It's Just a Tank

That’s pretty funny. I don’t know that I agree with it all as there were plenty of times I tried to get the now 21 year old to push the mower, weed wack, grab a shovel and move some snow, hand me a wrench or two when I was under the car, put on a welding helmet, operate any number of air tools for carpentry or automotive, the list goes on. Unfortunately, it seems I always caught her either going to or coming from a dance class, recital or competition. Competitions, by the way, that I’d have to stop and drop everything to go to. Never missed one. She started dancing, by choice, at age 3. Happy she stuck with it as it pays a decent portion of the costs associated with her going to Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University.

I dropped out of ASU twice...

BTW - she wasn’t allowed to drive a car until after she proved she could change a tire. Take a wild guess who taught her.

Her mom?

We all do what we have to do. No judgment here, buddy.

Ok, now you’ve got me all curious too. A membership for heated seats? What’s that mean? BTW - heated seats have been around quite a while. Caddy offered them at least 15 years ago. I had heated and cooked seats in my old 2011 Caddy STS with a “V” upgrade.

Not sure if it has passed. A lot of car buyers were a bit peeved finding out their 100k+ car was going to need a membership for heated seats. Let me find it.

I had heated seats in my 2001 Seville and my 99 Tahoe.

Ah, sunny still has Un cropped ears, that’s what threw me off. I’ve found Dobies that friends had in the past to be very affectionate. In any case very well put together. I’m a cat person but I do love dogs as well, my grandparents and uncle on my moms side having them .This is my little furball, Mika

By the way, I should point out I dropped out of U of A to get married in 2000, dropped out of ASU and ASU West in 2002 because the market was changing and the majority of the jobs I was looking for after graduation were going over seas and I was working a full time job and my wife and I were trying for kids. I got my City job in 2002 and then went back and graduated from Estrella Community College in 2012 and then graduated from NAU in 2015 - all with a wife, two kids, a full time job working 50-60 hours a week, and lots of volunteer work at my church. I graduated in the top 5% I think, with honors AND a member of the National Society for Leadership and Success.

And now you have that big ol reef tank as punishment for bad behavior.

I keep telling myself to take these doors down and align them...

That would drive my wife crazy. But yeah…..I’d be of the same mindset about fixing it.

That sucks. I think I would‘ve tried to get a rebate/refund/replacement from the vendor. That’s shoddy work for what looks like a fairly expensive stand.

Miyagi is showing growth again. I dont want to bother them.. but we got algae growing on dead spots. Messing with them may lead to recession again. I might wait still.

Its solid wood fortunately. I need to get new hinges anyhow. Project for next week. Im going to fix this.

The tank andcl stand were rather cheap when we got it. I got no complaints. I just keep hoping it holds up.

I’m having a similar issue with a section of my Milka Stylo that had broken. Both pieces still looking pretty healthy but I’m dealing with a few algal filaments

I never could take care of stylos. Not sure why. I think they're wonderfully unique. They've never liked me.

Them and pocis actually are the only reliable sps I’ve tried.
