If you recall, two years ago I wrote about the success I had with my fish tank by leaving it alone. I have had continued success with this policy as I haven’t had a single fish die in the last two years. But you can’t leave it alone forever so a couple of weeks ago I gave it a full cleaning and threw away the old plastic sunken ship and other junk. But keeping in mind what I learned I didn’t go overboard with cleaning the filter so that the bacteria would be able to quickly return to do their job.
While we were at the pet store this past weekend (see below), we bought a bunch of new fish since the tank was fairly sparse. The new fish have adapted quickly and all the fish look like they like the tank and are enjoying their home and each other. I also bought a realistic Greek ruin as you can see in the picture. Think of it as the remains of Atlantis, only with lots of bubbles coming out of it.

As I had mentioned in an earlier entry, Beth was going to get her hair dyed purple. That happened this past weekend and it came out great. You can read the entire adventure over at downsyn.com.

I really like this picture of Michel. This was taken the day Beth got her hair cut.

We took Mikey to the pet store. He had a fun time looking at the dogs. Then he threw his coat in the Koi pond.

All week we had beautiful weather and then it rained all weekend. How typical.

We picked up our new car last night and we love it. It’s a Volvo! When I say “new” I mean new to us. It is actually a certified pre-owned Volvo. I think that means that they certify someone owned it before us. It’s a 2003 with 20,000 miles and we paid half of what a new Volvo S60 would have cost us. This is the first time that I ever owned a luxury car. The only problem is that Michel won’t let me drive it. Our plan is to drive this car to Atlanta in July for the NDSC conference. Hopefully I won’t have to wait until then to get a chance to drive it!

Beth’s hair was so long and straight that it made her face look drawn. Her new shorter style brings out her beauty. Saturday she gets her hair dyed purple.
