J and the boys made productive use of their day off school today and bought some new wildlife for our kitchen. They bought two fish, guppies, who have yet to be named. They also bought a snail. If you're a SpongeBob fan, you know what I named the snail. (If you're not a SpongeBob fan, the name is "Gary", because that's the name of SpongeBob's pet snail. On the show, Gary meows.)
Once the tank was up and running, and Gary and his two fish friends were playing get-to-know-me, J boxed up the cats and hauled them off to their yearly checkup. Forget President's Day - it's Animal Day at our house.

Let's keep things in perspective.

There was a big snow last night for us here; it was probably as much or more than the blizzard we had a few weeks back. Funny how sometimes these winter storms sneak up on you and the next thing you know there's 8" of snow in 12 hours. I did some shoveling last night even though there was a lot to do. I haven't been exercising as much as I should lately, and I tried to make up for it.
We're all doing well here, and I'm keeping my perspective on things, much as the comic above teaches me. We should all be so wise as the Chickens.

You didn't give the sex of the fish or snail, so we won't be able to buy gifts.
Love,
Dad
