Things are so crazy!
Well, I seem to go through waves of being very involved, and then not being involved at all. lol I am FINISHED with college besides the minor detail of walking across the stage at graduation. I don't have any finals or anything like that to complete...just graduation on May 10th. yeah!
My tanks are going okay, I reckon. Still fighting algae in my 5.5g betta tank. I cleaned it out again today - so it's algae free at the moment. I'm not sure how long it will last though. The plants in it are doing well...despite the hair algae that was on them. And actually, looking into the tank right now (it's on my desk), there is still traces of hair algae. I'll have to pick that out tonight. yeehaa
My 10g is good. Plants are growing - my java moss has almost exploded - growing like crazy! I'll have to get an updated picture of it soon to show you.
So, I reckon I'm back for awhile since I'm not busy busy with school and teaching. We shall see!

I'm actually excited about "qualifying for the right to work for the next 40 years." I'm meant to teach, so teach I will! If I can find a job, that is. lol

Thanks. :) I've been here - just usually signed on to check things out and see what was going on, and then I'd get off again. I haven't had much time lately. But, I'm back.

Ellen, from what I understand there are plenty of teaching jobs down this way.

Well, I was hoping I wouldn't have to move. I love this area - grew up here, and finally my siblings and their families are all here as well. So, I'd rather not move....but I may have to. We'll see.
