I’m wondering if we could put some neon lights up in here tonight... maybe crank up a jukebox and rack up some balls? I “ustacould” playa decent game of pool and sing some fair karaoke... I’m strictly living in the past with these memories since I haven’t been able to represent myself that way in a long time... but I could really take a step back from reality tonight and pretend for a minute... does anyone ever feel that way.??? Like sometime the world just doesn’t let up and you have to find a way to take a break.. even if it’s only in your own quiet corner for 5 min????
SIGHHHH.
Yes totally. that is when I take out an art project and just loose myself in it. I don't have to think of anything else, just work on the art.

Tonight I think I’m going to have to say goodbye to the very best friend I’ve ever had in my life. My beloved Labrador retriever Jillian would’ve been 16 on September 4. She cannot stand up and I found her with a bloody hip on the floor. It’s so crushing because other than her back legs being weak it’s my same lab...she wants her dinner she wants to play but she can’t walk and she’s in pain. I’m waiting for my nephew to come and we will take her to the vet and have her put out of her misery and her pain and it will be the beginning of mine. I have never loved any pet more than Jilly my punky and I will miss her terribly. Life is going to be much more dark and bleak.
Oh no. I am so so sorry. It is a very painfull thing to do. But in the end Jillian will be in a happier place. A big electronic hug. ?

Well today the super worms, the meal worms and 500 dubia roaches arrived early. I just arrived at work and the courier guy was there waiting for me. How is that for delivery. The dubia roaches are all small though, but I think 500 should be enough to get some of them to grow into adulthood and start breeding.

And to top it off, Ultimate exotics send an email saying that my order has been shipped. So my Crested gecko is on it's way. I am so excited and cannot wait. I will of course share photos, after I get it.

So how are your days going? I hope they are all good.

Bug deliveries are awesome ?
And can’t wait to see pics of the crested.
im sat in my kitchen scrolling through posts on here. Pumpkin eating her greens and affina roaming
Yip.. I can't wait to try the mealworms and super worms with Phoenix. I am sure he will love them. And I think that he needs a little fattening up.

MMMMMMThe kitchen always seems to be the spot to be in.

England,
Wax worms are great for the extra protein. Dragons see them as sugar candy and can get addicted to them. Which is why Affina gets them once a month.
I’m always sat in my kitchen.

We can go out but I think the government are still trying to push the “stay home stay safe” thing and the work from home if possible. Face masks here are now mandatory. And damn I hate them masks. We are now allowed 2 people round from a different household. That’s why I’ve cancelled my BBQ. and weather. Although the sun is shining at moment.

Can I order a Hamiltons gin. The pink one. And don't tell the gov here as they just might lock me up. :eek:
Heap, I’ll fix you up. I remember seeing that’s the governor banned alcohol where you are but our little bar is outside his jurisdiction. The one legged pirate helped me cut thru the red tape so you can drink freely and worry none;-)

Oh awesome!!! Well happy Hump day to you then.. lol It’s not yet 7am here so I’m still in the coffee stage at the moment but I’m going to have a good day! Can’t wait to see the new addition. Have you got a name picked out yet? What are you starting the colony of roaches in??? ( container wise) I would like to have my own superworms I think.. guess I’m going to have to get googling?
