    Have they discovered where bacteria magically appear from yet?

    I got an order for Fritz Turbo from an individual, and setting up dropship I input the address and came up with Marineland's campus. I don't know what they did with it, but they bought it, and it was while I was in New Mexico which puts it around December 2003 or January 2004. That computer is...

    Water change killing anubias

    I'll do some dead leaf removal and fertilize. I may cut it in half vertically, no other plants compete successfully with this one

    Have they discovered where bacteria magically appear from yet?

    Did comparisons years ago. Its good enough that someone at marineland ordered Turbo from me in january 2004. I've also tested a heartleaf philodendron, pot, dirt and all (in a nylon stocking for mess control), in a fishless cycle adding ammonia daily. It worked, but i had to stop adding ammonia...

    Have they discovered where bacteria magically appear from yet?

    I use fritzzyme 7 from fritz industries to speed up cycling. Maintained at correct temps and used before it expires it works better than most. If you have a store, you can buy from them. Tell them Everything Fishy sent you

    Water change killing anubias

    I did about a 70% water change a month ago and my anubias has been getting worse and worse since. Maybe i need to feed?

    What are you doing today?

    I am not sure what I am doing today, thought I had a morning drs appointment, it's at 4 pm. I should mow the lawn, hard to finish the garage without selling the door.

    What are you doing today?

    I did fine, I need to sell a 15 light heavy exterior door to get it out of the way before I can move forward, in the meantime I don't have to get in that part of the garage, and it's too heavy for me to move so I gave my helper a bunch of 2x4's for getting the door to the front for me so I could...

    What are you doing today?

    I cleaned out part of the garage, wished I'd cleaned out more, and ran a bid. don't know if it will sell. Then I went to the store and bought liver to cook. It's getting old. Doc tomorrow.

    When a Blessing Becomes A Curse

    I understand. i had liver and onions for dinner today. Beef. 2 days ago it was chicken liver. Trying to build up platelets. Not having enough isn't physically painful but it is dangerous, and I have arthritis in a couple of places but I tamed it down with turmeric for a number of years so not...

    When a Blessing Becomes A Curse

    I wake up in the morning and nothing hurts. I am 65. I am not dead. I want to start yoga but finding time is an issue. I rarely sit down. I find this probably helpful for everything but my feet, but with orthotics, I'm ok

    I've had tufted titmice nest in my pollen substitute feeder. This year it was either Carolina Wrens or Bewick Wrens that grabbed the feeder after the bees emptied it

    What are you doing today?

    Chickadees down here like black oil sunflower seeds, they would like you to fill the feeder, I assume yours may migrate and need to fatten up first. mine are year around Carolina Chickadees.

    What are you doing today?

    Yesterday i went under house and checked foundation, nice, dry and no broken beams.or sunken piers. Today i went to feed the bees and rescued the blue nuc from a carpenter ant nest on top, and about 25 small hive beetles under a bottom sticky board. Got them a screened bottom board and removed...

    What are you doing today?

    Catio is done except for painting and the wood will have to dry out for that. Unprecedented July rainfall. today I worked all by myself.

    What are you doing today?

    I know what the dream was about. I need to sterilize the catio. i have a tank of shubunkin in the middle of it. Now that the walls are down and it's screened bleach fumes shouldn't be too bad, but I think I'm going a different route than bleach.

    my ponds

    these aren't hollywood pics, I just shot a few last week. I think I got one of the back yard pond sans giant iris (which needs divided still but it's rainy today) Fencing over the koi is because of blue herons, I've lost 56 koi in 2 days to 1 bird before. Fence went on that year. I had just...

    I had a dream. I was in the hospital for a short procedure and had to take all the koi with me and put them in the bathtub with water and chlorine remover, then after the procedure in recovery they brought me my pictus cat and said he jumped and we had to put him in a sink in my room, I said he...

    I have a catio. I think needs some rat waste removal and a better door latch. long day. lower shields are for my male dogs, necessary.... strange cedar arrangement is to provide better security at hardware cloth seam, its some cedar that was in the shed. Beauty is not required.

    I get bored easily. In the past I have learned clay, from the molecule up, and sculpted. I'm a terrible potter. I paint, I sew, I've done leather work, I mess around with carpentry and finishes, I keep bees, and not just have bees, treat for diseases etc. i do research and fiddle with things.

    I went to dig up a pond pipe that runs about 30 feet from a pond to an old and very well built gravity filter box, because there was water sort of along its path and the sprinkler guy swore it was the pond. the pond never lost water. so we dig it up, and it's a sprinkler line leak at a bushing...

    Pup pools

    that's why I got my first pool. Now though Cici is 11, and she really prefers air conditioning, Camelo is 13, he just drinks out of the pool, Bravo, the dog on left in the pic is gone now, and Teddy won't touch water with anything but his tongue. Wulfwarro would rather have AC and a lap if he...

    Pup pools

    if bees get in the pool well some of my dogs eat bees. If a toad gets in he's in trouble from camelo. I put it up in august, had to when the peach tree and the dogs and the giardia had an expensive collision because they drink out of the pool. Hard to keep it clean with 4 of them. Cici - dog on...

    I do not have a pension. I will be fully vested in social security in 2 years, at which point i will start to draw on it. And at that point outside earnings won't affect my benefits as i understand it. I am repairing the house now while i can afford the extra expenses
