turpsSpent the day arranging furniture yesterday, and all because of some damn fish.
James decided he wanted a larger tank for our tropical fish. We checked out prices and they're expensive, so he was just going to buy one from his friend second hand. It's the same size as the one we have but it meant we could have more fish. Later, looking in the newspaper he saw someone selling a bigger tank, phoned and was told there were two tanks for £30 plus accesories, which is a bargain. So he arranged to buy it. Which is why we spent *all* day rearranging furniture to fit a bigger tank in. i had to move all the bookcases where I keep my videos and pull furniture around until there was a gap to fit the thing in. James went to get the tanks, then phoned me to help carry them from the car to our house when he got back, I went round and my jaw dropped. The tanks are *huge*, two great big tanks. This is on top of the tank we already have and the one he's getting from his friend. The house is full of tanks just now. I think we'll have to sell some of them though, I want to live in a house not an aquarium.
I was knocked out of bed this morning by the postman at 7. Staggered down the stairs and signed for a DVD I'd won at e-bay and just sort of slumped at the bottom of the stairs before starting to get Corey's uniform. Five minutes later I remembered it was Saturday.
I've also caught James' germs. My throat's sore, I've a headache and it feels like someone is sitting on my chest :( So I'm doped on paracetamol and throat lozenges as we have to go out later to get Kayleigh's birthday cards etc. Have to find somewhere that sells naked men birthday cakes, which'll be fun *g*
Now I've a tank to wash. If I don't update again you'll know I fell in and drowned *g*
