Morning All
Nova an aquarium shop / tropical fish store usually carries the sealer that you can purchase to reseal you old tank. seal to fish back home time is usually a day or two. Don't use regular caulking stuff though it can be toxic.
Been very busy here grand kids got here Thursday evening, so our Thanksgiving wasn't until yesterday.
My 13 year old granddaughter made the pumpkin pies while mom was at work Thursday P.M. everything was going good until she dropped the spice jar on the floor. I had been multi-tasking.
She had already put that spice in the pie mix. As she picked up the the jar she said "Grandma this is CHILI POWDER not cinnamon". There went two pies down the disposal. Good thing we had planned on making 4 pies. Left us with 2 for dinner but that was enough.
Our septic tank had also started backing up. I didn't know trying to save money would be so much work. They said they would charge more for digging an access hole to the tank. so I dug it open. Only to find out that it is a TWO chamber tank and they had to dig a hole another two feet down to get to it.
Yesterday was one of those days where I was beginning to pray it didn't come in threes. I was in the shower and heard my GD start yelling for her mom. A log had rolled out of the fireplace and scorched the carpet. I have a fire rug in front of the hearth but wouldn't you know from my GS playing with his hot-wheels it was about six inches from the hearth.
I than had to go to town as my oldest DD forgot to purchase somethings for dinner and I had a b-day gift to buy anyway. We had two grand kids with b-days too.
Got back home in time to see smoke billowing out my front door with DH about a minute behind me. MY OVEN CAUGHT ON FIRE. My DH had been gone from home for three weeks and was welcomed home to this.
Dinner was delayed almost 2 hours later than planned but I still have a house, everyone is OK, Oven still works, and bellies were stuffed. All turned out well. But my adrenalin is used up for the rest of the year!
Going to be about 50 Saturday I think I will wait till then to put up outdoor decorations.
On another good note my hen that survived the hawk attack is recovering nicely, slow but good.
Everyone have a good day!
