipating a large group with tons of raffle items for the June meeting which I'm thinking will be our next physical meeting...

...looking forward to cereal in a few minutes....
Happy Aquariuming,

Hey Ron, just curious what kind of hoses are you getting from HD for the FX4? I have a FX6 and have access to another one that I think will need hoses.

Afternoon all.  I got up and got right to doing stuff outside.  One scoop of mulch won't be enough, but who knows when I'll get to putting it on the garden.  My back just isn't letting me do much.  I got some plants transplanted but then had to come inside and rest.  It's so frustrating to want to do stuff and have my body say no.  It's gonna rain all day tomorrow.  I guess stuff will just have to wait.
Always move forward. Never look back.

Ron, I'm glad I'm not the only one who hasn't yet been stimulated.  I understand that we shouldn't worry and contact the IRS unless we don't become stimulated until the end of the month.  There's a part of the IRS website called "where's my money" that is supposed to give you some info, but when I typed in my info it came up saying "information not available" which wasn't very encouraging to me.
Always move forward. Never look back.

Barb

My mom hasn't gotten hers yet either.  I checked the IRS website and found out that she will get one by them using her monthly SS info and either deposit into her checking acct or send her a check.  So, if you also have SS you will get it, even if not from the IRS.  Our kids, in their 40's haven't gotten theirs yet either.  But everyone will get one eventually.

That's a comfort to hear, Barb.
