Have a lovely time in Prague and come back save. Lots of love to you Lena. @Kristoff

Have a great time in Prague. Lots of things to see, explore, sample and savor. I spent a month there a few years back... Budapest, Prague, Kyiv, Vienna, and Baku are my favorites.....maybe Tbilisi too! Enjoy. I love the roasted ham hocks there in the market squares. Ohh, the great Czech beer too.

I went out and got a big burger today. I eat about half of it and threw the rest away. I'm sick of anything fryed. Or chicken, or beef, or fish, or sandwiches, or bread, or pizza, or anything with grease. [emoji855][emoji31][emoji850]
I've been eating rice, toast, broth n water for two weeks, I tried to eat a bit of fried chicken today and I feel like crap LOL. So you're not alone

Lettuce if it don't have tough stems. Tomatoes I can do a little of. But most of the things I'd put in one I can't eat. Blended I can and probably should. I just don't care for it that way. I found i can eat steamed peas though.
I really enjoy making a can of tomato soup (from condensed) and use 1/2 the can of milk and the other half pasta sauce, like sweet basil n tomato, it essentially becomes a tomato bisque, which is very enjoyable to eat. My dad takes canned plumb tomatoes, chills them, slices them (drains) and puts a bit of pesto and mozzarella on top and just eats it like that. It's very cool and refreshing. I honestly prefer iceberg lettuce with a bit of Hellman's mayo for my salads. I'm not familiar with your diet restrictions (DE42) so just some gentle ideas if that can help. Food can be boring enough without restrictions on top of it all.

Been busy with a different project today other than tree trimming. Long story short, I’ve had a Crowntail Betta in a very small 1.5 gallon tank on my desk at work since May 2017. It’s been very happy with very regular water changes, live green plants, and a proper feeding schedule. Along the way, I’ve added a few snails to help keep the tank clean.. (it sparkles). I figured it’s nice to keep it sparkling clean especially since many co-workers stop by to see “Alpha” as he flares up to greet one and all.

That said, I decided to bring Alpha home and upgrade his tank to a 10 gallon “universe.” Bought some nice river gravel, now rinsed a million times to clean the sand from the pebbles, have a proper filter and heater. All set up now and going through a period of conditioning.

Meanwhile, little Alpha is in Sully’s room (our Sulcata) enjoying the sunshine and warmth. Wonder what he will think when he gets to swim from 1.5 into 10 gallons?
I know how beautiful the males are but I've had several females over the years that were real characters !! Although not half the beauties like the males, each one of them loved to be petted, hand fed and learned tricks very easily. I love visiting my doctor's office where they have a 3 foot tall cylinder that's about 10 inches wide with live plants and things and a grand Beta who is a pure showman !! I'm glad the folks enjoyed your guy, sounds like his new home will be great !!

Hey there Kelly. Happy you are back. How are you?
Hello, thanks for asking !! I was terribly ill but I survived, like usual (wink). I was able to find a great home for the tort I had taken in. I'm teary-eyed over it but he's really in a great home. I guess it happened faster than I had thought it would. I had pictured us sitting in a field, my sun-brella n comfy chair, along with a book (perhaps the essays of Montaigne I just picked up) that I could easily look over the top of to check on the tort who would be grazing like a mini lawnmower. I had already gotten a bunch of fencing and already asked the building super to notify me when he would be doing the landscaping. Which is probably many, many weeks away. I earned the raised eyebrow on that one seeing as he was putting snow shovels into his truck that day. I knew I wouldn't be keeping the tort, I have health issues and can never commit to any long term living critters anymore. I guess I was a bit more attached than I had realized. It was the bathing. His daily baths were a bonding sort for us (me anyway). I kept my hands in his running water to maintain temperature and we (uh, I ) would chat, enjoying the sunlight through the window over the sink and the warm waters were therapeutic for my arthritis and he never cringed or cried when I sang. I never have down-time and those daily events were hard to arrange but fully worth it. So I'm feeling ok-ish but looking forward to getting past all this. The multiple antibiotics made me terribly sick. Im facing some surgery soon as my health improves enough for it. Unrelated to my current issues but detected in my exams. I'm scared but that's life per say. I'm glad I'm able to stop by here and participate again. Hugs.
