Ants update

Yay, the ants are tunneling.
The only problem is that my son has been so sick this week that he didn't even know we had ants (we did tell him).
We also got 5 new golfish to replace the 2 that died last weekend. You see, our 1 fish that resided in the tank beat up the 2 small fish we picked up last week. We ended up getting 5 fairly big goldfish, hoping that he would leave them alone.
We ended up removing the bully because he systematically went after all 5 fish minutes after putting them in the tank. So much for that idea.
Now we have 19 ants, 5 happy goldfish, one miserable loner fish, & 2 cats.

ANTS

So, I got my ants yesterday!
They're not a very lively bunch, are they?
I can see that this is gonna be another job for me.
Actually, the job is gonna be keeping my daughter from opening the ant farm lid!

Ah. February vacation. Yes, my kids are home for a week. I keep wanting to write to the school board & do away with this particular vacation. Face it, the weather stinks in february. My kids can't really play outside a lot. So basically, they spend a whole week fighting.

Then I talk to the teachers and they all express their gratitude for winter vacation. It seems that the whole school is infected with colds, flus, and viruses and the school appreciates this time to air out.

I'll buy that.
Now, April vacation, that's another thing.
