A Weekend Without Daddy



Well Toby and I spent our first weekend home alone without Troy. He left on Friday to go over to Stan and Beaver's house to try and get his white tail buck. Unfortunately he didn't get it but that is only because Stan shot it on Thursday.



On Saturday I took Toby to go take pictures for work and we stopped by my moms house for a little bit. On Sunday we spent most of the day with my mom shopping and just hangin' out at her house. When Troy got home Toby spent some time in his new baby seat he decided that he likes it for now, he especially likes the Watermelon tray liner.



Well today was back to usual except for one thing. The filter on my gigantic 50 gallon fish tank failed on Friday and I had to do a thorough cleaning today because my fish were starting to suffer the consequences. Oh my goodness I forgot why I hat cleaning a the fish tanks in the winter. Instead of just hooking up a hose and a siphon and running everything outside I have to empty the tank into buckets and carry them into the bathroom to empty them into the bathtub. After that I have to Take all of the gravel out and rinse it a few pounds at a time. When this is all done then it the task is to refill the tank bucket by bucket. I think in all it is something like 60 round trips to the bathroom. Anyway it feels like a lot, it took me 4 hours where in the summer it takes only about 1.5 hours. Oh well my fish are happy again and Toby is happy that he can watch them.
