Such a cute little pond. Makes me want to get some guppies for my whisky barrel pond. No wait I have no place to put them in winter. :( I guess I will just enjoy yours. :)

I am going to set up a nice tank with live plants this fall inside greenhouse so I have extra room for everybody. So many guppies... I want to separate some of the yellow green ones and breed lots of them. Really happy how it looks and now I have so many people from all over the world interested in setting up a nice little Guppy pond. It's much cheaper to do than a koi or goldfish pond. I used old preformed pond that I have had for at least 25 years. That little 80 gallon pond used to be in the back yard many years ago with goldfish. I think it works much better for guppies and so many people following me on U Tube now. I have almost 900 followers...

Good News Everybody!!! Found my mom the best retirement Care facility in Town!! This place is private care and will be expensive but my mom is getting only the very best cause she deserve it. My brother and me and even the vegan sister are all in agreement. She will have private suite with attendants to care for her every need. Even her toes and nails will get done monthly. There is real peace in the family as we can all relax and know full well that I will spend all her money on her so there will be nothing left to fight over. She will have enough money to live her life out in luxury. When I told my mother that we all wanted her to have only the very best care cause she deserved nothing less, she cried cause she was so happy. This place has chefs and a big kitchen where many chefs work to prepare all the meals fresh. The dinning room is a dream come true. The tables all have pretty cloths, set extra fine. She can order off a menu, every meal, and she will think she is eating out at a fine restaurant. They even have there own bus!

I'm so excited to get my mom's stuff moved and her settled back into her old bed. She can fit her big dresser, big bed, lounge chair and her loveseat, plus her big TV and a few side tables. I am only a tad bit mad that nobody ever mentioned I could get "private care" instead of waiting in hospital for months for Governent sponsered room to come available. I was simply told that she would have to wait in a big line for months for this and that form and wait some more.

Look at this!!! She can even have a pet!! Looks like I can even take my little Rio to visit Grandma !

Awe you should have seen how my Sweet mothers eyes sparkled with happy tears when I told her about her new suite. I am going to decorate that place so nice with some fresh flowers in bathroom. Going to stock her little fridge with wine and beer so mom can invite family for "cocktails" in her private suite, and family then go downstairs to experience fine dining, no dishes to clean, and don't even have to cook. I told her she can have friends come see and dine with her too. Now she is excited to call her best friend Ida on her phone to tell her all about it. Really feels good and mom looked so good tonight, cause she is tired of hopital and needs a real life agsin!

So happy for your sweet mom :happy:
You will have to take pix of her place w/her enjoying it all decorated by you. I don't think they will let you put a cute little guppy pond in there tho :smuggrin:
