Our apartment complex is going through a rather extensive renovation. So far we've had our roof completely torn off and redone, windows replaced, our sliding glass door replaced, our carpet torn up and replaced, our front wall cut open, cleaned out, and fixed (apparently there is a design flaw that allowed moisture to come between the outer brick wall and the inner drywall, causing a buildup of mildew...ew! We've had our bathroom exhaust fans replaced, a few bricks on the outside corner of our kitchen cut out and replaced, and there is more to go! Our carpets were done on Monday and we had to box up everything we own and take it to a room without carpeting (bathrooms, kitchen, or basement) to get them out of the way for the carpet layers. Now the carpet is in and looks marvelous, but I have to go through all our boxes and put everything back! I'm using this as an opportunity to downsize. It's taking a bit longer, because I'm emptying everything out one item at a time, choosing whether to keep it or not and if not, whether to throw it away or give it away.
Through all this, we decided to order more seahorses. We loved having them before and have been waiting months to get more. We had a couple repairs to do on our car first, but now that's done and our carpet is in and we no longer have to worry about moving a 45 gallon tank with temperamental fish in it. So here they are: Inky, Blinky, Pinky, and Clyde. The diamond goby we have in the tank is named Pac-Man. If you've ever seen a goby eating, you'll understand the name! We have 2 bonded pairs that we hope will mate soon...I just love seahorse babies!
