Don't give up on me.


It's been a while since I added to my blog. I think my last post was 3-14-10? On March 18th my husband, Dan, had a heart attack and I guess my priorities were redirected. He is going to by fine. I kept saying we dodged a bullet and it was funny that his doctor used the same phrase at the last visit. He also said we won the lottery, referring to the fact that bipass surgery was not going to be needed. Dan does have 3 new stents in his heart though. Add these to the 4 he has in each leg and we could almost make a slinky out of him!

Sadly the aquarium has taken a back seat to everything else. Now we will be leaving for vacation, driving to Utah from Chicago. I can't set up a new tank and then leave it for 12 days. Hopefully when we return my schedule will be back on track. I found some great live rock to add but it has to be mail ordered to arrive at just the right time. My mentor and I have to synchronize our schedules so we can get the time we need to set this tank up. She is a very busy single Mom! I think we should both just call in sick to work one day and spend the entire time at my house playing in salt water. The trouble with this plan is that she is our Office Manager at work so she would have to report us to the boss as slacker employees!

My plan is to have the tank up and running by the end of June. This has really been a long process. Besides the live rock I only have one more purchase to make. I will be ordering on-line, a GFCI circut breaker power strip.

Watch for my update in a couple of weeks.
