  Which is what Katya just told me. Katya is just now getting over a bout of tonsillitis. Poor kid, she gets so sick with that. She's still not 100% but she's getting her energy back. The weather's been nice enough today that I actually got an iota of yard work done.
Although really, if you look at everything I've done so far this year, I think it's more than I did all last summer... I can hardly wait till it warms up some more. Mark and I are trying to lose weight. It's about time, really, for both of us. We're both trying to watch what we eat; Mark is doing exercise and I'm doing Pilates type exercises; and I'm also taking various types of herbal supplements. It's kind of too soon to be able to tell if it's really making a difference, but I sure hope it is. Otherwise it's such a waste! My fishies are all doing quite well. My oldest neon died last week; the monster pleco cleaned up his remains.
It was weird. My sharkie almost got ich, but I gave him some medicine in time to get rid of it. Hooray! My snail has grown. I don't see the fiddler crab very often, but I know he's in there, because every so often I see him waving his big claw. I really enjoy having fish. They're not very affectionate, as pets go, but they sure are quiet.
