Hang in there, break is right around the corner!

Including today, 4more work days. And then a stupid dentist appointment full of disappointment. But then a sweet week and change for break

Dental appointments are always disappointing, expensive and never rewarding. What are you having done at the dentist?

What about guppies or other common live bearers? In the future I'd love to have tanks of those again, but I'd need something to do with the fry that don't end up going elsewhere

Yes, guppies are fine, as are the other 'tropical' livebearers. Stay away from goldfish, though.

I'd love to set up an aquarium again someday, but it's difficult without any space! Or running water.

I need to get a dentist appointment, too. I have a fractured tooth that is about to give up on me. Thankfully, it'll be covered by the government.

Why no goldfish? Genuine question. I thought they were bred as feeders?

A cleaning and then likely sheduling for cavities to be fixed. I haven't gone since a few months before covid starting making the news, and with how much certain things hurt my teeth, I know there are at least a few most likely.

I've never had a good dentist experience though, and few good ortho experiences, so I'm just extremely anxious about going in again.

They have some amino acid or something that makes amino acids not as effective if too many are eaten

@fluffycrow how is Cruella and her babies doing?

Good! I don't remember whether I mentioned them flying everywhere, but they are. I know it's not update day today, but I guess I can share the update day picture now. This is their morning/mid-day ritual. I got two more photos today, will probably share those on update day

Okay y'all, I got another question cause it's coming up in one of my stories and I'm not sure how I want to continue on it. I'll even tag @Shabby Chic-Hens for a younger perspective.


Question:
How would you address them if this were you? Father/Dad or Uncle or name?

Situation:
When you were still a very, very young infant, your parents died. Your uncle (father's brother if that matters) took you in and raised along his own sons as one of his own. For as long as you can remember, you have known he is your uncle, but never treated you any differently than his own sons and daughter.
