COLD DARK ROOM

[Ray--Opo]

I have a filter system that came with the tank. I bought a TopFin and wondering whether or not to buy the same size or a 10 gallon. They say you don't need it for a betta but that doesn't make sense to me because rain would do the same for a mud puddle. I just make sure the flow doesn't blow him around in the water. The size I buy will depend on it's dimensions and the size of tray I can find. Just to make the tank movable if necessary. It sits on my entertainment stand and it's better then tv even with 1 little fish.

I agree watching fish in a aquarium is very therapeutic. I get the same results watching Opo graze in the backyard.

Well...I was thinking...and that's dangerous. The other part of my family were born in the spring. My son will be 42 next month.So I was thinking of a way to sink rivets in tooling leather as a birthday present. Got any ideas?

You mean, something like a rivet tool

Well...when Saphire or Razberri are taking a break I can watch Arrow...his naps are shorter. I enjoy my zebra finches too. It seems like a lot of work but really it's not or I couldn't do it. I just try to keep up the daily things so the big cleaning things go easier. I enjoy watching them so it's worth it.

Yes...isn't it crazy that good leather hand work takes a hammer and nails too.

I was wondering about @Bee62 also.

Hello Ray. I am here. Always a little bit reading but I felt a little foreign here the last time. That`s the reason why I was not writing. Thank you for thinking of me my friend. I hope the swelling of your amputated legs goes away that you can use your prosthesis and that the aquarium will bring you joy and fun.

Yes I've been looking at that one and others online after your post. We have a harbor freight store here so I'll just go shopping with my son. Maybe some decorative rivets also for leather. His birthday isn't until the last of March...but who says I can't do it early. Since we're playing with leather again. We need it.

Hello. I've missed you a lot too...and your songs.

Foreign??? That’s just crazy ! You are part of what make this room great... that’s just a fact

 

[EllieMay]

Good night and sweet dreams all!

Amen. And the same to the other MIA's. Even the people I didn't get to know very well.

Rose was putting boxes up in the attic yesterday until it got to hot.
I really feel useless because I should be doing that. She is a trooper

I am sure that if you could do it Ray that you would be doing it. And I am sure that Rose understands.

Sorry I have no clue. I don't work with leather at all.

Good Morning All. Happy Wednesday All.
My vegetable garden is coming along very nicely and the plants are starting to really take off now. I cannot wait until they start bearing their produce.

That is exciting! All the plants look so good. I am actually looking forward to spring this year and working on Pickles’ Garden

Good morning! I’m being bossed around already. Having to share my coffee and love this morning. She looks so relaxed but if I stop petting, she growls at me ?

Don't forget to post pics for us too. And thank you.

My sister sent me this picture last night and I would really like to make one but I haven’t a clue how to shape stones. You think they just picked out shapes that would work???
