LOL Maybe the pee look is what I'm going for? Heeheee Hmmm I'm going to try it, I like the warmer lights for sitting in the morning before the sun is up but may keep the brighter lights for parties and such. I'll have to try it and see.
Pee colored pond... That made me chuckle Sissy. :joyful:

I had 4 blooms this morning and a few new ones coming up. WINTER BE DAMNED. I will be getting in the pond this weekend to move all the lily pots to the other side to make it easier to scoop the needles getting ready to fall.

OK just watched a show on TV called housesmarts and they talked to a pond builder in NY and all he talked about is emptying your pond power washing the daylights out of it every year come spring (his exact words )We all must be crazy because he says you won't have healthy fish or a healthy pond and won't have clear water .OH WELL .I wonder how many fish he has killed ,keeps him in business I guess because he owns a pond store besides .sell and kill HMMM I don't think I would hire him .

Thanks Sissy, I was working 50-60 hours a week, plus the koi ponds, the farm, the aquarium club, the Koi club, the Koi show chairman, raising kids, and a baby ass, Plus children affairs, grandkids projects, worked on a new Facebook Koi page with afew people to help get started which had a few major political challenges. yep, life got really busy and I spread my self to thin. So I kicked the wife out, quit my job, went to the crazy Dr. and getting my head screwed back on, It's still a little crooked but not on the floor getting kicked around anymore. Funny thing is the wife even came back after I quit my job. LOL

geeze sounds like you have been dragged around the block 20 times on your butt .How did you keep your sanity .Not sure it is good to spread your self that thin and guessing you found that out the hard way .And here I complain about my little hiccups and then I hear what you have been through and mine sounds like a little splinter rather than the whole tree falling on me .Glad you made it through and you can see the clearing now .(y)
