Fish...

We finally got a fish tank! Kurt has wanted a fish tank for as long as I can remember. We've never had the best place to put one though. The old house was so tiny and once we got here - we still didn't have the best place for one. Well after Kurt finished painting the living room ceiling, and the munchkins were both sleeping we decided to take the top off of the hutch in the dining room. It was just a clutter collector. In the old house we had to have it because there was not nearly enough cupboards, but we have plenty now. As we took it off we decided the bottom was perfect stand for a tank. So, what did we do... we went and bought a fish tank! I kind of felt strange, like one of those people who don't think about something and just go buy it. We are not like that. . . at all. We now have a fish tank though! Anyway, we only have a few fish right now, we have to make sure they're not going to die.

Landen is loving the tank and it's growing on me. At first I was being crabby because I didn't like the light on, it's like we have some neon light in here or something, but it's not that bad. I keep remembering our Beta Fish, that just died after about three years. Neither one of us cared for it and we kept expecting it to die everyday. Then when it did die - IT WAS GROSS! I wasn't going to post a picture because we still want to get a rock in there, and of course more fish - but here it is anyway. =) It's kind of hard to tell what it looks like though. *Emily, if one of these things escapes like yours did, it's GONE.*
