Whatcha doing today?

fish ,I got bait quality ones at the koi farm and they turned from the ugly ducklings to the prettiest fancy tail fish ever .I was surprised when the tails kept growing and growing and so did the fins .T View attachment 116134 hey were only about an inch long and paid a dollar for them because they said they were ugly fish .Well they are not now

That’s why I kept the bronze ones. They started out ugly, and ended up a lovely metallic, with long tails. I culled the short tailed, solid orange, and just not pond quality, those are gone. I’ll have a lot fewer, but still need to get rid of quite a lot to actually have a good pond quality with the size I’m going down to.

mine had short tails and some of the babies I have given away that I thought were plain turned out even more beautiful .I have seen them and amazed at the beauties they have become .Seems the people I give them away to have become friends

well here we go again 4 inch's of rain an hour .rubber ducky all ready .got all my grass mowed

We got 3 inches in 30 minutes. Flooded the house. It wasn't pretty

Still looking for a company who will perform the work. I know what needs to be done but he warden is overruling me from doing it myself.

Nice time lapsed videos of the disaster

 

[sissy]

so sorry to see and hear about all the flooding .I live up on a hill and water just runs down to the creek across the road from me

Darn @texmaster that is bad, hope you can fixed up easily

 

[JamieB]

Got this done! I now see I’ll need to top off tanks more often than just for evaporation!

@texmaster sorry to hear of your troubles, had the same issue myself last week. Hope you find a way to resolve the issue.

Too much rain to work outside as planned, son he home with a bad cold. So an indoor lazy day today.

 

[sissy]

headed to my workshop but coffee first and brother sent me the parts to fix the rear door to the explorer .A little piece of plastic holds the pin to open the hatch .My brother sent me a handful .These pins and you have to fit your hands in from each side of the metal and push the pin onto the rod and then into the latch .Could they have made it any harder to do .

 

[Tara]

You can do it @sissy

 

[sissy]

I know I can but the sore knuckles after are bad .Not sure how a man would ever do this .I am beginning to hate fixing things but it does say me from paying some one to do it .85 dollars plus tax for some one to do it .I can use that oney for something else ,like the flea market those fleas are not cheap .The sun just came out and hoping maybe I can get it done .The dampness makes it hard to hold onto the little piece of plastic .Plus I have to figure away to keep the latch in the open position to get it in the right spot .

Darn that's too bad @texmaster Too much water to deal with for sure and what a mess I bet!

 

[sissy]

son is on the phone as someone tried to order 5 thousand dollars of truck parts on his credit card and lucky we have fraud alert .I had problems with my card last week also .So people watch closely because visa and mastercard are saying right now it is bad .,Those are the 2 main cards we have and that he has .They sent me a warning e-mail and it has a code to show it is them that only we know ,but I still took no chances and called the number on the back of the card .With me it was 7 thousand dollars in appliances .I called the company my credit card gave me and sure enough the address was not mine and will call the police now

 

[addy1]

I have alerts on all of my cards, if anything is bought I get a email about the purchase. A nuisance now and then, but nobody can use our cards without me knowing.

Not doing much, felt sick at the start of the week, it got worse then learned it's the flu. I don't normally get very sick so this stinks because I'm tired and bored.
