As far as pdf or calibre, i have to look at where i am marketing and see what they support. I don't feel like printing and shipping books anymore. When etsy gets going for art and restored machines it will be quite enough trouble

Nothing fancy. I wrote "Keeping Murphy Out of Your Aquarium" in 1996, it's about 74 pages, simple, covers biological filtration, pH, fish temperament choices, a good beginner's book according to the pet store that was using it to train her employees. There are a lot of very advanced aquarists...

I will have to look at costs

not too hot here this morning and rain coming. Neighbor has 3 ft high johnson grass bordering my yard. they mow 2 or 3 times a year. I am about to cut down with loppers and bag, and spray roots with 30% vinegar I think, maybe put a chunk of pondliner on top to keep rain off and let any sun we...

I think it is high time I got some books ready to go in PDF format and put them out to see if they will make any money.

I get about 2 hours of tolerable temps to water the garden, feed ponds and chickens before I have to run for ac. last year I worked during the heat and I think that is part of my platelet issue. don't overdo is my new motto. today emergency pump replacement, and it is 9:19 and all the stuff I...

I delivered my grandmothers sewing machine to my daughter

the high today here is about 98 with temp humidity index of 107. I am hiding in the ac after I walk my dogs.

I'm tired. have Grandma's cabinet done and ready to deliver to my daughter tomorrow or Monday. I'll put the machine back in at her house.

my cat got out last night. Not sure if he hunted, but he was ready to come in for breakfast this morning, which was a great relief. He waited in the back yard safe from coyotes until I got up to let him in. Pond leak to check today then a visit with a granddaughter, and home

yes, true. the anubias and pothos are surviving in her tank but they are nibbled. Heavily. I lost mine at home in the great neon tetra disease disaster and I have not replaced her. So my plants at home are healthier

if you are delivering or shipping, smoked trout sounds excellent. I don't think they live in our warm water down here

We are going to have a senior citizen POTM candidate, on his 12th gotcha day. I picked him up at Fort Worth Animal Control half an hour before they were going to kill him on July 12th, 2012. Camelo is a shar pei mix, we think with some german shepherd, but he is such a good dog I've never had...

I have a moonlight gourami in a tank i service but she is 6 or 7 years old and not as pretty as she was when she was young

I ran a 'this is not going anywhere" bid, cropped off a hat to one of the kids that went to fireworks, a chair to my granddaughter, and put a customer pump on and picked up my loaner. cooking now

What am I doing today? Figuring out how to get more iron absorbed by my body. The platelet war is back on.... cleaned a small pond, unclogged the filter line on a bigger one

rack and pinion just cost me $189 for the part and $300 for the labor plus 2 tie rod ends. It's pricey

I am sorry you have been thru all this. But I agree with that ornery GP, while you are healing from the SA, take a chaperone with you to the dentist and eye doctor. Just make a day of it if you can and buy them lunch? There is a book I bought for a friend's daughter who had childhood SA to deal...

is it vibrating up against a hard object? I sometimes put a washcloth or other cloth under mine, but check for what is touching it

I took 4 kids to fireworks last night and didn't lose any. Dropped their mom's car at the junior high school and took the shuttle bus to the fireworks. Afterward, massive line to get on buses and only one bus out of 9 showed up. We walked 2 miles back to the jhs to the car, youngest is almost...

Roof finished before it rained. Not a lot of rain but it did cool down.

I have empty tanks and extra sponge filters in one of my healthy tanks so I can set one up quickly, but currently I'm not buying fish so none set up

the garage roof was stripped of shingles (except the hips) and tar paper and got new plywood, sistered rafters and waterproof underlayment. Tomorrow the top roll roofing comes. It's too shallow pitched for regular shingles and the situation is resolved. Now the granddaughter and I must find some...

I've had one grandchild here since Monday afternoon, so no online time. Now I have 3 here and I scarcely see them, although they did come out of the back room when they got hungry. Sushi rolls and tortilla rollups and they have vanished again. They did go outside and count my spiders. Female...

I only have one tank this size anymore. 29 gallon set up January 2022, monthly water changes. Guppies and a female albino bristlenose. Half sand, half gravel, gravel side is air driven undergravel filter. I fed the crypts last winter, time to feed again

how about a secret kill switch? no never mind, they can't pick my truck up but 2 big guys could probably lift the trike

I will like not having portable air conditioners all over. and I made the money to not have to finance it

Having major surgery on house and truck. House getting new inside and outside units for hvac. Truck got a new rack and pinion and 2 new outer tie rod ends. Local alignment shop getting a one star for failing to tighten rack and pinion after aligning and overfilling power steering fluid. Had...

I technically know how to shift a motorcycle. Been almost 50 years since I drove one myself, but even without the heat, in Dallas Fort Worth, it's dangerous enough in a solid metal pickup. And yes the humidity today is horrible, it got to 104 in Fort Worth and the Temperature Humidity index was...

I saw 2 ponds, my truck alignment feels loose, I parked the truck. It hit 104 in Fort Worth today, plus humidity

I had plans and then customers had pond emergencies. going to be 100 here today, trying to get home before noon. I put my hex tank, water, filter, gravel, air pump, sponge filter heater and all including live anubias and some guppies, up for sale. I would not have moved my albino BN but he is...

you know goldfish and koi can crossbreed, and when they do most of the offspring will be black, will get larger than goldfish, but not have whiskers.

Allstate comes in an hour. I need a roof, I hope they find hail damage because either way I seem to have new water spots on several ceilings.

I paid the young man that took the weight off the perimeter of my giant elm tree, got truck aligned to find out the shop that messed up in 2020 on enginework also messed up my rack and pinion, and water changes on all the larger tank. Haven't done the 55 yet, but I am about to. They are about 3...

I think my office got too hot this week, the tank was at 86 when I came in to do their water change. (heater was also still plugged in, I thought I had unplugged). I found his skull and her skull when cleaning the tank. Nothing in there but guppies and anubias now. I think she was also 12, or...

Tell me about it. I haven't had a winter cold enough for a sweater except during snowmageddon and about a week of last winter.

I'm not even walking my dogs this morning. Need to get truck in for an alignment, and they have little enough potty time before the heat is too hot even for grass

My central air contractor's son went in the hospital, so no central, office is 82, living room is 84 F. It will cool off eventually. I have a window unit in my room, portables in the office and living room. Meanwhile bunny is in the house, and there is a fan pointed at my chickens perch. I lose...
