And Ciqala is walking much better on her leg today. Definitely not an exaggerated limping like it was before. I'm just happy she didn't injure herself when she was pregnant and had the baby weight to lug around on three legs!

Well our fish died either on Wednesday or Thursday. Honestly I can't remember lol. Back in June 2006, I ran into a friend at our local carnival. She had just won a fish and couldn't keep it (they had saltwater fish but didn't want to deal with a freshwater fish), so she offered it to me. Of course I said 'yes' -- and I didn't ask my mom Fortunately we had some fish before so we already had a tank and filters and all that snazzy stuff. So I brought him home and we had him almost seven years. A carnival goldfish! Crazy fish. He lived by himself mostly. We would buy 'friends' for him at Walmart and Petsmart, but they all died on us.

Kind of crazy, as I was getting ready for work, I was thinking how lonely he must be and how long his days must be being so bored in a fish tank all by himself, I come home and I ask my mom where the fish is and she said 'Oh he died.' Poor lil guy.

We had some carnival fish once. They started out the tiny goldfish and in a year they were still alive and had more than tripled in size. They all died the same week. One day a couple were dead, then a day or so later the rest were dead.
I had a beta fish that survived for 3 years and that was with traveling too. He was my college pet and traveled home with me on holidays.

Yesterday we went to go pick my dad up from the airport. He had been on a tour in Iraq for the Army since February 2012. He came home for Memorial Day weekend, though. But he's home now for good

He's also so excited about having sheep in the backyard Today he went out with my mom and then he just walked through the door and he's like, "Look in the back of the car, I got something for your sheep." Apparently he went out and bought a 40 gallon stock tank and a new 100' hose He even went and watered them yesterday while I was at work. Not that they needed any water though lol. And he even offered to feed them for me when I have to work late! hahahahaha
